This year, 700 Venezuelans were arrested in Chicago. Last year, six were arrested. They’re not sending their best, but we knew that. We’ve been warned. Despite warnings, the administration will not close the border.
Despite knowing Maduro is behind many of the single adult men coming into the country, the administration continues to encourage them to come.
Border Patrol agents were warned to be on the lookout for violent criminals illegally entering the country. Several informants confirmed that many Venezuelan migrants crossing the southern border are convicts. They include those convicted of rape, murder, and extortion.
In general, there has been a huge increase in single young males coming into the country from Venezuela.
“At the president’s direction, I spoke to President Hernandez of Honduras,” said Pence, “he told me that the caravan that’s now making its way through Mexico headed for the southern border was organized by leftist organizations and financed by Venezuela.”
Venezuela’s dictator is only one of our many enemies sending single adult men, among 5.18 million single adult men.
