In President Donald Trump’s first year back in office, over 2.5 million illegal aliens have left the country, due in large part to the administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration and extensive deportation program.

In its deportation push, the Department of Homeland Security has prioritized targeting violent criminal illegals. DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin has accused the media of «whitewashing» facts about the arrests of illegal immigrants with violent criminal histories and portraying them as victims. 

«As the media whitewashes the facts, day in and day out, our brave men and women of ICE risk their lives for the American people,» McLaughlin said.

From a «habitual» child predator to a beheading incident to another who strangled a taxicab driver to death, here are ten of the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens arrested with violent charges this year.

1. Mohamed Sabry Soliman – Colorado Molotov cocktail terror attack

On June 1, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, an Egyptian national living in the U.S. on an expired visa, was arrested on federal charges of first-degree murder, first-degree assault and a hate crime after allegedly setting fire to people at a pro-Israel event in Boulder.

Authorities described the attack as terrorism-inspired violence.

According to the federal indictment, Soliman threw two Molotov cocktails at event attendees, shouting, «Free Palestine!» Per the indictment, he was armed with a backpack weed sprayer that contained a flammable liquid and a black plastic container that held at least 18 Molotov cocktails.

The incident was caught on video and posted to X by DHS.

According to the agency, Garduno-Galvez had been previously deported and has a criminal history, including grand theft and a DUI.

3. Gabriel Hurtado-Cariaco Nebraska Tren de Aragua terrorist

On June 20, DHS announced that ICE arrested Gabriel Hurtado-Cariaco, a Venezuelan illegal immigrant and member of the infamous Tren de Aragua gang, which was designated a «foreign terrorist organization» by the Trump administration. 

According to DHS, during an immigration enforcement operation in Bellevue, Nebraska, Hurtado-Cariaco launched a «brutal and premeditated assault» on a female ICE Homeland Security Investigations special agent and an FBI agent. The agency said that Hurtado-Cariaco threw the ICE agent to the ground, slammed her head into the pavement, ripped off her body armor, and made repeated and physical violent contact. The agent survived but sustained serious injuries to her head and arm and was treated at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. 

Though Hurtado-Cariaco fled the scene, he was picked up hours later and charged with attempted murder of a federal officer and assault of a federal officer with infliction of bodily injury. He entered the country illegally in 2023.

Democrat darling Talarico called out for making sixth-grade public students write ‘Obama memoirs’

Published

on


NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Democrat darling and Texas Senate candidate James Talarico is taking heat after it was discovered that, as a public school teacher in San Antonio, he made his sixth-grade students write «Obama memoirs» celebrating his election.

Corey DeAngelis, a school choice advocate and research fellow at the Heritage Foundation, called the assignment «disqualifying» for a Senate hopeful in Texas.

In a Facebook post by Talarico dated Nov. 13, 2012, he announced, «Today, we finished writing our Obama memoirs,» explaining that «students wrote a memoir of Election Night from the point of view of a member of the Obama family.»

One of the memoirs shared by Talarico showed one of his students writing as if they were former President Barack Obama’s child, saying, «I was crying when my father was giving his speech» and praising «those lovely words that came out of his mouth» during his election night speech.

The Democratic Party has high hopes that Talarico, a progressive state representative, can flip a critical Senate seat blue and become the first Democratic senator from Texas in decades. Since winning the party’s nomination, however, many have called out his history of progressive statements, including saying «God is nonbinary» and using the Bible to justify abortion.

In another Facebook post, dated Nov. 16, 2012, Talarico shared an image of a poster board full of Obama memoirs with a banner reading «Mr. Talarico’s Wall of Fame.» The display featured more than a dozen memoirs along with photos of Obama and his family, as well as presidential seals and Obama’s campaign emblem. Talarico commented, «Our Wall of Fame has been updated with our awesome Obama Family Memoirs!»

The Obama memoirs are not the only posts from Talarico’s teacher account drawing criticism. Some have also taken issue with a Sept. 14, 2011, post depicting a classroom «free thinker» display. Among the figures labeled as free thinkers were Obama, Bill Gates, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor and Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro.

Other figures included in the display ranged from Ludwig van Beethoven to Frida Kahlo to Jay-Z. Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling was also included. Not included, however, were any Republican or conservative leaders.

