BOSTON (TNND) — A Haitian man who was in the U.S. illegally yelled “Biden forever” as he was arrested by federal immigration agents this week, according to a Fox News report published Thursday.

The man, whom Fox News reports is a gang member with 17 recent criminal convictions, made the remarks while he was loaded into the back of a police vehicle in Boston.

“F**k Trump! You feel me? Yo, Biden forever, bro!” the man said. “Thank Obama for everything that he did for me, bro!”

Vice President JD Vance confirmed on social media that U.S. immigration officials are deporting the man.

“An illegal alien with 17 criminal convictions really hates President Trump for sending him back to Haiti. He’s grateful to Biden for letting him come here,” the post reads. “I’m glad we’re deporting him. Do you agree or would you like him as your neighbor?”

The arrest was one of eight that ICE’s Boston field office made that same day. Multiple members of MS-13, people suspected of murder and rape and people the International Criminal Police Organization, or INTERPOL, requested to be arrested were reportedly among those taken into custody.

Patricia Hyde, the acting field office director of ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations office in Boston, said the team took several significant public safety threats out of Massachusetts communities, according to Fox News.

“Unfortunately, a lot were released by sanctuary policies. But we’re here to tell the Commonwealth and the rest of the country that we’re going to find them, whether they’re released or not,” she said.

In the first days of President Donald Trump’s second term, ICE arrested more than 460 immigrants who were in the U.S. illegally, Fox News reported.
