Garland, 22 F.4th 478, 486 (5th Cir. 2022); Wang v. Holder, 569 F.3d 531, 537 (5th Cir. 2009). Additionally, there is no need to consider his remaining arguments concerning credibility and the admission of evidence. See INS v. Bagamasbad, 429 U.S. 24, 25 (1976). The petition for review is DENIED in part and DISMISSED in part. 2 22-60373 Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ca5 5th Cir. El Hennawi v.
