This week, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform held a fiery hearing with a few bleeding-heart liberals giving safe harbor to illegal immigrants. In the hot seats: Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, and New York Governor Kathy Hochul.
To no one’s surprise, they spent most of their time demonizing ICE agents and blaming President Trump for doing exactly what the American people asked him to do.
The political theater was on full display: House Democrats hollering and grandstanding about compassion while woke governors put criminal illegal aliens over their own born-and-bred citizens.
Governor Pritzker looked like a deer in the headlights when I asked him about one horrific case that happened right under his nose earlier this year.
Here’s the scoop straight from a news clipping:
“In January 2025, federal officials issued a detainer request for an alien who was being held in Cook County jail on sexual assault of a minor charges,” the DOJ said. “Pursuant to Cook County’s restrictions, law enforcement officers did not respond to the detainer request … Following the alien’s release from local jail, he was arrested and charged with homicide just 17 days later.”
The guy in question should have never been released back onto the streets, and as for JB, he didn’t even have a dadgum excuse.
The Democrats’ playbook goes a lot deeper than virtue signaling about what it says on the Statue of Liberty. They’ll have you believe this is all about welcoming “your tired, your poor, your huddled masses.” But at the end of the day, they count on illegal immigrants to keep themselves in power.
Why do you think the House had to pass a bill to stop noncitizens from voting in local D.C. elections? This week, we overturned a 2022 law that liberal politicians passed for their own job security—and it’s sick.
But I’ll tell you this much: Our fight for the rule of law isn’t going anywhere. In fact, it’s just heating up, no matter how hysterical the Democrats get.
