Biden has made it clear that his number one mission as president is to undo everything the Trump administration accomplished over the last four years. His newest cancellation simply does not make sense.
Biden’s administration recently cancelled Operation Talon, a Trump administration program aimed at removing convicted sex offenders living in the United States illegally.
Though the program seems to be something everyone should support, it clearly isn’t. Why would anyone want sex offenders to remain in the country?
South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson joined a coalition of 18 state attorneys general to urge Biden to reverse the cancellation, according to ABC 4 News.
“We’re working hard to fight human trafficking and sex crimes in South Carolina and allowing convicted sex offenders who are here illegally to remain in our country makes absolutely no sense,” Wilson said. “These trafficking and sex crimes are repugnant to human decency generally and to children specifically,” he added.
The letter, directed to Joe Biden, the Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Acting Director of ICE Tae Johnson, pointed out the problems with this cancellation. The attorneys general argued that canceling Operation Talon could encourage sexual predators to attack.
“The United States’ population of illegal immigrants includes disturbingly large numbers of criminals with prior convictions for sexual crimes,” the letter reads. “According to data collected by Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, during the period from October 2014 to May 2018 ICE arrested 19,572 illegal aliens with criminal convictions for whom the most serious prior conviction was a conviction for a sex-related offense.”
“Meanwhile, an increasing number of illegal aliens are entering the United States after having been previously convicted of sexual offenses,” it continues. “The cancellation of [Operation Talon] effectively broadcasts to the world that the United States is now a sanctuary jurisdiction for sexual predators. This message creates a perverse incentive for foreign sexual predators to seek to enter the United States illegally and assault more victims, both in the process of unlawful migration and after they arrive. It will also broadcast the message to other criminal aliens who have committed other offenses that any kind of robust enforcement against them is unlikely.”
The letter begs perhaps the most important question: “If the United States will not remove even convicted sex offenders, whom will it remove?”
In addition to South Carolina, the state attorneys general that signed on to the letter include: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, and West Virginia.
Crank up another lawsuit. This is just simply extreme left insanity.
Epstein didn’t kill himself.
The demented, corrupt, vile Biden has a kinship with sex offenders.His Administration is loaded with sex offenders of many different sorts. Biden would give Michael Jackson the Medal of Freedom post humously if he could.
So far, not one EO has done anything to help the American people. NOT ONE!!
This administration has one mission - Destroy this country.
How long 2 as Yrump’s program in place and how effective was it?
Why is anyone surprised by this? A criminal will always support others like him/her-self.
Well that just leaves the last option as Xiden releases these scum into the populace and that is the male relatives of the victims get to go on a scavenger hunt. First one back with the ears wins.
Sorry.....Damn auto correct got previous message. How long was Trump’s program in place and how effective was it? ?
We may never know......................
“How long was Trump’s program in place and how effective was it?”
Strange question to ask. It could not have been in place very long, and it was a start and a good faith effort, and it was probably as effective as any other program he put in place. The fact that it is being stopped means it was probably effective.
I’m good with that on the condition they must all live in DC, Los Angeles or New York and not leave.
Simple.
Birds of a Feather...
This makes sense when you have the sniffer/fondler in chief illegally holding the office of President of the United States.
Don’t worry. I can interpret auto correct malfunction.
Illegal sex offenders are Plugs the Pedo’s base.
When is jizzlane gonna get sprung from jail?
Yup, the peddle file in chief protects his own.
As soon as she’s room temp........................
Shortly after Garland is confirmed.
