Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The Briefing,” New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) said she would assist the Trump administration with deporting violent criminals from her state, but not employed immigrants seeking asylum.
Hochul said, “I will work with the Trump Administration to remove the people he said he was going after. I will help you get the criminals out of here, the ones who are violent criminals who are hurting other people, the human traffickers, the people who are dealing in drugs, people with guns. I want them gone. I’ll help you, but don’t take the home health care aides, the 160 who are going to lose their jobs that I met today and talk to. They’ll lose their jobs and they lose their status. You know what that means there’s 160 vulnerable New Yorkers who are going to lose their caregivers. The people who work in the restaurants and hospitality, let them get jobs, pay their taxes, be part of our communities like my grandpa was a migrant farm worker. Everybody comes and starts out in struggles but you know what? Over time it works. It’s the American dream.”
She added, “Again, we will help the Trump administration, we have been doing this for years, get rid of the true criminals. But coming here to seek asylum, as they have for the last few years, or coming with temporary protected status, like 300,000 Venezuelans did and people from Haiti, they had legal status when they came. So when you take it away once they’re here, it’s just like a cruel joke on them. So they’re not the criminals. Let’s find them a legal pathway. Let’s give them work authorization.”

As long as they get at least six years “due process” first, right Tammy?
Then why not let the state round up the violent criminals and ICE focus on the employed ones?
No voting rights for illegal criminal alians.
Make them go home and apply for a visa.
Why can’t that woman understand that an illegal immigrant IS aginst the law. Yes, there is a legal process to come into this country, but it is generally not done by an occupant of this country;that comes later. That is how the law is written. Her thought process must be special.
The point is to get rid of the working ones so that Americans can work again, the non-working ones of course also need to be removed and are probably in activities that trouble the local police, or females who have and are, producing kids and feeding off of social services.
This new line of “if they are working” or “if they have a job” is bizarre since that is the problem with them in the first place.
She’s a Nancy Pelosi Jr.
Was she the one who said she needed people to wipe her ***?
In violation of federal law. Our representatives represent foreigners over Americans. Our government no longer works for us.
She’s still breaking the law by sheltering those who have broken federal law. Aiding and abetting by her and her minions is still breaking the law. I’d throw her sorry butt in jail.
Funny how democrats think they can pick and choose which laws they have to follow.
“The point is to get rid of the working ones so that Americans can work again”
The employers choose to employ people who are not allowed to work. They could choose to employ legal workers but don’t.
Any employer, in agriculture, hospitality, construction or other who employs people illegally, should be arrested, charged and when found guilty have their business confiscated as the proceeds of crime.
No visa. Make them go home
“You can round up the uppity slaves if you like but don’t touch the rest. This state’s economy is based on a certain percentage of slave labor and can’t function without it.”
“I’ll Work with Trump to Remove Criminals, Not Employed Immigrants”
IOW, she’ll enforce the laws on the books that she likes at the moment, and ignore the ones that she doesn’t.
Stop the sanctuary city cr**. This isn’t the wild west...and NYS is not ye old Mission Church.
Depriving hochul of revenue generated by working illegals?
That's beyond unthinkable!!
I wonder if she would consider anyone invading her own house an IMMIGRANT or a criminal???
She thinks she can redefine criminal activity
Here's the solution: send them ALL illegals home - then for 3 years take a small portion of the savings from supporting these people and pay Americans $100 an hour to wash dishes and pick crops. We'll save a bundle.
Kathy is a criminal. She should unconditionally surrender.
