In just a few months, the Trump administration brought illegal border crossings to a record low, while removing thousands of criminal illegal aliens. But stopping and catching illegals is only one part of cleaning up the mess left by Biden. There are also criminal migrants who have been granted legal status in the U.S. The latest example is two young men arrested for firing shots at a youth baseball game in Katy, leaving a coach wounded. The suspects were each allowed to enter and stay in the U.S. despite red flags that should have been vetted---one was from Lebanon, a country with known ties to terrorism, and the other had prior arrests for drug possession.
This is an issue that will likely continue to rear its head, despite Trump's border crackdown. "Of the nearly 10 million illegal aliens that crossed the border during the Biden administration, about half were released with just a notice to appear, with no way to track or figure out where they went and who they are," says Bob Price, editor at Breitbart Texas. "So these people are now scattered all over the country, and that is why ICE agents are out trying to track them down."
Despite the rapid results at the border, finding and rooting out both illegal and "legal" migrants who are committing violence across the country will be much more difficult and time consuming. "Trump has made tremendous progress (on the border) in terms of stopping the bleeding, but now we've got to go back and triage the damage," says Price. "That means finding who these people are who were released by the Biden administration, and were given free passes to move about the country."
