NEW: Boston based ICE officers have arrested a Brazilian man wanted in Brazil for rape of a minor age 14 or under. The man was caught by Border Patrol crossing illegally into the U.S. in July 2021, near Otay Mesa, CA, and was released into the U.S. w/ ATD (alternatives to detention).
The man ended up in Massachusetts, and in June 2022, he was arrested in Framingham for assault and battery on a family or household member and intimidation of witnesses, jurors and persons furnishing information in connection with criminal proceedings, a felony.
Then, in July 2022, he was charged with multiple counts of threats to commit a crime and violation of a restraining or abuse prevention order.
He has been sought in Brazil for “rape of a vulnerable individual ”, since July 2023, and is facing a sentence of 20 years there if convicted.
On March 4th, a federal judge ordered him deported, and ICE just arrested him in Framingham.
So the guy was caught crossing the border (wait, I thought our borders were "open" and anyone could get through?!) and went the legal due process, then when deemed a threat was immediately found and deported, presumably because ICE was monitoring his whereabouts?
That sounds like literally the definition of a functioning, effective immigration system doing exactly what it is supposed to. Under Biden.
And you're trying to frame it as a bad thing why? Because we didn't chop his feet off and leave him to die in the desert when the Border Patrol found him the first time?
Good grief. He was let in by this administration, and after being here less than a year he was arrested for assault and battery on a family or household member and intimidation of witnesses, jurors and persons furnishing information in connection with criminal proceedings, a felony. Then, a month later he was charged with more crimes.
And, you consider this a good thing?
My goodness - you have low standards.

People like the PP are a prime example of what is wrong with Democrats.
No. Democrats are not a monolith with one view on immigration held by all.
Stop with your RWNJ propaganda.
Name all the Democrat politicians you know of, who are demanding an end to the current Democrat Party Open Border Policy.
The border isn't open. We are still detaining and arresting people. Try again, this time be a bit more clear and a bit more honest and specific.
The above — The Border Isn’t Open — is the usual Democrat Party lie. Even Mayorkas uses it as a standard response. Utterly shocking how they all can say it with a straight face — as if they truly believe it.
If the border is closed, why are there so many illegal immigrants in the US?
Not every illegal immigrant came over the border, and not everyone coming over the border is an illegal immigrant.
The vast majority of those entering are coming in between border entries. Have you not seen the encounter numbers? These numbers do not include border entry gates. So, they are entering illegally.
Oh, and Joe is flying them in from Venezuela, Haiti, Cuba, and Nicaragua. Joe is abusing the parole law so these migrants aren't technically "illegal" since Joe has granted them legal status.
Based on their recent voting choices and implemented policies, Democrats have one goal:
To flood every neighborhood across America with unvetted foreigners from third world countries. Where, or how, they’ll live seems to be an afterthought.
WHY?
Why won’t Republicans pass legislation to fix some of these problems?
This proves Republicans aren't serious and don't actually see any urgency in solving the problem. They are doing their damnedest to keep border chaos the status quo by refusing to help with any of the legislation needed to fix it.
What a load of crap.
Republicans passed a stronger border bill before the Senate got involved. The Senate bill was crap and codified illegal entry and processing of illegals.
Biden is the problem here. Things will not improve until he and his administration are tossed in the dustbin of history.
When the GOP Controls the House, Senate and White House (like it did 2017-2019) it can adopt the House Bill. But in our system of government, when the Houses of Congress and Presidency are divided, negotiation and compromise come into play. The Senate bill reflects that comrpomise with the GOP getting 80% of what it wanted. That would be a "win" under any circumstance for a minority party. But no, THIS GOP, at the behest of a former president, has rejected that win. That tells most normal people watching this, that the GOP really doesn't take the issue seriously. If it were the crisis the right wants to make use believe, then solving the problem ASAP would be the goal. That the GOP rejected the solution tells us not to take their cries of tHe BoARdEr seriously.
Sorry you don't see it that way, but voters who have cast ballots since the GOP rejection, do. That doesn't bode well for the GOP in November, does it?
I don't know where in the hell you are pulling the 80% figure from - probably some talking heads who are trying to deflect from the disaster that Biden has wrought.
The Senate bill wouldn't have come close to "solving the problem ASAP."
The reality is - Biden has the tools NOW to solve the crisis. The same tools he rejected his first days in office.
He won't use them, because in doing so, he would have to admit that he was the cause of the crisis all along.
That is fact.
If Biden "has the tools now" then why did Republicans propose legislation? Not that their legislation actually accomplished anything... "Has the tools now" is a talking point that's undermined by the Republicans themselves.
DP. This is utter BS. Trump was able to use Executive Orders to shape the border policies he wanted. Biden undid ALL of them upon taking office. He, too, could use EOs to crack down on the border, but he claims he "can't." The fact is, he is utterly cowed by the progressive wing of his party. We all know this, so you playing dumb is just not a good look.
Again have you not been paying attention over the last several years?, the courts overturned many of Trump's EOs because they weren't legal, were challenged and Trump's administration lost, and many of them expired when the pandemic declaration was lifted, which removed the temporary Title 42 authority. What makes you think Biden could simply do the same and repeat the same things that the courts already overturned? What makes you think Biden could use Title 42 authority when there's no longer a declared pandemic? Are you really so naïve and simplistic and uninformed to not understand how anything works? You only seen to know what equally uninformed - or dishonest - right wing pundits are telling you.
Explain this........
Why did border encounters go up immediately after Biden took office and overturned all the EOs that were in place?
Are you really so uninformed that you truly believe Biden's actions had nothing to do with the surge that has never subsided?

