A Jordanian was arrested after trying to break into the Quantico Marine Corps base, while in October a 27-year-old Senegalese man was detained by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the New York City while wanted for suspected terrorist activities.

As former President Donald Trump stated during a recent interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, a “new form of crime” is on the rise in the country “and it's called Biden migrant crime.”

“We have a new form, it's a new category, and it will be very, very serious for a long time. And we have to get them out of our country. We don't want them out, let them out of their jails and prisons. We don't want them in our country. It is not sustainable for any country,” the GOP leader added.
