ICE warns Gov. Hochul after illegal alien is arrested in upstate NY

Democratic-run states may be aiding and abetting illegal aliens under the current failed administration, but as President-elect Trump is ready to get back into the White House, immigration and border officials made it clear that they will be following orders from Trump, not from governors who want to destroy the country.

Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) criticized Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) while announcing the arrest of a wanted illegal immigrant in upstate New York. The Brazilian national had numerous charges against him in the U.S. and Brazil. 

“The men and women of ERO [Enforcement and Removal Operations] will continue to protect our communities from dangerous offenders, regardless of what the governor of New York state says,” Buffalo Field Office Director Thomas Brophy said in a statement. “We will not be deterred by politicians putting votes over protecting the citizens of this nation.”

Well said.

The illegal alien was wanted for strangulation and endangering the welfare of a child in the U.S. and is under investigation in Brazil for several crimes, including murder. The arrest of the scumcrumpet came within days of one another and had a final order of removal.

“These cases highlight the dangers of ‘sanctuary’ jurisdictions and state policies that obstruct law enforcement from cooperating with ERO,” Brophy said.

The question now is whether the Democrat governors will go along with ICE officials who will do their job in which Trump had promised mass deportation before he was elected. The ball is in their court: the governors can either help with the removal and deportations of illegal aliens, get out of the way, or make it difficult to carry out Trump's plans.

Although Hochul called Trump just days after he won the election to “reaffirm” their cooperation, we have yet to learn whether she will cooperate with the incoming administration's plans.

On the other hand, New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) spoke out of both sides of his mouth as he begged Trump to “fix the border” while also saying he does not support mass deportations. He will obviously say anything to stay in office.

Nearly 500,000 illegal immigrants are in New York City, with over 220,000 of them who have arrived in New York City since spring 2022.

Trump's pick for border czar, Tom Homan, is the former heado of Immigration and Customs Enforcement during Trump's first administration. Homan has promised to close the border and it's very probable that he will be successful, as he warned those who refuse to cooperate with the incoming administration that there will be consequences.
