ICE Asks Gov. Gavin Newsom Not to Release 33,000 Criminal Illegal Aliens

Sanctuary state California’s Democrat leaders consistently release dangerous illegal alien criminals back onto the streets and defy federal detainer requests, even for murderers. That could mean that more than 33,000 foreign criminals will be released onto California's streets.

Among the illegal alien criminals who should be in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody are nearly 400 murderers and over 3,000 burglars, according to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. She asked California Gov. Gavin Newsom to stop prioritizing a political agenda over his people and not to release the 33,179 criminal illegal aliens without notifying ICE first.

McLaughlin explained, “The crimes of these aliens include 399 homicides, 3,313 assaults, 3,171 burglaries, 1,011 robberies, 8,380 dangerous drugs offenses, 1,984 weapons offenses, and 1,293 sexual predatory offenses.”

Newsom’s refusal to hand over a Mexican illegal alien who ran over and killed 11-year-old Aiden Antonio Torres De Paz in Escondido, California, just before Thanksgiving is only one example of California Democrats siding with murderous foreign criminals. And of course, it is not simply that the authorities in California help the illegal aliens escape justice; they also enable them to commit more crimes.

It's no coincidence that "California" has become synonymous with "catastrophe." While there are many Republicans still living in California, the deep-blue coastal cities are keeping destructive Marxists in power — and illegal alien criminals out of custody.

In light of all this, ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons sent a letter to California Attorney General Rob Bonta, according to a Feb. 5 DHS press release. The release exposed profoundly shocking statistics:

California’s failure to honor ICE detainers has resulted in the release of 4,561 criminal illegal aliens since January 20....

The “sanctuary” designation is blatant defiance of Federal law. It’s about time the criminals who institute this seditious obstruction of Fed law be brought to heel and forced to face charges.

In a just world it would be hard for Newscum to run for President from a prison cell.

Absolutely right.

The evil those “sanctuary” promoters have committed has not been punished.

Thanks. It seems to me that “sanctuary” designations is one of the primary strategies behind their color revolution.

It serves to harbor a population of illegal voters, provide a rallying cry for their street gangs and promote a general disregard for law and order and the enforcement of it. In particular Federal law.

Illegals committing crimes are good talking points for MAGA candidates running for office. Show pictures of victims of rape, murders, etc. Then show pictures of arrested suspects . Then show clear photos of demonstrators that tried to stop the Federal agents. Then show the picture of the liberal running for office and stating his position on the Federal agents doing their job.

Gavin will commute their sentences and let them go. The thugs aren’t going to Brentwood, Malibu, or Napa. They are going to East L.A. Bakersfield, or Stockton. The democrats don’t care and the criminals will be released just to spite Trump and the idiot voters will love them for it.

33,000. That’s a couple of infantry divisions right there. Who says we weren’t invaded?

Gavin had no problem murdering 13 people in the palisades in order to reimagine it so of course he would release illegal alien murderers

Gutfield had a hilarious video of Newscum negotiating with a deaf prostitute for services required.

The hand signals captured the intent exactly.

Newsom (trembling voice): “I’ve stared down some bad hombres but that Bondi has me sinking to the floor in panic.”

Newsom’s refusal to hand over a Mexican illegal alien who ran over and killed 11-year-old.

Californians voted for that result.

Gavin restricted from making good decisions because of politics.

“That could mean that more than 33,000 foreign criminals will be released onto California’s streets.”

Is this happening because the government know the ones they release will only attack private citizens not them or their families?
