Whistleblower: Obama Knowingly Allowed Illegal Immigration of MS-13 Gang Members

The Obama administration was so willing to allow illegal immigration into the United States, they allowed known gang members to enter — then defended their reasons for coming.

The Obama administration knowingly let in at least 16 admitted MS-13 gang members who arrived at the U.S. as illegal immigrant teenagers in 2014, a top senator said Wednesday, citing internal documents that showed the teens were shipped to juvenile homes throughout the country.

Sen. Ron Johnson, chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, said a whistleblower turned over Customs and Border Protection documents from 2014 detailing the 16 people who were caught crossing the border.

“CBP apprehended them, knew they were MS-13 gang members, and they processed and disbursed them into our communities,” Mr. Johnson, Wisconsin Republican, said.

The gang members were part of the surge of UAC, or “unaccompanied alien children,” as the government labels them, who overwhelmed the Obama administration in 2014, leaving Homeland Security struggling to staunch the flow from Central America.

Officials at the time said the children should be treated as refugees fleeing horrific conditions back home — though security analysts said the children were prime recruiting territory for gangs already in the U.S.

MS-13’s rein may soon be over. While the Obama administration had been ineffective curbing their influence, Trump’s team has made their eradication a top priority. With their tougher immigration and deportation policies, this task should prove much easier.
