Cuccinelli apparently deletes tweet highlighting Hanukkah stabbing suspect's immigrant parent
The Hill ^ | December 30, 2019 | Zack Budryk

Acting director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Ken Cuccinelli has apparently deleted a tweet about the suspect charged with a stabbing attack at a Hanukkah celebration in New York over the weekend, saying "American values did not take hold" in the man's family although he is a U.S. citizen.

“The attacker is the U.S. Citizen son of an illegal alien who got amnesty under the 1986 amnesty law for illegal immigrants. Apparently, American values did not take hold among this entire family, at least this one violent, and apparently bigoted, son,” Cuccinelli said in a since-deleted tweet, referencing a bipartisan bill signed by then-President Reagan granting legal status to undocumented immigrants who entered the country before 1982.

“Apparently, American values did not take hold among this entire family,”

seems about right.
Import savages, get savagery.

Second generation family members are more likely to turn terrorist. The Pulse nightclub shooter was one example. It has held true around the world.

Apparently not.

But truth better not be spoken, or you will be cancelled.

He should not have deleted the tweet. He should have doubled down.

“American values”? “You mean, like, c’mon in and get some free stuff. Here’s your amnesty. Here’s your welfare, food stamps, medicaid, victims...” Those kinds of values?

Agree.

Deleting tweets like this only makes you appear weak, indecisive, and easily spooked and controlled by your enemies.

Say it loud. Say it proud..

He should have left it. Especially because it skewers Reagan for his worst mistake — the 1986 amnesty

Oh screw the left. I have a rule that goes something like this: Once you try to shoot up a church or rape or murder anybody, I get to call you every name in the book and you deserve all of it.

And yeah, we would have been better off without this wonderful “citizen” whose origins are illegal.

But I have to constantly read articles about angelic illegals who are cooking delicious burritos at home and be told illegals are the best of “us”.

Which is why we need to all illegal aliens & visa overstays back to their country of origin and implement a 5 to 10 year immigration moratorium. Immigrants must become citizens & assimilate into our culture.

Sometimes you get nasty little notes from Twitter to delete a tweet they deem offensive or be suspended. I don’t know if that’s what happened but I have seen it happen to others.

I think it was somewhere in the Caribbean. However, immigrant parents had nothing to do with it. He was a member of that loony Black Israelite group.

This country may never recover from Reagan’s blunder. We haven’t yet.

Ah yes. The same amnesty that infamous Democrat Ted Kennedy said WOULD BE THE LAST ONE!!!!

Nice job in bringing attention to it at this time, btw.

Not that his immigration history might give a clue to his religious and cultural heritage
