To borrow from former President Donald Trump, Venezuela is not sending their best.
Last week, bleeding-heart liberals came face to face with the consequences of their open-borders advocacy, when Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis delivered 50 illegal immigrants from Venezuela to the doorsteps of wealthy Democrats in sanctuary-city Martha’s Vineyard.
Liberals became unhinged, calling DeSantis a “kidnapper” and a “human trafficker” for essentially doing what President Joe Biden did and sending these alleged “asylum seekers” to Massachusetts – where they lasted 48 hours before being shipped off to a military base on Cape Cod.
Yet Breitbart News recently noted that Venezuela may be pranking Biden and America — with adverse and dire effects for U.S. citizens.
Breitbart on Sunday cited a Department of Homeland Security intelligence report, issued to Border Patrol agents, that indicated Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro “is purposely freeing inmates — including some convicted of murder, rape, and extortion.”
And he’s sending them to America.
“The intelligence report warns agents the freed prisoners have been seen within migrant caravans traveling from Tapachula, Mexico toward the U.S.-Mexico border as recently as July,” Breitbart columnist Randy Clark, a 32-year veteran of the Border Patrol, reported.

“The report does not state whether the released prison inmates were traveling as a cohesive group but does state it was commonly shared knowledge among migrants traveling to the United States within a caravan in July that many of the Venezuelan migrants in the group were convicts and included hardened criminals.”
DHS did not say specifically this was a “purposeful geopolitical move” designed to undermine U.S. national security.
But according to an unnamed DHS source, “The source says the task of identifying Venezuelans who have criminal records in their home country is nearly impossible. Of the thousands of Venezuelan migrants surrendering along the U.S.-Mexico border daily, most, according to the source, are being released into the United States. Without effective diplomatic relations with Venezuela, the source says access to criminal databases in that country simply does not exist.”
“Unless we apprehend someone who voluntarily tells us they have committed a violent crime in Venezuela, we can only guess, and that doesn’t work well,” the source told Clark. “They will more than likely be released.”
The DHS report is troubling if only because of the massive upswing in Venezuelan illegals arriving at the border.

Between October 2021 and July 2022, the first 10 months of the fiscal year, DHS reported “encountering” more than 130,000 Venezuelan immigrants entering the U.S. illegally.
For all of fiscal year 2020, the Border Patrol caught 5,000 illegal Venezuelan immigrants.
