Four more innocent Americans, reportedly all Amish, are now dead at the hands of an illegal alien truck driver following a horrific crash in Indiana earlier this month. The news is just the latest tragedy stemming from Democrat open borders and sanctuary city policies.
On February 3, law enforcement apprehended a 30-year-old Kyrgyzstani national named Bekzhan Beishekeev after he caused “a head-on crash in Indiana that killed four people” in a van in Bryant, Indiana. While most Amish themselves do not drive cars, five Amish construction workers appear to have hired a driver to bring them home from a work site. All four who died are reportedly Amish, according to WISH-TV reporting, while the non-Amish driver needed emergency surgery for his injuries.
A horrifying image shared by Fox News reporter Bill Melugin shows a mangled mess of metal following the accident. Another tear-jerking photo shows around 60 Amish in traditional clothing gathering around the site of the deadly incident. “I have been on the job almost 30 years and this would definitely rank among one of the most horrific crashes I’ve seen,” a county sheriff captain said. “Just going to the scene was chaos.”
In disturbing contrast, a mugshot shows an unfazed Beishekeev, without any apparent remorse for the damage he caused.
Melugin reported, based on police statements, that the illegal alien “didn’t stop for another slowed semi-truck, swerving instead into oncoming traffic and crashing head-on into a van.”
Beishekeev was waved into the country by Joe Biden using the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol One (CBP One) app. That program, which President Donald Trump has repurposed as a self-deportation app, allowed migrants to click one button and be allowed to roam the country without any restraints.
The deadly crash in Indiana follows similar vehicular mayhem caused by illegal aliens in Florida and California, all of whom were granted truck licenses by 2028 Democrat presidential hopeful Governor Gavin Newsom.
Soon after the Indiana crash, Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy laid out clear and devastating evidence showing that Democrat leaders were responsible for the wreckage. “The Biden admin INVITED illegals like Bekzhan Beishekeev to flood our borders,” Duffy wrote on X. “Biden’s ‘catch and release’ policy ALLOWED him into our country.”
“Pennsylvania issued him a NON-DOMICILED license,” Duffy said.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) followed up with its own indictment of reckless Democrat policies. “Not only was Bekzhan Beishekeev released into our country by the Biden administration using the CBP One app, but he was also given a commercial driver’s license by Governor Shapiro’s Pennsylvania,” Assistant DHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said.
“These sanctuary governor[s] must stop giving illegal aliens commercial driver’s licenses before another American gets killed,” she warned.
Pennsylvania Democrat Governor Josh Shapiro has denied any responsibility for his state granting CDLs to illegal aliens. “This person had legal status in [DHS Secretary Kristi] Noem’s database when the license was issued, and actually still shows as eligible to receive a license *as of today*,” Shapiro’s office stated on X.
However, that argument does not appear to hold up. The “Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements” (SAVE) database, which Shapiro’s office was referring to, clearly states that it does not “determine applicant eligibility for a specific benefit or license. That determination is made by the benefit issuing or licensing agency.”
In other words, SAVE does not determine if someone is qualified to hold an occupational license – that responsibility falls to individual states, who must ensure that an applicant is of legal status and compliant with all federal laws and regulations.
While Pennsylvania issued Beishekeev a license in July 2025, the Department of Transportation (DOT) subsequently ordered the Keystone State to review its use of “non-domiciled” commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs) to ensure safety compliance.
In November of last year, Transportation Secretary Duffy “announced that the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) found Pennsylvania violated existing federal safety regulations by issuing non-domiciled CDLs illegally – including to ineligible foreigners without verifying their legal status.” DOT announced it would “withhold nearly $75 million in federal funding” unless the state revoked the licenses and corrected its “dangerous failures.”
Shapiro’s administration failed to do so, and as a result four Americans are now dead.
The tragedy only further underscores the need for the Trump administration’s mass deportation operations, even for those who have not committed violent crimes. Untold tens of thousands of illegal aliens let into the country under the Biden administration have now secured CDLs from blue states in direct violation of federal law and often without even being able to read English and understand the basic laws of the road.
The Trump administration has taken swift action to attempt to mitigate this threat, with Noem launching an operation last October that took 145 illegal truck drivers off the highways in Indiana. But more remain.
Americans deserve to feel safe on their roads, driving to and from work or to visit friends and family. They should not be forced to live in constant fear and anxiety every time they are on the highway, worrying if the truck behind them is driven by a qualified English-speaking American or a foreigner who hopped the border under Biden.
The Trump administration is making great strides on that front. But as long as Democrat governors continue to ignore basic safety regulations and hand out CDLs to illegal aliens, American lives will continue to be at risk.

