Remember when Kamala told you the border was secure? Well…
In a letter to Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales on Friday, ICE revealed a shockingly high number of illegal migrants with murder and rape convictions are currently roaming the country.
From Fox News:
The agency provided data to Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, about national data for illegal immigrants with criminal charges or convictions. The data, as of July 2024, is broken down by those in detention, and those who are not in detention — known as the non-detained docket. The non-detained docket includes illegal immigrants who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not detained in ICE custody. There are currently more than 7 million people on that docket.
The data says that, among those not in detention, there are 425,431 convicted criminals and 222,141 with pending criminal charges.
Those include 62,231 convicted of assault, 14,301 convicted of burglary, 56,533 with drug convictions and 13,099 convicted of homicide. An additional 2,521 have kidnapping convictions and 15,811 have sexual assault convictions.
There are an additional 1,845 with pending homicide charges, 42,915 with assault charges, 3,266 with burglary charges and 4,250 with assault charges.
Gonzales shared the report on X, saying “Americans deserve to be SAFE in our own communities.”

In a statement accompanying the letter, ICE took aim at so-called “sanctuary” cities.
“ICE recognizes that some jurisdictions are concerned that cooperating with federal immigration officials will erode trust with immigrant communities and make it harder for local law enforcement to serve those populations. However, ‘sanctuary’ policies can end up shielding dangerous criminals, who often victimize those same communities,” it said.
Kamala Harris is visiting the southern border on Friday in what many are calling a cheap photo op to create the appearance she’s addressing the crisis with just 38 days until the presidential election.
Former President Donald Trump says Harris should go back to the White House and tell Joe to close the border; “[Kamala] should save her airfare. She should go back to the White House and tell the President to close the border.”
