It highlights issues related to former President Joe Biden&#8217;s immigration policies, especially the &#8220;let everyone in&#8221; approach, which critics argue has allowed dangerous individuals, including Iranian nationals with criminal backgrounds, to enter the country. <\/p>\n<p>The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reported the detention of 11 Iranian nationals within 48 hours, some of whom entered the U.S. under Biden&#8217;s management and had serious criminal records. Notably, one detainee, Ribvar Karimi, is described as a former Iranian Army sniper, while another, Mehran Makari Saheli, has connections to the islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and was previously convicted of gun possession.

Thanks to former President Joe Biden&rsquo;s &ldquo;Let everyone in!&rdquo; immigration policies, those worries are very much legitimate.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dhs.gov\/news\/2025\/06\/24\/ice-arrests-11-iranian-nationals-illegally-us-over-weekend\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">revealed<\/a> it detained 11 Iranian nationals over a 48-hour period.

Per DHS, &ldquo;Karimi reportedly served as an&nbsp;Iranian Army sniper&nbsp;from 2018 to 2021 and at the time of his arrest, in his possession, he had an Islamic Republic of Iran Army identification card.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>According to the agency, Karimi &ldquo;entered the U.S. on a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.uscis.gov\/family\/family-of-us-citizens\/visas-for-fiancees-of-us-citizens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">K-1 visa<\/a>, which is reserved for aliens engaged to be married to American citizens, in October 2024 under the Biden administration,&rdquo; but &ldquo;never adjusted his status &mdash; a legal requirement &mdash; and is removable from the United States.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Another Iranian national detained by ICE is Mehran Makari Saheli. The DHS press release noted that the 56-year-old is &ldquo;convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm&nbsp;in Minneapolis, where he was sentenced to 15 months in prison,&rdquo; and &ldquo;is a former member of&hellip; the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) with admitted connections to Hezbollah.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;An immigration judge ordered [Saheli] removed June 28, 2022, under the Biden administration, but he illegally remained in the U.S.,&rdquo; according to the agency. ICE detained five more Iranian nationals on Monday, adding to the initial batch of arrests announced earlier Tuesday morning, Fox News <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/more-iranians-criminal-histories-arrested-ice-trumps-security-sweep\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>While federal agents deserve credit for successfully apprehending these dangerous individuals, the news of their arrests underscores the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/state-dept-spox-largest-threat-to-u-s-national-security-are-u-s-cops\/\" title=\"State Dept Spox: \u2018Largest Threat to U.S. National Security are U.S. Cops\u2019\">national security threats<\/a> that Biden&rsquo;s destructive immigration policies created. For years, the Biden administration allowed millions of illegal aliens to pour across America&rsquo;s southern border with little to no oversight. This facilitated crisis was only compounded by the fact that the administration was simultaneously importing foreign nationals under various <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/05\/30\/scotus-agrees-trump-can-revoke-temporary-legal-status-of-500k-foreign-nationals-for-now\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&ldquo;parole&rdquo; programs<\/a>.  <\/p>\n<p>While it&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/06\/24\/biden-admin-let-729-iranian-border-crossers-loose-into-america-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">estimated<\/a> the Biden administration released at least 729 Iranian nationals into the country during its four years in power, those figures don&rsquo;t take into account the number of Iranians who may have crossed undetected into the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Were any of these prospective &ldquo;gotaways&rdquo; IRGC agents? Did they boast ties to Iranian-backed terrorist groups? Thanks to Biden and his administration, the nation has no idea. <\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s one thing for U.S. officials to pinpoint where potential Iranian missile attacks on American military forces in the Middle East may come from and shoot them down. It&rsquo;s a much more difficult task to identify individual Iranian agents operating in a country of more than 330 million people and stop them from launching terror attacks against the American public. <\/p>\n<p>Due to Team Biden&rsquo;s malicious immigration policies, the latter has become much more difficult.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<div class=\"article-author-description fst-italic\">      Shawn Fleetwood is a staff writer for The Federalist and a graduate of the University of Mary Washington.
