Tucker Carlson explains that a memo sent to ICE agents telling them to “release them all” has been retracted a day and a half after it was issued, however ICE will cease essentially all deportations anyway starting on February 1.
Carlson speaks with former White House senior advisor Stephen Miller who explains the implications of Biden’s presidential directive. Miller says that it is the most extreme directive in the history of law enforcement.
Acting secretary Pekoske issued a memorandum the day of the inauguration putting into place a hundred day deportation moratorium, which will cease essentially all deportations from occurring except in rare cases such as terrorism or espionage. Miller explains that last year, 92% of the 180 thousand people who were deported were either charged or convicted of a crime, but such people would now not be deported. Starting on February 1, every sheriff’s office and police department that for years has been handing over illegal immigrants to ICE for deportation will now not be allowed to do so, and instead the migrants will be released back into the communities. Additionally, the memo forbids visa overstays from being deported.
Miller says, “As of January 20, Biden has declared ‘there is no more workplace immigration law.’ You as a U.S. citizen no not have the protection of your laws, your civil rights do not matter. … the whole system [is] dismantled.”
