Venezuela Is Exporting Its Violent Crime Problem to US, Thanks to Biden; Correlation: Venezuela’s Violent Crime Dropped as U.S. Illegal Migration Spiked

Venezuela Is Exporting Its Violent Crime Problem to US, Thanks to Biden:

It’s not hard to figure out why.

The killing of Laken Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student in Athens, Georgia, has become the latest and most prominent case of an American being killed as a consequence of President Joe Biden’s open-border policies.

The man being held in connection with the killing of Riley is Jose Antonio Ibarra, a Venezuelan illegal immigrant who reportedly entered the United States in 2022. Since his arrival in the U.S., he appears to have spent his time breaking various other laws and behaving like a general menace to society. He has been arrested for various serious crimes and repeatedly released.

Now, a young American woman is dead.

Here’s how Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas—who has been impeached by the House—described the responsibility for the killing.

“As a prosecutor, having prosecuted violent crime and other crimes for 12 years, one individual is responsible for the murder, and that is the murderer,” he said on CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday.

That’s not at all how the Left typically talks about crime—as an account on X, formerly Twitter, pointed out.

Mayorkas on the illegal that k*lled Laken Riley:

“One individual is responsible for the m*rder. And that is the m*rderer.

“Interesting standard.

Aren’t we told white supremacy, hate speech and citizens owning guns are the real causes of other crimes?pic.twitter.com/pAE8ObuhDJ

Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., didn’t mince words about the cause of this evil: “Joe Biden and Alejandro Mayorkas have blood on their hands for every single American murdered by an illegal alien. They need to do their jobs and secure our border before more innocent Americans are killed.” —>READ MORE HERE

Correlation: Venezuela’s Violent Crime Dropped as U.S. Illegal Migration Spiked:

Amid reports that Laken Riley’s suspected murderer was an illegal Venezuelan immigrant with a criminal record, observers are pointing to a correlation between Venezuela’s declining crime rate and the intensifying crisis at the U.S. southern border.

“The murder rate in Venezuela was a massive crisis for the country,” political commentator Mike Cernovich recently pointed out on X. “The murder rate has sharply declined since [President] Joe Biden opened the borders. Now the [United States] gets to experience these murders and gang attacks.”

Cernovich cited a pair of articles to show the drastic decline in murders in the South American nation.

One article from 2019 referred to Venezuela’s murder rate as “soaring,” adding that it has “plunged the nation into a public health crisis.”

However, Cernovich also cited a Bloomberg piece from December 2023 acknowledging that the country’s murder rate is the “lowest since 2001.” The article also acknowledges that this comes as a record number of migrants are leaving the country.

“Venezuela’s rate of violent deaths dropped to its lowest level in more than two decades following years of massive migration as both criminals and victims fled the nation’s economic crisis,” author Andreina Itriago Acosta wrote in the article.

Writer Nate Hochman replied to Cernovich: “And now, Venezuela is refusing to accept the Venezuelan nationals that the U.S. is trying to send home.”

Hochmann referenced a Wall Street Journal (WSJ) article from last week. “Uncle Sam is once again footing the bill for other country’s problems,” he emphasized. —>READ MORE HERE
