A multi-tiered law enforcement system will always lead to disasterous consequences! This post describes it in detail.

 

Two-tiered justice: Local DAs shield noncitizens from immigration consequences

When a local prosecutor weighs immigration status when deciding charges and plea deals, two people who commit the same crime in your community could face very different consequences. A House report and a DOJ investigation now allege that's happening in jurisdictions from Northern Virginia to Colorado to Philadelphia.

District attorneys across the country are accused of providing illegal immigrants preferential treatment when they commit crimes, allowing them to remain free in the country and put U.S. citizens’ lives at risk. The related reports seem to indicate that when the arrested person is a U.S. citizen, they are denied much of the leniency shown to illegal immigrants accused of the same crime. 

The House Judiciary Committee and its Immigration Subcommittee released a report this week detailing how Arlington County, Virginia’s Commonwealth’s Attorney, Parisa Dehghani-Tafti, “obstructs the enforcement of federal immigration law and shields foreign national criminals from accountability.” Dehghani-Tafti's campaign received $515,000 from George Soros-affiliated political entities, Fox News reported last October.

Congressional committee says policy ensures that certain foreign nationals are never convicted of DWI

“Democrats' open-borders policies and sanctuary jurisdictions have had devastating consequences for U.S. citizens. Even after the American people resoundingly rejected Democrats' pro-illegal alien policies in November 2024, Democrats across the country reinforced sanctuary policies to ensure that the millions of illegal aliens who entered the U.S. are never removed from the country,” the Committee wrote in its announcement of the report.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) data contained within the report showed that sanctuary jurisdictions – cities that have vowed not to work with ICE – have declined at least 41,085 detainers between Oct. 2022 and early 2026.

The Judiciary Committee’s report included testimony from Dehghani-Tafti about her office’s policy to shift outcomes for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients charged with Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) to ensure they don’t lose their DACA status. “This policy ensures that certain foreign nationals are never convicted of DWI in Arlington County, [Virginia] solely due to their status as non-U.S. citizens,” the Committee wrote.

“Arlington County treats illegal aliens differently than similarly situated American citizens. Immigration-specific considerations, and the potential for a different prosecutorial outcome based on those immigration considerations, are not available to American citizens charged with similar crimes,” the Committee added.

Arlington County’s refusal to work with ICE also extends to cases involving felons and terrorists, the Committee found.

Lax treatment, tracking of illegal immigrants leads to deaths of American citizens

In neighboring Fairfax County, the situation is largely the same with Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano, who is under investigation by the Department of Justice (DOJ) for possible discrimination against American citizens. "This investigation will uncover whether this prosecutor is putting the community at risk in offering sweetheart deals to illegal immigrants charged with serious crimes," Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division said in May.

The investigation came several months after Stephanie Minter was murdered in Fairfax County, allegedly by Abdul Jalloh, an illegal immigrant with a criminal history who has had nearly every charge against him dropped by Descano’s office. For his part, Descano denied wrongdoing and told a local news outlet that "my policies are fair, legal, and reflect the values of my community."

Across the country in Boulder County, Colorado, District Attorney Michael Dougherty’s published policy states that prosecutors in his jurisdiction must consider collateral effects when it comes to illegal immigrants committing certain crimes. House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R.-Ohio, subpoenaed Dougherty last week regarding alleged preferential treatment to illegal immigrants. Jordan’s Committee had been trying to get records and information from Dougherty’s office for months, but the DA kept refusing.

In Denver, the Judiciary Committee sent a letter to DA John Walsh citing similar collateral consequences for illegal immigrants.

“Under your leadership, the Denver District Attorney’s Office undermines the rule of law under the guise of safeguarding the public. For years, in fact, your office has openly given preferential treatment to aliens based solely on their immigration status,” Jordan wrote to Walsh in May. “In 2019, your predecessor implemented a policy to consider a criminal defendant’s immigration status when making prosecution decisions. Noting that ‘[d]ifferent individuals charged with the same crime may face markedly different consequences depending upon various factors, including an individual’s immigration status,’ the former District Attorney directed the office to ‘take reasonable steps to mitigate [immigration] consequences” for criminal aliens.’”

In 2017, illegal immigrant Ever Valles shot and killed 32-year-old landscaper Timothy Cruz. Valles had previously been protected from an ICE detainer when he was released from prison without officials informing ICE, per sanctuary city policy. 

