White House defends ICE, says Dems, media want 'sick' criminal migrants left on streets
The White House blasted Democrats and the mainstream media for defending “sick” criminal illegal immigrants against ICE arrest, saying on Tuesday that if it were up to them, some of the worst criminals in the country would still be on the streets.
The White House released a statement on Tuesday highlighting some of the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens arrested by ICE just in the “past several days.”
Amid the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration and criminal aliens, the White House defended ICE for ramping up arrests of illegals, saying that “if Democrats and the legacy media had their way, these sick criminals would still be roaming free.”
“Brutal killers and rapists— all taken off our streets in just the past week thanks to the tireless work of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE),” the White House statement said.

This comes as Democrats across the country have attempted to resist the administration’s immigration crackdown, often impeding immigration authorities’ investigations into criminal illegal aliens.
Sanctuary city and state leaders have been at the forefront of the resistance against Trump with mayors such as Boston’s Michelle Wu suggesting the president is a bully and saying, “No one tells Boston how to take care of our own, not kings, and not presidents who think they are kings. Boston was born facing down bullies.”
Denver Mayor Mike Johnston predicted a “Tiananmen Square moment” of city officials and local citizens blocking federal immigration officials from deporting illegals.
“More than us having DPD stationed at the county line to keep them out, you would have 50,000 Denverites there,” Johnston said “It’s like the Tiananmen Square moment with the rose and the gun, right? You’d have every one of those Highland moms who came out for the migrants. And you do not want to mess with them.”
Many media outlets have brutally criticized the administration’s immigration crackdown as draconian, with CNN reporting earlier this month that the administration’s efforts have “raised concerns that authorities are flouting due process to ram deportations through.”
