Oklahoma ICE sting busts 34 illegal alien truck drivers, others with rap sheets

Officials warn that many of the drivers did not meet English proficiency requirements.

An immigration enforcement operation in Oklahoma resulted in dozens of arrests, including 34 illegal alien truck drivers, according to ICE.

The arrests announced earlier this week come amid concerns about road safety and national security related to an influx of foreign drivers entering the American trucking industry following the Biden administration's open-border policies. These concerns have intensified following several recent fatal crashes involving illegal alien truck drivers.

Operation Guardian, a two-day sweep along the I-40 eastern corridor in late October, led to the arrests of 70 illegal aliens. Among those detained were 26 individuals with CDLs and eight others who were operating commercial vehicles without valid licenses, ICE stated.

The operation involved ICE and the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, as part of a 287(g) partnership. The agreement allows OHP troopers to enforce immigration violations.

"For the second time in just the past month, the state of Oklahoma and ICE have banded together to bolster public safety along Oklahoma's highways, identifying and apprehending illegal aliens who are in the country illegally and have been recklessly issued a commercial driver's license by states like California, Illinois, and New Jersey," stated Marcos Charles, the executive associate director of ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations.

Of the 70 illegal aliens nabbed by immigration officials, 36 reportedly had a prior criminal history with offenses that included assault and battery, soliciting prostitution, and DUI. Two illegal aliens were wanted overseas for fraud and burglary.

Those arrested originated from 15 different countries, including China, Colombia, Georgia, Guatemala, India, Kyrgyzstan, Mexico, Turkey, Uzbekistan, and Venezuela.

A similar September raid in Oklahoma resulted in the arrests of 120 illegal aliens, including 91 who were operating commercial vehicles.

There’s a place on I-80 in west Nebraska where law enforcement will post that there are stops two exits ahead. LOE waits at the first exit because its a farmer exit with nowhere to go but on rural roads. They mostly get people coming from Colorado with legal weed.

If they started arresting the employers, this would end.

When they have DUI checkpoints in my area, they do it at intersections. If you drive thru the checkpoint, they wave you through. If you turn at the intersection, a motorcycle cop follows you, until they have probable cause to pull you over.

Shouldn’t the Fed start arresting the State DMV personnel who issue these drivers licenses?
