A group of Texas sheriffs filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration for preventing the arrest and deportation of criminal illegal immigrants.

Sheriff’s departments from five counties banded together with ICE employees to file a complaint in the Southern District of Texas on Thursday, accusing Biden and the Department of Homeland Security of disrupting local law enforcement by enticing criminals to illegally enter the country.  

The suit came on the heels of Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s failure to take custody of and deport illegal immigrants who have committed crimes in local jurisdictions due to the Biden admin’s policies.  

In February, the acting ICE Director issued an internal memo that directed agency officials to only take custody of immigrants arrested locally that were known or suspected terrorists, members of a criminal gang, or convicted of a violent felony.  

The suit is being helmed by former Kansas attorney general Kris Kobach. “The ICE officers involved in this case are absolutely astounded at what their superiors are asking them to do: releasing people charged with rape of a child, releasing people charged with dealing drugs and resisting arrest,” Kobach said.

“These are really serious criminals, and ICE is being ordered by the political leadership of the Biden administration to turn them loose,” he added

Due to the policy change, sheriffs were forced to release criminal migrants into the local population, instead of relinquishing custody to ICE, which the lawsuit charges as a violation of the federal law that states all illegal immigrants must be detained when deportation proceedings have been initiated, regardless of their criminal history.

“The Biden administration policy stands in direct violation of not one, but three, different federal statutes,” Kobach stated. “The administration’s actions have forced ICE to stand down and have almost brought deportations to a halt. That has fueled the crisis at the border, encouraging more illegal immigration. It has also created an unbearable burden for local law enforcement in Texas.” 

Deportations have hit a record low since the policy change went into effect, ICE agents have averaged only 2,300 arrests per month, a fifth of 2019’s monthly average.

  1. Retard joe and his token ho should be sued for back tracking on their oaths to uphold the constitution and law

    1. Joe, Harris, Nancy, Chuck & all congressmen/women should be impeached or removed from office for this. I laugh at Nancy when she says she the Dems take their oath seriously. Yea, right.

      1. This online job is best for students. Because no experience is required. Check this then make your decision. Boom..Check this. 𝑱𝒐𝒃62.𝑪𝒐𝒎

      2. YES, THEY ARE SO ANTI-AMERICAN WHY ARE THEY STILL IN OFFICE? PUT BUSH, THE SO-CALLED SQUAD, AND WATTERS IN THAT GROUP! A BUNCH OF LOSERS.

    2. well tried. impeached, then investigated and find who is paying biden and his family, then tried again in a criminal complaint, then hung this include his wife and that usless son of his.

      1. The Vatican, a foreign, hostile NATION that is at perpetual undeclared war with the USA is at the back of Biden, CATHOLIC TRAITOR.

  2. Good luck with that. White House Lawyers will employ so much Latin to embroil the courts in technicalities, motions, delays and “National Security” restrictions, by the time this case comes to court, Numb Nuts will be long gone.

  3. LISTEN UP….PREZ BIDEN’S AMERICA is TURNING the UNITED STATES into a SWAMPLAND. The DEMOCRATS Have Also Been MAILING SURVEYS to the AMERICAN PEOPLE Trying to ROOT OUT ALL the CHRISTIANS in the LAND. SOUNDS FISHY to Me. From SamuraiQueen. 😄😄😄

    1. Dem and CATHOLIC are the same. Biden, Pelosi, Cuomo, deblasio, Newsome are all CATHOLIC TRAITORS. Vote for ANY CATHOLIC and you vote for a traitor and a thousand years of exactly 1`00% failure.

  4. Biden should be NAMED AS AN ACCESSORY to every criminal charge they can find.

    He can’t be arrested while in office.

    But the second his replacement takes the Oath of Office he is open to arrest.

    40 States with hundreds, if not thousands of CRIMINAL CHARGES levelled against him, he will have a problem.

    1. It looks like they’re going to go the 25th Amendment route on this clown. Every time he speaks in public, he justifies his removal under that measure.

    2. He Should Be Able To Be Arrested He Is Nothing More Then Just A Person , He Does Not Act Like A President For The USA Joe Biden Should Be Over In Mexico Running For Their President . He Has Done Nothing For The USA OF America Or The USA People That Is Treason For The USA Of America . Under The Laws He Can Be Arrested For Treason To The USA OF AMERICA … Know One Has Check It Out … Kamala Harris = Pelosi = Obama = Clinton = Joe Biden Can all Be Removed from Office Under Treason

    3. Biden is a CATHOLIC TRAITOR. A third all elected are now CATHOLIC TRAITORS . They protect their own and destroy every nation they invade.

  5. THE REAL TRUTH WILL NOT BE HEARD?????? THE DEMS/FRAUDS DO. NOT WANT ANY PART OF IT……..THE Supreme Court DOES NOT WANT TO HEAR ANY CASES IN REFERENCE TO THE ELECTION OF 2020????/. THEY ARE AFRAID OF THE TRUTH?????? THEY (ALL) ARE AFRAID OF TRUMP!!!!!!!! THE HATRED HAS TAKEN OVER THEIR WHOLE BEING??????????? EVERY DAY WE HAVE TO SEE THIS HATRED!!!!!!!!! I HOPE IT GETS ALL OF YOU IN THE END???????? KARMA?????

    1. TRUMP WON THAT ELECTION, THE DAM DEM SNOWFLAKES OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY JUST LEARNED TO CHEAT BETTER THIS TIME! THE HATE THESE PEOPLE HAVE FOR OUR PRESIDENT TRUMP WILL BITE THEM IN THE ASS SOON! THE TRUTH IS ABOUT TO COME OUT ON HOW THEY CHEATED!

