Migrants Are Commiting 500% More Rapes and 400% More Murders Than Locals in This Western Country.

PULSE POINTS

âť“WHAT HAPPENED: A new study reveals the disproportionate role of foreigners in serious crimes in Spain, including rapes and murders, which have risen sharply in recent years.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Researchers from CEU-CEFAS Demographic Observatory, migrants, and Spanish citizens.

đź“ŤWHEN & WHERE: Crime data analyzed from 2010-2024 across Spain.

đź’¬KEY QUOTE: “91 percent of convicted rapists are migrants.” – CEU-CEFAS Report on crime in the Catalonia region.

🎯IMPACT: The study calls for stricter migration controls, additional police resources, and harsher penalties to address the rise in violent crimes.

IN FULL

Independent analysts are raising alarms about the involvement of foreigners in serious crime in Spain. According to a new study by the CEU-CEFAS Demographic Observatory, migrants are “significantly overrepresented” in the European Union (EU) member state’s most serious criminal statistics.

In Catalonia, the report notes that although migrants account for only about 17 percent of the population, “91 percent of convicted rapists are migrants.” Across Spain’s prison system, where foreign nationals make up around 31 percent of inmates, the study says they commit “500 percent more rapes and 414 percent more murders per capita than Spanish citizens.” Between 2019 and 2023, attempted murders nearly doubled, while penetrative rape cases climbed 143 percent, rising from 2,214 to 5,206. Illegal property occupation has also grown sharply, with foreigners accounting for more than half of arrests in such cases, a figure far exceeding their share of the population. The report attributes these trends to “imported crime” and calls for stricter migration controls, additional police and judicial resources, and tougher penalties.

Recent regional data appear to reinforce these concerns. In Barcelona, police figures for 2024 show that nearly 80 percent of arrests involved foreign nationals, particularly in theft, violent robbery, drug trafficking, and sexual assault. In the Basque Country, people of foreign origin accounted for nearly two-thirds of arrests so far in 2025, despite immigrants representing a relatively small portion of the population.

Comparable patterns have been reported elsewhere in Europe. In Austria, police data from last year showed that foreign nationals made up about 46.8 percent of all criminal suspects, even though they account for only around 20 percent of the population. In Germany, foreigners are also overrepresented in crime statistics. In Berlin, for instance, excluding immigration-related offenses, nearly 44 percent of recorded crimes involved foreign suspects, a figure that rises above 57 percent in more diverse cities such as Frankfurt. Notably, violent crime, including homicide, has increased in several German regions in recent years.

The United Kingdom has reported similar disparities. Police data indicate that foreign nationals account for a disproportionate share of sexual offense charges in London compared with their share of the population.

Trump Designates Colombian Cartel as Foreign Terrorist Group.

PULSE POINTS

âť“WHAT HAPPENED: The State Department designated the Colombian Clan del Golfo as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO).

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The U.S. State Department and the Colombian Clan del Golfo drug cartel.

đź“ŤWHEN & WHERE: The designation was announced on Tuesday, targeting activities linked to Colombia.

đź’¬KEY QUOTE: “The United States will continue to use all available tools to protect our nation and stop the campaigns of violence and terror committed by international cartels and transnational criminal organizations.” – State Department statement

🎯IMPACT: The move seeks to cut off funding and resources to the Clan del Golfo and curb its violent activities.

IN FULL

The U.S. State Department has officially designated Colombia’s Clan del Golfo drug cartel as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO), citing the group’s role in large-scale drug trafficking and sustained violence. According to the department, Clan del Golfo has thousands of members and finances its operations largely through cocaine trafficking. U.S. officials say the organization has carried out terrorist attacks against Colombian public officials, members of law enforcement, military personnel, and civilians.

“The United States will continue to use all available tools to protect our nation and stop the campaigns of violence and terror committed by international cartels and transnational criminal organizations,” the department stated in its announcement.

The designation is intended to restrict the group’s access to funding, weapons, and logistical support by cutting it off from the U.S. financial system and prohibiting Americans from providing material assistance to it. Clan del Golfo has long been considered one of the most powerful criminal organizations in Colombia, with influence over major cocaine trafficking routes and a history of armed confrontation with the Colombian state.

