Summary
1. ICE Arrests in Houston
- U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested 214 illegal aliens in the Houston, Texas area over a six-month period.
- All individuals were charged or convicted of sex offenses involving minors.
- This number exceeds the total arrests for similar offenses in the entire previous fiscal year (211 arrests).
- The arrests are attributed to a multi-agency targeting initiative launched under the Trump administration, aimed at removing “the worst of the worst” criminal aliens.
Notable Arrests Highlighted
- Jesus Coutirez (67, Mexico): Convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child; deported.
- George Zebra (48, Mexico): Convicted of multiple child sex offenses; deported.
- Manuel Antonio Castro (37, El Salvador): Convicted of sexual assault of a minor; in custody pending deportation.
- Jose Mesa (40, Mexico): Convicted of theft and sexual assault of a child; deported.
- Sergio Rolando (45, Mexico): Convicted of DWI and aggravated sexual assault of a child; deported.
Agencies Involved
- ICE collaborated with multiple federal and local agencies including:
- FBI
- ATF
- DEA
- U.S. Customs and Border Protection
- U.S. Marshals
- Diplomatic Security Services
2. Criticism of Government Programs
The latter part of the document shifts to a political critique of past Democratic administrations, particularly:
- The “Obama phone” program (Lifeline), which provided subsidized phones to low-income individuals.
- Allegations of fraud and abuse in the program, including a case where a Florida CEO was sentenced to prison and fined $128 million for defrauding the government.
- The piece connects this to broader claims of government waste and corruption, especially under President Obama.
