Eight Alleged Migrants Jailed for Looting in Flood-Ravaged State.

Eight alleged migrants have been arrested for looting in an area of eastern Tennessee that has been severely impacted by flooding and mudslides caused by Hurricane Helene. The men, arrested on Saturday, faced their first court appearance on Monday.

Five of the men are being charged with aggravated burglary. Washington County law enforcement says they broke into occupied structures to rob individuals impacted by the catastrophic flooding. They have been identified as Albin Nahun Vega-Rapalo, 24; David Bairon Rapalo-Rapalo, 37; Kevin Noe Martinez-Lopez, 25; Marvin Hernandez-Martinez, 43; and Dayln Gabriel Guillen Guillen, 37.

Meanwhile, an additional three men have been charged with burglary after being caught looting unoccupied buildings. The three are identified as Jesus Leodan Garcia-Peneda, 51; Josue Berardo Ortis-Valdez, 30; and Ersy Leonel Ortis-Valdez, 33.

“Kamala [Harris] and [Joe] Biden don’t have the resources to rescue Americans [but they do] have the resources to import migrants to loot them,” commented Stephen Miller, a former advisor to Donald Trump.

APOCALYPTIC STORM DAMAGE.

A large swath of the United States, almost 500 miles wide and stretching from Florida through Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, southern Virginia, and Kentucky, was devastatingly impacted by Hurricane Helene over the weekend. Making landfall in the Florida panhandle, the storm’s high winds caused extensive damage along the Gulf Coast.

As the storm moved north, catastrophic flooding occurred as Helene dumped historic amounts of rain throughout the Appalachian Mountains. Consequently, millions are without power, and hundreds are believed dead. Mudslides and flash floods destroyed numerous small towns dotting the mountain valleys throughout western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee.

The Biden-Harris government has been the target of sharp criticism for its slow response to the crisis. President Joe Bident spent the weekend with family at his Delaware beach home. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris attended several campaign fundraisers on the West Coast, only returning to Washington, D.C., on Monday.

Machete-Wielding Syrian Migrant Arrested After Rampage Leaves 31 Injured.

A 41-year-old Syrian national has been apprehended following a series of violent incidents on Saturday evening. Local authorities in Essen, Germany, report that the man used a machete and a van to carry out attacks across the city, which resulted in injuries to 31 people, including several children. The condition of some of the injured, especially the children, remains critical.

The chaos commenced around 5:10 PM when the assailant, who was pictured carrying a Palestinian flag, set fire to a residential building at the intersection of Altenessener Strasse and Pielsticker Strasse. Following this, another building on Zollvereinstrasse was also set alight. Residents made desperate efforts to rescue individuals trapped in the burning structures, with some onlookers capturing poignant images of parents handing their children to rescuers. Official reports from the police indicated 29 injuries caused by the fires, while the fire department counted 31 total injuries.

After starting the fires, the attacker drove his van to Katernberger Strasse, where he rammed it into a greengrocer’s shop twice. Exiting the vehicle, he then threatened passers-by with a machete. People in the vicinity attempted to defend themselves by throwing objects at the assailant.

Police were quickly called to the scene and found the man in a shed near the greengrocer’s shop. He was cornered and, following a tense standoff during which officers warned him to lie down, subdued without further violence.

ESTRANGED WIFE WAS TARGET?

“This was all the work of a man who may not have been able to cope with the separation from his ex-wife. Many people were seriously injured, and apparently, he didn’t care about the damage his actions caused,” said CDU Interior Minister Herbert Reul of North Rhine-Westphalia following the attacks.

The National Pulse reported in August that one in 10 Syrians now live in Germany, with nearly half taking state welfare assistance.

Violent Crime EXPLODES in Europe’s ‘Shining Example’ of Mass Migration.

