Border agents arrested at least 17 sex criminals at the southwest border in April, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported, as rapists, child molesters, and other criminals continued their merry parade into the country. Meanwhile, Sleepy Joe fretted about “systemic racism” and “white supremacy.”
The latest haul of sexual predators, most previously deported, nearly tops that of March’s 18, and suggests that criminals are a large part of the illegal-alien Biden Rush to the border. Even worse, the numbers suggest these perps don’t fear capture even though re-entering the country as a convicted felon is a serious crime.
That’s likely because the illegals have a good chance of slipping by agents occupied with babysitting the “migrants” they do apprehend. Last month, that total soared to 170,000, a 70 percent increase over February. CBP will release April’s figure sometime soon.