The move reflects a broader U.S. effort to treat major transnational criminal organizations as national security threats rather than solely law enforcement challenges. Earlier this year, the State Department designated several other groups as foreign terrorist organizations, including the Venezuela-based Tren de Aragua gang and Mexico’s Sinaloa Cartel. Those designations marked a significant escalation in how the U.S. government addresses international drug cartels and criminal networks.

The decision to apply terrorist labels to Mexican cartels prompted diplomatic tension, with Mexican officials warning Washington against actions they said could infringe on Mexico’s sovereignty. U.S. officials argue that the designations provide additional legal and financial tools to disrupt cartel operations, particularly those linked to drug trafficking, human smuggling, and violence that affects both the United States and its allies.

In a separate move later in the year, the U.S. government also announced plans to designate certain foreign-based groups linked to Antifa ideology as foreign terrorist organizations, signaling an expansion beyond traditional jihadist or insurgent groups.

Illegal Immigrant Gets 20-Year Sentence for Vicious Attack on ICE Agent.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A criminal illegal alien from Mexico was sentenced to 20 years in prison after assaulting a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer in Wichita, Kansas.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Diego Barron-Esquivel, U.S. Attorney Ryan A. Kriegshauser, and Homeland Security Investigations Kansas City Special Agent Charles J. Cole.

đź“ŤWHEN & WHERE: The sentencing took place on December 15 in Kansas following a guilty plea on December 3, 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Violence against law enforcement is completely unacceptable and will be dealt with very seriously,” said U.S. Attorney Ryan A. Kriegshauser.

🎯IMPACT: Federal authorities reaffirmed a zero-tolerance policy for violence against law enforcement, promising swift justice for offenders.

IN FULL

Federal prosecutors secured the maximum sentence of 20 years in prison for a criminal illegal immigrant from Mexico who brutally attacked a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer in Wichita, Kansas. Department of Justice (DOJ) and Homeland Security (DHS) officials emphasized that there is zero tolerance for violent assaults on federal law enforcement and immigration agents, warning that federal prosecutors will seek the maximum penalty under the law in such cases.

The sentencing of Diego Barron‑Esquivel, who violently punched and strangled an ICE officer with his own badge cord until the agent nearly lost consciousness, was described as a clear warning to those who threaten law enforcement. U.S. Attorney for the District of Kansas Ryan A. Kriegshauser condemned the attack as “completely unacceptable” and praised the courage of officers who risk their lives daily.

“Violence against law enforcement is completely unacceptable and will be dealt with very seriously,” said Kriegshauser, adding, “Our society would cease to function without brave officers enforcing the law. We owe these officers our thanks and our respect. This sentence shows how egregious the conduct was in this case.”

Meanwhile, Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Kansas City Special Agent in Charge Charles J. Cole underscored that anyone who lays a hand on federal agents will face swift and severe justice. Barron-Esquivel pleaded guilty earlier this month to intentionally assaulting and strangling an ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations officer while he was performing his official duties this past February.

According to DHS, Barron-Esquivel has an extensive and violent criminal record, including multiple charges for “domestic battery, multiple counts of violation of protection order, criminal damage to property, aggravated robbery, felony theft, transporting an open container, criminal restraint, possession of drug paraphernalia, and improper use of an automobile.”

Student Arrested Over Christmas Market ISIS Plot.

PULSE POINTS

âť“WHAT HAPPENED: A university student in Poland has been charged with plotting a terror attack at a Christmas market and seeking to establish contacts with the Islamic State (ISIS).

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Mateusz W., a 19-year-old student at the Catholic University of Lublin, and Polish authorities, including special services spokesman Jacek Dobrzynski.

đź“ŤWHEN & WHERE: The arrest took place in late November in Lublin, eastern Poland. The alleged attack was planned for a Christmas market in an unspecified Polish city.

đź’¬KEY QUOTE: “The man was very fascinated by Islam, sought to establish contacts with the Islamic State, and was preparing an attack in Poland, in one of the cities during a Christmas market.” – Jacek Dobrzynski.

🎯IMPACT: The arrest highlights ongoing security concerns at Christmas markets in Europe, which have been targeted by jihadists in multiple terror attacks in recent years.

IN FULL

Polish authorities have arrested a 19-year-old university student on suspicion of planning a terrorist attack on a Christmas market, officials said. Mateusz W., a student at the Catholic University of Lublin, was detained in late November after investigators concluded he had been preparing an attack that could have caused mass casualties.

