DHS: Venezuela is sending criminals to the border; Congressional Republicans demand the report be released

Venezuela is not sending its best

  • A leaked Department of Homeland Security (DHS) intelligence report warns that Venezuela President Nicolas Maduro is emptying its prisons and sending criminals to the border.
  • Border Patrol agents are being warned to be on the lookout for violent criminals illegally entering the country.

The letter notes that there have been more than 130,000 encounters with Venezuelans between October 2021 and July 2022

  • a 175% increase over last year.
  • There were 55,333 unique encounters from Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua in August, an increase of 175% over the same period.

Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX)

  • The Biden administration is encouraging foreign terrorist organizations (FTOs) and transnational criminal organizations (TCOs) to take advantage of our vulnerable southern border
  • 78 migrants encountered this fiscal year by Border Patrol agents whose names appear on the FBI's Terrorist Screening Database (TSD) have been identified as being from Venezuela
  • DHS should have brought this information to the attention of the House Homeland Security Committee before the leaked intelligence report surfaced
