Fox News’ resident leftist Jessica Tarlov has once again embarrassed herself, this time rushing to defend an illegal alien on social media before being forced to delete her tweet in disgrace.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that D.C. police tackled an illegal alien on the National Mall after he tried to flee. Video captured him shouting in Spanish, “Please! I’m not a criminal. I work here! I want to be with my family!”
Without missing a beat, Tarlov rushed to X to blast Trump’s law-and-order approach. She wrote:
“This doesn’t make D.C. safer. It’ll just make people not come to D.C. The cruelty is always the point.”
But what Tarlov conveniently left out or didn’t bother to check was the criminal record of the man she was defending.
Her virtue-signaling collapsed within hours when White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller dropped the receipts.
“Why are you defending a criminal illegal alien invader charged with sexually assaulting a child?” Miller wrote on X.
According to DHS, the illegal alien from Mexico was arrested in January 2024 in Fairfax County for aggravated sexual assault of a child under 13. He had a final order of removal, had already “voluntarily returned” twice, and had entered the U.S. illegally three times.
That’s who Jessica Tarlov was standing up for.

Homeland Security @DHSgov This illegal alien from Mexico was previously arrested in January 2024 in Fairfax County for aggravated sexual assault of a child under 13.
He entered and had a final order of removal and chose to voluntary return- twice. Illegally entered 3 times.
Thank you to law enforcement for getting him off of Washington DC’s streets. 5:26 PM · Aug 20, 2025 · 319.4K Views

After getting called out, Tarlov scrambled to save face, backpedaling with this pathetic excuse:
“I didn’t know he was – the DHS memo on him came out hours after the video. Wouldn’t ever defend such a person! Hopefully you guys will only go after these types versus hardworking folks that have committed no crimes! Will delete my original tweet,” Tarlov wrote.
She later tried to spin her embarrassment again:
“For those of you who think that I quietly deleted my tweet, see below. When you’re trying to be quiet you don’t reply to Stephen Miller. I wouldn’t ever want to promote knowingly wrong information so I deleted the original tweet after the DHS memo came out – which was hours after the arrest.”

“”””I don’t even know why they have her on the show. The Five is so much better when Kennedy fills in for her. “”””
Tarlov is a typical angry leftist. I much prefer when they have Harold Ford on.
LOL, dems rushing to defend illegals typically ends with mud on their faces, like the Maryland “Father” who trafficked kids.
“she should be ashamed”

don’t have any shame , just bank accounts .
No, you just promote an agenda when not in possession of any facts.
Blame it on DHS for not giving YOU the information immediately?
How about YOU wait a few hours before rushing to judgment and trying to be the first to virtue signal your disgust with President Trump?

Cue Dan Akroyd: “Jessica, you ignorant slut.”
“I’m not a criminal”...said every offender at some point in his arrest and prosecution.
I agree
Jessica is a stupid shill for DNC
She tried to demean that Intern who defended his girlfriend against a gang of thugs
Said he was a lover who had been fired
Not true
She is a pos
Too bad idiot. You jerked your knee BEFORE knowing facts. You ASSUMED based on your pitiful leftist bias.
You are a Dem, liberal hack.
FOX should fire you.
Drop dead.
“FOX should fire you.”
This is exactly why she’s on the show..............😉
Apparently the “illegal” part of “illegal alien” is difficult for Jessica to parse.
She got a real purty mouth ain’t she?
Faux should fire the witch.
Wife and i watch the 5
Tarlov is absolutely horrible
I cringe and mute when she speaks
I curse when i see her on
Harry Ford blows her doors off as a lib
I think Tucker used to have her on, poor judgement from Tucker.
>> She adds NOTHING to “The Five” or anywhere else on Fox.
No, but it might be fun to watch her get slapped around over this. Won’t be me though — don’t have teevee, don’t want teevee.
Not at all, actually. Notice that the virtue signaling left will always parse the illegal aliens as "undocumented migrants" or some such. Thus, cloaking the criminality in a legal sounding narrative.
“”She adds NOTHING to “The Five” or anywhere else on Fox.””
I don’t think FOX realizes how many viewers turn the channel to something else when she is on The Five! She has a voice that is just not meant for broadcasting ANYTHING. How the remaining members of The Five stand it, I have no idea. Maybe triple their salary if they put up with her? I have nightmares about being locked in a room with her voice over the sound system.
