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.
Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-Staten Island/Brooklyn) pointed blame for the stunning stats at soft-on-crime and lax border-control policies pushed by President Biden and other Democrats.
“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 Malliotakis, the lone Republican representing the left-leaning Big Apple.
“In many cases, they’ve provided them with housing, food and healthcare. They need to stop using New Yorkers’ hard-earned tax dollars to shield criminals wreaking havoc on our streets and instead cooperate with ICE to have them deported.”
Malliotakis also said she’s been trying to get the similar data from the NYPD since the beginning of the year through a Freedom of Information Law request, “but they keep stonewalling.”
Nationwide, the numbers are just as galling.

aka Crimigrants. Will NYC cooperate with ICE deportations of criminal immigrants? Meaning, will they help ICE?

Anyone who believes this is extremely gullible. It’s at least three times that much, maybe more than ten times. This is just Democrat propaganda.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams has repeatedly called for the sanctuary rules to be loosened, so migrants “suspected” of “serious” crimes could also be turned over to ICE. He’s also insisted he doesn’t have the political support needed on the City Council to change the laws.
Is that true?
