An illegal alien and member of vicious El Salvadoran gang MS-13 was arrested last week in Texas after committing multiple crimes in multiple counties.

“[Clay County] Sheriff Kenny Lemons said Douglas Guevera-Medrano, 20, is an illegal immigrant and a member of the notorious MS-13, an international crime gang,” according to KFDX.

The report said that Guevera-Medrano was charged with 11 crimes spanning across several counties, including Dallas and Clay counties. The charges range from criminal mischief, to theft and and failure to identify. He is currently being held in the Clay County Jail, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has placed a detainer on him.

Lemons was critical of the border security policies – or lack thereof – that he says are the root cause of the problems created by illegal aliens.

“Especially when you have these people captured, these dangerous gang members from El Salvador and you don’t have them deported,” he said.  “This man should not have been in Vashti, TX on Monday. We should not have been chasing him. We should not have anything to do with this. This man should have been deported and sent back to his home country.”

While illegal aliens continue to commit crimes, and law enforcement officers like Lemon demand answers, gridlock persists in Washington, D.C.

Big League Politics reported:

President Donald J. Trump has declared a national state of emergency, for which several heavily-blue states immediately sued his administration. Democrats refuse to budge on the issue, unwilling to secure America’s borders. As illegal border crossings surge, they blocked a meaningful amount of wall funding in the 2019 federal budget.

Even Republicans on Capitol Hill have faltered.

In what many conservatives see as a colossal failure, the Republican Congress, led by former Speaker Paul Ryan, current Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, failed to deliver wall funding to the president’s desk during all of 2017 and 2018, when Republicans held the House, the Senate, and the White House.
