Federal immigration officers released another 30,000 immigrants with criminal records last year, following the 36,000 it released in 2013, the government announced Wednesday — though it promised to take steps to cut down on the problem.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the agency that handles detention and removal of illegal immigrants, said it will no longer allow overcrowding to be the main reason a dangerous illegal immigrant is released, and will require a top supervisor to approve the cases of any serious criminals that officers want to release.
Overall, ICE released 30,558 criminal aliens in fiscal 2014, which is down from the 36,007 criminals released a year before.

” Just exactly who is Homeland suppose to ‘protect’ us from?”
White Christians, with no criminal record.

I know right, he seems to commit another act of treason every week the latest being last week the story that he was sending money to help defeat Bibi which right there is a crime - influencing a foreign election - but more so attacking the leader of an allied nation to benefit enemies of the US. It really does happen once a week if not more, it’s just one act of treason after another after another after another with this guy. And just think: They made Nixon resign because 18 minutes were missing from a freakin’ tape. This Congress is absolutely useless.
This congress is criminal. To do nothing in the face of treason is to be a co-conspirator of treason.
He intends to “talk”.
Nothing else.
Outrageous.
Yep
Obama wants to close GITMO detainees and bring those criminals to America that they can be released with all the illegals. Some of these illegals have committed murder and the U.S. should be able to execute these people quickly. It would create efficiency. If we say that an illegal alien in not a U.S. citizens then they need to be executed. Kill the killers and they come back to the U.S.
