A recent Daily Mail/TIPP poll revealed that seventy-six percent of U.S. voters harbor concerns about the potential infiltration of killers, thieves, and rapists through the southern border.
The survey, conducted among 1,432 voters, indicated an outstanding partisan divide, with 90% of Republicans expressing apprehension compared to 69% of Democrats.
Immigration emerges as a highly contentious issue as the 2024 presidential election approaches, with former President Donald Trump, leading the GOP charge, sharply criticizing President Joe Biden’s approach to border security.

A recent advertisement by a pro-Trump super PAC further fueled the debate by spotlighting a tragic 2022 incident involving an undocumented immigrant who assaulted and murdered a 20-year-old autistic woman in Maryland. The ad underscores the vulnerability of victims and criticizes Biden’s perceived leniency towards border enforcement.
The ad emphasizes the assailant’s status as a member of the violent MS-13 gang and highlights the assertion that Biden’s policies facilitated the perpetrator’s release into American communities. It echoes sentiments calling for stricter border controls to prevent similar tragedies in the future.

Biden’s Homeland Security Secretary, Alejandro Mayorkas, tasked with upholding immigration system integrity, faced impeachment by the U.S. House in February over his handling of southern border affairs. However, the Senate dismissed these charges on Thursday, reflecting the ongoing political friction surrounding immigration policy enforcement.