First, we have governors who allow [or even encourage] illegal aliens to enter our country. The, we have trucking companies who, to pay lower wages, employs the illegal aliens to drive for them! Not only does this kill innocent citizens, it puts honest US citizens out of work! If states will not enforce US laws, their federal money should be cut off!
Governors/ Local “leaders” continue to violate the law… Why would the stop?? Because their are no consequences.
Another errant Democrat governor now joins Newsom with reckless issuing of CDLs to non-qualified foreign drivers that has ended up with more deaths on the road because of their negligence for public safety.
How much more PROOF is it going to take to AWAKEN the AMERICAN people to the TOTAL SELLOUT of this country by the DEMO-RAT PARTY and the TOTALLY INEBPT, figurehead, who had all his decisions made by other people and his signature forged through the use of a mechanical signatuer device. Allowing ILLEGAL methods and using backdoor ways to allow ILLEGALS in to this country is not only costing the CITIZENS their income and rasing their medical costs because these ILLEGALS get preferred treatment and free health care. WAKE UP AMERICA AND STOP THESE TRAITORS BEFORE IT IS TO LATE.How many more deaths from ILLEGAL drivers and of course the losses caused by all the UNINSURED ILLEGAL drivers must we CITIZENS ALLOW!
WHY ARE THE DEMS DOING THIS? THE ANSWERS ARE SIMPLE BUT TRAGIC. HERE ARE JUST A FEW OF MANY:
1. ILLEGALS-FIRST, AMERICANS-LAST
2. THEY TRULY DON’T GIVE DAMN ABOUT HOW MANY AMERICANS ARE KILLED, MURDERED, RAPED, POISONED WITH DRUGS, TORTURED, MUGGED AND BEATEN, SET ON FIRE, ETC.
3. THEY DON’T GIVE FLYING F##K ABOUT THE 323,000 MISSING CHILDREN THAT BIDEN AND HIS ILLEGALS ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR.
4. IT’S ALL ABOUT THE CORRUPT , MORAL-LESS, EVIL DEMORATS PROTECTING THEIR NEW VOTING BASE.
THE DEMORATS ARE PURE EVIL AND AMERICA’S TRUE ENEMIES WITHIN (AS ARE ALL WHO VOTE FOR AND SUPPORT THEM).
AND THE LEADERS OF THESE SANCTUARY BLUE STATES AND CITIES SHOULD BE IMPEACHED, RECALLED, DEPORTED OR BE SERVING LONG PRISON SENTENCES FOR ALL OF THE NEAR ENDLESS CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY THEY HAVE COMMITTED AND CONTINUE TO COMMIT.
Those who knowingly hire these illegal alien drivers should also be held responsible.
If I see a truck ahead or behind me I will exit that road or street at the nearest intersection. I take that every semi has an illegal driver. They have been put on the road by Biden and the governors and mayors of sanctuary states and cities are going along with that principal, and then Shapiro tried to blame Christy Noem. Learn the rules Shapiro and all you other communist democrats. Many many things are the dems fault, especially for allowing people driving a 16 wheeler down the road weighing as much as 100,000 pounds. Driven by a person who has no respect for America or Americans. The way this driver acted after this accident shows they have no empathy for Americans. They are the soldiers for the democrats to eliminate as many white people as possible. Legacy news won’t report on this. That goes against their lies. The democrats truth is no truth. Like the House passed the voter ID law and Obama says it will enfranchise millions. Really Hussein? You mean millions are being enfranchised from getting a bank account or a drivers license? You never campaigned on that? This is not the 1960’s. Although you would like to go back to that time. Only the black Americans are on to you. You are using them as pawns to get elected and then you drop them like so much garbage. The republicans want honest elections. Too bad fraud is taken out of the election by this vote. Let us hope the Rep and Dem Senators are smart and vote what the people want. 84% of all Americans say voter ID is the way to go. Among republicans and independents as well. Only 70% of the democrats say so. Democrats don’t want fair elections. They protect the criminal element in this country. And this voter ID law shows how far they are willing to go to keep fraudulent elections. And these semis driven by the illegals is proof they don’t care who is driving or who is voting. As long as they vote for them.
The governor of PA that allowed him to be able to get the license and the person who issued the license in violation of the law need to charged as accessories to the murder of the 4 people. If those that make it possible for illegal invaders to drive are finally held accountable maybe just maybe a few others will tell them no.
What is the point to write about the crime committed by illegal immigrant when the crime is supported by lawmakers and those supposed to ensure the safety of the citizen and the community. Can a class action suit be brought against all those supporting the crime ,unless they are held responsible for the crime they will continue the lawlessness. They are getting away with the murder for which we pay them. Where are the rights of the citizen?
Way past time to tighten up on enforcing the laws!!!!!!
In none of these articles on deaths caused by illegals obtaining licenses, is there any mention of who the trucks belonged to or who hired the illegals.
