The Trump administration is revoking the parole of thousands of immigrants who they have found to have criminal records or to be on the FBI’s Terrorist Screening Center watchlist, a senior White House official told the Daily Caller.
Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) has identified 6,300 individuals who were paroled into the United States since 2023, during the Biden administration, but are on the FBI’s Terrorist Screening Center or have a criminal record, a senior White House official shared with the Caller. The source was granted anonymity to discuss the details not yet announced. Every individual CBP identified is having their parole, which gives them benefits such as work authorization, stripped immediately, the official told the Caller.

“Among the 6.3k paroled aliens with criminal or terrorist records, 905 were collecting Medicaid (including 4 on the terrorist watch list). $276,000 was paid out,” the official shared with the Caller, adding that all had Social Security numbers. “41 were collecting Unemployment Insurance, receiving $42,000 in benefits. 22 received federal student loans totaling $280,000.”

Other immigrants granted parole under the Biden administration have also had their benefits stripped by the Trump White House. In March, termination notices started being delivered to hundreds of thousands of migrants who entered the United States through a fraud-ridden parole program launched by the Biden administration. The program, CHNV, was terminated by the Trump administration last month.
Under the initiative, half-a-million migrants were flown in from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela over the past several years.
“They allowed more than half a million loosely vetted aliens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela and their immediate family members to enter the United States through these disastrous parole programs; granted them opportunities to compete for American jobs and undercut American workers; forced career civil servants to promote the programs even when fraud was identified; and then blamed Republicans in Congress for the chaos that ensued and the crime that followed,” a senior DHS official previously said of the announcement.
