From The White House:

President Donald J. Trump is removing illegal immigrant killers, rapists, and drug dealers from our streets and sending them back where they belong — but if politicians in so-called “sanctuary” locales had it their way, these vicious criminals would still be free to roam our streets.

Here is a tiny sample of the illegal immigrant criminals arrested in “sanctuary” destinations under President Trump:

  • In Saint Paul, Minnesota, ICE has arrested a Sudanese national convicted of rape of a victim under 13, a Mexican national convicted of criminal sexual conduct against a victim under 14, and a Laotian national convicted of child endangerment and criminal sexual conduct against a victim under 13.
    • Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison warns law enforcement of “liability if they enforce immigration detainers” and says protecting communities from violent illegal immigrant criminals is “not our job.”
    • Mayor Melvin Carter says targeting violent illegal immigrant criminals is “threaten[ing] our safe spaces” and calls it a “rapidly alarming situation.”
    • Saint Paul City Council Vice President Hwa Jeong Kim reminds constituents that the police department “cannot and does not cooperate with ICE.”
  • In Chicago, Illinois, ICE has arrested a Mexican national convicted of drunk driving resulting in a death (who had an order of removal from 2006), a Mexican national convicted of possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute (who had an order of removal from 2022), and a Mexican national convicted of negligent manslaughter.
    • Rep. Delia Ramirez decries how “welcoming states and sanctuary cities that defend our neighbors” are a “target.”
    • Rep. Chuy García says “no one should live in fear” of an “immigration raid.”
    • Rep. Mike Quigley advises illegal immigrants “to become familiar with their rights.”
  • In Washington State, ICE has arrested a Salvadoran national convicted of sodomy/anal intercourse with a victim under 13.
    • Washington Attorney General Nick Brown boasts that “state or local law enforcement” will not be utilized “for immigration enforcement actions.”
  • In Los Angeles, California, immigration authorities arrested a Mexican national convicted of rape (who had an order of removal from 1996).
    • Mayor Karen Bass says “no one should live in fear due to their immigration status.”
  • In New York City, New York, immigration authorities arrested a Chinese national convicted of murder.