Having been on the roads in India and Brazil this statement sounds reasonable for the driving habits I saw.
Melugin reported, based on police statements, that the illegal alien “didn’t stop for another slowed semi-truck, swerving instead into oncoming traffic and crashing head-on into a van.”
Any type of operator license without actual training is insane
More Americans killed by ILLEGAL ALIENS. THIS WAS PREVENTABLE!!!! I admit that I fall far short of The Lord’s command to pray for and forgive our enemies, because I want nothing but the worst for these ILLEGAL ALIENS and the Biden administration.
Thanks to fraudulently elected governor Shorty Shapiro who can’t handle Real ID CDLs but is petty enough to have PA state police harass his neighbors and using drones to spy on neighbors over a security fence dispute. You can’t make this stuff up, truth is stranger than fiction
Very sad to say; however, most of the Democrat leaders are actually domestic terrorists. They are speeding up the demise of our country through anti-American policies. The founders of our country would have locked up or executed the likes of the Democrat Party leadership if they were alive 250 years ago.
How’d America ever get 2 this point of Elected Officials aiding w Taxpayer Monie$ n ABETTING ILLEGAL INVADER$, CRIMINALITY, n FORIGN Enemies into certain States, protecting them, and TOTALLY DISCARDING the very citizens that voted em in office? Disgusting. Disrespectful. Disengenuous n should be a Treasonous Seditious act n Death Penalty for it. THAT WOULD STOP THESE COWARDS who only want votes at any cost n power. Unfortunately, doesn’t seem Republicans CAN or will do that or anything 2stop this cancer!
I guess as more Americans are killed maybe people will start rethinking how they vote and holding their elected officials accountable. If not, nothing will change. JMO
When is our government going to start prosecuting politicians who clearly reject the laws of our country?? This after I just read the article about Homan announcing the firm crackdown in MN was ending. As long as our law enforcement at every level look the other way when CRIMINAL illegal aliens kill, rape, assault our citizens, nothing will change. The idiot politicians are the ones causing this harm by allowing these heinous criminals to stay out there on our streets. I suppose since it is an election year that all the politicians are going to back down and do nothing. This is NOT why we voted for GOP members to run our country!!
I will say again according to the declaration of independence the purpose of our government is to protect our liberties because ALL politicians and gov employees don’t do that they should be arrested and treated like the J6ers years without trial solitary confinement and don’t forget judges they suck too!!!! its a shame we will never get our country back too many TRAITORS in high places
Im in process to renew my drivers lisc CA DMV
Have to take Vision & Drive Test , why not same for CDL drivers
Im not Juan
If named Juan I may get faster DMV service
Im age 71
Finger-pointing, name-calling, invective-hurling are useless exercises which ensure no consequences against anyone. Appropriate federal law-enforcement agencies must get with the program, investigate intentional breaking of lawful national laws and bring to prosecution those people who insist on circumventing regulations for their political purposes..
Those who knowingly hire these illegal , alien drivers should also be held responsible.
Should not be a surprise to any sane civilized person, with one eye and half an once of brains. Democratic Socialists have planned this international state of chaos, lawlessness, any and all means of removing commonsense laws, restrictions, civil order and justice. Scrap it all to achieve the violence, confusion, and civil sanity that is the marrow of our Republic. A murder cusses out a federal judge for the pos reducing his sentence for killing 3 whites, Judge still sights pity for the animal cause he is black. Therefore, stoking the racial fire of hate, division and violence. Governors supporting illegals that steal, murder, riot, rage, and kill. All to accomplish their goal, a nation in a state of chaos, vigilante justice, no laws of personal order to serve and protect, just insanity that divides and destroys, to reshape, restructure, and conform to total STATE Control, ignore or dismantle the constitution, or yield to the Socialist interpretation of what is “their laws and order”. While the sheep graze, roll over bleep and wonder “whats happening”
Very sad to say — most Democrat leaders are actively working to destroy our young country. They are addicted to championing policies which are anti-American and anti-tradition.
All my grandchildren grew up talking against firearms even though DaddyPa had two long guns. Now in their mid 30’s they all have multiple long guns, hand guns, and hidies. Their opinion now is to defend all of us disabled veterans that gave them their right to arm and carry. The communist democrat party has done a grand job of opening the eyes of true patriots. They have become very profecient in the use of the guns.

Can a class action suit be brought against all those supporting the crime ,unless they are held responsible for the crime they will continue the lawlessness.

What about the companies that hire these drivers? Is there no background check for drivers.maybe speaking English for starters
Getting a CDL in Pa. for the citizens of Pa., is not easy. Guess supporting illegals is the democrat governor’s way of not supporting the safety of not only Pa. citizens but nation wide citizens. Denial is a talent among democrats. We need more of this honest journalism. The public will not hear this on the six o’clock news.
