Two states propose bounty hunters to track down criminal illegal aliens

Missouri senator David Gregory and Mississippi attorney general Matthew Barton propose bounty hunters to track down criminal illegal aliens.

Conservatives must not only embrace this idea, but elevate it as a cornerstone of our renewed commitment to law, order, and the pioneering spirit that forged this nation.

Critics scoff, conjuring dystopian fantasies or historical ghosts like the Fugitive Slave Act .

Border crossings spiked to 2.5 million in 2023 , per CBP , with cartels emboldened by Biden ’s dithering.

Bounty hunters aren’t a panacea, but they are a scalpel, excising the malignant while ICE rebuilds.

This is conservatism at its core: pragmatic, unapologetic, rooted in first principles.
