00:00Yes.
00:01Okay.
00:02I wanted to ask you if you would be releasing more granular data about the people who were
00:06sent to El Salvador this week, particularly will you be releasing their names?
00:12I don't believe so because of the privacy concerns at this point in time.
00:16That doesn't mean we won't eventually.
00:18I would defer you to the Department of Homeland Security for more details on the individuals
00:22on the flights.
00:23But we have been incredibly transparent in giving you the breakdown of the numbers and
00:26also some of the crimes committed by these heinous criminals and individuals, kidnapping,
00:31sexual abuse of a child, robbery, aggravated assault on a police officer.
00:36I would remind everybody in this room that Trende Aragua is a foreign terrorist organization
00:41operating within the United States of America because the previous administration allowed
00:45them to invade our country.
00:47These are monsters who tortured, raped, and murdered a 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungre.
00:51They murdered 22-year-old nursing student Lakin Riley.
00:55They led a multi-state sex trafficking operation involving smuggling women into the United
01:00States, holding them in stash houses in Louisiana, Florida, New Jersey, Texas, and Virginia,
01:06and forcing them into prostitution.
01:08They kidnapped and murdered a 33-year-old woman in Texas.
01:11They sexually and physically assaulted a woman and her daughter in Wisconsin.
01:15They conducted a mass shooting in Illinois.
01:17They peddled untraceable ghost guns across New York City, took over an Aurora, Colorado
01:22apartment complex where they kidnapped and tortured victims.
01:25And by the way, many of you in the mainstream media said that didn't happen.
01:29It turned out that it did.
01:30And because of the effective immigration policies of this administration, those foreign terrorists
01:35were detained, and they are no longer operating on American soil, and we have President Trump
01:39to thank for that.
01:40We'll see you guys later at the Kennedy Center.
01:42Thanks so much.
