From the New York Post: There are over 58,000 illegal migrants who are convicted felons or facing criminal charges roaming NYC — and close to 670,000 across the country, startling new data obtained by The Post shows.
Of the 759,218 illegal-border crossers living in the Big Apple the feds were aware of as of Nov. 17, a jaw-dropping 58,626 — 7.7% — were either previously convicted of crimes or had criminal charges pending, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency data.
And of the 58,626 migrants with rap sheets, 1,053, nearly 2%, are “suspected or known gang members,” according to the agency.
“It’s shocking that Democrats have gone so far out of their way to harbor gang members, drug traffickers and other criminals who are in our country illegally,” said Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, who is the only Republican representing a section of the massive sanctuary city.
Malliotakis told the Post that she’s also requested similar data from the NYPD since the beginning of the year through a Freedom of Information Law request, “but they keep stonewalling.”
“New Yorkers deserve to know how many crimes are being committed by the illegal immigrants @NYCMayor Adams & @GovKathyHochul are forcing them to house. Release the data! Stop stonewalling!” Malliotakis demanded.

Nationwide, the data is alarming as well. The NY Post wrote:
Of the nearly 7.8 million illegal immigrants in the United States, 662,586 – or 8.6% — are convicted criminals or have charges pending, according to ICE data through July 21. It’s unclear how many are suspected gang members.
