‘What Are They Here For?!’ Fox Host Shuts Down Jessica Tarlov By Wildly Claiming Migrants Are Only in the U.S. to Harm Americans
While guest-hosting The Five on Friday, Katie Pavlich sparred with co-host Jessica Tarlov after she cited statistics showing migrant crime isn’t as high as it’s made out to be.
Tarlov reacted to President Joe Biden’s remarks from the southern border Thursday and argued that nothing Biden could have said would have swayed critics. She also made the case that illegal immigration won’t be the determinative factor in the 2024 presidential election that many on the right believe it will be.
“That doesn’t mean that it isn’t affecting liberal cities,” Tarlov added, arguing:
Now, this Operation Lone Star, which is what Governor Abbott has done in terms of shipping migrants, has obviously made an impact. But we are not relying on the FBI data about migrant crime to say that areas that have gotten the most migrants from Operation Lone Star have lower crime rates. We have city data, and that’s what NBC News did a big investigation into that and found that to be the case. So yes, Laken Riley, it’s a terrible tragedy, but it doesn’t mean that these are all ‘bad hombres’ that are coming across. I mean, he says that they’re poisoning the country.
“What are they here for? What are they here for?” Pavlich interjected, speaking over Tarlov.
“To work,” Tarlov shot back.
“What are millions of single military-aged men from China, from countries where they don’t have any kind of documentation, where there are terror hotspots from all around the world? What do you think they’re here for?!” Pavlich demanded again.
“You think that they’re not trying to work,” replied Tarlov.
“They’re not working. They’re getting debit cards from the mayor of New York. They’re taking over hotels in Washington, DC. They’ve taken over a homeless shelter. This gang of illegal immigrants have come in and completely taken the street over,” Pavlich hit back.
Tarlov replied, “Does that mean they are poisoning the country?”
“They’re they’re wielding knives, I’ve seen them. They’re dealing drugs. They’re getting arrested. It’s not just Laken Riley,” Pavlich responded, adding:
I can give you dozens of examples of people who’ve been victims of crimes over the past week. You had a two-year-old who was killed by an illegal immigrant in Maryland. You had a young woman, 14 years old, raped by an illegal immigrant in Louisiana. The list goes on and on and on. You have people, hiding all of this in the community because they’re undocumented. And the women who are in these situations, you have no voice when it comes to what’s happening.
Back to the visit from yesterday with President Joe Biden and then former President Donald Trump. Donald Trump was meeting with Texas DPS and the Texas National Guard, people who were actually doing something to stop this from happening, to stop these people that Joe Biden invited into the country from hurting young women and children in every city across the country.
Joe Biden was meeting with political officials and Border Patrol agents who he has given orders to work against Texas. You just had the standoff in the park where they were allowing people to come in while Joe Biden stands up and demands more money from the American taxpayer not to stop dangerous people from coming into their cities, but to process more of them. That’s what he wants, and that’s what he wants Republicans to give him.
