On Friday’s Money, Power, and Politics on MS NOW, fill-in host Ali Vitali fretted that President Donald Trump is “otherizing” illegal alien truck drivers while replacing them with veterans, but did not mention the problem of many such illegal aliens causing car crash deaths.

In contrast with Fox News, which has given substantial coverage to the issue of illegal aliens who are unable to pass driving tests being given commercial drivers licenses in blue states, and then going on to cause deadly car crashes, MS NOW has a history of barely mentioning such truckers.

Damian Paletta, the anti-Trump Washington Bureau Chief at The Wall Street Journal, told Vitali the Trump administration is trying to “do as much as they can to get their immigration agenda through” before the midterms, because if Democrats take over one house of Congress or both, “there might be huge roadblocks in the next year.”

The Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) now-former data chief announced Saturday that he was “thrilled to end my relationship with the current administration.”

Marc Rosenblum, the former executive director of the Office of Homeland Security Statistics, announced his departure from his office in a LinkedIn post, after having worked for the department since 2016. (RELATED: DHS Reportedly Spent Congressional Funds Meant To Counter China On America250, FIFA World Cup)

“It’s been an honor to serve the public by improving DHS data quality and supporting evidence-based policymaking,” Rosenblum said. “I’m sad to suspend my career in public service and leave my amazing team.”

Rosenblum, however, seemed anything but sad to be leaving this particular administration.

“Between the war on immigrants, the war on feds, and the war on facts (not to mention the crazy war in Iran and the brazen corruption), I just need a change,” Rosenblum wrote.

According to its official website, the office’s mission is to “publish timely and authoritative immigration and homeland security statistics” on topics ranging from immigration and emergency management to cybersecurity and infrastructure protection.

DHS declined to say whether Rosenblum had been fired or chose to resign when reached for comment by the Daily Caller.

“People are always welcome to their opinion — that doesn’t make it right or factual,” a DHS spokesperson told the Daily Caller. “We will not comment on personal decisions.”

The new rule “will shorten the total time that it takes asylum officers and Immigration Judges to adjudicate asylum applications.”

The Trump administration has announced a rule change that is set to fast-track the backlog in the asylum system, which will allow U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to refer certain applications directly to immigration judges instead of having to go through the interview process with asylum applicants.

The USCIS on Monday said that currently “both USCIS and Department of Justice (DOJ) Immigration Judges adjudicate applications for asylum: USCIS adjudicates ‘affirmative’ asylum applications for aliens who are not in removal proceedings, while Immigration Judges adjudicate ‘defensive’ asylum applications for aliens who are in removal proceedings. Depending on the alien’s immigration status, USCIS will usually either adjudicate the application or refer it to an Immigration Judge, who will then conduct a new review of the application. This essentially allows an alien to get a second chance at asylum.”

A Federal District Court has ruled that the state of Illinois cannot offer in-state college tuition benefits to illegal aliens. Federal law explicitly prohibits states from providing college aid to illegal aliens. The ruling struck down a law passed by the Illinois legislature and signed into law by Progressive Governor J.B.

In a rebuke to Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, a federal district court has struck down Illinois laws providing in-state tuition benefits to illegal aliens—a setback to the sanctuary-state governor’s broader immigration agenda.

The ruling also marks the latest win in the Trump administration’s campaign to end taxpayer-funded tuition benefits for illegal aliens, a fight Legal Insurrection has covered from the beginning.

Illinois’ laws allowed illegal aliens to qualify for reduced in-state tuition rates and for other benefits, including scholarships. Meanwhile, American citizens from other states were not offered these same reduced tuition rates or benefits.

The Trump administration announced efforts to root out U.S. citizenship naturalization fraud. The White House intends on conducting the “largest denaturalization effort ever.” The White House posted on X, “When you commit fraud during the naturalization process, you forfeit the right to keep your U.S. citizenship…”

The strategy is to use fraudulent information or incomplete information that was used in the immigration process to secure legal status as grounds for deportation….

From the Justice Department: The Department of Justice announced today that it filed denaturalization actions in various U.S. district courts against 10 individuals accused of serious offenses—including sexual abuse of a child, health care and wire fraud, immigration fraud, and conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute cocaine. The complaints were filed over the last 30 days. Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, a naturalized U.S. citizen’s citizenship may be revoked, and certificate of naturalization canceled, if the naturalization was illegally procured or procured by concealment of a material fact or by willful misrepresentation (Justice).

Haitians Are Self-Deporting At Extreme Rates www.louderwithcrowder.com

Can anyone name one positive benefit for Americans since the tens of thousands of Haitians moved to Springfield, Ohio? No? I didn’t think so. This is why there should be nothing but celebrations over reports of 80% of them self-deporting, as this can only bring good things to the country.

