In a recent New York Post op-ed, former New York Lt. Gov. Betsy McCaughey wrote that the Biden administration's failure to secure the southern border has led to a "femicide" plague across the United States.

"Women are being victimized by migrants, bringing ‘femicide’ to your neighborhood," she warned.

Attacks on women are already a known problem across Latin America, she wrote, with evidence lining migration routes from South America to the U.S. border with Mexico.
