Laken Riley was murdered--dead today--because immigration policy was constructed to the point they had too many people and not enough beds and they let the man go. She is dead. A year ago today, we signed the law. There are a bunch of cases like Laken Riley-- raped, murdered, dead. There are two sides of this debate. I get what you are saying about ICE going too far. I am with Senator Schmitt. God bless these people for being willing to do it. And as for the ones who did it wrong, hold them accountable. I am passionate about cleaning up this mess. It is a mess that needs to be cleaned up, and President Trump is adjusting with Homan. But I am not going to give up on the idea of the root cause of the problem. It is not Trump. It is not Miller. It is not Noem--all the people you hate. The real cause of the problem is you have instilled into your base that it is OK to defy the law when you like it.