Per Spectrum News:

Haitian families are leaving Ohio over the uncertainty surrounding their immigration status.

A U.S. The Supreme Court decision last month allows the Trump administration to end their Temporary Protected Status (TPS).

While it is great that SCOTUS sided on the “right side of history,” the amount of damage caused by this should not be taken lightly. Officials, both local and all the way to federal, turned a blind eye and slapped Springfield residents in the face, solely because they deemed a group of foreign nationals less fortunate. You cannot return after betrayal like this, and it is astonishing how the media is painting this as if the deportations are a bad thing for Americans.

In one of Ohio’s largest populations of Haitian immigrants in Springfield, community leaders are concerned about another challenge that could create — more vacant homes.

Houses boarded up and abandoned are a reminder of a problem Springfield has spent years trying to fix. But with uncertainty around immigration status and Haitian families moving out because of it, city leaders worry the city could face another wave of empty houses.

The Trump administration on Monday announced sweeping new banking rules aimed at cracking down on lending to illegal immigrants, requiring lenders to consider that borrowers without legal work authorization may pose “elevated credit risk,” a move that supporters say could improve housing affordability for Americans.

The rules require banks and credit unions to account for the possibility that an illegal immigrant borrower could lose his job, be unable to find lawful work, or be removed from the country before repaying a mortgage, auto loan, credit-card balance, or other debt.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and the National Credit Union Administration issued the joint guidance under President Donald Trump’s May executive order, “Restoring Integrity to America’s Financial System.”

The four Minnesota officials who voted to pardon Tou Lue Vang, an illegal alien from Laos convicted of child rape, cited “immigration concerns” and rehabilitation as reasons for their decision, according to documents from the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission reviewed by Fox News.

The vote was 4-2 to recommend the pardon. The Minnesota Board of Pardons, made up of Gov. Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Minnesota Supreme Court Chief Justice Natalie Hudson, granted Vang a full pardon, giving him a clean slate.

On Friday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that the U.S. deported Vang, despite receiving a pardon from those officials.

Brett Shumate, who serves as the assistant attorney general for the Department of Justice (DOJ) Civil Division, celebrated the court win on Thursday, July 9. This is a victory not only for the Trump administration, which is trying to enforce laws at the state level against law-breaking foreigners, but also for American taxpayers, who perforce contribute to public universities that then give special deals to illegal aliens. Meanwhile, many Americans can’t afford to attend college.

When Lorenzo Salgado Araujo arrived at a Houston hospital after being shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Tuesday, he was admitted as a John Doe.

The federal agents may not have known his name when they set out to the predominantly Latino East End neighborhood to apprehend immigrants that day, but they were extremely aware of who Salgado was as they stripped him of any form of identification and his belongings after shooting him. That move kept his family from claiming his body, according to news reports.

“That is Soviet gestapo tactics when you want to hide a crime or victim,” Juan Proaño, chief executive of the League of United Latin American Citizens, said in a conversation with Daily Kos. The organization is supporting the Salgado family in their quest for answers.

In what appears to be a move to save an illegal alien from deportation, Tim Walz has pardoned an illegal alien convicted of raping a child. He was joined on a three-member pane by Democrats Keith Ellison and Natalie Hudson. Ellison is Minnesota’s Attorney General. Hudson is the state’s Chief Justice.

The partisan nature of the Elitist Media’s news coverage even trickles down to how pardons are covered. Any pardon issued by President Donald Trump will immediately raise the media’s hackles and draw significant coverage. Controversial pardons by Democrats? Not so much.

Per The New York Post:

Minnesota officials, including Democrat Gov. Tim Walz, last month pardoned an illegal immigrant who was previously convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl and who was slated to be deported.

With the recommendation of the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission (CRC), the Minnesota Board of Pardons — led by Walz, state Attorney General Keith Ellison and state Chief Justice Natalie Hudson — granted a pardon for Laos national Tou Lue Vang, 42, at its June 10 meeting, according to a letter informing Vang of the decision from Carli Stark, the executive director of the state CRC.

The pardon essentially gives Vang a clean slate.

“Being granted a pardon is a notable achievement and a reflection of the work you have done since your conviction,” Stark wrote in her letter to Vang.

Federal immigration enforcement data and reporting indicate a notable increase in arrests by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in recent days.

According to a report from the New York Times, ICE detained more than 10,000 individuals over the last five days of June. This figure reflects a doubling of the daily arrest rate to approximately 2,000 arrests per day, compared to roughly 1,000 per day earlier in the year.

Arrests reached a peak of more than 2,400 on one Saturday during this period, according to documents reviewed by the outlet.

