STORY (final version)

DHS official says Texas "lone Star" operation removed 4,107 illegal aliens in 10 days, over 60% with criminal backgrounds
A second official said the five-office operation produced 879 criminal arrests, crediting state, county and local partners, as the event's speakers press the case for cooperation over sanctuary policies.

A speaker who referred to the Department of Homeland Security as "we" said a 10-day, statewide operation called "Lone Star" resulted in the removal of 4,107 illegal aliens in Texas, more than 60% of whom had criminal backgrounds. The transcript tags the speakers as OTHER SPEAKER? and does not name the first one; the figures are the officials' own claims and could not be verified from the transcript.

OPERATION DETAILS
Miguel Vergara, who identified himself as field office director for ERO Dallas, said Mission Lone Star involved all five ERO field offices in Texas: Dallas, El Paso, Harlingen, Houston and San Antonio. He said the operation produced 879 criminal arrests of individuals "with final orders posting danger to the community and national security in just a few days." The transcript does not explain how the 879 arrests relate to the 4,107 removals.
Vergara cited one case, Orlando Aguilar, whom he described as previously removed with a removal order and with a criminal history including felony intoxication assault with a vehicle causing serious bodily injury and a second-offense DWI. The name was captured by automatic transcription and may be misspelled.

COOPERATION WITH LOCAL AGENCIES
Both officials credited state, county and local law enforcement. Vergara thanked agencies including the Wise County sheriff's office, the Wichita Falls sheriff's office, the Cisco Police Department and the Young County sheriff's office, and pointed to coordination under what the transcript renders as "89 g," likely a reference to Section 287(g) agreements. Some of the agency names appear garbled in the transcript.

SANCTUARY POLICY CRITICISM
The first speaker directed pointed criticism at "sanctuary politicians," saying their policies support "gangbangers," "child pedophiles," "rapists" and "cartels." He also said that since President Trump took office, authorities had arrested 2,168 "terrorists," distinguishing them from people on a terrorist watch list, and said murder rates had dropped to a "126 year low" and violent crime to 30- and 40-year lows. None of those figures could be verified from the transcript.

[4:22:11 PM ET] that
[4:22:11 PM ET] took

[4:22:23 PM ET] And
[4:22:23 PM ET] one
[4:22:24 PM ET] year.
[4:22:24 PM ET] Than
[4:22:24 PM ET] we
[4:22:24 PM ET] would
[4:22:25 PM ET] Lose
[4:22:25 PM ET] in
[4:22:26 PM ET] entire

[4:22:26 PM ET] or

[4:22:35 PM ET] Fentanyl
[4:22:36 PM ET] crisis.
[4:22:36 PM ET] And
[4:22:36 PM ET] that
[4:22:36 PM ET] was
[4:22:37 PM ET] because
[4:22:37 PM ET] of
[4:22:37 PM ET] Our
[4:22:37 PM ET] open
[4:22:38 PM ET] border
[4:22:38 PM ET] and
[4:22:39 PM ET] our
[4:22:39 PM ET] policies
[4:22:40 PM ET] from
[4:22:40 PM ET] the
[4:22:40 PM ET] Biden

[4:22:43 PM ET] But
[4:22:43 PM ET] God, the
[4:22:44 PM ET] Trump
[4:22:44 PM ET] for
[4:22:44 PM ET] coming

[4:22:47 PM ET] enforce
[4:22:47 PM ET] our
[4:22:47 PM ET] nation's
[4:22:48 PM ET] laws.
[4:22:48 PM ET] We're
[4:22:48 PM ET] able
[4:22:49 PM ET] to
[4:22:50 PM ET] See
[4:22:50 PM ET] the

[4:22:50 PM ET] rate
[4:22:51 PM ET] drop.
[4:22:52 PM ET] We're

[4:22:56 PM ET] 126
[4:22:56 PM ET] -year
[4:22:57 PM ET] low.
[4:22:57 PM ET] We're
[4:22:58 PM ET] Seeing
[4:22:58 PM ET] violent
[4:22:59 PM ET] crimes
[4:22:59 PM ET] drop
[4:22:59 PM ET] to

