Spanberger ripped over ignored ICE detainer after illegal alien with 18 prior charges accused of sex assault

An illegal alien with a lengthy criminal history has been arrested on sex crime charges in Virginia after a federal immigration enforcement detainer request could have seen him deported from the United States.

Cristobal Liobardo Vasquez-Sanchez, 25, a Salvadoran national, racked up 14 criminal charges this year alone before his May 22 arrest on charges of sexual battery and object sexual penetration by force. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said it had previously issued a detainer for Vasquez-Sanchez, but that request was denied.

At the direction of Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger, Virginia ended state agency cooperation with ICE and has demanded judicial warrants where immigration experts say such warrants are wholly irrelevant.

Just days before Vasquez-Sanchez’s alleged sexual assault, Spanberger issued an executive order adding further roadblocks for federal immigration officers to operate in the state.

ICE Protesters in New Jersey Threaten ‘Death’ To Federal Officers and Their Families

Raucous and violent anti-immigration-enforcement demonstrations continued at a New Jersey Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center Thursday night, resulting in the arrest of nine people who allegedly bit, kicked, and punched officers while others shouted death threats to federal agents.

Some shouted, “You’re dead,” and “I’ll kill your whole fucking family.”

“I have your face, motherfucker, you’re dead,” another shouted.

A video reported by the New York Post shows a trio of anti-ICE demonstrators at the Delaney Hall ICE facility being hauled away as one obnoxious protester berates agents through a megaphone: “You look like a f–king clown, s–t don’t even line up. Fix your s–t, bitch.”

“What the f–k are you guys doing in there?!” another yelled, while others screamed, “Take your gun and shoot yourself” and “Every cop, every fed, shoot yourself in the head.”

The rioters at the Newark facility are accused of biting, kicking, and punching agents, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in statement posted on X Friday.

He also said New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill “refused to allow state police to assist our officers.”

“Assaulting and obstructing ICE law enforcement is a crime and felony,” Mullin said in the post. “Throughout the night, nine rioters were arrested. Anyone who assaults law enforcement will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

“Law and order will prevail,” he added.

In another post on Thursday, Mullin detailed the records of some of the hardened illegal alien criminals being held at the facility.

Anti-ICE Rioters Assault Agents with Unknown Chemical Substance During Violent Riot at New Jersey Detention Center

A pair of anti-ICE rioters allegedly attacked ICE agents with a chemical substance on Tuesday outside of the Delaney Hall Detention Center in Newark, New Jersey. 

The leftwing rioters famously laid siege upon the ICE facility last Summer, and they’re back in full force again.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, rioters occupied the Newark facility this week, setting up barricades to block vehicles leaving the facility and assaulting feds.

Clashes between law enforcement and the anti-ICE rioters have continued nightly. Video from Wednesday shows federal agents pushing back against rioters with strobe lights and pepper spray as they’re pelted with objects from the mob.

Leftists were also seen yelling, “Grab your gun and kill yourself,” at the agents before another clash, where agents used batons to fight off the lunatics.

The night before, two individuals were arrested for assaulting, resisting, and impeding law enforcement after spraying federal agents with an “unknown chemical substance” during a similar altercation, according to Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin.

“Anyone who assaults law enforcement will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” Mullin wrote on X.

Tonight, ICE law enforcement officers were assaulted by anti-ICE rioters who sprayed law enforcement with an unknown chemical substance.

Two individuals were arrested for assaulting, resisting, and impeding federal officers.

Assaulting and obstructing ICE law enforcement is a crime and felony.

Anyone who assaults law enforcement will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Don Lemon Discovers Rules After a Church Service Gets Disrupted

“Independent journalist” and former CNN anchor Don Lemon filed a motion today in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis seeking the release of grand jury transcripts in the federal civil rights case against him. From the AP:

Lemon pleaded not guilty in February to federal civil rights charges, following a protest at a Minnesota church where an Immigration and Customs Enforcement official is a pastor. He is one of 39 people charged in the January incident.

Lemon insists he was at the Cities Church in St. Paul to chronicle the Jan. 18 protest but was not a participant.

Lemon and another independent journalist, Georgia Fort, filed a motion in February seeking transcripts of the grand jury proceedings that resulted in the indictments against them and seven others.

In the latest filing in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis, Lemon’s attorneys argue that “the past 15 months have seen an unprecedented and growing distrust in the Justice Department’s use of the grand jury process.” For that reason, the transcripts from Lemon’s grand jury should be released, his attorneys said.

“In the past two weeks alone, several courts have chastised Justice Department prosecutors for irregularities in the grand jury process and gone so far as to dismiss indictments for grand jury misconduct,” Lemon’s attorneys said in the Wednesday filing.

Lemon and journalist Georgia Fort face charges tied to a Jan. 18 protest that disrupted worship at Cities Church in St. Paul. Prosecutors charged 39 defendants in the case, while Lemon insists he attended the protest to document events as a journalist, not to join the disruption.