During a search of his apartment in Lublin, officers seized data carriers and other items described by authorities as being “related to Islam.”

According to Jacek Dobrzynski, a spokesman for Poland’s special services, “The man was very fascinated by Islam, sought to establish contacts with the Islamic State, and was preparing an attack in Poland, in one of the cities during a Christmas market.” Investigators allege that Mateusz W. was preparing to use explosives and intended to join a terrorist organization.

Prosecutors have charged him with undertaking preparatory actions to carry out a terrorist attack that could have resulted in the death or serious injury of many people. A court has ordered that he remain in pretrial detention for three months while the investigation continues.

Christmas markets across Europe have faced heightened scrutiny from security services after a series of attacks and foiled plots in recent years. In December 2024, a car-ramming attack at a Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, killed six people and injured more than 200, making it one of the deadliest such attacks in recent memory. German prosecutors later brought numerous murder and attempted murder charges against the Saudi immigrant suspect.

Other European countries have also reported disrupted plots targeting Christmas markets, while some municipalities have canceled events altogether, citing concerns over security costs and the risk of Islamist terrorism. American investigators have similarly noted that attackers inspired by the Islamic State have studied past Christmas market attacks before carrying out attacks in the U.S.

In response to the continuing threat, several European governments, including Germany, have expanded security measures around Christmas markets. These measures have included concrete barriers to block vehicles, police checkpoints, increased patrols, and enhanced video surveillance aimed at preventing attacks during the Christmas season.

Obama Judge Faces Backlash for Praising Convicted Illegal Immigrant Rapist.

PULSE POINTS

âť“WHAT HAPPENED: An illegal immigrant convicted of raping a woman with cerebral palsy could walk free sooner than expected after a judge reduced his sentence.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Honduran illegal immigrant Edys Renan Membreño Díaz and U.S. District Court Judge Judith Levy.

đź“ŤWHEN & WHERE: Sentencing occurred in August, with appeals filed in October, in Michigan.

💬KEY QUOTE: “You’ve taken responsibility for that, expressed remorse for that, and you are serving a lengthy state sentence as punishment for that conduct.” – Judge Judith Levy

🎯IMPACT: Federal prosecutors are appealing the judge’s decision to reduce the sentence, citing its leniency and lack of weight on the violent crime.

IN FULL

U.S. District Court Judge Judith Levy, appointed to the bench by former President Barack Obama, is facing significant backlash over an inexplicable decision granting a light sentence to illegal immigrant Edys Renan Membreño Díaz, a 30-year-old Honduran national, convicted of raping a woman with cerebral palsy and cognitive delays. Membreño Díaz has faced multiple deportations and illegally re-entered the United States at least seven times.

Appointed as the first openly lesbian U.S. district judge in the Eastern District of Michigan by Barack Obama, Levy reduced Membreño DĂ­az’s sentence by two years, sparing him additional time in prison. During his sentencing in August, Levy praised the illegal immigrant, calling him an “ambassador for living up to our immigration restrictions.” Membreño DĂ­az was convicted of dragging his cognitively impaired victim into the laundry room of her apartment building before committing the sexual assault.

Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin criticized the decision, describing it as “unspeakable depravity” and “truly wicked.” Federal prosecutors have since appealed the ruling, with Assistant U.S. Attorney Meghan Sweeney Bean arguing that the sentence was “substantively unreasonable” and failed to address the severity of the crime adequately.

Membreño Díaz, who pleaded guilty to three sex crimes in Michigan in 2022, claimed during his sentencing. “I was drunk, and I apologize to everybody, to all the American citizens. I wish to go back to my country and not to come back to the United States.” He also claimed he would discourage others in Honduras from entering the U.S. illegally.

Judge Levy defended her decision, commending Membreño Díaz for supposedly taking responsibility for his family and for his work in the United States. “I commend you for supporting your family, for expressing your devotion to them, and for working here in the United States in jobs that Americans apparently do not want to work in,” Levy stated. Prosecutors say that the ruling downplays the gravity of his crimes.

Democrat Judge on Trial for Blocking Arrest of Illegal Immigrant.

PULSE POINTS

âť“WHAT HAPPENED: A Wisconsin judge is set to stand trial on charges of obstructing immigration enforcement by allegedly helping an illegal immigrant evade arrest.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Judge Hannah Dugan, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, and Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, an illegal immigrant from Mexico.