In 2023 alone, 195 shootings and 72 bombings have resulted in 30 deaths in the European Union (EU) member state of Sweden. Migration-background gangs are responsible for much of the criminal activity, with gang members from Sweden recently killed in Muslim-majority countries like Bosnia, Iraq, and Turkey, which have exported a significant number of their nationals to the Nordic country. The gang activity is escaping containment within Sweden’s borders, with neighboring countries like Norway and Denmark suffering from a spillover of Swedish gang activity.

The left media, as well as liberal politicians and parties in the Western world, have long attempted to portray Sweden as a “shining example” on the topic of mass migration. The reality, however, has become extremely dark.

“They would like to be this shining example: have a lot of refugees coming to Sweden, [and] have a good economy, and don’t have any right-wing, populist parties in parliament. But that just fell apart,” opined Patrik Öhberg, a professor of political science at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden.

In Norway, former Justice Minister Sylvi Listhaug warns that the country must avoid falling into “Swedish conditions,” referring to the growing gang violence. Norwegian police suspect that a bombing in Drøbak, near the capital of Oslo, is the work of Sweden-based gangs, now believed to operate in all 12 Norwegian police districts.

Danish authorities have also reported a rise in Sweden-based criminals crossing into their country. In early September, Danish authorities charged two Swedish teenagers with attempted murder. Danish police say organized crime gangs operating in both Sweden and Denmark recruited the teens. Danish Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard expressed concern over the recruitment of young “child soldiers” to carry out attacks on Danish soil.

Swedish and Danish officials held emergency talks in August, with Swedish Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer acknowledging the severity of the issue and promising more decisive action.

Sweden’s center-right government, backed by the populist Sweden Democrats (SD), is increasing penalties for gun crimes and introducing stop-and-search zones. It also plans to offer migrants $34,000 to return to their homelands.

Stricter asylum policies since populists gained influence in government saw migration figures turn negative this year, but this may have been a statistical trick. Many issues with social division and lack of integration remain endemic.

Biden-Harris Released 13,000+ Convicted Killers Into the U.S.

The Biden-Harris government has released over 13,000 murderers, over 5,000 sexual assault convicts, and over 662,000 criminals overall into the United States. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) Deputy Director Patrick J. Lechleitner released the statistics, which Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) published on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday, September 27.

According to the ICE report, 13,099 illegal alien convicted killers have been released into the United States, along with 15,811 criminals convicted of sexual assault, another 9,461 convicted of other sex offenders, 2,521 kidnappers, and 56,533 dangerous drug offenders, among others.

Lechleitner claims that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has “removed or returned more than 893,000 individuals” since mid-May last year. However, he also admits that a total of 662,566 illegals with criminal histories have illegally entered the United States and remain in the country. Of the total still in the U.S. illegally, just under 15,000 are currently being detained by ICE, while the remainder remain at large.

“As of July 21, 2024, there were 662,566 noncitizens with criminal histories on ICE’s national docket—13,099 criminally convicted MURDERS! Americans deserve to be SAFE in our own communities,” Rep. Gonzales said.

Under the border policies of the Biden-Harris regime, millions of illegals have flowed into the United States, including notorious gang members like those belonging to Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua. Many illegals have committed heinous crimes after entering the country, with several high-profile murders linked to illegals, including the killing of nursing student Laken Riley in February of this year.

In one notable case, the Biden-Harris regime released a Peruvian gang leader wanted in connection to 23 murders into the country earlier this year. Gianfranco Torres-Navarro, lead of the “Los Killers,” allegedly specializes in contract killings.

Town Allocates $10M More to Combat Venezuelan Gang the Media Said Wasn’t A Problem.

Local leaders in Aurora, Colorado, are planning to increase the police budget by $10 million to combat the rise in international gang activity and retail crime after previously downplaying the impact of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua on the city. The total budget for law enforcement will reach nearly $165 million in 2025, with police currently understaffed and struggling to cope with rising levels of migrant crime.