The case centers on a protest at a house of worship connected to David Easterwood, a Cities Church pastor who also serves as acting director of the ICE field office in St. Paul.

Protesters entered during Sunday worship, chanted, confronted people inside, and turned a sacred space into a political theater.

Lemon’s defenders want the country to see only a journalist with a camera. Worshippers had reason to see something else: a service interrupted, a congregation targeted, and a church treated like fair game because activists disliked the pastor’s government job.

Lemon is now arguing that recent grand jury problems in other federal cases make the transcripts necessary, with his attorneys pointing to dismissals and judicial rebukes in Chicago, Wyoming, and Rhode Island.

ICE Arrests Daughter of Cuban Communist Regime ‘Old Guard’ General

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently arrested Alina Rosales Aguirreurreta, daughter of General Ulises Rosales del Toro, a longtime key figure of the communist Castro regime.

ICE sources confirmed to Martí Noticias on Tuesday that Rosales Aguirreurreta, who is a doctor according to past statements from her family, was arrested in Florida. Her 84-year-old father, General Rosales del Toro, is widely described as part of the Cuban regime’s “old guard.” While keeping a relatively low profile from the public, the Cuban general has reportedly exerted significant political and military power in Cuba throughout the years thanks to his deep ties with both late dictator Fidel Castro and his brother and successor, Raúl Castro.

Rosales del Toro has occupied several high-ranking positions in the Cuban regime and the Cuban Communist Party over the past decades — including, but not limited to, vice president of the council of ministers, agriculture minister, and chief of the general staff of the revolutionary armed forces (FAR) in addition to holding the honorary title of “Hero of the Republic of Cuba.”

Martí Noticias first reported Alina Rosales Aguirreurreta’s presence in United States territory in February. According to testimonies given by her relatives, Rosales Aguirreurreta is reportedly believed to have entered the United States in 2023 during the administration of former President Joe Biden with a U.S. B-1/B-2 non-immigrant visa issued in Havana and has resided in Miami— staying in southern Florida hoping to adjust her migratory status.

“Let it be clear: the henchmen of the Castro regime and their accomplices have no place in the United States,” Rep. Mario Díaz-Balart (R-FL) wrote in a social media post applauding the arrest of Rosales Aguirreurreta.

Democrat Senator Andy Kim Pepper Sprayed by ICE During Memorial Day Riot at ICE Facility

Senator Andy Kim (D-NJ) was pepper-sprayed by ICE agents while participating in a riot outside of an ICE detention facility in Newark, New Jersey, on Monday.

Instead of spending Memorial Day honoring our fallen troops, Kim joined the rioters attacking law enforcement alongside New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill and Reps. Rob Menendez, LaMonica McIver and Nellie Pou.

Masked leftist rioters were seen vandalizing the city and removing large blocks from the sidewalks to set up barricades outside of the Delaney Hall Detention Center to block vehicles leaving the facility. In multiple clips circulating online, the insurrectionists could be seen searching through the vehicles with flashlights before allowing them to pass.

Kim was seen at one point attempting to negotiate with the insurrectionists, asking them to stop throwing things at vehicles and to clear a path in the parking lot. Kim is then seen apologizing to the protesters and instigating further unrest after ICE agents pushed through the crowds.

“I don’t trust them,” Kim told the left-wing rioters after blaming ICE for failing to make a “deal.”

Pepper spray and pepper balls were later deployed during a clash between agents and rioters. Kim was seen screaming at agents on an armored truck as they used crowd control measures.

Video from the scene shows protesters pouring water into Kim’s eyes following the incident.

ICE Recruitment Tweets Are So Racist That Cops Feared They Could Incite Neo-Nazi Violence

Colorado law enforcement officials warned their counterparts across the country that social media posts by the Department of Homeland Security recruiting for ICE contained so many white supremacist themes that they could endanger the public, according to internal records obtained by The Intercept.

The Colorado Information Analysis Center cautioned in a March bulletin that “violent extremists” might perceive “White Supremacy Ideology in ICE Recruitment Materials, Leading to a Potentially Increased Threat Environment.”

The bulletin from an agency tasked with preventing terrorism advised law enforcement offices throughout the United States that these posts could create a “permissive environment to engage in vigilante action and/or violence against individuals perceived to be immigrants.”

These DHS posts, the analysts warned, could convince “white supremacist violent extremists to attempt to join or infiltrate ICE and engage in bias motivated violence, endangering the public, other ICE personnel, and local law enforcement.”

The bulletin circulated following months of inflammatory social media posts by the Department of Homeland Security intended to drive ICE recruitment and promote the Trump administration’s agenda of violent mass deportation.

