Miller’s post came in response to one from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that claimed that one of the suspects accused of ambushing and shooting an off-duty U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer in New York City Saturday entered the country illegally in 2023 under the Biden administration.
According to DHS, Miguel Francisco Mora Nunez illegally entered the U.S. in April 2023, and authorities issued a criminal warrant for him for armed robbery with a firearm in February.
Biden signed multiple executive orders pertaining to immigration, including the Keeping Families Together initiative that would have provided a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants married to U.S. citizens. A federal judge struck down the order in November 2024, asserting that the order violated U.S. immigration law.
When asked which specific orders Miller was referring to, the White House did not specify, but said Biden employed the autopen to all aspects of the presidency.

Biden’s alleged use of the autopen has primarily attracted attention for a wide swath of pardons he issued toward the end of his term, including a series of preemptive pardons on his final day to officials like former chief medical advisor to the president Anthony Fauci and former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley.
Multiple investigations are ongoing evaluating Biden’s alleged use of the autopen while in office, including the House Oversight Committee’s probe on the cover-up of Biden’s mental decline and potentially the unauthorized use of the autopen for pardons and other executive orders during his term.
