Democrats and liberals believe they have stumbled onto a smoking gun that will prove their contention that ICE is Nazis and that the United States should have open borders. According to a leaked internal DHS document allegedly obtained by CBS News and reported on February 9, 2026, less than 14 percent of the nearly 400,000 immigrants arrested by ICE during the first year of the Trump administration had charges or convictions for violent criminal offenses.

Neither DHS nor CBS has published the document.
