We Knew It Was This All Along…

CNN commentator Scott Jennings exposed the extreme open-borders stance of Democrats by cornering Tennessee congressional candidate Justin Pearson, who squirmed and evaded simple questions about deporting violent criminal illegals – revealing the party’s reluctance to protect American citizens from threats unleashed by Biden’s lax policies.

This on-air dismantling highlights how leftists prioritize “undocumented” migrants over victims of their crimes.

Jennings pressed Pearson during the heated exchange on CNN’s NewsNight, asking “Is there a single illegal alien you’d deport?!”

Pearson hesitated and then stuttered “You know…”

Jennings pressed: “Is there ONE? NO? Is this the 2026 Democrat position?!”

“Do they need to deport illegal aliens?” Jennings continued, adding “Can you say it? CAN YOU SAY IT?”

“Do we need an agency to deport illegal aliens. YES OR NO?” Jennings further queried.

Hakeem Jeffries Suddenly Discovers Border Security as 2026 Panic Sets In 

In a visit to Laredo, Texas, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries attempted to rebrand himself as a supporter of “strong, safe, and secure borders.”

The messaging shift was striking, not because border security is controversial, but because it conflicts with years of Democrat resistance to enforcement policies that would meaningfully achieve that goal.

Standing alongside Henry Cuellar, Jeffries emphasized the importance of U.S.–Mexico trade, the renewal of the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement, and the economic harm caused by tariffs and ICE enforcement actions at worksites.

Laredo’s mayor highlighted the city’s role as a major port of entry and a central hub in the bilateral commercial relationship.

Jeffries followed with familiar Democrat language about “shared prosperity,” humane enforcement, and the need for stability and certainty.

The rhetorical pivot came when Jeffries declared support for “strong, safe, and secure borders.” That phrase has been a cornerstone of Republican messaging for years, particularly under President Donald Trump, who built his first and second administrations around border enforcement, physical barriers, and expanded deportations.

For much of the Biden administration, Democrat leadership dismissed those policies as excessive, unnecessary, or politically motivated.

Now, facing public frustration over record encounters at the southern border and mounting pressure in swing districts, Democrat leaders appear eager to sound like moderates.

The substance, however, tells a different story. Jeffries criticized ICE for conducting worksite enforcement operations and suggested that agents were targeting “law-abiding immigrant families.”

He called for independent investigations and argued that the Department of Justice could not be trusted to oversee enforcement actions fairly. The mayor echoed opposition to a border wall, stating that the focus should be on “bridges” rather than barriers.

This approach reflects the core tension within the Democrat position. Leaders publicly endorse border security while opposing the very tools required to enforce immigration law at scale.

Guatemalan Citizen Admits Using Stolen Identity to Obtain Custody of Teen Migrant

A Guatemalan national unlawfully residing in the United States pleaded guilty to charges of aggravated identity theft and false statements related to the submission of a fraudulent application to sponsor an unaccompanied alien child.

Court documents say that Felix Coc Choc, 29, of Rogers, Arkansas, submitted an application to the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Refugee Resettlement under penalty of perjury to sponsor and obtain custody of a UAC after the UAC entered the United States illegally.

As admitted in the plea agreement, after the 16-year-old Guatemalan UAC entered the United States illegally in Jan. 2023, Coc Choc submitted an application to sponsor the UAC, falsely claiming to be the UAC’s brother, J.C.J. Coc Choc also provided to ORR J.C.J.’s Guatemalan national identification card and birth certificate in support of the sponsorship application. 

After initially denying that he was using another individual’s identity, Coc Choc admitted to impersonating J.C.J and then submitted a sponsorship application in his true name. ORR denied this application as a result of the fraud.

Coc Choc pleaded guilty to one count of making a false, fictitious or fraudulent statement and one count of aggravated identity theft. At sentencing, Coc Choc faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison on the false statement count, and a mandatory consecutive penalty of two years in prison on the aggravated identity theft count. The Court will schedule Coc Choc’s sentencing at a later date.  A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

Somali Activists Who Can Barely Speak English DEMAND Reparations Over Trauma From ICE Raids in Minnesota

Somali Activists with Neighbors United demanded reparations after the recent ICE raids.

Neighbors United is a far-left organization started by the Somali community in Minnesota.

The Somali activists gathered together for a press conference on Friday to demand “relief from the damages of ICE terror.”

