WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Donald Trump delivered a sharp rebuke of the Biden administration’s immigration policies, claiming that 11,888 murderers entered the U.S. during President Joe Biden’s term — a figure he attributes to what he called the failure of the previous administration’s border enforcement.

Speaking on immigration enforcement, Trump stated:

“They’re looking for the criminals, the people that murdered. We have 11,888 [murderers] that came into our country under Biden — under our great 'Border Czar' ... we've already gotten a lot of them out.”

The comment appears to reference ongoing efforts by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and border agents to apprehend and deport individuals with criminal records, including violent offenders.

While Trump did not cite specific sources for the number he mentioned, the remark plays into a broader political narrative that criticizes what he calls the “open border” policies of the Biden administration.

Trump’s statement has drawn both support and skepticism — with critics calling for clarification and evidence, while supporters say it underscores the urgency of tougher immigration enforcement.
