The World Cup of ICE arrests: Filtering villains not by state of residence, but by country of origin.
The Spectator ^ | 01/23/2026 | Cockburn

The White House and Department of Homeland Security are making hay out of the DHS “Worst of the Worst” database, posting links to it throughout the week as evidence that ICE’s actions in Minnesota are justified. President Trump also held up printouts from the database during his Tuesday marathon presser. But Cockburn has been playing a different game with the database: filtering villains not by state of residence, but by country of origin.

Of note: none are from the United Arab Emirates, or from Belgium, (which, unlike the UAE, refuses to join President Trump’s Board of Peace). There are only three Greeks but seven Israelis, including a burglar with the piquant name of Jack Shlush (which, Cockburn guesses, comes after Jack Frost).

Australia has a few, including one Darcy Wedd, convicted of identity theft, fraud by wire, money-laundering remarks and fraud. Remind Cockburn never to play poker with him. There are 12 pages of Chinese nationals, 12 pages of Haitians, 813 pages of Mexicans, a few dozen Somalis, 36 Britons and five Irish nationals, including the sinister Evelyn Corcoran, convicted of “Homicide-Willful Kill Family-Gun.”

As for the 10 “Italians” in the database, clearly Pelligrino Piscatelli (Larceny, Fraud) is from the Old Country, as is, we assume, Giuseppe Di Fede, both arrested in Florida. But Katerine Ramirez, Whitney Guzman and Abel Aguero Batista? That’s-a not Italian! As for Austrian Andrei Dogar, arrested in Hawaii for sexual assault: when will he realize Vienna waits for him?

I hope all of those military age Chinese men are prioritized for deportation.
