Trump Was Right Again: Venezuela Empties Prisons and Sends Criminals to Cross Benedict Biden's Open Border

Donald Trump seems to get proven right about things every week.

When Donald Trump first ran for president, he made controversial statements about the quality of people crossing the southern border illegally. Even many Republicans were turned off because such talk was "taboo" at the time. The GOP Establishment had declared the brewing border crisis of the time was not an issue worth discussing.

Trump was, of course, right. He was right in 2016. He was right throughout his first term. He's being proven very, very right every day that we see the open borders under Joe Biden. Now, we're learning he probably didn't know how right he was with news out of Venezuela.

According to Breitbart:

A recent Department of Homeland Security intelligence report received by the Border Patrol instructs agents to look for Venezuelan inmates released from entering the U.S., according to a source within CBP. The report, reviewed by Breitbart Texas, indicates the Venezuelan government, under the leadership of Nicolás Maduro Moros, is purposely freeing inmates — including some convicted of murder, rape, and extortion.

The intelligence report warns agents the freed prisoners have been seen within migrant caravans traveling from Tapachula, Mexico toward the U.S.-Mexico border as recently as July. The source, not authorized to speak to the media, told Breitbart Texas the move is reminiscent of a similar action taken by Cuban dictator Fidel Castro during the Mariel boat lift in the 1980s.

The report does not state whether the released prison inmates were traveling as a cohesive group but does state it was commonly shared knowledge among migrants traveling to the United States within a caravan in July that many of the Venezuelan migrants in the group were convicts and included hardened criminals.

The report does not specify that the release of the convicts — understanding they would head to the United States — could be a purposeful geopolitical move specifically intended to impact U.S. national security. Another information gap cited in the report acknowledges the unknown role the Bolivarian National Intelligence Service (SEBIN), Venezuela’s equivalent to the CIA, may have played in the deliberate releases.

The source says the task of identifying Venezuelans who have criminal records in their home country is nearly impossible. Of the thousands of Venezuelan migrants surrendering along the U.S.-Mexico border daily, most, according to the source, are being released into the United States. Without effective diplomatic relations with Venezuela, the source says access to criminal databases in that country simply does not exist.

“Unless we apprehend someone who voluntarily tells us they have committed a violent crime in Venezuela, we can only guess and that doesn’t work well,” the source told Breitbart. “They will more than likely be released.”

The source says it is unknown how many have already been released into the interior of the United States to pursue asylum.

The open borders created by the Biden-Harris regime are so bad, South American leaders are releasing criminals from prison and telling them to head north. Why not? The only way they'd get deported is if they go to Martha's Vineyard.