[4:23:00 PM ET] and
[4:23:00 PM ET] 40
[4:23:01 PM ET] -year
[4:23:01 PM ET] lows.
[4:23:01 PM ET] We're
[4:23:02 PM ET] seeing
[4:23:02 PM ET] fentanyl
[4:23:03 PM ET] Overdoses
[4:23:03 PM ET] go
[4:23:04 PM ET] backwards
[4:23:04 PM ET] for
[4:23:04 PM ET] the first
[4:23:05 PM ET] first
[4:23:05 PM ET] time.
[4:23:06 PM ET] Because
[4:23:06 PM ET] we're
[4:23:06 PM ET] In
[4:23:06 PM ET] enforcing
[4:23:07 PM ET] our
[4:23:07 PM ET] nation's
[4:23:07 PM ET] laws.
[4:23:07 PM ET] And
[4:23:07 PM ET] I
[4:23:08 PM ET] say
[4:23:08 PM ET] this
[4:23:08 PM ET] all
[4:23:08 PM ET] the
[4:23:09 PM ET] time.
[4:23:11 PM ET] The
[4:23:11 PM ET] Barbara
[4:23:11 PM ET] a
[4:23:11 PM ET] Hole
[4:23:11 PM ET] and Security
[4:23:14 PM ET] didn't.
[4:23:14 PM ET] make
[4:23:14 PM ET] these
[4:23:15 PM ET] laws.
[4:23:16 PM ET] Congress made
[4:23:16 PM ET] these
[4:23:17 PM ET] laws.
[4:23:17 PM ET] And
[4:23:17 PM ET] we
[4:23:19 PM ET] enforce
[4:23:19 PM ET] The
[4:23:20 PM ET] laws.
[4:23:20 PM ET] That
[4:23:20 PM ET] Congress
[4:23:21 PM ET] passed.
[4:23:23 PM ET] Why
[4:23:23 PM ET] is
[4:23:24 PM ET] it's
[4:23:24 PM ET] controversial
[4:23:24 PM ET] for
[4:23:25 PM ET] us
[4:23:25 PM ET] to
[4:23:25 PM ET] enforce
[4:23:25 PM ET] those
[4:23:25 PM ET] laws?
[4:23:26 PM ET] I
[4:23:26 PM ET] have
[4:23:26 PM ET] no
[4:23:27 PM ET] idea.
[4:23:27 PM ET] Protecting
[4:23:27 PM ET] our
[4:23:27 PM ET] homeland
[4:23:28 PM ET] should
[4:23:28 PM ET] never
[4:23:28 PM ET] be
[4:23:29 PM ET] controversial.
[4:23:29 PM ET] Doing
[4:23:29 PM ET] our
[4:23:30 PM ET] job
[4:23:30 PM ET] and
[4:23:31 PM ET] having
[4:23:31 PM ET] having
[4:23:31 PM ET] Like
[4:23:31 PM ET] a
[4:23:32 PM ET] lone
[4:23:32 PM ET] star
[4:23:32 PM ET] mission
[4:23:32 PM ET] where
[4:23:32 PM ET] we
[4:23:33 PM ET] take
[4:23:33 PM ET] over
[4:23:34 PM ET] 4
[4:23:35 PM ET] ,100
[4:23:35 PM ET] Criminals
[4:23:35 PM ET] off
[4:23:36 PM ET] our
[4:23:36 PM ET] streets
[4:23:37 PM ET] and
[4:23:37 PM ET] 10
[4:23:38 PM ET] days.
[4:23:38 PM ET] Why
[4:23:39 PM ET] is
[4:23:39 PM ET] that?
[4:23:40 PM ET] Controversial?
[4:23:41 PM ET] You
[4:23:41 PM ET] We
[4:23:41 PM ET] should
[4:23:41 PM ET] all
[4:23:42 PM ET] want
[4:23:42 PM ET] to
[4:23:42 PM ET] be
[4:23:42 PM ET] safe in
[4:23:42 PM ET] our
[4:23:43 PM ET] communities.
[4:23:44 PM ET] And
[4:23:45 PM ET] if
[4:23:45 PM ET] Congress
[4:23:45 PM ET] doesn't
[4:23:45 PM ET] like
[4:23:46 PM ET] the
[4:23:46 PM ET] laws,
[4:23:46 PM ET] we're
[4:23:46 PM ET] enforcing,
[4:23:47 PM ET] they
[4:23:47 PM ET] have
[4:23:47 PM ET] the
[4:23:48 PM ET] ability
[4:23:48 PM ET] to
[4:23:48 PM ET] change
[4:23:49 PM ET] those.
[4:23:49 PM ET] and
[4:23:49 PM ET] guess
[4:23:49 PM ET] what? If
[4:23:49 PM ET] they
[4:23:50 PM ET] changed
[4:23:50 PM ET] them.
[4:23:51 PM ET] all
[4:23:51 PM ET] these

[4:23:57 PM ET] those
[4:23:58 PM ET] laws.
[4:23:58 PM ET] We
[4:23:59 PM ET] don't
[4:23:59 PM ET] pick
[4:23:59 PM ET] and
[4:23:59 PM ET] choose
[4:24:00 PM ET] which
[4:24:00 PM ET] laws
[4:24:00 PM ET] We
[4:24:00 PM ET] enforce.
[4:24:01 PM ET] We
[4:24:01 PM ET] simply
[4:24:01 PM ET] enforce
[4:24:01 PM ET] our
