Public safety is a top priority, and it's essential for mayors and governors to protect their communities. If local leaders cooperate, they can help address public safety threats effectively. There are clear legal boundaries that must not be crossed, particularly regarding federal law enforcement and harboring illegal immigrants. It's crucial for local officials to understand these laws and ensure they do not violate them.

Chicago leaders are urging residents to resist Trump's deportation policies. New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy acknowledged he was hiding someone without full documentation above his garage. The government’s response to this could lead to prosecution for knowingly harboring an illegal alien, as it violates U.S. law. The Trump administration plans to sue sanctuary cities, claiming they protect criminals. An example cited is a case in New York City where a failure to share information led to the death of a child. Sanctuary cities are blamed for numerous deaths, and the administration is prepared to take this issue to the Supreme Court to end their protections. A 2011 study indicated there were 3 million criminal aliens in the U.S.

The Trump administration is deporting more violent criminal migrants to El Salvador, including alleged Trindaragua members and gang leaders, some implicated in sexual abuse and murder. Despite judicial disagreement, ICE will continue arresting and removing MS-13 and Trindaragua members under title eight. To expedite deportations, expedited removals and voluntary returns are being considered, and more immigration judges are needed to prioritize violent offenders. Those detained get hearings faster, so ICE should detain more "bad guys." The administration ended TPS, which an activist judge opposed, claiming baseless stereotypes and racism. The administration maintains TPS is temporary and should end when conditions in the home country improve. Rochester police officers who assisted ICE faced scrutiny, but their union defended their actions as standard procedure for officer assistance calls. ICE leadership met with the police chief, and despite the mayor's sanctuary city policies, ICE will continue responding to emergency calls.

President Trump has directed us to stop states from non-compliance with federal law. We've already addressed Illinois and New York. If your state isn't complying, you're next. New York's green light laws prevent law enforcement from checking the identities of illegal aliens during stops, blocking access to their backgrounds. This endangers law enforcement officers who face risks daily from violent criminals, gang members, drug traffickers, and human smugglers. We're here to ensure these individuals no longer terrorize Americans. If you don't follow federal law, you will be held accountable. It's over, and we're coming after you.

I'm not going back to Haiti. ICE has arrested several illegal aliens, including a gang member from Haiti with multiple convictions, and others from Brazil, El Salvador, the Dominican Republic, and Guatemala. Many were released by sanctuary jurisdictions despite ICE detainer requests. ICE emphasizes that they will continue to operate in these areas to ensure public safety. Recently, they arrested a Honduran illegal alien for rape and a Haitian man who entered the U.S. under a controversial program and was later arrested for sexual assault. Although Boston is a sanctuary city, ICE asserts they will enforce immigration laws regardless of local policies. They stress that cooperation from local jurisdictions would make their job safer and more efficient.

Good morning. In Boston, ICE officers are targeting violent offenders. They quickly apprehend an MS-13 gang member wanted for murder in El Salvador, along with other illegal aliens from Haiti, Brazil, and the Dominican Republic, all with serious criminal backgrounds. Many were released due to sanctuary policies. Officers emphasize that they will continue to operate in sanctuary jurisdictions to ensure public safety. Shortly after filming, they arrested two more individuals, including a previously deported Honduran for rape and a Haitian man arrested for sexual assault. Despite sanctuary city policies, ICE asserts they will continue their enforcement efforts, gathering intelligence to locate and detain individuals who pose threats to the community.

Cities ignore federal law on reporting illegal immigrants because there is no federal funding for enforcement. A city near Speaker 1's state tried similar sanctions, but it led to negative consequences like store closures. The problem lies in the lack of federal government enforcement and funding. The current administration has failed to provide the necessary resources to enforce existing laws. When asked if he would allow cities to ignore federal law, Biden responds with a clear "no."

You've protected Texas and the nation. Unfortunately, some governors and mayors oppose our efforts, especially regarding interior enforcement. We face a mass deportation situation following a surge in illegal immigration, where many claim asylum but ultimately receive removal orders. We must enforce these orders; otherwise, immigration courts become ineffective. Allowing individuals to stay sends the wrong message and undermines our laws. ICE will face challenges, but we will not tolerate those who obstruct our operations. It's time to address illegal alien crime and prioritize public safety. President Trump is dedicated to securing the border and focusing on national security threats. Mayors and governors must collaborate with us to remove these threats from communities, as the situation at the southern border has created significant vulnerabilities.

The speaker argues that the federal government should address remittances sent by illegal workers, stating that stopping those remittances would be a huge disincentive for people to come and remain illegally. They advocate using federal tools to influence immigration behavior and enforcement. They also address sanctuary cities, noting that Congress can defund them. The speaker mentions that Republicans in the House had voted to continue funding sanctuary cities, and questions why that would be the case. They urge defunding sanctuary cities, implying that using available tools to create an environment that promotes the rule of law is important.

