In another abuse of presidential authority, Joe Biden has snapped his fingers and created an immigration program out of thin air that grants 24,000 Venezuelans entry into the United States. Amid the turmoil and lawlessness that this administration has caused at the southern border, too little attention is being paid to the White House’s abuse of the obscure legal authority known as “humanitarian parole.”
Under the law, the president’s authority to admit foreigners into the country is strictly controlled by the visa process and is set in consultation with Congress, along with the number of refugees the country will accept.
