Democrats are targeting ICE funding after the shooting but the cost will be high

NEWNow you can listen to Fox News articles!
House and Senate Democrats are trying to reverse the state’s two tragic shootings in Minneapolis that caused the arrests of celebrities, backtracking and slashing ICE’s budget. But let’s not pretend this political firestorm is about compassion or accountability.
If the Democrats succeed in suddenly halting the deportation of these other estimates that put about 20 million illegal aliens imported under President Joe Biden, hundreds of American citizens will be killed and thousands will be raped, beaten or stolen by a violent group of the illegal Biden party.
Here’s the math story behind America’s latest true crime nightmare.
Many studies have analyzed the connection between illegal immigration and crime. Using large sets of administrative data, researchers have calculated – with surprising accuracy – the rates at which illegal aliens commit various crimes. From those numbers, it is simple arithmetic to estimate how many Americans may be victims of new illegal violence.

Start by killing.
The Cato Institute examined the largest and most reliable data set available, taken from the Texas border region, and found that for every 100,000 illegal aliens, about 2.2 Americans are killed. Using essentially the same Texas data, the Center for Immigration Studies adjusts for delayed identification and other methodological problems and arrives at a homicide rate of about 3.9 per 100,000 in one reporting year.
Apply those numbers to Biden’s 20 million new illegal aliens, and the result is clear: between 440 and 780 more Americans will be killed.
DAVID MARCUS: YES, EVEN WHITE, ILLEGAL IRISH IMMIGRANTS SHOULD BE DEPORTED
That is not a calculation. That’s a butcher.
Former victims already have names.
Laken Riley, 22, was killed in Georgia after prosecutors say she resisted a rape attempt by José Ibarra, a Venezuelan immigrant who was released after being arrested.
WEEKEND MOMENT: REPRESENTATIVE KILLERS, CHILD SEX ABUSERS AMONG LAWLESS WITNESSES CONVICTED IN CASE
Jocelyn Nungaray, 12, strangled to death in Houston in June 2024. Two Venezuelans – Johan Jose Martinez-Rangel and Franklin Jose Peña Ramos – are charged with murder. Both entered the United States illegally, were arrested near El Paso, Tex., and were released with notices to appear before execution. They remain in the Harris County jail awaiting trial, and prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.
Rachel Morin, she was raped and killed on the way to Maryland by Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez from El Salvador.
Apply those numbers to Biden’s 20 million new illegal aliens, and the result is clear: between 440 and 780 more Americans will be killed.

And the assassination is just the tip of the iceberg of Biden’s illegitimacy.
According to a National Institute of Justice-funded study published in 2020 using Texas Department of Public Safety arrest data (2012-2018), the arrest rates for 100,000 undocumented immigrants were 11.3 for sexual assault, 77.8 for sexual assault, and 18.13 for burglary and drug offenses. violation.
MICHAEL SHELLENBERGER: PEOPLE ARE KILLED ON THE LEFT
There are approximately 20 million illegal aliens, that statistics means about 2,260 more Americans will be sexually abused, 3,640 Americans in American homes, 15,560 Americans have been violently abused, 27,200 27,200 drug arrests involving dealers, traffickers, and serious crimes.
These are the kinds of statistics that disturb Hill residents like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, DN.Y., and Democrat Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar and politicians like Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, Illinois Democrat Gov. I don’t want you to see.
As a misunderstanding, the left also likes to point out that many studies conclude that crime rates among illegal aliens are slightly lower than those of American citizens. But that is the wrong distance.

Even though illegal aliens have a low crime rate – and the data is not clear – when millions of illegal aliens enter the country, the overall crime rate increases. You don’t need to be a mathematician – or the victim of an anonymous crime – to understand that.

There’s also this: the old data sets used by many analysts today almost completely underestimate the danger posed by the latest wave of the Biden era. Why?
Because countries around the world like Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela have deliberately opened their prisons and released violent criminals during the recent crackdown – both to reduce crime at home and to send crime to America.
DEAN PHILLIPS: WE CAN FIX IMPORTS WITHOUT BLESSING THE FISHERS OR BEING ILLEGAL
That’s the math. This is politics.
The strange coalition of bedfellows that emerges from ICE is led by Democrats playing the long game of elections who view illegal immigrants as political pawns and are funded by corporate interests that benefit from cheap labor and wage suppression. Throw in drug and human trafficking supply chains and a legacy media blinded by Trump Derangement Syndrome, and you have today’s government shutdown crisis.
