‘Not Gonna Take That Bait’: MS NOW / CNBC’s Joe Kernen Spars With Dem Senator Over Party’s Outrage Over Deportations
Daily Caller ^ | January 12, 2026 | Nicole Silverio

Posted on 01/12/2026 8:50:55 AM PST by WhiteHatBobby0701

CNBC (MS NOW) host Joe Kernen confronted Democratic Virginia Sen. Mark Warner on Monday as the senator criticized the surge in arrests of illegal immigrants made by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

The panelists on “Squawk Box” discussed the response to the death of Renee Good in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Wednesday, who was shot by an ICE officer while allegedly accelerating her vehicle forward during a confrontation with agents. Warner claimed that ICE agents are detaining illegal immigrants who have not committed any crimes, but rather are arresting mothers dropping off their kids at school and people heading to work.

“[Seventy-five] percent of the people, no criminal record, secure the border absolutely, have masked ICE agents picking up moms, dropping off kids or folks going to work. I don’t think that’s what the American people signed up for. And now we’ve got this split in city after city across America. That is not good for the sake of law enforcement. That is not good for the sake of actually having a rational immigration process,” Warner said.

Mark Warner is of the Washington DC City-State, one of four Democrats who represent that single city-state.

CNBC is part of MS NOW as part of the Comcast-Versant split.

Illegal immigration is a crime.

Those who are here illegally are criminals.

This is not difficult.

The Democrats are trying to pretend they are stupid.

They are starting to convince me.

Lol.

“...allegedly accelerating her vehicle forward...”


Allegedly??? Is there any doubt that the car was going forward?

I don’t think.. is where warner should have stopped.. that’s
what the American people signed up for.

warner doesn't have a useful brain cell to think with, much less
speak for the American people.

She wasn't arrested (her actions precluded that possibility), at a school or heading to work.

RARE to see a TREASONOUS Democrat Senator ASKED any HARDBALL questions.

Usually with elite stream media it’s pure SOFTBALL.

Ironically, hardball pitchers like Kernen and Santelli are a bit off the beaten path because they are on a supposed “financial news” network.

Love to see a clown like Warner asked by ANYBODY on Planet Earth if he could define a woman.

Seems like ALL the Democrats have avoided that HARDBALL question.

Kernen is a smart guy. He should realize it’s a total waste of time and effort to use facts to argue with a democrat.

What if we rounded up criminal illegals with orders of deportation ?
Dems are full of it when they didnt complain about the Deporter in Chiefs record setting deportations and Trumps efforts to fulfill our demands.

Biden had no legal authority to open the borders.

They are not here legally.

...arresting mothers dropping off their kids at school

I've been hearing this talking point for a bit now. Adam "Shifty" Schiff said Renee Good
had dropped her son off at school and was just driving down the street.

The Ashli Babbitt shooting was murder. Joe should have asked Mark to explain the differences.

I have a question for demonicRATS. What does the "Enforcement" part of Immigration and Customs ENFORCEMENT mean?

Somebody needs to make a robot to wipe demonicRATS asses because that’s all they need illegals for. They’ve admitted it. We can build robots that can pick lettuce and mow lawns and clean toilets and hotel rooms.

Why doesn’t anybody ask these clowns why they’re in favor with illegal immigration?

And why not just raise the immigration quote if they think immigration is such a great deal?

Do you ever hear anyone ask this?

Make the bastards defend a illegal immigration, not deflect to ICE

Joe Kernen is one of the very few good guys on CNBC.

Mark Warner is absolutely sure of his information and if you doubt him, he’s got a golden shower dossier on Trump from one of his back channel Russian oligarch contacts.
