Tom Homan, the Trump administration’s border czar, has revealed Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is under investigation. Speaking with political commentator, Benny Johnosn, Homan provided the shocking news.
The New York democrat is being investigated over allegations she not only employed an illegal immigrant but also helped illegal alliens evade being detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
“It’s being looked at, can’t comment past that. I’m aware of it, we’ve asked ICE to drill in on that case,” Homan told Benny Johnson. “As far as you know her educating people on how to evade ICE arrests, she’s really educating them on how to be prosecuted…when you knowingly hinder your removal, that’s a crime,” he added.
“Diego de la Vega, former deputy communications director for Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, New York Democrat, moved to Colombia in March after living in New York City for 23 years. He was born in Ecuador and moved to the U.S. as a 7-year-old on a visitor’s visa that he then overstayed, becoming undocumented,” the Washington Times reported.
De la Vega recently returned to his home country after nearly three decades living illegally in the United States. “I hadn’t left the country in 23 years—from age seven to age thirty. Now, I can’t go back to the U.S,” he told Migrant Indsider.
“It feels like exile. It’s a very permanent move. But my wife and I are confident we made the right decision. And after some time, it’s been a real pleasure to be here,” he explained.
“It feels surreal to not be ‘illegalized’ anymore. I don’t have to live in the shadows or constantly worry about paperwork,” de la Vega added
The illegal immigrant worked for former Democrat Rep. Carolyn Maloney before joining AOC’s office.
Homan explained how he instructed ICE to start prosecuting those attempting to evade ICE. “As far as her educating people on how to evade ICE arrests, she’s really educating them on how to be prosecuted. We have instructed ICE to start prosecuting these cases.”
