Video Newsmax exclusive: DHS deports more illegal alien gang members

More illegal alien gang members have been deported in the last week, the Department of Homeland Security told Newsmax on Tuesday.
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said that "every single deportation makes America safer. DHS is delivering on President [Donald] Trump's mandate from the American people to deport illegal aliens because that's how we save lives."

The most recent deportations by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement include "murderers, drug dealers, drunk drivers, and robbers," Mullin stressed.
Among the illegal alien gang members deported last week are:
– Marcos Ramirez-Garcia, an illegal alien from Mexico and Surenos gang member, was deported on Sept. 25. His criminal history includes convictions for second-degree murder and felony firearm offense in Michigan. He illegally entered the U.S. at an unknown date and location. DHS issued Ramirez-Garcia a final administrative removal order on July 21, 2011.
– Mario Aviles-Corral, an illegal alien from Mexico and Mexican Mafia gang member, was deported on Sept. 22. His criminal history includes convictions for second-degree murder and aggravated assault in Arizona. He claims to have illegally entered the U.S through California in 1985. DHS issued Aviles-Corral a final administrative removal order on Aug. 5, 2005.
