Former ICE Director on 'Outrageous' Illegal Immigrant Crime and Sanctuary Cities

"Outrageous" Open Border Policies

• 🚨 Jonathan Fahey describes the current situation as "outrageous," attributing it to the "Biden-Mayorkas open border scheme" that encourages illegal immigration.
• ⚠️ He states that millions of people have been allowed into the country without proper vetting, posing risks to American safety and national security.
• 💔 The release of an illegal immigrant charged in a fatal crash is highlighted as a preventable tragedy caused by these policies.

Sanctuary Cities and Criminal Release

• 🏛️ Sanctuary cities are criticized for prioritizing the release of criminals into communities over deportation.
• 🚫 This practice is seen as a deliberate choice by Democratic politicians to put illegal immigrants' interests ahead of American citizens' safety.
• ⚖️ Judges are failing to consider risk of flight and danger to the community when setting bail for individuals who are in the country illegally and charged with crimes.

Commercial Driver's License (CDL) Concerns

• 🚚 Headlines reveal multiple instances of migrant truck drivers involved in fatal crashes, some who failed English tests and obtained licenses from sanctuary states.
• 🚗 The Department of Transportation's role in regulating CDL issuance is questioned, with states like California being singled out for lax safeguards.
• 🗣️ It is argued that obtaining a CDL should require language proficiency and demonstrated driving competence, which is not consistently enforced.

Proposed Solutions and Enforcement

• 💰 Congress is urged to limit funding to sanctuary cities as a means to incentivize compliance with federal immigration laws.
• 🚀 The Trump administration's plans for an immigration crackdown and increased deportations are discussed, with a focus on targeting sanctuary cities.
• 💸 An incentive program offering money to illegal immigrants who voluntarily leave the country is mentioned as a humane approach to enforcement.
