DHS contractor condemns Biden migrant flights: 'Betraying the American people'

Federal contractors in newly released video criticized the Biden administration for flying migrants released from the southern border into New York in operations meant to be hidden from the public, with one saying the government was betraying the country.

The employees vented to a Westchester County, New York, police officer who was on the scene one night last August as planes touched down and migrants were loaded onto buses that dispersed them across the Northeast, according to police body camera footage obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request by Republican gubernatorial candidate Rob Astorino and shared with the New York Post.

Police Sgt. Michael Hamborsky walked around the tarmac looking for information about why a Boeing 737 flew in from Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas, several hours earlier with 142 people on board who had been released after illegally crossing the southern border. Charter buses operated by the subcontracted company, American Dream, were delayed in arriving.

“You’re on a secure facility here. We really don’t know anything, and we’re in charge of security,” Hamborsky told one of the dozen federal contractors after asking who was on the flight and what the workers were doing.

The workers repeatedly told the police sergeant that they were not allowed to show him their company identification or discuss their work. One worker said the Department of Homeland Security and the Army were overseeing the operation and that the DHS "wants everything on the down-low."