The Department of Homeland Security arrested more than 4,000 dangerous criminal aliens, including sex offenders, gang members and terrorists in Operation Metro Surge.

“Despite coordinated attacks of violence against our law enforcement, our officers have made more than 4,000 arrests of illegal aliens including murderers, pedophiles, rapists, gang members, and terrorists in Minnesota since Operation Metro Surge began,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. 

“We need sanctuary politicians to cooperate with us by notifying us before releasing public safety threats back onto the streets to commit more crimes and create more victims. We will not back down from our mission to remove criminal illegal aliens from American neighborhoods,” she added. 

The Somalis spoke broken English as they made outrageous demands which included direct grants to immigrant, black and brown small businesses making less than $200,000 per year.

“We believe programs fit into our criteria. For Somali –small business owners, not those who make $200,000 and above,” the Somali said.

“We don’t make that much amount. We have been suffering since the crisis of ICE. We also demand an immediate help to evictions so families are not pushed to homelessness during the crisis,” she said.

“Our community deserves accountability. Our community deserves safety. We need also justice for those who lost their lives defending the community,” she said.

Illegal Alien Accused of Trying to Randomly Drown Woman at Florida Beach Was Shielded from Deportation by Biden Admin.

An illegal immigrant who is accused of attempted murder in a Florida incident was in the country because the Biden administration allowed him to stay.

Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said a man identified as Said Alexander Hernandez-Gonzalez, 26, a Venezuelan, was charged with attempted first-degree premeditated murder in connection with the Feb. 12 incident, according to WPEC-TV.

The suspect, a resident of Port St. Lucie, Florida, is in the country illegally after his work visa expired.

Hernandez Gonzalez illegally entered the country in 2023 and was paroled by being granted temporary protected status, the Department of Homeland Security said in a news release.

“Said Alexander Hernandez Gonzalez — a product of the Biden administration’s open-border policies — brutally attacked a woman on the beach and attempted to drown and kill her,” Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said.

SHOCKING: Liberian Illegal Alien Infiltrates U.S. National Guard and Minnesota Prison System After Overstaying Visa—Arrested Following Decade of Fraud

A Liberian national has been arrested after spending over a decade masquerading as a U.S. citizen, even going so far as to join the military and work as a law enforcement officer.

According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), 45-year-old Liberian national Morris Brown was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in Minneapolis on January 15 following an extensive federal investigation tied to Operation Twin Shield.

Federal authorities say Brown last entered the United States legally in 2014 on a nonimmigrant student visa, but that visa was terminated the following year after he failed to enroll in a full course of academic study, placing him out of lawful status.

Instead of departing the country as required by law, DHS officials allege Brown embarked on what U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Director Joseph Edlow described as a decade-long scheme of deception.

“Operation Twin Shield continues to deliver results as the Department of Homeland Security relentlessly pursues those who seek to cheat our immigration system,” said USCIS Director Joseph Edlow.

“This alien tried every trick in the book to remain in the United States after losing legal status. We will use every tool at our disposal to ensure he faces justice for his many violations of the law.”

Even more alarming, federal officials say Brown enlisted in the Pennsylvania Army National Guard in 2014, despite not having legal immigration status, and subsequently went AWOL the following year.

He was eventually taken into custody and discharged from military service in 2022 under “other than honorable conditions,” according to DHS.

Yet, two years after that discharge, Brown allegedly attempted to naturalize as a U.S. citizen based on his prior military service, an application DHS described as “another commission of fraud.”

Maryland to ‘Reap the Consequences’ of Dem Governor Wes Moore’s Political Stunt

States don’t come much bluer than Maryland. My father-in-law, who lived much of his adult life in Maryland, was heavily involved in local politics there, as a conservative Democrat – there were some then, and in Maryland, even in the ’60s and ’70s, you registered Democrat, or you were shut out of the process. He has told me on numerous occasions that there wasn’t an elected official in Maryland who had two IQ points to rub together.

