Border Patrol agents have been busy at the border, arresting thousands of people crossing the border illegally. Of these hundreds were gang members and over 5,000 aliens with criminal records.

According to the Daily Mail:

Hundreds of gang members and more than 5,000 convicted criminals were arrested trying to sneak back into the U.S. in just eight months.

They included 505 confirmed members of violent groups MS-13, 18th Street gang, and the Mexican Mafia hoping to rejoin their organizations.

Last week six violent criminals were detained for deportation after crossing the border, including a convicted murder and pedophile.

Border Patrol agents arrested a Mexican national near El Centro, California who was convicted of child molestation on June 22.

The need to protect our borders is more important than ever and the numbers reported here are concerning. Border Patrol is protecting American citizens from being subject to the incredible amount of criminals flooding our borders thanks to the Trump administrations ramped up efforts.
