We no longer use the term ‘illegal alien’, says the DHS secretary of the ‘illegal’ Biden administration

Oops. “Non-President” Biden administration.

Just The News: Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Thursday the Biden administration has stopped using the term “illegal alien,” replacing it with “non-citizen.”

Mayorkas said the administration has changed the way the government previously handled migration, citing the elimination of “illegal alien” as an example. 

“We have changed the language that we use to refer to migrants who arrive in the United States and seek relief and who do not yet have lawful presence,” Mayorkas said during a “Newsmakers” event organized by the National Press Club.

“We do not use the term illegal alien unless we are referring to that defined term in the statute itself, whether we are quoting from the statue or referring directly to it. We use the term non-citizen,” he also said. more

  1. When Mrs. RMM is in the United States, she is a non-citizen. When we are in Canada, I am a non-citizen.

    Someone illegally sneaking across the border into a country is an illegal alien.

  2. So at the southern boarder anyone can cross illegally and generally be treated MUCH BETTER than if I, with passport in hand, tried to head down to Texas to stuff my face for 2 weeks with BBQ, Bourbon, & buy a $2000 pair of Boots!

    The rEsident Biden government must be terrified of Assault Hockey Sticks & Cuban Cigars!
