Not sure if anyone else reported this from December. Good reference to counter LibTard lies on illegals and crime.

Law-abiding and hard-working individual immigrants notwithstanding, could the ‘Myth of the Noble Illegal Immigrant’ be nothing more than just another Big Lie?

Thankfully, President Trump is under no such obligations to maintain the illusions enforced by political-correctness. On Thursday, the Department of Justice and Homeland Security released long-suppressed data on illegal immigrants and federal crime. Granted, this is only a small part of the overall picture, as both sides admit, but it’s still a telling one. According to the report, “more than one-in-five of all persons in Bureau of Prisons custody were foreign born, and 94 percent of confirmed aliens in custody were unlawfully present.”

Further, when it comes to federal crime convictions, non-citizens were responsible for 22 percent of all murder, 18 percent of fraud, 33 percent of money laundering, 29 percent of drug trafficking, and 72 percent of all drug possession convictions, according to a graphic presented by Fox News host Tucker Carlson on his Thursday evening show.
