Kamala Harris’ Promise to Close Private ICE Detention Centers ‘on day one’ Could Dump Thousands of Convict Migrants Onto US Streets; Harris Shredded for Resurfaced Video of Promising to Close Migrant Detention Centers, and other C-Virus related stories

Kamala Harris’ promise to close private ICE detention centers ‘on day one’ could dump thousands of convict migrants onto US streets:

Vice President Kamala Harris’ past pledge to “absolutely” close all privately run immigration detention centers could mean releasing roughly 29,000 illegal migrants into American communities — including some 7,000 convicted criminals.

A newly resurfaced clip shows then-Sen. Harris (D-Calif.) responding to a question at an October 2019 town hall in Iowa City, when she was running as a candidate in the 2020 presidential race, promising to close the detention centers on “day one” in the White House.

“I want to know, when you become president, would you be committing to close the immigration detention centers?” the attendee asked.

Harris responded: “Absolutely, on day one. On day one.”

More than 75% of the 37,000 migrants in ICE detention are held in privately run detention centers. More than 10,000 of the migrants are convicted criminals and 4,000 have pending criminal charges.

At least 7,000 of the convicts are in private facilities, data shows.

“Their business model is that people are profiting off the incarceration of other human beings,” Harris said in 2019 of the contract facilities.

“I, on day one, will shut them down. That is not how our taxpayer dollars should be spent.”

Publicly traded security companies such as the GEO Group and Corecivic often own or operate the private detention centers.

It’s not clear whether Harris still supports the policy of immediately closing private detention centers. Although Harris is running as the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee, she hasn’t officially released her policy agenda. —>READ MORE HERE

Harris shredded for resurfaced video of promising to close migrant detention centers:

‘The left doesn’t just stop at crime and open borders, they are moving to no borders,’ a Republican congressman argued

Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris faced renewed scrutiny on Monday when an old clip of her promising to close down facilities that hold illegal immigrants resurfaced.

The clip, which was from 2019 when Harris was running to be the 2020 Democratic nominee, went viral as her campaign promises she intends to secure the border if she becomes president.

The footage showed an attendee at an event asking Harris, “I want to know, when you become president, would you be committing to close the immigration detention centers?”

“Absolutely, on day one,” Harris replied. “On day one.”

Since becoming the Democratic nominee, Harris has taken a tougher stance on immigration, abandoning her former positions on the issue.

“I was attorney general of a border state. I went after the transnational gangs, the drug cartels and the human traffickers,” Harris told an audience at a recent rally. “I prosecuted them in case after case and I won, so I know what I’m talking about.”

“We know our immigration system is broken and we know what it takes to fix it: comprehensive reform. That includes strong border security and an earned pathway to citizenship,” she added.

Republicans blasted Harris, saying her record on immigration has been one of lack security and open borders. —>READ MORE HERE