Aurora has become a focus of media attention after a viral video in August showed armed gang members stalking through an apartment complex. Former President Donald J. Trump has highlighted the issues in Aurora as an example of rampant migrant crime under the Biden-Harris government. However, Colorado’s Democratic Governor Jared Polis has downplayed the issue, claiming conservatives are exaggerating the situation, and some Republican-in-name-only (RINO) officials in the city are joining Polis in minimizing the situation.

Meanwhile, federal authorities confirm Tren de Aragua was involved in the apartment complex situation, and the moves to increase the police budget clearly indicate that Aurora’s situation is getting worse.

Jessica Vaughan of the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) warns, “We have next to no vetting for the Venezuelans who are entering the country because we have no relationship with the government of Venezuela,” with “no way of knowing whether they were in prison in Venezuela.”

Nevertheless, Venezuelans are among the nationalities fast-tracked for entry into the United States by the Biden-Harris governments under its Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans (CHNV) parole program.

Illegal Caught at Border & Freed by Biden-Harris Regime Kills in Maryland.

An illegal alien who was freed by the Biden-Harris regime after being detained at the southern border has been arrested and charged with murdering an 18-year-old girl in Maryland. The 23-year-old from El Salvador, Gerber Luis Sanchez Centeno, is charged with the first-degree murder of an 18-year-old woman, Dania Cruz-Mejia, also from El Salvador. The incident occurred in Montgomery County, Maryland, a self-declared sanctuary county.

Authorities state that Sanchez Centeno and Cruz-Mejia had been in a relationship for two years before both entered the United States. According to police, Cruz-Mejia was murdered on September 18 during a dispute with Sanchez Centeno. After an investigation, police apprehended Sanchez Centeno two days later. He is currently held in Montgomery County Jail without the option of bail.

Records indicate that Cruz-Mejia entered the U.S. earlier this year. Sanchez Centeno crossed the southern border on June 2, where he was detained by Border Patrol agents near Santa Teresa, New Mexico. On that same day, he was placed in the Alternatives to Detention (ATD) program, fitted with a GPS ankle monitor, and released. Federal data shows that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) had available detention beds at the time of his release.

By early August, Sanchez Centeno had absconded from the monitoring program, leading DHS to terminate his enrollment. The practice of releasing migrants from ATD monitoring mere weeks after initiation has been on the rise under the current administration.

The case comes just after it was revealed that members of the notorious Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua were also released by the Biden-Harris regime into the United States after being detained at the border earlier this year. Another illegal arrested in June for the murder of a 12-year-old girl in Texas was also caught and released by the border officials.

Illegal Charged with Killing Cop was on Probation for Assault, Had DWI Record.

An illegal alien charged with killing a Missouri police officer while driving drunk without a license was at large in the country despite having a criminal record. Ramon A. Chavez-Rodriguez, 24, was on probation for second-degree domestic assault when he killed St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department Officer David Lee. The Honduran also had a prior driving while intoxicated (DWI) conviction.

The Biden-Harris government is still declining to issue an immigration detainer against Chavez-Rodriguez, according to local officials. “Homeland Security was notified that he was arrested, that he was charged, and he was in this country illegally. Their answer is they’re not going to issue a detainer—and a detainer is something that would tell us to hold him until they could get him—but they weren’t going to do that, because he’d already been in the system back in 2020,” explained St. Charles County Prosecutor Joe McCulloch.

Biden-Harris Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas issued guidance to federal authorities in 2021 that being in the U.S. illegally “should not alone be the basis” for detaining and deporting migrants, meaning people like Chavez-Rodriguez are generally left undisturbed once they reach the country’s interior until they begin committing crimes.

Even if they are charged or convicted, Democrat sanctuary policies restricting cooperation with federal immigration officials allow many criminal migrants to evade deportation.

Wave of Arson Hits 9 Churches in Just 3 Weeks.

