MIGRANT CRIME ROUND-UP: War Criminals, Traffickers, and a Chick-fil-A Double Murder.

While Joe Biden’s poor debate performance and mental decline are dominating the news, the migrant crime epidemic Donald Trump warned against in February continues apace.

CHICK-FIL-A SHOOTER.

Authorities have charged Oved Bernardo Mendoza Argueta, 37, with capital murder for allegedly shooting and killing two workers at a Chick-fil-A in Texas.

The El Salvadoran told authorities he crossed the U.S. border unlawfully, but he did not specify the time or place of entry. Mendoza Argueta states he is married and has a child who is a U.S. citizen. This puts him in a category of illegal alien Joe Biden says he will protect from deportation.

The shootings took in the Dallas suburb of Irving and claimed the lives of Brayan Godoy, a 31-year-old father of four, and Patricia Portillo, a 49-year-old grandmother.

WAR CRIMINALS.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has been straining its resources to locate and arrest 11 foreigners who “fraudulently entered the United States in an attempt to escape justice” for violating human rights in their homelands.

HONDURAN PEDOPHILE.

Honduran illegal Junior Manuel Dubon Benitez, 18, has been charged with sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl in Iowa. Benitez is charged with sexual abuse in the second degree, according to Iowa court documents.

Dubon Benitez entered the U.S. illegally via Hidalgo, Texas, in April 2022.

HONDURAN HUMAN TRAFFICKER.

Another Honduran, Dora Patricia Flores Canales, has been deported for “aggravated human trafficking in the form of commercial sexual exploitation.”

ICE suggested the foreign fugitive posed “a significant threat to our nation.”

DOMINICAN DRUG TRAFFICKER.

Dominican illegal Jose Abel Polanco-Ramirez, 23, has been detained by ICE after being charged with “trafficking cocaine, distribution of cocaine, possession of cocaine and carrying a dangerous weapon” in Massachusetts.

WANTED CHILD RAPIST.

Also in Massachusetts, ICE detained an unnamed Ecuadorian illegal who first entered the U.S. in 2021. He has been wanted in Ecuador for the rape of a minor and invasion of privacy since at least May 2023.

“This Ecuadorian fugitive is facing some very serious charges, but instead of facing the justice system, he fled and attempted to take refuge in Massachusetts,” said an ICE spokesman, adding that the illegal “posed a significant threat to the children of our communities.”

CONNECTICUT KILLER.

Manuel Fernando Alejandor-Martinez, 23, has been taken into custody by ICE following a conviction for manslaughter in Connecticut.

The Guatemalan illegal, who killed a Connecticut resident while driving an uninsured vehicle, had been released to a halfway house by the Connecticut Department of Corrections in August 2023 in defiance of an ICE detainer.

Trump Allies Distance Themselves From Project 2025

A spokesperson for the think tank told The Epoch Times that it ‘does not speak for any candidate or campaign.’

Several Trump allies have followed former President Donald Trump’s move and distanced themselves from the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, while the group said that it doesn’t back any particular candidate.

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), who has been rumored to be a potential Trump vice presidential candidate, was asked multiple questions about the think tank’s plan during a Sunday interview with CNN.

“Think tanks do think tank stuff. They come up with ideas, they say things,” Mr. Rubio said in an interview with host Dana Bash on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “But our candidate for president is Donald Trump.”

Mr. Rubio was specifically asked about the head of Project 2025, Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts, who had made comments during a podcast about a “second American Revolution” that will “remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.”

“Well, he’s not running for president, is he?” Mr. Rubio said in reference to Mr. Roberts’s comments. “Our candidate’s Donald Trump. I didn’t see Donald Trump say that.”

He added that the former president “is running on common sense, on restoring common sense versus the lunacy of the last four years and the far left and the shadow government that now is running our country.” The Florida Republican added that he agrees “with some of the things they stand for,” referring to the Heritage Foundation.

Stephen Miller, a former top Trump adviser who is expected to be tapped for a position in a second Trump administration, also distanced himself from the Heritage Foundation-backed initiative.

“A while back I made a video for students on how to build skills. I have never been involved with Project 2025, not one word,” Mr. Miller wrote on social media over the past weekend, responding to claims that he was involved and that a video he made was being used by Project 2025. Such claims, he added, are “hoaxes.”

A Project 2025 spokesperson also told The Epoch Times over the weekend that it doesn’t back any particular presidential candidate, including former President Trump.

“As we’ve been saying for more than two years now, Project 2025 does not speak for any candidate or campaign. We are a coalition of more than 110 conservative groups advocating policy and personnel recommendations for the next conservative president,” the spokesperson said.