Senate Abandons Trump’s ICE, Border Funding Bill for Early Vacation; Thune Admits Paxton Endorsement Played Role

The Senate is heading home until June without finishing a reconciliation bill, after Republican tensions over the package coincided with President Donald Trump’s endorsement of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R-TX) against incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX).

Punchbowl News founder Jake Sherman posted on X: “BREAKING NEWS: THE SENATE will go home until June, leaving the reconciliation bill unfinished. THUNE just told senators in the room. All because of the DOJ weaponization fund. House is expected to follow suit soon.”

Brendan Pedersen, a senior reporter with Punchbowl News, posted on X: “Thune asked if Senate Rs are responding to politics — ie, Trump endorsements and snubs this week

‘It’s hard to divorce anything that happens here from what’s happening in political atmosphere around us,’ Thune said. ‘You can’t disconnect those things.’”

While Republican Senators publicly claim substantive issues with the bill were the driving factor behind the early vacation, Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) acknowledged President Donald Trump’s Tuesday endorsement of Ken Paxton over incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) weighed heavily on Republican Senators’ minds as they skipped town instead of advancing a top Trump priority as planned.

The comments came after Trump endorsed Paxton in the Texas Senate Republican primary runoff against Cornyn, a move that has sharply intensified pressure inside the Senate GOP ahead of the May 26 runoff.

Vice President JD Vance told Breitbart News White House Correspondent Nick Gilbertson on Tuesday, May 19, that President Donald Trump’s endorsement of Paxton “sends a message” that lawmakers “have got to serve the people” who elected them.

“Today we saw the president endorse Ken Paxton over John Cornyn in the Texas Senate race. Do you think that sends a message going forward for the next cycle to senators considering running for election, or any MAGA-aligned potential candidates that are considering challenging them?” Gilbertson asked.

“I’ve known John Cornyn for a long time, but unfortunately, you know, when it really counted, Ken Paxton was there for the country, was there for the president, and that’s why he ultimately earned the president’s endorsement,” Vance said.

Vance said Trump viewed Paxton as someone who would be a “better senator” and framed the endorsement as part of Trump’s broader push for Republicans who will fight for the voters who elected them.

“I think the message that people should take from this is, fundamentally, you have got to serve the people who sent you. If you don’t do that, you’re going to find yourself out of step with voters, or out of step with the President of the United States, and that’s not a good place to be politically,” Vance said.

HOW CURIOUS: Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger Signing Executive Order to Keep ICE Away From Polling Places 

Virginia’s new Democrat Governor Abigail Spanberger has just announced that she is signing an executive order to keep ICE agents away from polling places.

Why do you suppose such a thing would be necessary?

Democrats assure us that illegal aliens are not voting because they are forbidden from doing so by law. So why would they be worried about ICE showing up at polling places? It just doesn’t make any sense.

NBC News reported:

Virginia Gov. Spanberger to sign order on dealing with federal agents at polling places

Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger said Tuesday that she plans to issue an executive order on Wednesday to help election workers respond if federal agents show up at polling sites in Virginia.

Speaking at a conference hosted by the Center for American Progress, a progressive think tank, Spanberger said the order would include details on “how Virginia state employees or people working in support of Virginia’s state-run elections can react to, in this particular case, federal agents who might be appearing at a location where the worry is that they’re principally there to intimidate or scare people.”

Some election officials and Democratic politicians have worried that President Donald Trump — who routinely makes false claims of widespread voter fraud — might interference in this year’s midterm elections, which are run by the state and local officials across the country.

“Throughout history, we have seen efforts at intimidating voters. My worry is that we will continue to see those heightened,” Spanberger said. “The reality is that the challenges and the fear that people might have when going to the polling place is real.”

INSANE! UNLICENSED Illegal Alien Driver Causes Accident on Freeway Right Next to ICE Arresting Another Illegal

Real America’s Voice Correspondent Ben Bergquam, host of Law and Border, captured an incredible moment on camera when an illegal alien crashed his car on the same road as police were arresting another illegal alien driver.

During the arrest on the side of a highway in Broward County, Florida, Bergquam captured footage of a white pickup truck rear-ending another gray pickup truck. The gray truck, driven by an illegal alien, was hit after the driver slammed on the brakes and got into a minor collision with another car, which drove off, as the white truck collided with the rear.

Officers rushed across the highway only to discover another illegal alien driving one of the cars!

“We’re over here picking up one illegal driving this van, and then this ends up happening. This driver slammed on his brakes, this guy hits him, but then this guy just happens to be illegal too,” Bergquam said to the camera.

“The density of the population of illegals in America, most Americans just can’t comprehend it. I mean, literally, we’re picking up this guy. This guy’s an illegal driver, and gets rear-ended by this guy, who’s just on his way to work. Crazy,” he added.

Bergquam told The Gateway Pundit that the driver was discovered to be driving without a license or insurance. The driver had also been arrested multiple times prior for driving without a license.
