30 Countries Are Refusing To Take Back Illegal Immigrants Convicted Of Serious Crimes
Daily Caller ^ | 3.18.2017 | Russ Read

Posted on 03/19/2017 3:23:50 PM PDT by Freedom56v2

Approximately 30 countries are refusing to accept the deportations of illegal immigrants who have committed serious crimes in the U.S., according to Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar.

While these countries are refusing to accept the deportations of these criminals, the U.S. government is still issuing visas and student visas to citizens of those countries, according to the Texan congressman. There is already a law on the books which allows the U.S. to hold visas from a country that is not taking back its criminals, but according to Cuellar, the U.S. is not enforcing it.

“We’re not enforcing it, which is amazing. So now my intent is to go back to our committee on appropriations and affect their funding until they do that,” Cuellar told Sharyl Attkisson, host of Full Measure, in an interview.

Cuellar, a Democratic member of the House Committee on Appropriations, told Attkisson that the Supreme Court has ruled that illegal immigrants arrested for criminal activity can only be held for a certain period of time before they must be released.

“That means you’re releasing criminals into our streets because those countries refuse to take back those criminal aliens,” said Cuellar. “That’s wrong. And especially I think it’s even worse that this is already on the books, and we’re still issuing business tourist visas and student visas to countries that refuse to take back their criminal aliens. That’s wrong, and we’re hoping to change that.”

There are many foreign countries that refuse to retake illegal immigrants convicted of crimes, according to the congressman, including Vietnam, Cuba and China. Cuellar said that diplomacy plays a factor in the government’s refusal to enforce the law, as the Department of State and other federal agencies do not want to upset foreign partners.

I recognize a new day when there are more jobs and more hiring in this miserable Texas oil economy.

Most of them—WHEREVER THEY COME FROM—came in through Mexico or somebody’s airline.

If Mexico: out at gunpoint thru a hole in the fence to good ‘ol Mehhicco.

If an airline: out on their next plane to WHEREVER it is going.

according to cuellar the visas are denied if the country doesn’t take back the criminals. it closes the visa system down from all 30 of these countries for travel and school visas. according to the article.

Well, they list a few:

There are many foreign countries that refuse to retake illegal immigrants convicted of crimes, according to the congressman, including Vietnam, Cuba and China.

Perhaps there is more information provided on Sharyl Attkisson’s program Full Measure as per the article. I have not yet watched this one, but I will—she is excellent!!

Then watch how fast their countries want them back!

They don’t want them... It would not surprise me to find out that some countries
are flying their criminals here just to get rid of them

Cut off all trade until these countries comply. Watch them all cave in 24 hours.

Ship the illegals to the outer perimeter of the country’s territorial limit and then put the illegals on rafts with paddles and give them a push toward their native country.

Keep doing it until they are all out of our country.

Take them to their local airport and dump them out. That’s the way they arrived here, and they coped just fine.
