Statement from a DHS Spokesperson on Directives Expanding Law Enforcement and Ending the Abuse of Humanitarian Parole
Release Date: January 21, 2025WASHINGTON – Yesterday, Acting Department of Homeland Security Secretary Benjamine Huffman issued two directives essential to ending the invasion of the US southern border and empower law enforcement to protect Americans.
The first directive rescinds the Biden Administration’s guidelines for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) enforcement actions that thwart law enforcement in or near so-called “sensitive” areas. The second directive ends the broad abuse of humanitarian parole and returns the program to a case-by-case basis. ICE and CBP will phase out any parole programs that are not in accordance with the law. The following statement is attributable to a DHS Spokesperson:
“This action empowers the brave men and women in CBP and ICE to enforce our immigration laws and catch criminal aliens—including murders and rapists—who have illegally come into our country. Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest. The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement, and instead trusts them to use common sense.
“The Biden-Harris Administration abused the humanitarian parole program to indiscriminately allow 1.5 million migrants to enter our country. This was all stopped on day one of the Trump Administration. This action will return the humanitarian parole program to its original purpose of looking at migrants on a case-by-case basis.”
It just depends on whose orthodoxy is being gored, eh?
Quakers vs Trump: Religious group takes on president over decision to allow ICE to raid churches
The Trump administration repealed a 2011 policy barring ICE from arresting people in churches and schoolsKatie Hawkinson
in Washington, D.C.
Tuesday 28 January 2025 18:16 ESTA collection of Quaker congregations have sued the Department of Homeland Security and its new leader, Kristi Noem, over President Donald Trump’s decision to allow ICE arrests in churches.
Last week, the Department of Homeland Security announced it is repealing a 2011 policy that barred Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from making arrests in “sensitive areas,” including schools and churches.

Affirmation of the Friends General Conference Vision
January 22, 2025 by Rashid DardenOn January 22, Barry Crossno, General Secretary of Friends General Conference, a Quaker service organization, issued the following statement:
Since the inauguration, there have been a slew of Presidential Executive Orders that seek to roll back various programs and protections for some members of our spiritual community, for those we love, and people across the United States. This is deeply painful and runs counter to the Truth of human dignity as understood by the discernment and shared witness of our spiritual communities within Friends General Conference.
As the General Secretary of Friends General Conference, I wish to state clearly that FGC’s vision as a religious community remains unchanged.
There is that of God in every human being. As an institution that serves our religious community we seek dignity, equality, and equity for everyone of all races, genders, sexual orientation, and more. Regardless of the positions of any administration, we will continue to listen for the direction of Spirit so that we can continue the struggle towards human dignity and justice for everyone.
All Friends General Conference policies related to gender protections and recognition are approved by and therefore have the full force and unity of our board, known to us as Central Committee. Our prioritization of anti-racism programming, based in our testimony of equality, is the long-standing position of Central Committee and remains so. While we cannot control what is unfolding in the larger world, we can remain faithful to how we are called as a faith community and to one another to the best of our ability.

Some of the responses to Eric Schmitt (r):
What’d you like about him? His Nazi tattoos? His sexual assaults? Drunkenness?
You just confirmed an alcoholic, rapist, who has never commanded anything larger than a platoon to secretary of defense. This is criminal neglegence.
Unqualified. Cheat. Thief. Yet you confirmed him like Trump’s good little boy.
you should be disgusted with yourself for supporting someone as hilariously unqualified as hegseth. truly running this country to the ground
Sir. I am a Missourian and a lifelong Republican. I am also a sexual assault survivor I will not forget your vote on Hegeseth. Shame on you. Nothing I can do about that now, except to not vote for you ever again, and hopefully God will judge you accordingly.
You are now responsible for putting an abusive alcoholic in one of the highest positions of power.
What a joke!
Well with the GOP bar being so low he can stumble and crawl to it.
Eric Schmitt did a useless job confirming the least qualified SecDef in history.
Xi is celebrating [….]
Eric Schmitt YOU HAVE REACHED A NEW LOW- even other Republicans had the bravery to vote against confirmation.
Just f’ing incredible- to confirm an alcoholic, domestic abuser and is the least qualified militarily to be in charge of Defense. All because Trump liked him on Fox.
What a whore for your leader. What an unqualified person. Something you are familiar with.
A drunk rapist. You’re disgusting.
You’re a fuck up. You’re incapable of thinking for yourself and are just a pussy puppet doing what you’re scared into doing. You don’t represent the people of Missouri or this country. You just made us weak. You would’ve done better voting for Frank Burns or Gomer Pyle.

