The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reported that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) continued to arrest "the worst of the worst" illegal immigrant criminals across the country, "despite continued attacks and demonization of our brave agents."

In the past two days, illegal immigrants arrested by ICE have criminal records for offenses including sexual conduct with a minor under the age of 14, indecency with a minor, driving under the influence of alcohol by criminal negligence, homicide, drug charges, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, robbery, breaking and entering and battery, explains the statement on the DHS website.

"While sanctuary politicians are comparing ICE to the Nazi Gestapo, the Secret Police, and slave patrols, ICE law enforcement is risking their lives to arrest the WORST OF THE WORST. Over the past two days, ICE arrested pedophiles, drug traffickers, drunk drivers, and violent thugs," said Deputy Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin.

"Our ICE agents are heroes. They should be praised for making America safe again not vilified," she added.

More than 900 "criminal aliens, convicted murderers and child predators" arrested

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Houston last week reported the arrest of more than 900 immigrants it described as criminals, transnational gang members, child predators, alien fugitives and other serious immigration violators during an operation focused on improving public safety in Southeast Texas.

The operation, according to the official statement, was part of the Trump administration's focus on restoring public safety in local communities across the country by targeting the "worst of the worst" criminal migrants and others who violate federal immigration laws.

Among the irregular immigrants arrested are five transnational gang members, seven child predators and three criminal aliens convicted of homicide.
