The Obama administration took fire at a House hearing Thursday for releasing back into society thousands of illegal immigrants who had committed crimes on U.S. soil – including those behind more than 200 murders.
…
According to a new report from the Center for Immigration Studies, Immigration and Customs Enforcement in 2015 “freed 19,723 criminal aliens, who had a total of 64,197 convictions among them.”This included “8,234 violent convictions and 208 homicide convictions.”
And yet
[ICE Director Sarah] Saldana maintained she follows the law and the illegal immigrants who were released were freed only after “careful analysis.”
“I’m guessing the families here would disagree with your careful analysis,” [Senator Jason Chaffetz (R, UT)] said.
Saldana responded, “We are humans and we do fall short sometimes.”
And that makes everything all right for those murdered and for those surviving families. Typical Progressive morality. American citizens are just eggs for the omelet.