Biden and the intel community have gone silent because they don’t want to tell us the truth about these drones.
The American people deserve answers when Air Force bases are getting shut down.
[….]
What a maroon.
Some of the responses:
No, YOU tell us what’s going on. You’re part of the guvmint. If you can’t find out as a US Senator, what good are you?
Speaking of which, given your innate horror at the thought of Commie Chinese breathing anywhere on the planet…tell us how appalled you are at The Mango Mussolini entertaining the billionaire Tik-Tok commie chinese guy right there in Mar-uh-bloggoh.
The TinFoil is strong in this one.
Hawley is back on Foxnews, his safe place where he feels all warm and fuzzy.
MAGA Greatness. Gaetz, Santos and Cawthorn (remember him?).
Josh is sooooo cute
Like the answers you never gave about your deep,[…] deep involvement on Jan 6.
They are going to try and shut down the power grid and get the predator drones ready to go to the Red Target locations.
Oh, no! We like shopping at Target. Oh, wait…

Biden is ALREADY risking World War III by letting Zelensky fire American missiles into Russia, and now he wants Ukraine to be part of NATO…
The Democrats and neocons’ playbook is a recipe for constant conflict with American boots on the ground—from now until forever.
[….]
Some of the responses:
trump released thousands of Taliban after he lost to President Biden.
[….] releasing thousands to terrorize the Afghan people. Trump set Biden up for failure. That’s just the kind of person he is. You go ahead and keep worshiping him.
[….] hey DF who took credit for the pullout in June before the August pullout… that was your Cheeto jesus.. quote I started the pullout and there’s nothing Biden can do to stop it… who told our enemies we were pulling out and when that’s Trumpie… no military leader would ever do that unless they’re dumber than s,??t… that’s Trump… who released 5000 enemy soldiers before we pulled out… that’s Trump… you’re the DA that needs to look in the mirror
Hawley wants Putin to win.
“Make America Great Again” – in Russian.
[….] Putin rattles his saber and MAGA surrenders.
[….] Russkie toadies gotta toady, I guess.
They should be in nato!
And Trump met with Zelenskyy in France yesterday. Where’s your rage at that, Josh?
SEMO constituent; answer your phone! We want you to make a public annoucement of support for Pete Hegseth!
Heh.
Resign you complicit pandering lying seditious christofascist hack
Hawley is a traitor. Trump is a traitor. Both incited an insurrection on Jan. 6 to over throw our government where 5 were killed and others wounded. The president of Ukraine is one of the bravest men on Earth.
George Will on 6Jan: “The three repulsive architects of Wednesday’s heartbreaking spectacle…must be named and forevermore shunned. They are Donald Trump, and Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz…The Trump-Hawley-Cruz insurrection against constitutional government will be an indelible stain on the nation.”

I’m putting DOJ & FBI on notice: Don’t shred a single document. Don’t delete a single file. Accountability is coming. The Judiciary Committee WILL investigate – and find out who authorized spying on Christians, attacks on prolifers, the vendettas against Trump – all of it

