(The Center Square) – The Trump administration posted mugshots along the White House lawn of convicted criminal foreign nationals who were deported from the U.S. as President Donald Trump approaches his 100th day of office Tuesday.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt posted a video of 100 posters erected on the White House lawn of 100 convicted criminal illegal foreign nationals as a symbol of those arrested during the first 100 days of the Trump administration.

The 100 posters were positioned across from Pebble Beach — the nickname for the TV standup area near the White House. Since the mug shots were visible behind reporters during TV standups, MSNBC encouraged TV stations to blur the faces of the immigrants.

Since Jan. 20, Trump “has overwhelmingly delivered” on his promise to secure the border, she said at a press briefing Monday, The Center Square reported. “America’s borders are now secure because of President Trump. He has restored the rule of law and enforced our immigration laws and defended America’s sovereignty.”

The White House lawn has been lined with dozens of mug shot-style posters brandishing the faces of arrested illegal migrants — and lists of the despicable crimes some have committed.

The posters include photos and names of those convicted of violent crimes. They were posted “for the world to see – highlighting the Trump Administration’s unprecedented effort to secure our homeland and send these vicious criminals back where they belong,” the White House said in a separate announcement that included more details about each convicted criminal deported.

All convicted criminals were men except for one woman. All were in the U.S. illegally, the administration says, citizens of Bhutan, Burkina Faso, Burma, Cambodia, China, Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Jamaica, India, Laos, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru, Philippines, Portugal, South Sudan and Venezuela.

Under the Biden administration, foreign nationals illegally entered the U.S. from more than 150 countries, The Center Square reported.

Their convictions are for violent crimes including first-degree murder, rape, aggravated battery, multiple types of sexual assault and abuse of a child or minor, lewd and lascivious acts against a child, sexual battery, sodomy of a child by force, kidnapping, multiple sex offenses, homicide, assault with a firearm, rape with a foreign object, fentanyl distribution, burglary, child pornography, drug possession, among others.

The only woman listed is 36-year-old Dominican Virginia Basora Gonzalez, arrested by ICE agents in Philadelphia. She had a removal order from an immigration judge in 2020 and was convicted for attempted possession with intent to distribute fentanyl.

Some of the most egregious convictions listed include crimes committed against children.

Those deported include an Indian national convicted of aggravated assault of a child in Harris County, Texas; a Mexican national convicted of predatory criminal sexual assault of a child in Cook County, Illinois; a Mexican national convicted of continuous sexual abuse of a child in San Bernardino County, Calif.; a Salvadoran national convicted of a sexual offense with a child in Wake, North Carolina; a Colombian national convicted of indecent assault of a person less than 13 years old in Lancaster, Penn.; a Mexican national convicted of sodomy with a person under age 14 in San Jose, Calif.; a citizen of Laos convicted of rape of a child in Evertt, Washington; a Mexican national convicted of sexual battery on a child under age 16 in Gainesville, Georgia; a Salvadoran national convicted of sexual abuse of a minor in Maryland; a Salvadoran national convicted of aggravated sexual battery of a victim under age 13 in Martinsville, Virginia; a Guatemalan national convicted of sexual assault of a victim under age 16 in Stamford, Conn.; among others.

U.S. House Democrats voted against deporting such offenders last fall.

They are described as among “the worst of the worst criminal illegal immigrants arrested” since Trump took office, the White House said, and were all deported.
