WATCH: New York Has RELEASED Nearly 7,000 Criminal Illegals with Active ICE Detainer Requests Back onto Street Since Trump Took Office – Lawless AG Letitia James Prosecuting Local Sheriffs for Working with ICE!

 

Rep. Claudia Tenney discusses New York Sanctuary State policies and the release of thousands of criminals with Fox’s Kayleigh McEnany

The state of New York has reportedly released nearly 7,000 illegal aliens from jail, including 29 individuals who were linked to homicide cases, in defiance of ICE detainer requests. 

Per the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), 6,947 illegals have been released, after committing 29 homicides, 2,509 assaults, 199 burglaries, 305 robberies, 392 dangerous drugs offenses, 300 weapons offenses, and 207 sexual predatory offenses.

Republican New York Congressman Claudia Tenney joined Fox’s Kayleigh McEnany on Saturday to discuss the new development.

She also revealed that Letitia James knows about this but “doesn’t care,” and she’s even trying to prosecute local sheriffs for cooperating with ICE. According to the New York Post, Attorney General Letitia James is snooping around and probing Oswego County Sheriff Don Hilton and the Nassau County Sheriff’s office for misconduct for cooperating with federal law enforcement.

WATCH:

McEnany: This is incomprehensible to me, people who immigration authorities want just let out in the streets of New York?

Tenney: Yeah, this is a sanctuary state, as you know, still is a sanctuary state run by the Democrats completely. Even the governor faces a veto proof majority in the legislature, and now we’re going to end up having, you know, a pro-sanctuary Mayor coming in the first of January. But yeah, there are 1000s, almost 7000 people with these advanced criminal records like, you know, murder, you said, homicide, rape, extortion, you name it, just about every crime— child, sex crimes that are led into our state every single year, at least this last year.

And this is all done, and Letitia James, our Attorney General, was alerted. She doesn’t care. She even goes after and is trying to prosecute any of the local governments who want to cooperate with what is called the 287(g) program. That program allows local police to coordinate with ICE if we have dangerous criminal aliens within the confines of a county or a city.

She is interfering with that. She’s actually prosecuting my home Sheriff for actually cooperating. And my district in upstate New York, New York 24, my entire northern border is the Canadian border, and we have had almost 90% of the people on the foreign terror watch list under Joe Biden were coming in across the northern border. So, it’s a very dangerous place and a very easy place for safe haven, especially with a sanctuary state like New York.
