What is it that Tim Walz finds so troubling about enforcing our nation’s immigration laws? In a rather theatrical press conference today, Walz made the peculiar assertion that “there is no verifiable evidence” supporting the idea that President Donald J. Trump’s immigration enforcement efforts are “making America safer.”
It appears that radical leftists like Walz, consumed by their disdain for President Trump, have lost touch with reality, conveniently ignoring the compelling evidence that his immigration policies are, in fact, saving lives:
- The nation reportedly experienced the largest one-year decline in homicides in 2025, with particularly pronounced reductions in cities where the Trump Administration initiated targeted immigration enforcement and crime prevention operations.
- For instance, a single immigration enforcement operation in Florida led to the arrest of 150 illegal alien sex offenders, while similar initiatives in Chicago resulted in a significant reduction in violent crime.
- A staggering 70% of the 650,000+ illegal aliens deported by the Trump Administration since taking office had been charged with or convicted of crimes.
- Deaths of on-duty law enforcement officers decreased by nearly 25% in 2025.
- Traffic fatalities have plummeted, benefiting from reduced congestion in high-immigration cities and the removal of over 9,500 non-English-speaking commercial truck drivers who posed safety risks on our roads.
- Fentanyl trafficking across the southern border has been cut in half, resulting in lower fentanyl purity levels and fewer overdose deaths devastating American families.
- Emergency rooms have reported significant decreases in visits from illegal immigrants, allowing critical resources to be redirected to American citizens in need of urgent medical attention.
- The percentage of Americans who view crime as a “very” serious issue fell by nearly 15% in 2025, showcasing the tangible effects of President Trump’s policies on the daily lives of Americans.
It is an undeniable reality that President Trump’s immigration policies are protecting American citizens from potential harm at the hands of criminal illegal aliens who have no right to be in this country.
If Walz and the Democrats find this troubling, it only further reveals their alarming priorities — favoring criminals over the safety of American citizens.
