It's just astounding.
IT'S OUT! @JudiciaryGOP released the results of its investigation into sanctuary policies in Fairfax County, VA—and cited our research showing DA Steve Descano gives favorable treatment to illegal alien defendants to help them avoid deportation.

President Trump should pardon the East Haven Four – not as an act of mercy, but as an act of justice.
A pardon cannot undo the harm caused by the Obama DOJ's political persecution—but it can redeem them in the eyes of the law and restore their good names.
Many of you have reached out to us in shock over the new crop of radical, Soros-backed DAs who have just been elected across the country.
And you're not wrong.
Despite our tireless work raising the alarm about the very clear harm these prosecutors have caused, it is horrifying to see Americans continue to elect DAs who refuse to keep violent criminals locked up (while also weaponizing their power against their political enemies).
Our case load has NEVER been bigger.

Philly's Soros DA LARRY KRASNER has “exonerated” over FIFTY convicted murderers and set them free.
Not one of them is based on guilt or innocence. They're based on maliciously false allegations that former prosecutors violated their procedural rights in conducting the trial.

DWI arrests in Austin are down by more than half. Traffic deaths are up 24% per capita.
Before the city council cut 150 officers in 2021, APD had a DWI unit whose only job was catching drunk drivers before they killed.
Now Austin has no dedicated DWI or traffic enforcement.
AUSTIN MAN slams into a stopped minivan at 103 mph on Mother's Day, right in front of a cop, and kills a fire captain hours after his fifth son was born. DA Jose Garza's office asked him to pay a small fine.
Marvin Taylor was on his way to pick up his four other boys so they could meet their new baby brother. He was sitting at a red light on Koenig Lane when a Dodge Durango doing 103 in a 45 zone slammed into him and threw his van 150 feet. He died pinned inside.
The officer found the driver, Rodney Bremby, with bloodshot eyes and slurred speech and stench of alcohol.
He was charged with intoxication manslaughter, which carries up to 20 years in prison. A judge revoked his bond twice while the case was pending, and both times he was back out within two weeks.
On Monday he got 10 years of probation, community service, and $535 in fees.
Five boys have lost their father, and the man who killed him just had to pay a small fine and promise not do it again before going back home.

Police officers Zullo, Miller, Cari, and Spaulding were serving their small community of East Haven, Connecticut.
After Obama was elected (and threw open our borders), illegal immigrants started flooding into town. These four officers discovered thousands of these illegal immigrants were using forged documents to obtain license plates, fake car insurance cards, and even fake driver’s licenses.
So these officers did their jobs—enforcing the law and making hundreds of arrests.
Every single person arrested for their involvement in this crime ring was an illegal immigrant — including dozens of suspects with rap sheets a mile long.
So Obama’s DOJ showed up—not to thank these four officers for their hard work in breaking up this crime ring and getting dangerous criminals off the streets...
...the Obama DOJ accused them of racism and launched a political witch hunt, charging all four men with federal crimes for doing their jobs.
Not only that, they launched a vicious smear campaign in the media, painting the officers as hateful monsters.
They were sent to prison.
They lost everything.
Now they're telling their stories—and seeking justice: A pardon from President Trump.

