Anyone who believes these numbers is a sweet summer child.
But… these numbers are pretty bad, even if they were the extent of it.
Federal numbers released Friday show that more than 15,000 illegal immigrants currently living in the US are convicted or accused of homicide — with the eye-popping figure made public as Vice President Kamala Harris traveled to the southern border to address her perceived weakness on the issue.
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement provided the data to Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-Texas), who published it as Air Force Two flew to southern Arizona for the Democratic presidential nominee’s second border trip since becoming President Biden’s point person on reducing illegal immigration.
“As of July 21, 2024, there were 662,566 noncitizens with criminal histories on ICE’s national docket —13,099 criminally convicted MURDERS!” tweeted Gonzales, a critic of Harris’ performance who represents more than 800 miles of territory along the US-Mexico border.
“Americans deserve to be SAFE in our own communities.”
ICE provided the data to Gonzales on Wednesday and did not indicate how many of the criminals entered the US during Harris’ tenure as the so-called “border czar,” during which the US notched record-high border crossings for three consecutive years.
Under Biden and Harris, millions of illegal immigrants have been released into the US to await badly backlogged asylum proceedings — after the administration repudiated former President Donald Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy for those claiming persecution in their homelands.
ICE currently is detaining 277 migrants who have been convicted of homicide and 51 who face such charges, the agency said, indicating that those individuals likely are in the process of being deported.
Federal authorities are aware of but not currently detaining 13,099 illegal immigrants living in the US who have been convicted of homicide and 1,845 who are accused of it, according to the data set.
Kamala says she’s going to reverse Joe Biden’s open borders policy.
So, you know – that’s something to look forward to.
