This comes after \u2062a &#8220;bombshell&#8221; report by the Washington Examiner exposed the flaws in the system.<\/p>\n<p>Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) stated\u2064 that the committee would incorporate the Examiner&#8217;s report into their ongoing investigation of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro \u2062Mayorkas.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;According to \u2063this week&#8217;s bombshell report, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/watch-the-situation-is-completely-unstable-crenshaw-tours-the-southern-border\/\" title=\"WATCH: \u2018The Situation Is Completely Unstable\u2019: Crenshaw Tours The Southern Border\">drug cartels<\/a> have seized on the newest iteration,&#8221; Green said. &#8220;President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas have provided cartel organizations more innovative ways to evade our laws, rake in money from human and drug trafficking, and wreak havoc in \u200bour country. Homeland Republicans will \u2062be looking into these recent developments, and Secretary Mayorkas\u2019 continued,\u200b willful ignorance of cartel strategies, in our ongoing investigation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Exploiting the Immigration Program<\/h3>\n<p>The Mexican government is allowing immigrants who\u200b enter the country from Guatemala to \u200dcontinue their journey to the United States border\u200b if they have obtained an appointment on\u2062 the U.S. \u200dCustoms and Border Protection&#8217;s phone application. However, Mexican cartels have\u2064 found a way to exploit \u200dthe app&#8217;s security and request appointments from anywhere in the \u2063world, surpassing the app&#8217;s intended &#8220;northern Mexico&#8221; \u2062geofence.<\/p>\n<p>An extensive \u2064investigation, including a review of internal DHS documents and communications, revealed that\u2063 Mexican cartels \u2064are selling the use of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mexican-cartels-exploit-us-governments-cbp-one-app\/\" title=\"Mexican cartels exploit US CBP One app.\">virtual private\u200d network<\/a> (VPN) to\u200d hide the location of immigrants when they request an appointment.