The letter:
December 3, 2024
The Honorable Merrick Garland
Attorney General
United States Department of Justice
950 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20530The Honorable Christopher A. Wray
Director
Federal Bureau of Investigation
935 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, D.C. 20535Dear Attorney General Garland and Director Wray:
I have received reports that, under your leadership, DOJ and FBI employees are destroying records and other documents in an effort to conceal the widespread misconduct that took place under the Biden Administration. You must immediately stop this attempt to evade accountability, and should terminate any employees involved. Further, you must preserve all Department and Bureau documents in anticipation of congressional investigations to come.
Under your leadership, the DOJ and FBI have engaged in unprecedented abuses of the justice system—ranging from the criminal prosecution of President-elect Trump to bad-faith prosecutions of pro-life Americans for peacefully protesting abortion, and attempts to recruit undercover informants in Catholic parishes. This is a sordid track record, and the American people deserve the truth about how it happened and who was involved.
With sunlight now on the horizon, I’m not surprised by last-ditch efforts to stonewall the incoming administration. But those efforts will fail. As a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee who will hold the chairmanship of a Subcommittee in the forthcoming Congress, I intend to investigate your respective agencies’ illicit actions over the past several years. If your staff are presently destroying relevant documents, then the American people will learn about that too, and will learn who gave the orders to do so.
The bottom line is this: you must immediately take all necessary steps to preserve all documents, records, and other materials generated by your agencies during your respective tenures in office. You must cease any bad-faith document destruction. And you should prepare for the real justice to come.
Sincerely,
s/
Josh Hawley
United States Senator
“…With sunlight now on the horizon, I’m not surprised by last-ditch efforts to stonewall the incoming administration…”
Obviously cribbed from a junior high school dance decoration subcommittee report.
Some of the responses at another social media site:
There he goes DEMANDING again… wow…[….]
This will be a big ole nothing burger by the GOP. When was the last time a GOP investigation had any results?
Oh yay more wasted time and money conducting worthless investigations, holding hearings and nothing getting done.
Surprise surprise.
The only ones needed to be reviewed and held accountable are Trump and insurrectionists like yourself. [….]
Hawley, you are a clown with sheep manure for brains. Enjoy your brief tenure, you are one of the many maga cult members who will be quickly forgotten by history.
Resign you christofascist hack

There was much hilarity in the responses:
Glad he came to our small town, but didn’t really pay attention to the people. Did what he had to do and left, don’t blame him to an extent, but would’ve loved to meet him when we were only 10 feet away. [….] we waited on you as well and someone told us to stand in front of you, when we did he took you another way.
Maybe wave your checkbook next time?
yeah, he don’t give a crap about you.
Not surprising. It was just another photo op for him. SMH
2018 Josh Hawley: Criticizes Claire McCaskill for flying on a private jet and not driving to campaign events. Says she’s addicted to her luxury lifestyle.
2024 Josh Hawley: Flies on a private jet to campaign events
Hawley supported the January 6th attempt to violently overthrow our United States Government.
Hawley supports taking a woman’s reproductive rights away from her and her family, giving himself the right to control you, your female children, granddaughters.
Hawley is a Virginian, he should not be allowed to run for an elected office in Missouri. This is what election fraud looks like.
Hawley only shows up in Missouri to take your money.
Wow! Young people who can’t vote and don’t know any better. Young people who don’t ask relevant, tough questions of you. Just another meaningless photo opp. Please resign ASAP.
Butker is misogynistic punk. Wish he was on another team.
He and Joshie have a real (b)romance going on.
really? Dude just comes out to kick field goals.
I would like to know why you think you should have say so over what I do with my body
Literally neither one of you can call Missouri your actual home. Pathetic.
Did you show them the best way to runaway Josh?
Oh GOODY. Did he teach you how to kick? Did you teach him how to SPRINT?
[….]
Do the girls in the picture know that Butker thinks women going to college is a waste of time and money??
Looks like very few voters are even showing up for Hawley’s jet tour of our state.
Get rid of this Christian nationalist!
Allowing the Church and religious zealots to run the world has been tried before.
IT’S KNOWN AS THE DARK AGES FOR A REASON.
Run Josh back to Virginia we don’t want you!
Josh did you tell any of those kids there that if their moms tried to give them a little brother or sister and had a problem pregnancy that you’d let her die?
Run, Josh, Run!
[….]
Poor children
You’re teaching children now to be misogynistic pigs just like you
You guys make a great couple! Congrats!
Ushering in the goddamn Handmaid’s tale. You two make me sick.
“Abort the court”
Josh is the first senator in Missouri history to serve a full term and not bring one single time to the state thereby creating no jobs or no opportunity he is a failure by any measure
Wow…45 people. Wtg Joshy. You really know how to drag them in. How much are you paying them? LMAO
Can’t wait to see an out of towner lose.
Run Josh run
Quit pretending to care about Missourians, you spineless duplicitous carpetbagger. You don’t even live here.
Insurrectionist suppporter, and anti democracy do nothing coward…
You two a thing now???
Josh is from another state. He has no desire to help you any further.
Do a town hall in St.Louis Mr. Masculine. I got a few questions for you.
You have to drag Harrison around to get any attention.