It's been an objective of this administration, to flood the country with migrants. I don't know why anyone denies it. The numbers and the words don't lie.
During his 2020 presidential campaign, Joe Biden promised a stark departure from the immigration policies of the Trump administration.
He pledged a 100-day moratorium on deportations after taking office. He promised to protect sanctuary cities from federal law enforcement agencies. And he harshly criticized the Trump administration’s treatment of undocumented immigrants at the southern border, asserting that America had the capacity to “absorb people” while calling on asylum seekers to “surge” to the border
NEW: Chicago based ICE deportation officers have arrested a Venezuelan Tren De Aragua gang member who was released into the U.S. in July 2022 after being caught by Border Patrol in Eagle Pass, TX & was arrested last month by police in Cicero, IL for a drive by shooting in the Little Italy neighborhood, then released from custody again, ICE says.
ICE Chicago found him & arrested him on March 11th. He is now in removal proceedings and has already been ordered deported, but it should be noted, Venezuela currently isn’t accepting any deportation flights from the U.S.
An ICE source tells me since he can’t be deported due to Venezuela’s refusal to take their citizens back, he will likely stay in ICE detention for the foreseeable future.

Unbelievable that Venezuela gets to empty out its prisons, allowing criminals to flee to the U.S., enter illegally, commit MORE crimes, but then refuse to take their own citizens back. Frankly, the U.S. should simply fly them back anyway. Leave them on the airport tarmac in Venezuela. We shouldn't have to deal with them for one moment longer.

Biden doesn’t need to wait for legislation to address the border. The authority and jurisdiction for it is ALREADY there and in existence. Just doesn't want to do it and is playing gaslighting games.
Exactly. Not one single Democrat politician is calling for a single change to the current Democrat open border policy.
False. The Senate bill includes MANY changes to border policy. And, it was authored by one of the most conservative members of the Senate. But you've been poisoned against it by lies and false propaganda, like "iT wOuLD LeT 5,000 iLLeGaLS A DaY jUSt WaLK riGHt In!!!!"
Guess you (deliberately) missed this:
Lankford on his reaction during State of the Union address: "I was listening to the President and obviously as he was walking through and I could hear my colleagues around me saying none of that is true. I was actually listening to the President and thinking, no that part is actually true. It [the border bill] would have hired all of those additional agents, would have expedited the [asylum] process [to deport illegal border crossers], and would have also changed the asylum standard… The only way to be able to solve this problem right now, legally, is to be able to change the asylum standard… The problem is the President also left out some of the things he could do. Now he’s choosing not to do. He has a very open parole system that literally thousands of people a day are coming across and being rapidly paroled. He is not actually doing what’s called the last in first up for hearing to deter people from coming across by having faster hearings in the process. So there are multiple executive actions. For whatever reason, the President is choosing not to use, but there’s also legal authorities that need to be done as well."

The PP will studiously ignore this too. She has been utterly brainwashed by her LEFT-wing pundits.
On Monday, March 25, 23-year-old illegal alien Pablo Mendoza was arrested by Enterprise Police and charged with rape in the first degree.
According to a complaint filed in the Coffee County, Alabama court system on the day of his arrest, Mendoza had sex with a fourteen-year-old girl who could not consent due to her being “physically helpless or mentally incapacitated.”
Sheriff Scott Byrd confirmed that Mendoza is in the United States illegally.
