There is a new twist in the ongoing saga of Rony Alexander González Alberto, the twice-deported illegal alien who somehow boarded a United Airlines flight and attempted to hijack the plane by claiming to carry a bomb in his backpack. The Elitist Media have buried this new development just as they buried the rest of the story no sooner his immigration status became public knowledge.Here is Special Report’s report on these new developments, as aired on Thursday, November 12th, 2006: None of ABC, CBS, NBC or CNN reported that the illegal alien United Airlines hijacker gained asylum status after twice being deported by claiming to be transgender- yet another instance of abuse of our immigration system. Fox’s @SpecialReport did. That report below. pic.twitter.com/ol32k09eyk— Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) November 13, 2026 BRET BAIER: We have additional information tonight about the man accused of breaching the cockpit of a commercial airliner while purporting to have an explosive device. Correspondent Brooke Taylor is in New Orleans tonight.BROOKE TAYLOR: New details tonight about the twice deported illegal migrant accused of trying to storm the cockpit of the United Airlines flight claiming he had a bomb. Fox News obtained part of Rony Alexander Gomez Alberto’s asylum application, revealing he said he was transgender and feared being killed in his home country. In his own words, quote: “I’m also afraid I will be killed, either by private citizens or the police in both countries because I’m transgender.” The Homeland Security Department now calling it a blatant case of asylum fraud, believing he falsely claimed to be transgender to gain asylum. The 34-year-old Honduran national was previously deported in 2011 and 2014. But after illegally crossing the border for a third time in 2019, an immigration judge later granted his asylum request allowing him to stay in the U.S. According to TSA, that asylum status also meant he was eligible for a Real ID, which meant he could legally board a commercial flight.JAMES PERCIVAL: When you have somebody like who has illegally come to this country three times, he’s removed twice (VIDEO SWIPE) and now he’s transgender and can’t go home because of that and then, next thing you know, he’s trying to hijack an airplane.TAYLOR: Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin blaming, quote: “a weak asylum system that allowed him to gain the system.” And Gomez Alberto is behind bars right now here in Louisiana. He’s charged with multiple felonies and ICE has lodged a detainer. Bret.BAIER: Brit Taylor in New Orleans. Brooke, thanks.Our own Curtis Houck provided an earlier rundown cataloguing the media’s many omissions as this story unfolded, omissions that continue even now across the dial. But let’s face it. An Elitist Media already uninterested in covering an illegal alien hijacker was always certain to absolutely BURY the story once it became known that the aforementioned hijacker gamed the political asylum system in order to stay in the country.As The Daily Wire’s Jennie Taer reported initially, not only did Gomez Alberto claim to be trans, but he also claimed to be HIV-positive. DHS General Counsel James Percival noted, this allowed him to stay in the country as an asylum seeker. And that solves the riddle of how a twice-deported man is able to board a commercial aircraft.The question that lingers here is: how many more? How many more twice-deported illegal aliens are going to claim to be transgender in order to scam our asylum system? The real story here is one of deceit aided and abetted both by bureaucratic sclerosis, and by a press that has no interest in exploring stories that are inconvenient to The Narrative. Such as this one.