I'm not going back to Haiti. ICE has arrested several illegal aliens, including a gang member from Haiti with 17 criminal convictions, and others from Brazil, El Salvador, the Dominican Republic, and Guatemala. Many were released by sanctuary jurisdictions, which did not honor detainer requests. ICE continues to operate in these areas, stating they will find and remove individuals regardless of local policies. Recently, they arrested a Honduran for rape and a Haitian who entered the U.S. through a controversial program and was later arrested for sexual assault. While sanctuary cities may not cooperate, ICE asserts they will still enforce the law and remove individuals deemed public safety threats.

I'm not going back to Haiti. ICE has arrested several illegal aliens, including a gang member from Haiti with 17 convictions, a Brazilian with an INTERPOL red notice, and others charged with serious crimes. Many were released due to sanctuary policies. When targeting one individual, ICE also apprehended another illegal alien present with him. ICE plans to continue operations in sanctuary jurisdictions despite local policies. They aim to expedite deportations, especially for those from cooperative countries. While Boston is a sanctuary city, ICE can still enforce the law. Local jurisdictions may complicate their work, but ICE remains committed to removing individuals who pose public safety threats.

Today’s operation in Chicago, led by multiple federal agencies, focused on public safety and national security. We successfully apprehended serious offenders, including sex offenders and gang members, removing significant threats from the streets. This operation was meticulously planned, targeting individuals with criminal and immigration histories. In Aurora, there was a major bust involving illegal immigrants, guns, and drugs. Unfortunately, local policies hinder our ability to access jails, making it difficult to apprehend dangerous individuals directly. We need cooperation to ensure public safety; sanctuary city policies only protect criminals, not communities. Law enforcement should collaborate to keep everyone safe, including immigrant communities.

I’m not going back to Haiti. ICE has arrested several illegal aliens, including a Haitian gang member with 17 convictions, a Brazilian with an INTERPOL red notice for armed robbery, and others charged with serious crimes. Many were released by sanctuary jurisdictions, which ignored ICE detainer requests. When ICE targeted one individual, they also arrested another illegal alien found with him. ICE plans to continue operations in sanctuary areas, emphasizing that they will find and deport those released back into the community. Recent arrests included a Honduran for rape and a Haitian arrested for sexual assault after entering the U.S. through a controversial program. Although sanctuary cities don’t have to cooperate with ICE, the agency will enforce the law regardless.

We appreciate the technical support and work authorization from the federal government. Without significant investment, not just Chicago but the entire country will struggle to maintain this mission. However, the state of Texas is not helping the cause. While we acknowledge the challenges at the border and the need for immigration reform and a pathway to citizenship, sending buses all over Illinois and the country is reckless and dangerous.

AOC is doing webinars to help illegals avoid apprehension and remain in the country by gaming the system. I've contacted the Deputy Attorney General to determine if this impedes law enforcement efforts and whether she's crossing a line. The DOJ will advise if further action is needed, including impeachment. If necessary, we'll defund sanctuary cities because public and community safety is the priority. Releasing criminals endangers the public, law enforcement, and even the individuals themselves. If sanctuary cities won't act to make their communities safer, President Trump will. Blue cities across America, get ready.

The subcommittee is addressing efforts to nullify federal immigration laws by "sanctuary cities," which allegedly harbor violent criminals who prey on citizens and immigrant communities. Over the last four years, Democrats purportedly trafficked over 8 million unvetted and illegal migrants, including dangerous criminals and cartels, into the country, ignoring warnings from law enforcement. The speaker claims that President Trump enforced immigration laws, leading to a 96% plunge in illegal crossings and a 99% drop in migrants crossing the Darien Gap. ICE has supposedly arrested over 100,000 illegal migrants, most with criminal records. The speaker calls for the "largest mass repatriation in history." Democrats are accused of obstructing immigration law enforcement, with examples given such as Adam County, Washington, Chicago, and Denver suburbs. Gavin Newsom is said to have approved $50 million for legal defenses against the Trump administration. San Francisco is allegedly leading a lawsuit against the Trump administration to prevent withholding federal funds from sanctuary jurisdictions. President Trump directed law enforcement to ensure sanctuary jurisdictions do not receive federal funds and sued jurisdictions like Illinois and New York. The speaker urges Congress to enact stronger laws to prevent future administrations from reversing these policies.

The president signed an executive order this week threatening to defund sanctuary cities. The speaker questions why the leaders of these cities, who are allegedly harboring and shielding illegal aliens and terrorists from deportation, are not arrested instead.

