Vice President JD Vance is saying that the Trump administration has been able to pick up so many criminal illegals is because the feds already knew were thousands of them were, but the Biden admin. refused to do it.

Vance said it was “crazy” when he found out that ICE and the Dept. of Homeland Security already knew the locations of thousands of criminal illegals.

“What is shocking to me is that many of these violent criminals – we knew their addresses, we knew their names. We just needed to send somebody to go to their house and get them the hell out of the country,” Vance told Fox News host Sean Hannity on Wednesday night.

He went on to note that federal agencies did nothing at all about these criminals until Trump took over last week.

“It really should shock the conscience of the American people,” Vance exclaimed.

He also pointed out that many Democrats and opponents of Trump’s deportation plans claimed that federal officials didn’t know where the criminals were. But Vance says that when he got to office and was briefed, he discovered that was a lie.

“It turns out we actually do know where a lot of them are. We just haven’t had immigration enforcement. And that’s what’s changed,” he said.

They knew about it the whole time, but Biden would not let them go pick them up.

Biden aided and abetted these criminals, folks. And if you are a Democrat, you, too, have made all our lives less safe.
