Good Tuesday morning. It's so nice to have you with us on the 47 Morning Update. And we've got two stories under one big subject and it deals with illegal immigration. J.D. pritzker, the governor in Illinois, has now freed nearly 1,800 illegal aliens charged with murder, assault and sex crimes. This on top of Gavin Newsom doing something that will shock you even more. Allowing for another illegal immigrant to kill an 8 year old girl in a drunk driving crash. Why is this happening? We'll explain it to you, but first I want to tell you about our friends over at Patriot Mobile. Every so often, something happens that reminds us just how fragile our freedoms are. We can't afford to take our rights for granted. We must draw a line in the sand. And our friends at Patriot Mobile have been doing just that for more than 12 years.

Your life is one of them. With the new moves that they're doing to undermine Donald Trump and the laws in this nation. The sanctuary state of Illinois has now released more than 1,800 illegal aliens. They've been charged with crimes such as murder, assault, burglary, robbery and sex crimes, including crimes against children. And they released them on purpose back in the communities since Donald Trump took office in late January. The new data is exposing all of this. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Acting Director Todd Lyons released the data on Monday while urging Illinois's attorney general to honor more than 4,000 active ICE detainers that the agency has lodged against criminal legal aliens in the sanctuary state of Illinois. In particular, Lyons said Illinois officials have already failed to honor more than 1768 ICE detainers and release the illegal aliens back into neighborhoods. Among those illegal aliens that have been released back into America, five charged with murder who are now walking among us 141 charged with assault, walking among us 23 charged with burglary, walking among us 10 charged with sex crimes, now walking among us and four charged with robbery. 24 charged with drug crimes, many of them dealing with fentanyl that are killing Americans. And 15 charged with weapons offenses as well. Meanwhile, the crimes of more than 4,000 illegal aliens with active ICE detainers in Illinois, including 51 charged with murder, 1,134 charged with assault, 107 charged with burglary, 36 charged with robbery, 275 charged with drug crimes and 120 charged with weapons offenses. And this is the one that is the most shocking 813 illegal aliens charged with sex crimes. Governor Pritzker and his fellow Illinois sanctuary politicians are releasing these murderers, pedophiles and kidnappers back into our neighborhoods and putting American lives at risk, the Department of Homeland security secretary Trisha McLaughlin said in a statement. She then said, we are calling on Governor Pritzker and his administration to stop this dangerous derangement and commit to honoring the ICE arrest detainers of the more than 4,000 criminal legal aliens in Illinois's custody, it is common sense. Criminal legal aliens should not be released back into our streets to terrorize more innocent Americans, ICE officials said. Illinois has released from custody and failed to honor detainers for illegal aliens such as a 49 year old Victor Manuel Menendez Garcia of Mexico, who was convicted of kidnapping for ransom and sentenced to 18 years in prison. A new release from ICE detailed other instances where illegal aliens were released from custody instead of being turned over to ICE agents. Juan Morales Martinez, an illegal alien from Guatemala, for example, was arrested after a vehicle crash near Westfield, Illinois where he was a passenger. Early reports the vehicle crash showed not one but two fatalities. It was a county board member and his wife. Police also found an extended magazine and ammunition in the vehicle. On October 25, ICE lodged a detainer on Morales Martinez. October 27, ICE arrested Morales after his release from the Clark County Jail. The jail did not cooperate with ice, but ICE officers suspected his release and performed an enforcement action outside of the county jail. He has now been removed from the United States of America, but he would be among us if it was left up to the sanctuary state of Illinois. There was another man by the name of Gonzalez Jimenez, an illegal alien from Mexico. He was arrested and convicted for one count of driving under the influence and domestic battery and two counts of criminal sexual assault. Yet again, Illinois chose deliberately to refuse the ICE detainer for this individual, again accused of two counts of criminal sexual assault. On November 13, ICE arrested the man as he was released from jail. Juan Alberto Caro Morin, an illegal alien from Mexico, was arrested and convicted of aggravated criminal sexual abuse of a victim and a family and sentenced to six years in Illinois's Department of Corrections. ICE detainer for that man was also not honored on November 9th, ICE arrested Carl Marin, where he is currently in ICE custody. Yet again, Illinois saying no, we'd rather play politics than keep our citizens safe from these dangerous criminals. This is just one example of what Donald Trump and our government is up against as time and time again these radicals in radical cities and states around the country are constantly refusing to work with ICE to keep Americans safe. And yet again, the President is not backing down, sending more resources to Illinois to find and to put into custody these more than 1,800 illegal aliens charged with murder, assault, sex crimes. And what has happened. Illinois chose to put them back into our neighborhoods instead of hand them over to ice.
