Congressman: Obama Admin Withholding Info About 86,000 Criminal Illegal Immigrants
Washington Free Beacon ^ | June 3, 2016 | Adam Credo

-86,000 criminal illegal immigrants have committed 231,000 crimes in past two and a half years-

The Obama administration is withholding from Congress and the American people detailed information about more than 86,000 illegal aliens who have committed serious crimes and continue to walk the streets in the United States, according to conversations with a member of Congress, who disclosed to the Washington Free Beacon that “if the public knew about this there would be total absolute outrage” over the matter.

Rep. Brian Babin (R., Texas) told the Free Beacon that the administration is trying to suppress information about the release of some 86,000 criminal illegal immigrants who have committed 231,000 crimes in just the past two and a half years.

Babin, who is spearheading new legislation to boost the deportation rate of these criminals, many of whom continue to walk free across America, warned that the administration is not taking action to deport these criminal illegal immigrants once they are freed from U.S. prisons.

“All I can think of is they don’t want the general public to know what’s going on,” Babin said in an interview. “When you have 86,000 criminal aliens committing 231,000 crimes just over the last two and half years, I don’t think they want the public to know what’s going on.”

“I think if the public knew about this there would be total absolute outrage,” Babin said. “I talk to some of these victims families, it’s just incredible to see what has happened and the fact these people served time for felonies, they’re released from prison, they’re illegally here, and then not being deported, so they go back to their life of crime.”

Babin said that he has not “had any briefings by the administration” on the matter.

“My briefings are coming from the victims’ families or the victims themselves of these people who are being released and are criminal aliens here,” he said. “Some of these stories are absolutely tragic.”

Babin is the author of legislation that would halt travel visas and U.S. foreign aid to any country that refuses to take back its citizens.

The bill comes as the Obama administration has deported a very small number of illegal immigrants from the United States.

The Immigration and Customs Enforcement bureau deported nearly 410,000 aliens in 2012 when it received roughly $2.8 billion in taxpayer funds. The agency expelled just 235,413 aliens in 2015 but received around $3.5 billion to fund its deportation programs, according to the DHS statistics.

Deportations have dropped by 174,436 over the past three years despite an increase in funding totaling more than $680 million, according to the statistics.

Separate statistics issued by the Department of Homeland Security reveal that the administration deported less than 1 percent of foreigners who illegally overstayed their travel visas to the United States.

Babin compared the situation to a similar controversy over the administration’s plan to bring in more than 10,000 Syrian refugees over the next year. Congressional critics of the plan have warned that federal authorities do not have the capability to properly vet these individuals for ties to terrorism.

“It’s kind of like our refugee situation,” Babin said. “It’s very, very difficult to get information about how these refugees are brought into our country and settled around into localities without the knowledge of the local citizens.”

When U.S. cities do finally learn about these refugees, “they have really no authority to stop it or even slow it down. All you can think of is that the administration really is not too wild about the American citizens finding out about how these things operate.”

At least 179,029 criminal illegal aliens who have been ordered deported from the United States continue to roam free, according to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

The Free Beacon disclosed in August 2015 that the administration had been keeping the release of violent illegal immigrants a secret from U.S. towns.

Babin said that his legislation would help remedy the program by penalizing foreign nations for their continued refusal to take back their citizens.

“This is a bipartisan bill,” he said. “There’s nothing partisan about this. We’re trying to protect U.S. citizens.”

Rep. Babin, and his fellow GOP poltroons in the Congress, are trying to close the barn door long after the horse has departed.

Actually these immigrants were going to eat it. Yum, tasty calf. Too bad they got caught and the calf had to be destroyed since it was estranged from the herd. In muzzie land every thing is stealable, apparently.

There has NEVER ever been an American President that was so treasonous or so bent on the total destruction of this nation. A big thank you to his parents, grandparents and Frank Marshall Davis. Hell’s fires cannot be hot enough for you to suit me.

Send every illegal in prison and their families back to their home country. It’s bad enough American criminals don’t respect US law.

He may want to tell the people responsible for this Donald Trump Could Threaten U.S. Rule of Law.

After 7+ years they suddenly seem to care about things like the Constitution. I'm sure they'll jump at the opportunity to see if there are any transparency, oversight, separation of powers, or other issues that threaten the rule of law. Obama has set all sorts of precedence that could support exactly what they are concerned about. Anyone concerned about Trump may want to get on their attacks of Obama so they have at least a little credibility when attacking President Trump for things Obama did repeatedly.

There were very good reasons that the founders insisted on a natural born citizen for President.
Owebowmao is proof enough for me.
Both parties cooperated in the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

Trump needs to see this. He could weave it into his illegal immigration argument. The voting public needs to know this.

Does anyone know how to get in touch with a real, pro-active person at the Trump campaign?

Wishful thinking. But to find the 20 million more illegals would now be impossible. Millions are being supported and protected by the communists empire led by King Obama, the communists black Muslim terrorists.

a member of Congress... disclosed to the Washington Free Beacon that “if the public knew about this there would be total absolute outrage”...

Ann Coulter wrote about it in detail over a year ago. But the mainstream media who used to promote her books have soured on her since she wrote critically of the race wars just before the second Obama election.