Jordan accused Walsh of continuing that policy and demanded documents and information relating to the DA office’s interactions with ICE and the prosecution of illegal immigrants.

Philadelphia’s DA Larry Krasner also uses the policy that “low-level and nonviolent crimes should not lead to deportation or necessarily risk one’s immigration status.” Jordan also subpoenaed his office in May.

DA caught boasting about "criminal aliens being released onto Philadelphia streets, free to reoffend" Jordan says

“In fact, you created an Immigration Counsel position within your office to evaluate cases involving non-U.S. citizens so that foreign nationals ‘can avoid unnecessary and unjust consequences’ — in other words, to shield criminal aliens from deportation,” Jordan wrote. “You also openly boast about how your policies have resulted in criminal aliens being released onto Philadelphia streets, free to reoffend. Even in cases involving murder or crimes against minors, a prosecutor in your office may still consider a criminal alien’s potential deportation or other immigration consequences in making prosecution decisions.”

In New York, Brooklyn DA Eric Gonzalez hired two immigration attorneys to advise prosecutors specifically on plea offers and sentencing for illegal immigrants, potentially reducing charges to avoid deportation.

In California, Los Angeles and Contra Costa County each have DAs that consider a person’s legal status when charging them for a crime. Former L.A. DA George Gascon was defeated in the 2024 election in part due to his lax policies toward criminals, including illegal immigrants. While he was DA of San Francisco in 2015, a five-time deported Mexican immigrant murdered 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle. The immigrant, Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, 45, was later acquitted of murder and involuntary manslaughter charges, as well as assault with a deadly weapon. Jurors convicted the Mexican citizen of being a felon in possession of a firearm, which could bring a three-year sentence.

 Multnomah County in Oregon's policy also states that consequences should be roughly equal for U.S. citizens and illegal immigrants, meaning deportation is to be avoided.

America the Confused

This nation is not a perpetually filled cookie jar.

 

 Michael Smith Contributor patriotpost.us 9-23-26

I don’t like what we have become.

And when I say “we,” I mean Americans in general.

I don’t want an America divided by class, no matter how “class” is defined. I’m not a racist, a xenophobe, a bigot, or a “Christo-fascist” (whatever that is). But every day, people throw those terms at me and people like me, thinking they have won the debate.

I’m for creating an environment where people can succeed and help others do the same. I am not for taking from some to give to others.

But people like me fight every day against people who are protected from the true result of the actions they propose because government insulates them from its own failures as it slowly gobbles up America.

Even the programs they say people love and need — like Social Security and Medicare (which are mandatory, by the way) — are failures and underperform compared to what the free market has delivered in similar situations. People will deny this and claim the free market is too expensive and volatile, but the expense and volatility come from government distorting its own rules by expanding programs far beyond their original goals to try to escape the basic laws of economics.

The people they support qualify as artificial intelligence simply because any evidence of intelligence is truly artificial. Bad people make for bad governance.

Listen, I’m not blind to President Donald Trump’s successes, nor am I ignorant of his failures and excesses. But I am thankful for his unconventional approach to governance. I think he has made some mistakes while pursuing the right objectives, winning some and losing some, but most of which are successful resets and long-term actions that get lost in the leftist propaganda mill that runs 24/7/365.

The media will do anything and everything to minimize the positives and amplify the negatives.

Democrats and their allies in the media want you to think only about the short term — the next election — even as they openly promise to make the long term as painful as possible if they are returned to power and call that “progress.”

We need someone willing to burn the bad system down, and if he settles some scores in the process, all the better. It’s not like they haven’t tried to ruin him and his family, put him in jail, bankrupt his businesses, or even kill him.

I’m betting I’m not the only one thinking so.

If you don’t support the president, you must ask yourself what the alternative could be.

It sure as hell isn’t the old GOP or the libertarians who seem to find ways to make common cause with the Democrats and the Left. These are people who can’t stand that they can’t just keep the lovable loser lifestyle going and let the Democrats give them a few meaningless wins, but keep the money flowing.

The GOP allowed the government to violate the Constitution, thanks to about a century and a half of stretching it to fit every desire either political party thinks will result in durable power for their team.

