> [@snowthx](#): > > A quick way to get the skinny on B.S. like this is Snopes: Your cite does not address the op’s question about flying undocumented immigrants at night. the OP’s question is probably being driven by stuff like this: [Psaki Confirms Illegal Immigrants Being Flown to New York in Dead of Night](https://news.yahoo.com/psaki-confirms-illegal-immigrants-being-185839952.html) Psaki confirmed the _[New York Post](https://nypost.com/2021/10/18/biden-secretly-flying-underage-migrants-into-ny-in-dead-of-night/)’_ s reporting that unaccompanied children were flown into Westchester County Airport and said they were “en route to their final destination to be reunified with their parents or vetted sponsor.” Psaki’s acknowledgement comes one day after the report detailed how the administration had been flying underage illegal immigrants to New York late a night for more than two months in an effort to resettle [the tens of thousands of migrants](https://www.nationalreview.com/immigration/) taken into custody at the border in recent weeks. ---

> [@turtlescanfly](#): > > Please give me the Straight Dope. I have heard from more than one person that President Biden has been secretly flying in entire planes full of undocumented, unvaccinated persons and dropping them off under cover of night for…some reason, not really clear. Hopefully, you are making a list of people you should not listen to in the future. ---

> [@Magiver](#): > > Mine was a reference to the White House Press Secretary’s confirmation of the story. Apologies if that was mentioned. The White House Press Secretary _confirmed_ they were secretly **flying in** entire planes full of undocumented, unvaccinated persons and dropping them off under cover of night? 'Cause, as you should be capable of understanding, that’s not the same as confirming they were **flying from** one state to another state. ---

I look at it this way: if Biden really wanted to sneak people in as the OP suggested without anyone knowing, he could do it easily. The fact that “someone” found out makes it much more unlikely (not that I believed it). ---

Why YES! And not what’s being clearly implied, flying immigrants ~~from~~ over the border. ---
