What happened

A leaked internal Department of Homeland Security memo revealed that the Biden-Harris administration planned to dismantle border enforcement measures right before Donald Trump took office, deliberately setting up a massive immigration surge for the incoming administration.

The brief

Dismantling border security on the way out the door isn't policy transition; it's a controlled demolition of national sovereignty designed to ensure the successor fails, regardless of the cost to the public.

The sides

  • Outgoing Administration Officials

    The planned policy shifts were standard humanitarian adjustments to wind down restrictive executive orders before a transition.

  • Incoming Trump Team

    The memo is proof of a deliberate, partisan sabotage campaign designed to trigger an immediate national security crisis on day one.

Why now

Why now. The story is driving massive engagement across social platforms and conservative media, sparking a wider debate about deep-state accountability and the weaponization of federal transitions.
