When the Biden-Harris administration took office, they pledged to focus immigration enforcement on criminal aliens, rather than on “ordinary” illegal immigrants.
The result? More criminal migrants than ever before!
ICE recently released data showing that there are more than 600,000 foreign criminals on ICE’s docket who are not in the agency’s custody. Some are probably in state or local jails, but hundreds of thousands are walking our streets.
Is anyone surprised?
Remember, this is the administration that announced a 100-day moratorium on all deportations — criminals, terrorists, anybody — the day it took office.
It hasn’t gotten much better since.
My colleague Jon Feere, a former ICE chief of staff, compared criminal deportations in the first three years of this administration and the previous one. The results are sobering. Under Biden-Harris:
- A 44% drop in the number of notifications by ICE to local cops to hold criminal aliens arrested in local charges — called “detainers.”
- A 57% drop in the number of criminal aliens arrested compared to the first three Trump years.
- And a whopping 67% drop in the number of criminals actually deported.
Getting the idea?
It’s time to deport Harris/Waltz with them.
