As the Democrats continue to wail and screech over U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations in Minneapolis, Portland, and elsewhere, the receipts continue to pile up showing that they are in fact cheerleading and trying to protect some of the worst criminal elements in our society.

One reality they continue to ignore is that if blue state “sanctuary” mayors and governors hadn’t purposefully reneged on their sworn duty to keep the public safe, and if ideologues like former President Joe Biden hadn’t opened the floodgates at the southern border to any and all comers, many of these enforcement operations would have never been necessary in the first place.

On Saturday, Fox News’ Bill Melugin received a list from ICE of some of the worst hard-core villains they’ve captured so far in ongoing operations in Minnesota.

These are (allegedly) some bad, bad people:

BREAKING: ICE has provided @FoxNews a list of the most egregious criminal aliens they've arrested during their surge in the sanctuary state of Minnesota, & it's the most disturbing list I've ever seen, including numerous convicted child rapists/sodomizers & ten convicted killers,… pic.twitter.com/xukxfLd4gZ

His tweet continues:

BREAKING: ICE has provided @FoxNews a list of the most egregious criminal aliens they've arrested during their surge in the sanctuary state of Minnesota, & it's the most disturbing list I've ever seen, including numerous convicted child rapists/sodomizers & ten convicted killers, most with deportation orders going back many years. Several from Laos, Somalia, and Sudan.

While the Portland police chief cries over the fact that two Tren de Aragua members were shot by ICE when they tried to run over officers with a vehicle, and virtually every Democrat politician has accused ICE of murder for the death of Renee Good — even though she ignored lawful orders and drove a 4,000 lb. SUV at an agent — this is who they’re actually protecting. 

Warning: graphic descriptions:

Sriudorn Phaivan, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of strong-arm sodomy of a boy & strong-arm sodomy of a girl with a deportation order since 2018.

Tou Vang, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of sexual assault and sodomy of a girl under age 13 and procuring a child for prostitution with a deportation order since 2006.

Chong Vue, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of the strong-arm rape of a 12-year-old girl and kidnapping a child with intent to sexually assault her, with a deportation order since 2004,

Ge Yang, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of strong-arm rape, aggravated assault with a weapon, and strangulation with a deportation order since 2012.

Pao Choua Xiong, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of rape and child fondling with a deportation order since 2003.

Note that I’m just showing you the top five miscreants on the list — there are over a dozen more who you can read about by clicking Melugin’s tweet.

He notes:

CE says all of these criminal aliens were roaming freely in the sanctuary state of Minnesota prior to arrest, and that these are the type of people that politicians and activists are referring to as their “neighbors” as they attempt to interfere with ICE.

WH Kept Receipts, Lists 57 Times 'Sick, Unhinged' Democrats Called for Violence Against Law Enforcement

As we’ve reported, the Dems have turned their rhetoric up to 11 in implying or outright saying that violence is justified against ICE. Sounds very “insurrectiony” to me.

But remember, as you read their tearful, melodramatic statements, these are the kind of people they’re defending. Leftists are more focused on protecting vicious, predatory child molesters and thugs than they are on keeping the streets of America safe. Hopefully, voters are noticing and will remember this in November and in ’28.

Editor’s Note: Democrat politicians and their radical supporters will do everything they can to interfere with and threaten ICE agents enforcing our immigration laws.