Tom Homan and the host discuss ICE detention capacity and trafficking concerns, along with political rhetoric and safety in sanctuary cities. - Kevin Cork highlights the administration’s efforts to curtail trafficking across the border, noting it as a major issue for young women and children who are trafficked. He references reporting that there are around 66,000 ICE detainees, a 70% increase since the president took office, and mentions ICE considering large warehouses to hold more detainees. He asks for insight into whether capacity is a real issue and how it’s being managed. - Tom Homan updates ICE detention figures at the time of the conversation, stating about 65,000 detainees, and says a surge to 100,000 beds is coming soon. He explains that the plan is to have 100,000 beds because an average bed turns over 10 times a year, with an average stay of 30 to 35 days. Therefore, 100,000 beds could effectively handle about a million bed-overnights annually. He emphasizes the need for a bed for every person arrested to coordinate travel documents and removal itineraries, and asserts the administration’s goal of bringing 100,000 beds online along with 10,000 new agents. He notes there have been historic deportation numbers under President Trump and suggests those numbers will compare to the next year. - Nicole Sapphire transitions to the New York City mayoral race and cites mayor-elect Zoran Mandani’s threats toward ICE. The discussion returns to safety for ICE personnel, with Sapphire asking what is being done to protect agents and whether current laws deter violence or if Congress must do more. - Tom Homan responds by pointing to the actions of Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice, highlighting prosecutions under 18 U.S.C. 111 (impeding and injuring federal law enforcement officers) as at historic levels and continuing. He criticizes sanctuary cities like Chicago and New York for releasing perceived public safety threats back into communities, and asserts that the administration will flood sanctuary zones with more agents, planning to hire 10,000 more officers to operate in those cities. He says they will arrest thousands of people in Chicago weekly, with operations tonight and tomorrow, and asserts a commitment to make New York safer with or without cooperation from local leadership. He references the President’s promise to make neighborhoods safer by removing criminal aliens, including in Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York, and urges people to thank President Trump for making neighborhoods safer. - The program closes with gratitude to Tom Homan and acknowledgment of his ongoing work.

I'm proud to be part of this effort. We've taken significant action against sanctuary cities, halting federal funding and filing lawsuits against Chicago and Illinois for their policies. Sanctuary cities prioritize illegal aliens over the safety of their citizens and law enforcement. We are holding city and state leaders accountable, including the mayor and governor. If they don't comply with federal law, they will face consequences. What about those who tipped off the trend day, Arawak?

Speaker 0 raises the question of whether cities should be allowed to ignore federal law regarding reporting of illegal immigrants and effectively provide sanctuary to immigrants. Speaker 1 responds by explaining that cities ignore federal law because there is no funding at the federal level to support the kind of enforcement required. He references the New York Times, noting that a city near his state implemented similar sanctions and subsequently experienced adverse effects—“their city went in the dumpster,” with stores closing and other consequences—leading to a policy reversal. He argues that the underlying issue is the need for a federal government capable of enforcing laws and asserts that the administration has been fundamentally derelict in not funding the requirements needed to enforce the existing laws. Speaker 0 follows up with a direct question to Senator Biden: yes or no—“Would you allow the cities to ignore the federal law?” Speaker 1 answers: No. Speaker 0 closes with a brief, informal remark: “You okay.”

A significant deportation campaign has revealed the moral decline of the Democrat Party, which opposes actions against illegal immigrants. Under President Trump, over 500 violent criminal immigrants were removed in just 36 hours, despite local officials knowing their identities and crimes. The Democrats' refusal to detain these individuals, including sex traffickers and drug smugglers, prioritizes their feelings over public safety. Any sanctuary jurisdictions that obstruct deportation orders should face defunding and potential prosecution. Trump is also mobilizing military resources to assist in deportations and has halted Department of Justice consent decrees that restrict local police from effectively combating crime.

A Democratic primary winner, Zorraine Mamdani, vowed to kick the "fascist ice" out of New York City. In response, Speaker 1 stated that federal law trumps Mamdani's plans. Because New York City is a sanctuary city, ICE will double and triple down their efforts there. Speaker 1 claims that sanctuary cities release public safety and national security threats back to the street. Since they can't arrest individuals in county jails, they will send teams to find them, along with others who have been arrested. Worksite enforcement will increase tenfold. Speaker 1 stated that if they can't arrest individuals in jail or find them in neighborhoods, they will find them at worksites.

Chicago leaders are urging residents to resist Trump's deportation policies. New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy acknowledged he sheltered someone without full documentation. In response, there are concerns about potential legal consequences for harboring undocumented individuals, as it may violate U.S. law. The Trump administration plans to pursue legal action against sanctuary cities, which are criticized for protecting criminals. An example is given of a case in New York City where a suspect, if handed over, could have prevented a tragic death. The administration aims to challenge sanctuary cities, even if it reaches the Supreme Court.
