You can’t be critical of Democrats and left-wing liberals enough when it comes to the callous way they purposely put our country and their neighbors and constituents at risk.
Far-left New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani hasn’t even been sworn in yet, but New York State is already doubling down on policies that shield illegal immigrants and push back against the Trump administration’s effort to remove criminal non-citizens from the streets. This year alone, the state has released nearly 7,000 illegal immigrants — including individuals accused of some truly serious and disturbing crimes.
Here are some of the kinds of people left-wing Democrats in New York are protecting:
New York state has released nearly 7,000 known illegal migrant criminals without notifying ICE since President Trump took office — including murderers, sexual predators and a maniac booted from the US eight times who attacked an Ithaca cop with a machete, the Department of Homeland Security revealed Monday.
Their rap sheets include 29 homicides, thousands of assaults and hundreds of burglaries, robberies, drug offenses, weapons offenses and sexual predatory offenses, according to DHS.
There are also several thousand more still sitting in New York City jails.
All of this stems from the state’s sanctuary laws, which bar local law enforcement from cooperating with ICE — even when dealing with offenders who pose clear risks to the public. On Monday, Tricia McLaughlin, an assistant secretary at the Department of Homeland Security, blasted Democrats such as Gov. Kathy Hochul and Rep. Dan Goldman for policies she said endanger communities by keeping ICE on the sidelines instead of allowing federal agents to remove criminal non-citizens from the state.
“We’re saying that these criminal illegal aliens are exiting the jails and going back onto New York or Chicago or these other sanctuary streets to re perpetuate their crimes. Today, in New York City’s jails are 7,169 criminal illegal aliens. We’re talking about hundreds of murderers, hundreds of sexual predators, drug traffickers, the worst of the worst,” she said in a Fox News interview.

“Dan Goldman and these other sanctuary city politicians, they should agree to hand over those individuals, honor those detainers, and then we won’t have to flood the zone with our ICE law enforcement. We won’t have to put those men and women on the ground because we will get these vicious criminals out of New York City’s jails,” she added.
In an X post, she also noted that some 7,000 of these low-lifes who shouldn’t even be in our country have also been released by New York Democrats:
Under @KathyHochul New York has refused to honor @ICEgov detainers and RELEASED back onto New York’s streets 6,947 criminal illegal aliens since January 20.
The crimes of these aliens include:
-29 homicides
-2,509 assaults
-207 sexual predatory offenses
-199 burglaries
-305…— Tricia McLaughlin (@TriciaOhio) December 1, 2025
-29 homicides
-2,509 assaults
-207 sexual predatory offenses
-199 burglaries
-305 robberies
-392 dangerous drugs offenses
-300 weapons offenses
This is why we flood the zone.
Here are a couple more of the scumbags New York Democrats have released into the population:
Vyacheslav Danilovich Kim — who was busted for traveling to have sex with a girl whom he believed was 13 years old.
Steven Daniel Henriquez Galicia, 25, a Dominican national who entered the US illegally in 2016, was arrested in the Bronx last year for attempted murder after he allegedly opened fire outside an apartment building.
Anderson Smith Satuye Martinez, 21, a Crips gang member and Honduran national with a prior assault conviction, was busted Aug. 19 for criminal possession of a weapon and possession of a controlled substance.
ICE Director Todd Lyons sent a letter Monday to New York Attorney General Letitia James demanding that the remaining illegal immigrants in state custody be turned over to federal authorities. But given James’ track record — and her chronic case of Trump Derangement Syndrome — there’s little reason to expect she’ll comply.
These sanctuary policies trace back to disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, whose legacy on public safety keeps aging like spoiled milk. And considering he just lost the mayoral race to Zohran Mamdani, New Yorkers were effectively choosing between two bad options — and still ended up with the worse one:
New York’s sanctuary laws tie the hands of law enforcement when cooperating with immigration agents, which crime suspects and even convicted child molesters are released back into the community — instead of being sent home.
A 2017 executive order signed by then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo prohibits law enforcement officers from using “resources, equipment, or personnel” for helping feds enforce immigration laws.
As we’ve seen in blue state after blue state and in city after crumbling city, Democrats seem far more interested in waging war against ICE and undermining President Trump than in protecting the people who actually live in these communities. Sanctuary policies have turned major urban areas into revolving doors for criminal offenders, and the results speak for themselves.
These laws need to go the way of the dodo — extinct. Ditto for the ‘Hate America First’ Democratic Party.
