President JoeBiden's border woes show no signs of abating as Republicans take House
Illegal border crossings have soared since President Joe Biden took office, reaching a record 2.76 million in fiscal 2022, which topped the previous record by more than 1 million. Now, U.S. air marshals are planning to stage an open rebellion against Biden over a plan they say would strip 99% of commercial flights from federal protection ahead of the holidays.
The overseeing agency, the Transportation Security Administration, said in a statement that the claims of air marshals doing menial tasks are"entirely inaccurate and does not reflect the critical and professional law enforcement role these officers perform." "It demonstrates that the Department of Homeland Security is running out of employees to send to the border to support the administration’s open border policies," she said."This border crisis is unsustainable — both for American communities but also for DHS employees. The Border Patrol has reached a historic number of agent suicides during this administration.
"The president has secured record levels of funding for the Department of Homeland Security," said Jean-Pierre."We have over 23,000 agents working to secure the border. We've taken thousands of smugglers off the streets, and we're cutting down on asylum processing times."

GOP's new committee leaders prepare blitz of investigationsHouse Republicans are promising aggressive oversight of the Biden administration once they assume the majority next year, with a particular focus on the business dealings of presidential son Hunter Biden, illegal immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border and the originations of COVID-19. Republicans won't have enough votes to advance key legislative priorities if there is no Democratic buy-in, but their oversight of government agencies could put Democrats on the defensive and dampen support for the Biden administration going into the 2024 presidential elections. Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, is expected to serve as the next chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.