Oh, I hope Joe Biden and Alejandro Mayorkas rot in hell. Harsh? You bet!
And to think that I had to take a course in high school (Driver’s Ed), practice parallel parking, study the book,
Every single one of those IDIOT protestors in Minnesota should have to go in front of their families and apologize for complaining about an agency following the law trying to make this country safer! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK ICE AND BPS!
We can thank Biden’s administration for this tragedy. I know every one of these truck and car drivers should NEVER HAVE BEEN GIVEN A DRIVERS’ LICENSE. It is horrible that Americans are being killed on our streets and highways because of Illegal immigrants.
Only by holding responsible those ,who pass, but disregard the laws and encourage criminality committed with their approval will change this lawless chaos.
This kind of thing reminds me of the movie DUEL that starred Dennis Weaver as a driver who was being chased and terrorized by the unknown driver of a semi truck.
Can we deport liberals for being incompetent and lacking basic logic?
Democrat politicians have created a culture of division, violence, and disregard for safety of American citizens. Their entire “Get Trump” platform has bled over into everyday lives of Americans and this spite and hatred needs to be laid to rest. Full and swift investigations and swift arrests with real consequences are needed. Politicians who willfully, brazenly, and publicly refuse to uphold federal laws need to be arrested immediately and made an example of.
This incident is very much like one I experienced in southern Oregon where one big rig tried to pass another while driving southbound and climbing a hill on a two-lane road. As I approached the hilltop going northbound and saw two big rigs coming at me, one in my northbound lane. Our combined speeds had us closing at 140 miles per hour. I was very fortunate to find a gravel chain-up turn out lot at the top of the hill on the right which I used to dodge the trucks. I have no way of knowing if the big rig driver in my lane was legal or not but it sure was a reckless and illegal thing to do attempting to pass in a no passing zone. If I had a dash camera I could have turned the driver into the Oregon police. Perhaps I’ll buy one.

As the deaths of incent American citizens and the hands of Illegal Aliens 80,000 lbs. big rigs all over the country the Evi rulers of blue states like Mr Hair Gel Newsom , Shapiro, and others continue to flaunt the laws and issue CDLs to Illegal Aliens the death toll rises. Withholding Federal Dollars is a good way to punish the likes of Presidential hopeful Sparkle Beach Ken aka Mr Hair Gel Newsom. Staging large scale inspections of big rigs on the nations highways has also worked to rid the highways of Illegal Alien Drivers. I have yet to have heard the Administration say anything about going after the companies the hire these Illegal Alien Truckers. It would seem to be a sure fire way to stop the stivers faster than a blown engine would be to levy HUGE FINES one any individual or corporation LLC etc. that hires or engages Illegal Alien CDL Lic. drivers
Simle process to stop the mayhem:
A. Withhold Federal Dollars from non compliant States
B. Highway ‘Safety Check Points’
C. Levey Fines on Individuals/Corporations /LLCs that hire or engage Illegal Alien Drivers
D. Federally Procescute the Governors and State Agencies that Issue drivers licenses to Illegal Aliens using Commerce Clause of the constitution as supporting legal standing.
This hurts my heart. A Ukrainian illegal truck driver killed 3 in Alabama last year. Just plowed through cars stopped at a red light. He didnt even slow down.
Hopefully ALL American Taxpaying Citizens of this Country will remember these horrible results of the love that Elected Democrats have for Illegals Immigrants to secure their next election cycle. Just how many Americans have to die to make these Democrat Politicians happy?
I wonder what the death toll is for the number of people that Democrats have killed with their policies? Americans have a right to know. Elections have consequences
I thought … the Democrat rhetoric on why we need more immigrants, was not to take jobs from Americans, but to do the menial jobs Americans refuse to do? I know more than a couple truckers, who say that they are not working enough … with too many new drivers, taking miles / hours from their jobs. Democrats? What gives? Driving trucks not similar to picking tomatoes.
Joe blow american cant get a CDL that easy. God bless the Amish families.
Illegal should be charged with 4 counts of murder and spen life in federal prison with no parole
Biden caused so much destruction, heartache & vile behavior during his 4 year reign of terror. Unfortunately we will hear about it for years. Thank the good Lord we now have Trump!!
So where is this photo of the “unfazed Beishekeev, without any apparent remorse”? Let us be the judge please.
Perhaps what needs to happen is that Biden, Newsome, Shapiro, and others like them should stand trial for accessory to murder charges. Their unwillingness to abide by the law makes it premeditated. Just saying……
The Democratic Party are the murders behind this along with unions, lawyers and judges who argue for the rights of illegal immigrants or invaders to our country! All of those individuals should all pay the price for their crimes against the true American people! They should pay the same price as the innocent American citizens have!
