Members of Congress are accusing Joe Biden’s Health and Human Services secretary, Xavier Becerra, the pro-abortion former attorney general in California, of concealing the gang affiliations of illegal aliens who are minors and are caught committing serious crimes.
Officials with the House Judiciary Committee have subpoenaed him for the case files of “unaccompanied alien children who have been charged with committing crimes while in the United States after being released by HHS.”
Rep. Jim Jordan,R-Ohio, the chairman of the committee investigating those crimes and criminals, said the committee had requested some HHS case files for criminal aliens “charged with serious and violent crimes.”
Those charges included offenses like theft, brutal assault and murder.
The committee, since June 2023, has followed up on its requests on several occasions and tried to engage with HHS in good faith, but officials in Biden’s agency have “stonewalled” members and “baselessly” withheld case files.

“As an extraordinary accommodation to HHS, the committee agreed to review the case file materials in camera but when committee staff members started going through the paperwork, “It became clear that HHS had applied pervasive redactions to the documents.”
“Across multiple case files, HHS redacted information about whether specific UACs had ‘identifying scars, marks, or tattoos’ – information that can be indicative of gang affiliations,” the congressional committee reported.
“Worse, HHS went so far as to redact information explicitly requested by the committee, including information shared with HHS by other agencies and immigration case history information.”
That means, the committee confirmed, the information provided to Congress was “all but useless.”
And that obstructed the investigation, the report said.
Jordan’s letter to Becerra explained the information is needed for Congress’ constitutionally ordained oversight of the HHS.
It’s needed because HHS has released into the U.S. unvetted UACs, who … committed heinous criminal acts.”
The letter notes there is “not constitutional or legal basis” for the information to be withheld.
Court rulings have “been clear that “Congress’s power to legislate includes the authority to acquire information to inform such legislation,” it explained.
WND SPECIAL REPORT – “IT’S TRUMP VS. SWAMP PSYCHOPATHS”: From the Biden administration’s enthusiastic support for amputating body parts of troubled children, to its obsession with bringing as many millions of illegal aliens, terrorists and Chinese soldiers as possible into America, it is increasingly clear that many of this nation’s current leaders are, to put it plainly, stark raving mad.
Indeed, psychiatric experts are finally documenting how the symptom profiles of scary conditions like “Borderline Personality Disorder” and “Narcissistic Personality Disorder” PERFECTLY MATCH today’s top leaders.
One groundbreaking peer-reviewed study published in 2023 documents how left-wing extremism is closely associated with “psychopathic tendencies.” Likewise, retired psychiatrist Brad Lyles, M.D., explains how “one way of understanding the increasingly outlandish beliefs and behaviors of the left is through the lens of Borderline Personality Disorder.” And one of America’s top forensic psychiatrists, Lyle Rossiter, M.D., described Barack Obama’s mental state as “Malignant Narcissistic Personality Disorder.”
Consider a typical description of sociopathy: “Sociopaths are often well-liked because of their charm and high charisma, but they do not usually care about other people. They think mainly of themselves and often blame others for the things that they do. They have a complete disregard for rules and lie constantly. They seldom feel guilt or learn from punishments.” Remind you of anyone?
From Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to their presidential Cabinet – including Attorney General Merrick Garland, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra – all of these people “have a complete disregard for rules and lie constantly.”
But it’s not just Democrat leaders. Multiple surveys now show how rank-and-file Democrats are TWICE as likely to be diagnosed with a mental disorder as Republicans – from depression to bipolar disorder to schizophrenia to narcissistic personality disorder. All this and much more is stunningly laid out in the March edition of WND’s critically acclaimed Whistleblower magazine, “IT’S TRUMP VS. SWAMP PSYCHOPATHS.” Don’t miss it – you will see the whole political-cultural-spiritual war raging in the U.S.A. in a whole new light.
