Biden Picks Cuba-Born Immigrant To Lead Homeland Security

In this file photo taken on October 17, 2015 Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas speaks onstage during Festival PEOPLE En Espanol 2015 presented by Verizon at Jacob Javitz Center in New York City. Brad Barket / AFPUS President-elect Joe Biden signalled a sharp reversal Monday from Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant policies with the choice of Cuba-born Alejandro Mayorkas to lead the Department of Homeland Security.

Mayorkas will be the first immigrant himself to lead the sprawling DHS bureaucracy, whose mission is focused firstly on protecting the country from terror and cyber-attacks and natural disasters.In a tweet, Mayorkas pointed to his own history as a refugee as shaping his view of the job. But it also assumed controls of borders and immigration enforcement, disaster management, cybersecurity, and air and sea transportation security.

He also had DHS’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, known as ICE, step up raids on illegal immigrants, deporting thousands as Trump sweepingly branded all of them “gang members,” “drug smugglers” and “rapists and murderers.”Meanwhile, Trump took aim at DHS officials who dared to undermine his political agenda, including those who said the leading US domestic threat was from extreme-right white nationalist and neo-Nazi ideologues, and not from the left as Trump claimed.
