Forty six year old Melissa Powell and her sixteen-year-old son Riordan were driving in Broomfield Colorado just before Christmas when their car was struck another being driven by Jose Menjivar. Menjivar's car was estimated to be traveling at 100 mph when he struck the Powell vehicle. Powell and her son were both killed. Menjivar was found unconscious and claimed not to remember the accident. Menjivar was later determined to have a blood alcohol of .249 - more than three times the limit.
Menjivar is an illegal alien who had been deported four times. He had no valid license and I'll bet a million dollars he had no insurance.
Democrats do not want these dirtbags deported. In fact, 150 democrats voted against deporting illegal aliens who have been convicted of drunk driving.
Over two-thirds of House Democrats voted Thursday in opposition to a bipartisan measure that was passed and if enacted could result in immigrants living in the U.S. illegally being deported for a DUI conviction.Then there's House Bill HR 6678Under the Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act, "driving while intoxicated or impaired" would be grounds for "barring a non-U.S. national (alien under federal law) from admission into the United States" or deporting the individual.
The vote tally was 215 Republicans and 59 Democrats in favor of the bill and 150 Democrats, including House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, voting against it. The bill passed 274-150.
To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to provide that aliens who have been convicted of or who have committed Social Security fraud are inadmissible and deportable.155 democrats voted against that, including Minority Hakeem Jeffries. Here's the list
The Biden attitude toward illegal alien crime is the more the merrier.
Three Years of Biden Immigration Policies Have Benefitted Criminal AliensComparing ICE criminal data from fiscal years 2017-2019 to 2021-2023
For three years the Biden administration has claimed that its policies are designed to focus on criminal aliens to a greater degree than the policies under the Trump administration. As DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas put it in a September 2021 memo, "By exercising our discretionary authority in a targeted way, we can focus our efforts on those who pose a threat to national security, public safety, and border security and thus threaten America's well-being."
It is now clear that the promised outcome has not been met and that the Biden administration's policies have gutted the nation’s immigration enforcement system, with no concern about the number of criminal aliens that are being released into our communities.
Official data from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) reveals that the Biden administration has arrested and removed significantly fewer criminal aliens than the Trump administration. (This data comes from both ICE public releases as well as a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by the Center for Immigration Studies.) Contrary to Secretary Mayorkas's claim, public safety and national security have been significantly undermined by the Biden administration’s reckless policies, and the threats the administration has created will continue to inflict damage on American society for many years to come.
This analysis compares the first three years of ICE criminal alien data under the Trump administration (FYs 2017, 2018, and 2019) to the first three years of ICE criminal alien data under the Biden administration (FYs 2021, 2022, and 2023), and finds that criminal aliens have been top beneficiaries of the Biden administration’s immigration agenda. A criminal alien is one who has a criminal conviction or pending criminal charges.
The data shows the Biden administration is responsible for the following when comparing FYs 2017, 2018, and 2019 to FYs 2021, 2022, and 2023:
democrats are the party representing illegal aliens and not Americans.

And Patriotic Americans say “Screw Democrats”!!!
It would be interesting to know who the victim voted for in the last election.
There’s your new “strength” amigos. More chips and salsa?
And Repukes join them.
Dems hate America because of people like us, conservatives.
Republicans say “We wanna watch Americans get screwed”
There was an old saying: "no taxation without representation." Time to revive that sentiment.
They don’t just say it, they are doing it. The average American is getting taxed out of existence in millions of different ways. I looked for an 80 gallon hot water heater - they are over double what I paid for the last one. They now have a small internal heat pump to make them more “energy efficient”. They don’t last as long which means they end up in the landfill sooner but that’s good for the environment . . . somehow. And don’t get me started on automobiles which are engineered like a NASA space module meaning they are extremely expensive and small things like air bag deployment, EV batteries catch fire or collision renders them as totaled. Just go get another new vehicle. No problem, right?
Drunk driving is the national pastime of Latin America.
May or may not be the same Melissa Powell. HOWEVER, the article identifies victim as 46...as does the voter registration. She FAFO.

Democrats have been saying “screw America “ for as long as I have been alive..
They must be held accountable.
I remember in 2014 (I think), when Senate Republicans tried to insert a similar provision in the horrific Amnesty Bill that McCain was pushing (except this provision required TWO DUIs to get deported), and the Democrats in committee simply voted it down.
So no surprise here.
There’s no such thing as “Americans”.
All peeples on all de Erf beez “Americans”.
Cuz all peeples beez free. So, dey izz all “Americans”. They just haven’t gotten here yet.
This is known as “democracy”, according to the Sanhedrin.
Every day that passes, I think more and more that maybe The French got it right.
Do you think they'd lend us some guillotines?
Perp must be executed to prevent future deaths. It’s the only way.
“Bought and paid for Republicans like McConnell, John Thune, James Lankford and Mike Rounds are just as responsible for open borders as Democrats.
They must be held accountable.”
BTTT
And I say right back at them!
