About this episode
In this episode, we dive into the complexities of immigration crime statistics. Michael discusses the often-misleading claims that illegal aliens commit fewer crimes than US citizens. He explores the flaws in the data, including selective counting, manipulation of statistics, and underreporting. We examine the consequences of these distortions, such as the exclusion of immigration offenses and the acceleration of removals through plea agreements. The conversation highlights the importance of considering the full trajectory of crimes committed by non-citizens and the need for a more comprehensive approach to understanding the relationship between immigration and crime.