And don’t be fooled: the Constitution has been disrespected and bent so far that a socialist state is entirely possible. They are already talking about kicking out the last stops. Once the Left openly and confidently talks about confiscating wealth — of any wealth level — the bit is out of the horse’s mouth. Given that most programs and policies are only missing the government taking control of the means of production, it is a short trip to a truly oppressive, authoritarian state.

And the Left has already sanctioned political violence, including murder.

Trump, at his worst, is no worse than the old baseline set by the establishment GOP, which was controlled by a bunch of neocon globalists. That baseline is still a long way from where the hammer-and-sickle Democrats are today.

His best represents a brand of politics and governance that wins and wins for all Americans, whether they like it or not.

We have just a few weeks before going to the polls.

Some people are hell-bent on selling their freedom (and yours) for promises that history has proven time and time again cannot be kept.

There is no such thing as a free lunch, and there are no complete solutions, only trade-offs — yet many voters see America as a perpetual cookie jar that other people keep filled.

That kind of thinking never ends well.

 

Mult-culturalism is a 'death sentence'. Our once great Republic is commiting suicide! Wake up America!

 

Immigration without assimilation: Death knell for the West

The majority of today's immigrants, particularly the illegals, appear to loathe everything about the United States except its money.

Eric Utter | September 22, 2026 www.americanthinker.com

The majority of today's immigrants, particularly the illegals, appear to loathe everything about the United States except its wealth.

Far too many of them are effectively saying, “We detest capitalism, your system of government, your Christian faith, Judeo-Christian values, and your culture, all of which we are zealously trying to change. But do continue to pay us and put us up so that we can live comfortably without needing to work.”

Also, “We much prefer the brutality, stonings, misogyny, pedophilia, arranged marriages, and gang rape of young women (and perhaps occasionally a goat or two) to what we have found here. Which is why we are going to eventually force you to dispense with Christianity, dogs, pork, alcohol, and popular music, all of which are sinful, evil, bad news. Not Halal!”

Who the hell would go along with that? 

What kind of sad-sack civilization would tolerate this?

The answers to those questions are: far too damn many of us, as driven by the communists, the karens, the AWFULs, and assorted other indoctrinated and mentally ill folks.

These allegedly “tolerant” and “welcoming” clowns should try going to Somalia, Afghanistan, Iran, or any of dozens of other Muslim nations, attempt to get them to change their “religion,” customs, and culture ... and see how that goes. They could unfurl their “Gays for Gaza” banners and feel the love.

The overwhelmingly vast majority of previous (and legal) immigrants, be they English, Norwegian, Irish, German, et al., desperately wanted to assimilate with America … and become Americans. They were not looking for a handout, only a chance to succeed with hard work and a clean nose.

Conversely, 81% of Somalis in Minnesota (a.k.a., New Somalia) are on the government dole. Others are involved in almost ubiquitous lucrative fraud schemes.

This is not possible in Somalia — or many such Muslim nations — because only cspitalism and free markets, combined with a Judeo-Christian work ethic, can generate that kind of wealth.

Yet, we find ourselves in the midst of allowing a tyrannical political ideology cloaked in religious garb to “fundamentally transform” our country.

Preposterous but true.

So we see Mexican flags, Somali flags (even apart from the new state flag of Minnesota), and Palestinian flags, among others, in our streets and on our campuses.

“Free Palestine!” They might try freeing their minds, instead.

The Quran famously requires Muslims to convert, enslave, or dispatch with “infidels” like us.

I have a counter-suggestion for them: gratefully assimilate, seek legitimate employment, or get the hell out of the country.

Man arrested for speeding turns out to be illegal immigrant wanted for 2016 murders

Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents later determined Zeron was wanted in Honduras for his involvement in a 2016 shooting massacre at a billiard hall.

Ersi Zeron, an illegal immigrant from Honduras with suspected gang affiliation, was arrested for speeding and driving without a license. 

Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents later determined Zeron was wanted in Honduras for his involvement in a 2016 shooting massacre at a billiard hall. 

Zeron entered the U.S. at the Calexico West Port of Entry in September 2022 and was released into the country by the Biden administration. 

The arrest was part of the agency's 287(g) program, which authorizes U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to delegate state and local law enforcement officers the authority to perform specified immigration officer functions under ICE’s direction and oversight.