Some have also criticized Talarico for a Sept. 4, 2012, post in which he encourages students to watch the Democratic National Convention to see Castro, a former mayor of San Antonio, give the keynote speech.

Conservative commentator Steve Guest slammed Talarico for this, writing on X, «What Talarico was doing as an ‘educator.’» 

The National Republican Senatorial Committee also chimed in, writing, «James Talarico made his public school students write ‘Obama memoirs’ and encouraged them to watch the DNC What else was he telling Texas kids in his classroom?»

A Talarico spokesman responded to conservative critics in a statement to Fox News Digital. 

«John Cornyn, Ken Paxton, and the billionaires who prop them up are scared of James Talarico for good reason: our campaign is building a movement poised to change the politics of this state and take power back for working people,» press secretary JT Ennis said. «While they spend their time lobbing stale attacks to mislead Texans, we are uniting the people of Texas to win in November.»

Talarico will be facing off against either incumbent Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, or state Attorney General Ken Paxton this November. Cornyn and Paxton are currently locked in a bitter primary runoff that will come to a head this May.

14 presos políticos fueron excarcelados en Cuba tras un anuncio oficial del régimen (ANAMELY RAMOS)

La ONG Prisoners Defenders elevó a 14 la cifra de presos por motivos políticos excarcelados en Cuba, tras el anuncio del régimen de la isla sobre el inicio de un proceso para liberar a 51 reclusos.

Estas primeras excarcelaciones se produjeron en coincidencia con la confirmación del diálogo entre autoridades cubanas y representantes de la administración estadounidense.

14 personas encarceladas por motivos políticos fueron excarceladas en Cuba tras el anuncio oficial de un proceso para liberar a 51 reclusos. Según Prisoners Defenders, los excarcelados no son opositores de alto perfil, sino ciudadanos que participaron en las protestas del 11 de julio de 2021.

Entre ellos figura Adael Jesús Leyva Díaz, de 29 años, quien cumplía una condena de 13 años por sedición. “Feliz, contento de estar con la familia”, expresó a EFE tras regresar a su hogar en el barrio habanero de Arroyo Naranjo, luego de salir del presidio de trabajos forzados Zona 0 del Combinado del Este.

Leyva Díaz explicó que debe buscar empleo para sostener a sus hijos y cuidar a su madre, y que la excarcelación no implica el fin de su condena, sino un beneficio condicionado al cumplimiento de requisitos.

Prisoners Defenders detalló que las excarcelaciones no constituyen indultos. Son permisos temporales bajo vigilancia y con el compromiso de mantener buena conducta hasta completar la pena.

El informe mensual de la organización reporta que Cuba cerró febrero con 1.214 personas encarceladas por motivos políticos, el mayor registro desde el inicio del monitoreo penitenciario de la organización.

Los beneficiados tienen entre 26 y 52 años, todos varones, y recibieron condenas de entre 9 y 14 años por delitos como atentado, desacato, desórdenes públicos, sabotaje y sedición.

Amnistía Internacional denunció el uso de los presos políticos “como fichas de cambio en un juego político” y exigió la liberación “inmediata e incondicional” de todas las personas encarceladas por motivos políticos en Cuba. Justicia 11J consideró que “la única solución compatible con los derechos humanos es la liberación plena e incondicional de todas las personas encarceladas por motivos políticos”.

Las excarcelaciones en Cuba han tenido precedentes tras gestiones diplomáticas, muchas veces con la mediación del Vaticano.

La última excarcelación masiva de presos en la isla ocurrió en enero de 2025, cuando 553 personas recuperaron la libertad en el marco de un acuerdo con la administración estadounidense del ex mandatario Joe Biden, facilitado por la mediación del Vaticano.

En ese entonces, la Casa Blanca retiró a Cuba de la lista de países patrocinadores del terrorismo. Tras la llegada de Donald Trump a la presidencia de Estados Unidos, el acercamiento diplomático se interrumpió y Washington reincorporó a Cuba en la lista negra.

“Estas cifras reflejan una realidad preocupante: la criminalización absoluta de la libertad de expresión y la persecución de quienes reclaman cambios políticos en Cuba a manos de un régimen criminal de lesa humanidad en sus últimos estertores, cuya única herramienta de control del poder es la represión más inhumana”, resaltó.

