them to have waived any challenge to certain findings by the Immigration Judge which were dispositive of their application for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture. While they now challenge some of these findings in their briefing to this court, they did not do so before the BIA. We therefore agree with the Government that they have not exhausted these arguments, and we decline to address them. See Alejos-Perez v. Garland, 93 F.4th 800, 806-07 (5th Cir. 2024). Further, the BIA did not err in rejecting the petitioners’ claims of ineffective assistance of counsel.

The petition for review is DENIED.
