Paul John Bojerski (79) was born to Polish parents in a German refugee camp a year after World War II ended. His family legally emigrated to the US in 1952 when he was five.

"Since his eight-hour bus ride to Alligator Alcatraz, Paul Bojerski's health has gone downhill, his family said. Prior to his incarceration he was able to walk on his own without assistance, but he is now using a wheelchair. The grandfather has had three back surgeries for which he's under continued medical care and was scheduled for a spinal procedure on Thursday, which he missed because of the detention. Bojerski has also been unable to get his regular medications. Friday morning, he called to say he has bruises from the guards: "He fell out of his wheelchair and they left him on the cell floor for hours." Bojerski told his family the detainees rarely get hot meals, a complaint shared by others held at Alligator Alcatraz.
Paul Bojerski's parents escaped German Nazis only to have their son abused seven decades later by American Nazis.

Only the worst of the worst. So, why is it so hard to find the "millions of criminals Biden let in"?