A reminder that the Obama DOJ threw Connecticut cops IN PRISON and ruined their lives for persisting in their very annoying practice of *arresting any illegal immigrants they caught driving with fake licenses*
EXCLUSIVE: University Hockey Captain Killed in Wrong Way Collision With Twice-Deported Mexican Illegal in Sanctuary Connecticut
A beloved member of the University of New Haven community was killed in a head-on collision with a driver who is in the U.S. illegally, federal authorities have confirmed with Border Hawk.
The tragedy unfolded at around 11:45 p.m. on Oct. 16 in North Haven, Connecticut.
Ryan O’Shea, 21, was driving southbound on Interstate 91 when a pickup truck traveling in the wrong direction slammed into his Honda Accord, causing his vehicle to strike two SUVs, Connecticut State Police (CSP) explained in an accident summary.
O’Shea, who was on his way back to campus after playing in a hockey game, was pronounced deceased at the scene.
The driver of the pickup truck, who suffered “serious life-threatening injuries,” was identified as 31-year-old Guillermo Carmona-Lopez, a resident of Bridgeport, Connecticut.
“In May 2013, Border Patrol arrested Carmona-Lopez, a criminal illegal alien from Mexico, after he illegally entered the country. Carmona-Lopez was issued an expedited removal and was removed from the country,” the Department of Homeland Security told us.
“He then illegally reentered the country near the Rio Grande Valley after being removed—a felony—and was once again arrested by Border Patrol in May 2013. Carmona-Lopez was issued a final order of removal on May 30, 2013. He then reentered the country at an unknown time and place.”
It is currently unclear if Carmona-Lopez will face charges in connection with the crash.
A resident of Stony Point, New York, O’Shea served as senior assistant captain of the university’s club hockey team and also chapter president of the Kappa Sigma fraternity.
He was studying criminal justice with a concentration in police science and aspired to work for the New York Police Department.
“Ryan was not only a great leader, but he was a caring friend to anyone around him. He always knew how to light up a room and make people laugh, no matter the time. Ryan’s leadership and the memories he has made will never be forgotten,” Kappa Sigma wrote in an Instagram post memorializing O’Shea.
Ryan’s sisters said he “always found a way to make everything positive.”
“He was always trying to go out of the way to help others and include them in new spaces if they didn’t know anyone,” Kiera O’Shea stated.
Two memorial scholarships have been established in Ryan O’Shea’s name. Contributions can be made here.
We contacted CSP to request more information on this investigation and Carmona-Lopez’s current condition and will provide updates if they become available.

🚨NEW: Today, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) told me that 32-year-old Olmer Danilo Perez Villegas is an illegal immigrant from Honduras. On Tuesday, Fairfax County police announced they charged Perez Villegas in connection with a shooting on the 2200 block of Astoria Circle in Hutchison.
The Fairfax County Police Department (FCPD) said Perez Villegas was taken into custody for shooting two men. FCPD said that Perez Villegas was living in Herndon.
FCPD said Perez Villegas is charged with two counts of Malicious Wounding, Shooting into an Occupied Vehicle, and Use of a Firearm in the Commission of a Felony. He is being held without bond, according to police.
An ICE spokesperson told me, “On Oct. 27, Fairfax County Police arrested Perez Villegas in connection with a shooting in Herndon, Virginia. After his arrest, ICE Washington, D.C. lodged an immigration detainer against Perez Villegas with the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center.”
According to court records, Perez Villegas was charged with hit and run in 2019. But in 2020, Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano’s office dropped the charge.
In 2022, Perez Villegas was charged with DWI. Descano’s office reduced the DWI charge to reckless driving with no time served and 12 months of probation, according to court records.

Austin is paying racial-equity consultants to lecture its cops about racism -- about $3.56 million to date -- and to stop rejecting cadets with bad credit and evictions, and to fast-track black officers into command.
One APD commander was thrown out after he refused to agree to her workshop's premises about systemic racism.
She calls the workshop a "revolutionary exploration into how systems of racism work." APD cadets take this critical race theory course in their first two weeks at the academy.
She told APD to:
- Create a short-term career ladder to put more black Americans in leadership positions
- Rethink hiring disqualifiers like bad credit and evictions through a racial-equity lens
- Expand her training department-wide
The city has been cutting her checks as recently as February of this year.
APD has about 300 vacant officer positions.

Dude who got a $4 million city settlement in 2025 sells confidential information for $500 to an inmate "attempting to intimidate a witness in a domestic attempted murder case."
But not just any dude, he is the chair of the Philly Police Oversight Commission.
Of course he is.

You can’t hate the media enough.
Illegal alien shoots at ppl in a homeless encampment, off-duty FBI agent shoots him dead & saves the day.
Instead the media says this like this.
Your boos mean nothing I’ve seen what makes you cheer.
Imagine being stupid enough to show up to “take action” because an off-duty FBI agent shot & killed an illegal alien who was indiscriminately shooting into a homeless encampment. More proof that the far-left organizations like PSL & DSA are idiots.
Moron Alderman Sigcho-Lopez "It is really concerning that we have an FBI shooting of that nature”. Never mind the ppl that Corrales was shooting at, thoughts are all about the illegal alien.
Corrales had an active warrant for missing a court date after being arrested for retail theft. When he was arrested CPD found him in possession of a stolen passport.
