Texas DPS Officers Continue to Arrest Men From ‘Countries of Concern’ Including Iran
In the past week, Department of Public Safety troopers have arrested dozens of “special interest aliens” (SIAs) which is raising alarm. Primarily, they are men from “countries of foreign concern” including from Iran, a designated State Sponsor of Terrorism.
The continued arrests have been made possible under Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott’s border security mission, Operation Lone Star.
DPS Lt. Chris Olivarez said in a series of social media posts that “dozens” have been arrested in just the past week. The Center Square reports the U.S. Department of Homeland Security explains SIAs as noncitizens who, based “on an analysis of travel patterns,” are “known or evaluated to possibly have a nexus to terrorism” who “potentially poses a national security risk to the United States.”
Having an SIA designation does not necessarily mean the individual is a terrorist, but their travel pattern “indicates a possible nexus to nefarious activity (including terrorism) and, at a minimum, provides indicators that necessitate heightened screening and further investigation,” DHS says.
Out of 165 foreign nationals apprehended by DPS in just one day, October 11, 14 of them were identified as SIAs- citizens of Iran, Egypt, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The nationals illegally entered Texas from Mexico and were apprehended in Quernado, outside of Eagle Pass.
DPS troopers also arrested 57 illegal foreign nationals for criminal trespass – citizens of Peru, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, Honduras, Guatemala, and Ecuador, Olivarez said.
On Oct. 13, Texas DPS troopers recovered 29 “unaccompanied alien children” (UACs) between the ages of 10 and 17. They all claimed to already have sponsors in New York, California, Colorado, Florida, Maine, and other states, he said.
On Oct. 14, Texas DPS troopers also recovered 23 UACs including 16 boys and seven girls, he said. Olivarez published a video of the UACs who stated their ages in Spanish.
On Oct. 14, Texas DPS troopers also apprehended a large group of illegal border crossers on private property in Maverick County. They included family groups, the 23 UACs and 22 SIAs – citizens of Egypt and Turkey, Olivarez said.
Last month, troopers apprehended SIAs from Turkey, all single military age men, The Center Square reported.

Trump Border Czar Tom Homan Gets a Hero’s Welcome in Blue Chicago Talking About Deportations (VIDEO)
Trump border czar Tom Homan recently spoke to a crowd in blue Chicago and was met with cheers and applause as he described how deportations were going to start right there in the Windy City.
Homan was speaking at an event sponsored by a local law enforcement group and the audience may have leaned a bit to the right but you have to take the location into account. Chicago is not known for being a Republican stronghold.
Over the last year, there have been numerous videos showing inner city residents who are absolutely livid about illegal aliens being moved into their neighborhoods. There are plenty of people in the city who want what Homan is describing.
ABC News in Chicago reports:
Incoming border czar Tom Homan promises mass deportation: ‘Going to start right here in Chicago’
Incoming border czar Tom Homan showed up in Portage Park on Monday, swinging hard at both the city’s mayor and the Illinois governor, who have promised to fight his plans for mass deportation.
It was a raucous welcome from a loyal Republican crowd in one of Chicago’s most conservative wards.
The man charged with executing President-elect Donald Trump’s promise to crack down on illegal immigration repeated his plan for mass deportations in no uncertain terms.
“All that starts January 21, and we’re going to start right here in Chicago, Illinois,” Homan said.
“I love it. I love it. Bring it. People need to know that this is a country with laws, and we’re going to have order,” said Chicago GOP Chairman Chuck Hernandez.
Everyone in Chicago wants change, except for the status quo Democrats. Homan is going to bring it.