La guerra en Medio Oriente redujo el tránsito por el Estrecho de Ormuz a 77 barcos en marzo

Published

Sólo 77 barcos atravesaron el Estrecho de Ormuz en marzo, una cifra muy inferior a los 1.229 tránsitos registrados en el mismo período del año anterior, según datos de Lloyd’s List Intelligence.

La guerra en Medio Oriente provoca una fuerte caída en el paso de embarcaciones por una de las vías marítimas más relevantes para el transporte de energía a nivel mundial.

De acuerdo con Lloyd’s List Intelligence, la mayoría de los buques que lograron cruzar pertenecen a la denominada flota fantasma, integrada por barcos antiguos, con condiciones deficientes, sin seguro adecuado y propietarios poco identificables, generalmente asociados a Rusia e Irán.

La consultora marítima precisó que los buques vinculados al régimen iraní representan el 26% del tráfico en la zona, seguidos por embarcaciones de Grecia con el 13% y de China con el 12%.

Más de la mitad de los buques cisterna y gaseros que transitan por la zona son flotas paralelas”, afirmó Bridget Diakun, analista senior de Lloyd’s List Intelligence. “Estos barcos están muy acostumbrados a las interrupciones”, añadió Diakun, y sostuvo que por ese motivo “es más probable que intenten la travesía”.

El Cuerpo de la Guardia Revolucionaria Islámica (CGRI) del país persa mantiene prácticamente cerrado el estrecho, que limita con Irán y por donde circula aproximadamente el 20% del suministro mundial de petróleo. Desde comienzos de mes, 20 buques comerciales —nueve de ellos petroleros— fueron atacados o sufrieron incidentes, de acuerdo con la Agencia Británica de Operaciones de Comercio Marítimo. La Organización Marítima Internacional confirmó 16 incidentes en la región, de los cuales ocho involucran a petroleros.

El nuevo líder supremo de Irán, Mojtaba Khamenei, manifestó el jueves: “Sin duda alguna, hay que recurrir al bloqueo del estrecho de Ormuz”. Esta decisión pretende afectar la economía global y ejercer presión sobre Estados Unidos. Según Diakun, “la principal conclusión es que… Irán sigue exportando”.

Por otra parte, la agencia de noticias AFP contabilizó cerca de 40 embarcaciones que cruzaron el Estrecho de Ormuz desde el inicio del conflicto, tomando en cuenta solo aquellos buques que mantuvieron encendidos sus transpondedores AIS, el sistema de identificación automática.

El jefe de asuntos humanitarios de las Naciones Unidas, Tom Fletcher, exigió el viernes que se autorice el tránsito seguro de ayuda humanitaria a través del estrecho, afectado por las interrupciones en el tráfico marítimo durante el conflicto.

“Se debe permitir el paso seguro de la ayuda humanitaria a través del estrecho de Ormuz”, afirmó Fletcher en un comunicado, y advirtió que “millones de personas corren peligro” si continúan las restricciones.

Un buque de propiedad turca logró atravesar la zona con autorización de las autoridades iraníes, informó el viernes el ministro de Transportes de Turquía, Abdulkadir Uraloglu. “Tenemos 15 buques de propiedad turca en el estrecho de Ormuz y pudimos permitir el paso de uno de ellos tras obtener el permiso de las autoridades iraníes”, declaró Uraloglu a periodistas el jueves por la noche, según declaraciones difundidas el viernes.

El estrecho de Ormuz constituye una ruta marítima central para el comercio global y permanece cerrado por decisión de Irán tras el ataque de Israel y Estados Unidos el 28 de febrero.

A su vez, la angustia de los marineros que esperan pasar por la zona en conflixto se apoderó de las redes sociales. “Todos los días en el barco veo lanzamientos de misiles y oigo explosiones, lo que me hace sentir en peligro”.

Así describió Wang Shang, marinero chino de 32 años, la situación en la que permanece varado en el Golfo Pérsico. Su embarcación se encuentra imposibilitada de cruzar el estrecho de Ormuz, bloqueado desde hace casi dos semanas después de los ataques de Estados Unidos e Israel contra Irán.

Wang Shang relató sus experiencias a través de vídeos publicados en Douyin, la versión china de TikTok. “Estoy preocupado porque ayer la sala de máquinas de un buque fue alcanzada por un dron iraní a solo dos millas náuticas de mi embarcación, aproximadamente a 3.600 metros, lo cual es muy cerca”, expresó Wang.