đź“ŤWHEN & WHERE: Incident occurred on April 18 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The trial begins December 15.

💬KEY QUOTE: Prosecutors claim Dugan acted “corruptly” by impeding Flores-Ruiz’s arrest and misleading law enforcement about the need for a judicial warrant.

🎯IMPACT: The trial highlights ongoing issues with activist judges, sanctuary state and city officials, and far-left activists who have attempted to interfere with and impede ICE enforcement actions.

IN FULL

Hannah Dugan, a Milwaukee County Circuit Court judge, is heading to trial and facing federal charges for allegedly obstructing immigration enforcement efforts. The charges stem from an incident on April 18, when Dugan was accused of helping an illegal immigrant, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, evade arrest by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

According to the indictment, Dugan diverted federal agents away from the hallway where they planned to arrest Flores-Ruiz after his court appearance on domestic violence charges. The judge allegedly escorted Flores-Ruiz and his attorney out through a non-public door, allowing him to temporarily avoid capture. Flores-Ruiz was later arrested outside the courthouse after a brief pursuit.

Prosecutors claim Dugan acted “corruptly” and misled federal agents by stating that they required a judicial warrant to make the arrest. Witnesses also described her as “visibly angry” upon learning of the agents’ presence. Dugan, who has pleaded not guilty, has been suspended from her judicial duties while the case proceeds.

Dugan’s defense argues that she followed courthouse policies and acted in good faith, citing prior incidents of controversy surrounding illegal immigration arrests in courthouses. Her lawyers plan to argue that she notified a supervisor about the ICE agents, as instructed by policy.

Person of Interest in Brown University Shooting Released.

PULSE POINTS

âť“WHAT HAPPENED: A person of interest detained over the shooting at Brown University that left two dead and nine injured has been released as law enforcement continues to search for the gunman.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Rhode Island Attorney General Peter Neronha, Providence Police Chief Oscar Perez, Providence Mayor Brett Smiley, and Rhode Island Governor Daniel McKee.

đź“ŤWHEN & WHERE: The shooting occurred at Brown University, with updates provided during a press conference on Sunday.

💬KEY QUOTE: “There was some degree of evidence that pointed to this individual, but that evidence needed to be corroborated and confirmed.” – Rhode Island Attorney General Peter Neronha

🎯IMPACT: Law enforcement continues to search for the gunman, while officials claim there is no ongoing threat.

IN FULL

Law enforcement officials in Rhode Island announced the release of an individual initially detained as a person of interest in a shooting at Brown University that has left two dead. At a press conference late Sunday, Rhode Island Attorney General Peter Neronha stated that while initial evidence led authorities to the detained individual, further investigation pointed in a different direction.

“There was some degree of evidence that pointed to this individual, but that evidence needed to be corroborated and confirmed. That evidence now points in a different direction. So what that means is that this person of interest needs to be, and should be released,” Neronha stated. The release of the person of interest came just one day after an unidentified gunman entered an engineering classroom and fired on students studying for a final exam.

Neronha also criticized the leak of the detained individual’s identity to the media, calling it “unfortunate” and adding, “It’s hard to put that back in the bottle, OK? So we’re going to proceed very carefully here. There is too much at stake for the victims of this horrific crime and their families to take chances with respect to this investigation.”

Providence Police Chief Oscar Perez clarified that the individual released was not the person shown in surveillance footage shared by the police. “Authorities are still looking for the individual captured on video,” he noted. At the same press conference, Providence Mayor Brett Smiley reassured the public, saying, “We have not received any credible or specific threats to the Providence community.”

Rhode Island Governor Daniel McKee (D) confirmed that he had informed Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel about the release of the person of interest and that federal resources would remain available for the ongoing investigation. Law enforcement continues to search for the gunman responsible for the attack.

DC Police Chief Falsified Data to Fudge Crime Stats, Says Oversight Committee.

PULSE POINTS

âť“WHAT HAPPENED: Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) Chief Pamela Smith has been accused of manipulating crime data to maintain the appearance of low crime, according to a new report released by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: D.C. Police Chief Pamela Smith, commanders of all seven D.C. patrol districts, Representative James Comer (R-KY), and the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

đź“ŤWHEN & WHERE: The report was released on Sunday, and Chief Smith recently announced her resignation, effective at the end of December 2025, in Washington, D.C.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Her planned resignation at the end of the month should not be seen as a voluntary choice, but as an inevitable consequence that should have occurred much earlier. Chief Smith should resign today.” — James Comer

🎯IMPACT: The report alleges a toxic internal culture, manipulated crime data, and an erosion of public trust in the D.C. police department under Chief Smith’s leadership.