Case in point: Governor Wes Moore, who on Wednesday was eviscerated by Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt for his action prohibiting local law enforcement from working with Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Here’s how the Press Secretary responded to a question on the topic:

First of all, it’s another despicable action by Governor Wes Moore. Why would you prevent your state and local law enforcement from cooperating with federal law enforcement? If you just ask them, to your point, you ask sheriffs across the country if they want to have that level of cooperation and coordination with the federal government, of course, they do. It makes their jobs easier, it keeps them out of hostile and dangerous environments, it allows them to detain illegal alien criminals who have committed heinous crimes in our country with, with, the most safe circumstances possible. So the president, of course, continues to always stand on the side of law enforcement, and this is another, just horrible and frankly political action taken by Governor Wes Moore, and unfortunately, the people of his state are going to reap the consequences of it.

Of course, it’s a political action, one taken due to the governor suffering from a nasty case of Stage V Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Biden Judge Holds DOJ Lawyer in Civil Contempt Over Immigration Case, Fines Him $500 Per Day

A Minnesota-based federal judge on Wednesday held a Justice Department attorney in civil contempt over an immigration case and fined him $500 per day for violating her order.

US District Judge Laura Provinzino, a Biden appointee, said the DOJ lawyer violated her orders in a habeas case related to the release of an ICE detainee’s papers.

DOJ lawyers in Minnesota are buried in immigration cases as leftist organizations fight to keep illegal aliens from being deported.

A JAG lawyer from the Department of War is assisting in immigration cases in the US Attorney’s Office due to case overload.

The judge held him in contempt after one of the habeas cases ‘fell through the cracks.’

According to Fox 9: Judge Provinzino had ordered a detained immigrant held by ICE in El Paso, Texas, be released in Minnesota with all of his identification papers. ICE released the man in Texas with none of his papers, forcing his attorney to find him a shelter for the night and flight back to Minnesota.

Trump Admin Closes CDL Loophole That Let Illegal Immigrants Drive Big-Rigs

The Department of Transportation shut down a major safety vulnerability this past week that had allowed illegal immigrant drivers to operate commercial trucks on American highways despite having no verifiable driving history.

“For far too long, America has allowed dangerous foreign drivers to abuse our truck licensing systems – wreaking havoc on our roadways. This safety loophole ends today,” Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy said in a statement.

“Moving forward, unqualified foreign drivers will be unable to get a license to operate an 80,000-pound big rig. Under President Trump’s leadership, we are putting the safety of the driving public first. From enforcing English language standards to holding fraudulent carriers accountable, we will continue to attack this crisis on our roads head on.”

The reform targets a gaping hole in how states issue commercial driver’s licenses to foreign nationals. While licensing agencies can screen U.S. drivers through national databases for past violations like DUIs or crash history, they cannot access records of foreigners and illegal immigrants. That loophole enabled at least 30 states to issue CDLs to drivers deemed ineligible.

Muckraker Goes Undercover in NYC: Board of Elections Worker Caught on Hidden Camera Admitting Non-Citizens REGISTER TO VOTE — “We Accept Anything That Comes Over the Counter” and “That’s Not My Job to Report Anyone”

Conservative investigative journalist Muckraker just dropped a bombshell undercover video that should terrify every American concerned about election integrity.

Posing as a Canadian green card holder (a non-citizen), Muckraker walked into the New York City Board of Elections office at 200 Varick St #10 and was told, on camera, that the office routinely accepts voter registration applications from non-citizens, will process them, and will not report the illegal attempt.

Muckraker posted the explosive footage on X:

“CAUGHT ON HIDDEN CAMERA: We went undercover at NYC Board of Elections posing as a non-citizen. The Board of Elections worker we spoke to admitted non-citizens register to vote and said he’d submit our (illegal) application and not report it.

‘Once in a while… we have people come in here… and they register, they weren’t a citizen…’

‘That’s not my job to report anyone.’

‘We accept anything that comes over the counter.’

How many non-citizens are registered to vote in the United States?”

The interaction is jaw-dropping.

Muckraker tells the worker outright: “I’m a green card holder from Canada.”

Instead of stopping the process or reporting it, the employee replies:

“No, no, no, no, we accept anything that comes over the counter.”

He then admits: “We have people coming here and they have legal situations, and they register, they weren’t a citizen. Boom, boom, boom.”

When asked how often it happens, the worker shrugs it off and later tells Muckraker:

“I can’t tell you what to do. If you want to fill it out, fill it out… but we accept anything that comes over the counter.”

And when directly asked if he would report the illegal registration attempt:

“No, no I’m not. No we don’t report anyone… That’s not my job to report anyone. My job is just to collect the application and put it and submit it to the Department.”