  6. Well I feel the same way but as I know and everyone else knows that there’s different laws for democrats and watch and see 👀👀👀the courts won’t hear 👂the case or throw it out that’s why we have change the house and senate 22election is around the corner and it’s up to us We The People

  7. Stop making it sound like Biden has some kind of clue about what is going on because it is clear that he does not! This is Obunghole’s third term and Obunghole is the face of the new world order for the USA. Our people are so indoctrinated that they cannot see it. These are very scary times.

    1. Odumbo was the perfect choice to implement the Soros agenda to dissolve our borders, and Hillary would have been the icing on the cake for Globalists to finalize their plans. Being among the ‘Minority’ class, they would accost their opponents with accusations of racism/sexism (In Obama’s case, homophobia would have also been cited…) These people are so obvious with their odious schemes, the bulk of Americans would pull the rug out from under Hillary to signal their weariness of such behaviors.

    2. YES BIDEN IS STILL UNDER OBUNGHOLE’S SHADOW. HE HAS NO CLUE. HE PROBABLY HAS HIS OLD LADY DRESS HIM IN THE MORNING AND A SPEECHWRITER WITH THAT DAYS NOTES. HE IS SUCH A FRAUD.

  8. The idiot in our white house is hell bent on getting people murdered and children raped . if you are a good upstanding person you are treated like crap and old pedo joe loves the criminals . wonder just how muce he is getting from the drug lords , his pockets are full to overflowing .

  9. ANY illegal activity within the borders of the State of Texas that the Feds are supposedly to take care – if they refuse to obey the laws, the State of Texas has every right to take charge. ANY interference on the part of any other agents would/should result in the arrest of said agents and their detainment until brought to trial in a State of Texas court.
    We must TAKE control regardless of the cost!

    1. Our means to impose the notion that the government should do its job would involve taxation without representation (There was a party in Boston Harbor one time to protest this form of malfeasance and tyranny…) We pay taxes to fund the agency that guards our borders, and maintain the necessary boundaries; fences, detectors, etc, to prevent non-citizens from breaching those borders. If that job is not being performed, we have the authority to redress our government for dereliction of duty. Indeed, they are committing a criminal act when they ignore immigration laws. The problem these days is our media, which is now essentially a form of TASS. They can rally vocal, militant groups of liberal protesters to attack people who try to spur our public officials to seal our boundaries. We can ignore those media types at our peril, but they would have to be mitigated thoroughly before an effective campaign is commenced to bring our miscreant leaders to justice.

  10. There, you see? Dipstick Biden will not even enforce the LAW. Grounds for impeachment at least; at worst, treason.

    1. Straight Out Joe Biden = Kamala Harris = Nancy Pelosi = Obama Should Be Removed For Treason To The USA OF America . The Military Should March In The White House And Start Removing Them And Place Them Under Arrest

  11. This should be a slam dunk in favor of the sheriff. The Constitution & other laws passed by congress support his position.

  12. It’s almost sad that so many people know nothings going to change… Why is nothing going to change? Simple, as screwed up as the demoncrap party is they do one thing that makes them strong… They support each other… If a demoncrap in a republican state runs against a republican the whole demoncrap party works to help that demoncrap win… by the same token, if a republican tries to run against a demoncrap the republicans say “good luck”! I know this to be a fact because I’ve been trying to get support to run against Chucky (Schumer) and the republicans keep telling me good luck, and “he’s unbeatable”… There is NO unity in the republican party and thats why NOTHING is going to change…

  13. ship them all to hollywood they will fit right in and I am sure the so called star’s will take them in as it’s the liberal way

  14. If People In The USA Would stop Giving Them Jobs , Food , Cloths , Money , Houses , Medical , And Ect… They Would Not Have Any Reason To Come Into The USA Of America … This Is The Problem Go On A Construction Job All you See Is Illegal , Painting Houses Illegal , Yard Work illegal . American Need to Be Find Big Time And Loss Their Contacts For Job for Hiring Illegals … Americans Need To Take Back Their USA From These Illegals Show Them They Are Not Welcome . If Any American Was To Go Into Mexico You Would Never Get Anything Free , Maybe Shot Or In Jail . You Would Never Be Able To Have Anything . So Why Is Americans giving Them Anything . I Would Never Give Them Anything Except Show Them The Way To The Broader

    1. THAT’S THE BIDEN AND THE DEMONCRAP WAY! THE MORE ILLEGALS THEY GET ACROSS THE BORDER THE MORE VOTES THEY CAN STEAL!

  15. Biden and his large circus is a waste of time and money. It’s time someone start impeachment proceedings against them all because they are breaking all the laws. Joe Biden is a phoney and A CRIMINAL!!!!

    1. YES LOOK AT THE DEALINGS HE IS STILL HAVING WITH HIS SON! HE IS A CRIMINAL! AND HE IS NOT FOR AMERICA! HE IS THE DEMONCRAP SNOWFLAKES PUPPET!

  16. The real answer for all this BS is for all American Patriots to come together & take this country back how ever we have to take it. There are a whole lot more of us than there are of them. Biden says we need nukes & stuff like that to take on the guberment. Not true. Think about it.

  17. Lock up this sick fu.. biden. Tell him he is going for ice cream and then put him in solitary until he can be fitted for a rope necktie. Traitor.

  18. The Biden Policies are a bunch of crap put together by all of these leftist snowflake nobodies!

    He would not have a real thought if it bit him on the ass. WHAT A LOSER SLEEPY JOE!
