Tucker Carlson: Democratic legislation aims to protect criminals from deportation
"Tucker Carlson Tonight" tackled some alarming Democratic legislation Thursday that would protect criminals from being deported and handcuff law enforcement.

"At this moment there is a bill pending in Congress called the New Way Forward Act. It’s received almost no publicity, which is unfortunate, as well as revealing. The legislation is sponsored by 44 House Democrats, including Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. At roughly 4,400 words, it’s almost exactly as long as the U.S. Constitution," Carlson said.
"A press release from Congressman Jesus Garcia of Illinois is explicit about this. Garcia brags that the bill will break the 'prison to deportation pipeline,'" Carlson said. "If this bill passes, there will no longer be any crimes that automatically require deportation. None. And one crime, falsifying a passport, will be made immune from deportation, no matter what."
"The bill would grant sweeping new powers to immigration judges, allowing them to nullify a deportation order," Carlson said. "In other words, anti-American immigration judges — and many of them are exactly that — would have a blank check to open the borders. No vote required."
It's not mentioned in the text but mentioned in the video that the bill would also use taxpayer money to bring back those people deported for crimes they had committed. Additionally, the Act calls enforcing border control inherently white supremacist.

There are roughly 44 Democratic co sponsors for the bill, ranging from people you'd expect this from like Ocasio Cortez and Tlaib but also people who were nominally moderate Democrats.
Apparently there hasn't been much talk about it from other news sources and no one made a thread about it here so I figured I'd share it with you guys since I suspect the Americans here would be less then pleased to hear about what some of their politicians are trying to pull even if the Senate would in all likelyhood tell them to get lost.
