DHS Inspector General Report Alleges Biden Administration Inaction on Alien Overstays Posing National Security Risks

A report by the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) Office of the Inspector General (OIG) has revealed that the Biden Administration took minimal action on over 3 million leads regarding alien overstays between Fiscal Years 2021 and 2024. Of these, more than 100,000 were identified as potential national security and public safety concerns, yet only 496 investigations were launched, leading to just eight arrests. DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin criticized the findings, calling the inaction a 'dereliction of duty' that 'needlessly put American lives at risk'.
