During a recent presidential debate, President Joe Biden made headlines for seemingly dismissing concerns about illegal immigrant crime by pointing out that women can also be victims of violence within their own families. His comments drew swift criticism from conservatives, who accused him of downplaying the very real dangers posed by criminal immigrants.
Biden’s remarks came in response to a question about abortion, during which he brought up the issue of women being raped by their in-laws, spouses, brothers, and sisters. While the president’s intention may have been to highlight the broader issue of violence against women, many felt that his comments were a deflection from the specific question about illegal immigrant crime.

President Biden’s opponents, including former President Donald Trump, were quick to pounce on his comments, arguing that they were a clear attempt to minimize the impact of illegal immigration on public safety. They pointed to cases like the murder of Jocelyn Nungaray, allegedly committed by two Venezuelan illegal aliens who had been released into the United States from the southern border, as evidence of the dangers posed by lax immigration policies.
Critics of the Biden administration have long argued that its immigration policies have led to an increase in crime, particularly violent crimes committed by illegal immigrants. They point to incidents like the murder of Jocelyn Nungaray as proof that more needs to be done to secure the border and prevent criminal elements from entering the country.
As the debate over immigration and public safety continues to rage, President Biden’s comments are likely to serve as fuel for his critics, who see them as a sign of his administration’s failure to address the real concerns of American citizens. Whether or not his remarks were taken out of context, one thing is clear: the issue of illegal immigrant crime remains a contentious and polarizing topic in American politics.
