Sanctuary cities put criminals first

 Laura Ingraham:

In a compelling segment on The Ingraham Angle, Tom Homan, former acting director of ICE and President Trump’s border czar, sharply criticized sanctuary policies and the Biden administration’s border enforcement failures. His passionate remarks highlighted the tragedies stemming from weak immigration laws and the dire consequences for American communities.

Homan began by describing the devastating impact of illegal immigration. “I’ve talked to hundreds of angel moms and dads who buried their children because of crimes by illegal aliens,” he said. For example, he recounted heartbreaking encounters with a nine-year-old girl raped by cartel members and children dying in inhumane conditions during border crossings. “This young lady’s death could have been prevented,” he declared, directly blaming sanctuary city policies.

Homan did not hold back in condemning sanctuary jurisdictions. For instance, he accused governors and mayors of putting politics over public safety. “Shame on you,” he said, urging leaders to consider the suffering caused by their policies. Moreover, he demanded they listen to the voices of victims and their families, adding, “Governors and mayors must prioritize protecting their communities.”

He also issued a stern warning to those obstructing federal enforcement. “Read Title 18, United States Code 1324. Harboring illegal aliens is a felony,” he emphasized. Furthermore, he argued that sanctuary policies force ICE officers into dangerous situations when apprehending individuals outside controlled environments. Consequently, this approach puts officers, the public, and even the suspects at greater risk.

Under President Trump’s leadership, Homan assured viewers that public safety and national security threats would take priority. Notably, he criticized the Biden administration for a staggering 74% drop in criminal alien removals, which he argued had created a “target-rich environment” for ICE.

“Those who obstruct our mission won’t stop us,” he stated firmly. Additionally, Homan outlined plans to arrest and detain individuals in cooperative states, ensuring sanctuary cities do not impede enforcement. “We will find the resources to get the job done,” he pledged.

The Biden open borders policy has been a disaster for many Americans who have been victims of criminal illegal aliens.  Biden let in millions of illegals who were never vetted and countries around the world emptied their prisons allowing them to migrate to the US.  It was one of the most absurd policies by any president in history.  It is one of the reasons Democrats lost the 2024 election.  Kamala Harris would have been even worse than Biden on the immigration issue.  

The Sanctuary Cities in Democrat-controlled areas were especially wrong.  They were facilitating crime.

These Soros-Backed 'Charities' Are Aiding and Abetting Illegal Immigration

Remember when aiding and abetting a criminal act would lead to some pretty serious consequences?

No longer, it seems — at least, if you're a non-governmental organization (NGO) or "charity" that is helping people cross into and remain in the United States illegally. Crossing into the United States illegally is still a crime, after all — and there are a number of these organizations, tax-exempt at that, dedicated to bogging down the immigration system and making it as difficult as possible to enforce the law.