Nine churches were the targets of arson attacks over a span of three weeks from late August to mid-September in Europe, according to the Observatory of Intolerance and Discrimination Against Christians in Europe. Three of the incidents, targeting Catholic places of worship, occurred in the Netherlands.

The sequence of recent arson began on August 25 in Bad Wörishofen, Germany. In that instance, both the church and its altar cloth were set ablaze, resulting in damage valued at several thousand euros, as mentioned in the statement.

Another notable incident occurred on September 2 at the Church of the Immaculate Conception in Saint-Omer, France. A suspect linked to this fire, with extreme left links and a history of sharing anti-Christian and pro-Islamic State content on social media. They have reportedly made previous attempts to set fire to 15 churches.

The most recent attack took place on September 15 at St. Anthony the Abbot Church in Wijchen, in the Netherlands. Here, attackers destroyed statues and set personal and devotional objects on fire.

Alongside these events in Europe, the United States has also seen a rise in vandalism and attacks on Catholic churches. Since May 2020, there have been 452 such incidents, with 57 reported this year alone on the CatholicVoteviolence tracker.

The Biden-Harris FBI has targeted traditional Catholics as extremists despite Joe Biden’s claims to be a Catholic. Vice President Kamala Harris is less concerned about keeping up appearances and is snubbing Catholics by skipping the annual Al Smith Dinner.

A Gangbanger vs Migrant Gang War is Looming in Chicago.

Chicago residents warn escalating tensions and violence between local gangs and newly arrived Venezuelan migrants, alleged to be members of the notorious Tren de Aragua gang, are going to trigger an uncontrollable turf war. “When the black gangs here get fed up with the illegalities and criminal activities of these migrants or non-citizens, the city of Chicago is going to go up in flames, and there will be nothing the National Guard or the government can do about it when the bloodshed hits the streets. It’ll be blacks against migrants,” according to Tyrone Muhammed, a former gangbanger.

Reporters have seen “police reports indicating sex trafficking, child porn, drugs, carjackings, weapons, and excessive spousal violence have occurred at four downtown shelters” in the sanctuary city. In one higher profile incident earlier this month, police responded at an apartment building where 32 Venezuelans were reportedly brandishing weapons.

Since 2022, approximately 48,000 migrants have arrived in Chicago, with a substantial number originating from Venezuela. The provision of welfare benefits to these new arrivals has intensified tensions, as some locals believe these resources should support existing community members.

The displacement of long-term residents by migrants has become a concern in Chicago and other areas like Springfield, Ohio. In Springfield, migrants, often supported by taxpayer funds, sometimes pay rents that local residents cannot afford.

Yet ANOTHER Illegal Migrant Driver Kills an American.

An illegal immigrant driving without a valid license has been arrested for the murder of a 23-year-old musician in Pittsburg after his vehicle collided with the victim’s car at a stoplight. Allegheny County authorities announced they have apprehended and charged 25-year-old Saul Rivera-Ramirez in connection with the death of Christian Sluka. The incident occurred on Saturday in the Dormont suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

According to the police report, on the evening of September 21, 2024, Sluka was stationary at a red light when his vehicle was allegedly struck by Rivera-Ramirez, who was purportedly driving a Ford Taurus without authorization. Sluka succumbed to his injuries at the scene of the accident.

Rivera-Ramirez faces multiple charges, including vehicular homicide and driving without a license. Police confirmed that Rivera-Ramirez is not a U.S. citizen and lacks legal documentation to reside in the country but did not disclose his country of origin. Instead, police deferred further inquiries regarding his immigration status to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE).

The killing is just the latest by an illegal or asylum seeker driving without a valid license. It comes just months after a Haitian migrant in Springfield, Ohio, killed a young boy after ramming into a local school bus. Nathan Clark, the father of the victim, later stated that he wished the killer had been a white man so that conservatives would not talk about the case.

“I bet you never thought anyone would ever say something so blunt. But if that guy killed my 11-year-old son, the incessant group of hate-spewing people would leave us alone,” he said.
