30 Countries Are Refusing To Take Back Illegal Immigrants Convicted Of Serious Crimes
[Daily Caller] Approximately 30 countries are refusing to accept the deportations of illegal immigrants who have committed serious crimes in the U.S., according to Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar.

While these countries are refusing to accept the deportations of these criminals, the U.S. government is still issuing visas and student visas to citizens of those countries, according to the Texan congressman. There is already a law on the books which allows the U.S. to hold visas from a country that is not taking back its criminals, but according to Cuellar, the U.S. is not enforcing it.

"We’re not enforcing it, which is amazing. So now my intent is to go back to our committee on appropriations and affect their funding until they do that," Cuellar told Sharyl Attkisson, host of Full Measure, in an interview.

Cuellar, a Democratic member of the House Committee on Appropriations, told Attkisson that the Supreme Court has ruled that illegal immigrants arrested for criminal activity can only be held for a certain period of time before they must be released.

Trump Was Right: Castro Did Send Criminals to U.S. A history lesson about the Mariel boatlift.

If you ever worry about the quality of news on the Internet, consider a recent story at BuzzFeed from reporter Adrian Carrasquillo. The writer notes indignantly that Donald Trump's infamous campaign comments about Mexican immigrants were not unprecedented: Speaking on a radio talk show, in 2011, Trump had anticipated his claim that "Mexico was sending criminals and rapists" to the United States (in Carrasquillo's words) by "appear[ing] to suggest Fidel Castro had hatched a similar gambit."

Here is what Trump said in 2011:

#4 Compromise: send them halfway across the ocean.

If their home countries object to them being executed, they can take them back.

#5 Store them in that country's embassy. If they won't send them home, they can keep them in their embassy here. If they still refuse, don't allow anyone in or out, including any deliveries of food etc. Turn off water, power and sewer as well. I'm done being 'nice' to the world. We need to ask ourselves, "What would the Romans do?"
