Trump Deportations of Migrant Criminals Will Have Deterrent Effect: Border Patrol Council Chief

Deportation of Migrant Criminals

• 💡 The National Border Patrol Council believes deporting MS-13 and TDA gang members will have a deterrent effect, making them reconsider entering the U.S.
• 🎯 Individuals caught will likely be sent to prisons in El Salvador, a place deemed suitable for gangsters and criminals who have caused havoc.
• ⚠️ This policy is seen as a direct contrast to Biden's open borders policies, which are blamed for enabling criminal activity.

Maduro's Role in Migrant Flows

• 🧠 Victor Avila suggests that the Maduro regime in Venezuela is strategically pushing gang members into the U.S.
• 🔗 Evidence points to a connection between the Maduro regime, TDA members in the U.S., and the larger cartel, Cartel de Las, which also links Venezuela and Iran.
• 🚨 This connection is considered a significant national security issue, leading to the designation of some groups as terrorists.

Immigration Enforcement and Border Security

• ⚖️ While a judge questioned the use of a specific law for deportations due to the absence of war with Venezuela, other immigration laws can still be used for removal.
• 🤝 El Salvador's willingness to accept deportees is highlighted as a positive step, with many individuals belonging in their home countries.
• 📉 Paul Perez notes a dramatic slowdown in border crossings, describing the current situation as a 'trickle' due to a more assertive border patrol posture.
• 🚫 Previously, individuals from countries like Iran and China were abusing the asylum system, but they are no longer coming due to apprehension and return policies.