Haitians and Syrians with Temporary Protection Status had been prevented from being deported by a lower Federal court ruling. That ruling was overturned by SCOTUS in a 6-3 decision. Justice Samuel Alito wrote in the decision, “The TPS statute plainly bars consideration of respondents’ nonconstitutional claims.”

Felix Jeronimo-Rojas is a criminal illegal alien from Mexico who entered our nation illegally five times. If that wasn’t bad enough, Jeronimo-Rojas was recently sentenced to five years in prison for a heinous act on New York City’s subway system. He pleaded guilty to all charges.

Jeronimo-Rojas was arrested after he raped and robbed the body of a man who died on the subway system. Now the state of New York is possibly going ot release this monster from jail.

Here’s more:

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) blasted New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani over “sanctuary” policies, demanding the two honor an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainer for an illegal migrant convicted of raping a corpse.

Felix Jeronimo-Rojas, 44, was sentenced to five years in prison on Wednesday for sexually assaulting and raiding the pockets of 37-year-old Jorge Gonzalez while he sat dead on the R train near Lower Manhattan’s Whitehall Street station, according to the New York Post.

The Mexican national pled guilty to the charges.

“This sicko robbed and raped the corpse of a dead man on a New York City subway,” said Lauren Bis, acting assistant secretary for public affairs at the DHS. “ICE lodged a detainer asking Gov. Kathy Hochul and New York sanctuary politicians to commit to not releasing this criminal illegal alien after his prison sentence. We need cooperation from sanctuary politicians to ensure depraved criminals like this are not released into our communities.”

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt highlighted the milestone in a post that included an article with more details from Fox News.

If the feds were able to arrest over 10,000 suspected gang members in just about a year and a half, how many tens of thousands of gang members are operating in the United States altogether? This is the horrible reality of the open borders crisis. Politicians who welcome illegal aliens are deliberately ignoring the fact that an unknown number of violent criminals are always mixed in.

The U.S. Supreme Court upheld President Donald Trump’s efforts to revoke temporary status for foreign nationals in the United States on Thursday. The decision was 6-3, with Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson in the dissent.

The ruling in the consolidated cases Mullin v. Doe and Trump v. Miot dates back to Trump’s bid to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) from large swaths of Syrian and Haitian nationals residing in America under the program. As The Federalist previously reported, the challengers contesting the president’s decision argued that the statutory provisions governing TPS “do not bar courts from reviewing an administration’s actions on the program and that the government is required to undertake certain steps (ex. consultation and assessment of a country’s conditions) before implementing such policies.”

“This course of events- in and of itself-establishes beyond reasonable dispute that the subpoenas were a part of a broader campaign to coerce state and local officials in Minnesota to assist the Trump administration in its enforcement of immigration laws,” wrote Schiltz. “And, of course, this campaign played out against the backdrop of the Trump administration’s well-established history of using criminal investigations to retaliate against and pressure the President’s political and personal adversaries.”

When a Supreme Court ruling causes the mainstream media and Democrat politicians to dissolve into tears of fury, you know the decision was much more in favor of We the People and the Constitution than of woke judicial activism. And with two major immigration decisions going for the Department of Homeland Security on Thursday, lefty media stooges are, of course, roaring like a Shakespearean tempest.

To clarify a few facts first, the majority opinion in Mullin v. Doe (which is causing particular fury) was in favor of acknowledging that Temporary Protected Status (TPS) should be just that — temporary. The Supreme Court also rejected the claim that the Trump administration was targeting certain racial groups or that hundreds of thousands of Haitians should receive TPS 16 years after the earthquake that triggered the designation. Syrians, likewise, face a concerning but different situation back home now than they did in 2012 when their TPS started. None of those facts is influencing the MSM and Democrat meltdown.

House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark Amodei (R-NV) intervened on behalf of Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) during a particularly heated segment of a hearing with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin.

Order at the committee broke down when DeLauro, the ranking member of the full House Appropriations Committee, began criticizing Mullin’s Department of Homeland Security over the separation of illegal immigrant children from their families. Mullin began defending himself while DeLauro was still speaking, triggering a yelling match.

Mullin first interrupted when DeLauro was condemning the loss of immigrant children under DHS care, contrasting it to dry cleaning when a tag gets you your clothes back, to which the homeland security secretary countered, “I wish the Biden administration would have done that.”

“Let me just say this to you, sir — again, it is my time — 3,900 children were separated from their family,” she said, prompting another interjection with Mullin pointing out the number of children lost under the Biden administration.

“Mr. Secretary, do not interrupt,” DeLauro yelled while pointing her finger at Mullin.