IN FULL

The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform has accused Washington, D.C., Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) Chief Pamela Smith of manipulating department data to maintain the appearance of low crime rates. The allegations surfaced in an interim staff report released on Sunday by the committee, which included testimony from commanders across all seven D.C. patrol districts and a former commander on suspended leave.

According to the report, Smith punished officers who reported accurate crime numbers and fostered a toxic work environment. Commanders allege that Smith pressured them to downgrade crimes to less serious offenses to keep them out of public crime databases. One commander recounted being instructed to reclassify a shooting as “endangerment with a firearm,” which made the incident invisible to the public.

Smith’s resignation, announced last week and effective at the end of December, follows two years as D.C.’s police chief. While Smith cited personal reasons for her departure, the House committee’s report suggests her resignation is tied to its investigation. “The Committee is releasing this interim report in light of Chief Smith’s resignation to add context to this decision, to protect witnesses from retaliation, and to inform both District residents and the American public at large,” the report stated. Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) went further, stating: “Her planned resignation at the end of the month should not be seen as a voluntary choice, but as an inevitable consequence that should have occurred much earlier. Chief Smith should resign today.”

The investigation also highlighted concerns over the Secure D.C. bill, which created new categories of intermediate offenses that the report claims Smith exploited to manipulate crime data. Commanders described a culture of fear under Smith’s leadership, with one saying, “Commanders frequently feared for their jobs when having to brief Chief Smith on a rise in crime.”

House Oversight Chairman Comer, who launched the investigation in August, criticized Smith’s tenure, saying, “Every single person who lives, works, or visits the District of Columbia deserves a safe city, yet it’s now clear the American people were deliberately kept in the dark about the true crime rates in our nation’s capital.”

African Migrant Faces Charges After ‘Kidnapping’ of Homeland Security Agent in Walz’s Minnesota.

PULSE POINTS

âť“WHAT HAPPENED: A Nigerian migrant and a female accomplice were charged with assaulting a Homeland Security agent, following an incident that was initially described as a “kidnapping.”

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Oluwadamilola Ogooluwa Bamigboye, 24, and Rekeya Lionesha Lee Frazier, 23, along with a Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agent.

đź“ŤWHEN & WHERE: The incident occurred in the Twin Cities area, involving Plymouth and New Hope, Minnesota.

đź’¬KEY QUOTE: “Plymouth police responded to 911 calls regarding individuals in a vehicle moving from Plymouth into New Hope. Upon arriving at the New Hope City Center, Plymouth police officers confirmed that the incident stemmed from federal law enforcement activities, and Plymouth officers cleared themselves from the incident,” said the Plymouth Police Department.

🎯IMPACT: Federal assault charges have been filed against the suspects, and the agent involved was safely recovered.

IN FULL

Authorities in Minnesota have charged a 24-year-old Nigerian, Oluwadamilola Ogooluwa Bamigboye, and 23-year-old Twin Cities resident Rekeya Lionesha Lee Frazier with assaulting a federal agent in an incident that was initially reported as the “kidnapping” of a Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) officer.

Court documents show that HSI agents were conducting surveillance at a Plymouth apartment complex looking for Bamigboye, who had overstayed his visa. When Bamigboye and Frazier pulled up to the site in a car, agents approached, and the Nigerian leapt back into the car and allegedly told Frazier to drive off.

As they tried to flee, one agent leapt into the front passenger seat to stop the car while another attempted to pull Bamigboye out. The second agent was shoved out of the vehicle, but the first remained inside as the car sped away. A third agent pursued while calling 911; Frazier also dialed 911, claiming they were driving to the police station.

The vehicle was stopped at the New Hope Police Department, where the trapped agent was freed unharmed. “Plymouth police responded to 911 calls regarding individuals in a vehicle moving from Plymouth into New Hope. Upon arriving at the New Hope City Center, Plymouth police officers confirmed that the incident stemmed from federal law enforcement activities, and Plymouth officers cleared themselves from the incident,” the Plymouth Police Department said in a statement.

Bamigboye and Frazier now face federal charges of assault on a federal officer. The HSI agent was recovered without injury.
