The Calls Are Coming From Inside The House (Ep. 2551)
"Just weeks ago, a convicted sex offender and a foreign national was shielded from deportation by the governor of Minnesota. Just days before this foreign sex offender was scheduled to be deported, Tim Walz, the governor, issued him a pardon. Well, this week I revoked his legal status in the United States, and as a result, federal agents took him into custody and as of today, he has been removed from the United States."
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the deportation of a Laotian national convicted of sexually abusing a 10-year-old girl after revoking his legal status, directly contradicting a pardon issued by Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Federal agents arrested and removed the individual from the country. The case highlights tensions between federal immigration enforcement and state-level pardons.
