New York Governor Andrew Cuomo mimicked California Gov. Jerry Browns approach to immigration Thursday, pardoning 18 convicted illegal immigrants who were facing deportation.
Cuomo, a Democrat, praised himself on Twitter for his compassion, before linking to a New York Times article supporting the move. Cuomo claimed the federal government is tear[ing] families apart with the current immigration policy and felt he was taking the critical step to defend those who were unfairly targeted.

So he pardons them on their current convictions. Can’t they simply be arrested again, given a new charge of being in the country illegally, and then deported?
The GOP needs to adopt these in your face tactics in response to Dem policies. Trump ought to pardon all tax cheats and gun violators.
Sooooo,governors brown and cuomo are okay with allowing convicted criminals to roam free,as long as they aren’t white...minority rapists,murderers and pedophiles roaming free okay with liberals?????
Right and immigration doesn’t care if you’ve been pardoned or not as far as using the conviction as reason for immediate deportation. Immigration does not pretend like the crime was never committed.
This is why we have the electoral college, to prevent states like New York and California from stealing elections.
By eliminating rule of law, you instill chaos. I am beginning to see Cuomo as the Riddler and Brown as the Penguin. The White House looks like Wayne Manor, and the Police are all Jim Gordons, trying to restore order while the Democrats led by Penguin and the Riddle keep releasing criminals into society
And these SOB leftist government stooges can't figure out why millions of law abiding Americans no longer trust those in government.
Geeez
Well, yeah. Are you and I the only ones who have noticed?
Has the MSM got this yet?
And what of the many other convicts of differing backgrounds.
An illegal from Somalia is pardoned. But the black guy from Queens rots away; forgotten.
I will never understand liberals if I live to be 140.
This governor has turned his back on the citizens and the rule of law.
And how many U.S. citizens has he pardoned?
I could not find an online record of all pardons by Cuomo since he took office.
ALL illegal aliens are subject to removal.
Unfortunately common practice is only to remove those convicted of additional crimes committed here.
Any illegal alien pardoned by a democrat governor should go to the head of the list for immediate deportation.
while deblasio claims the inmate population is down. They are not arresting anyone and playing the social justice card. This is what you call white scum
Can’t pardon the Federal crimes of being here - I’d make them targets for deportation to show what happens when one openly spits on the Constitution....
He's as personally unlikable as Hillary and as dumb as Maxine Waters. Hope he wins the nom.
