CNN’s Juliette Kayyem Demands Federal Government Suspend Immigration Enforcement in Uvalde
In the wake of Tuesday’s attack on a Texas elementary school which left 19 children and two adults dead, CNN national security analyst Juliette Kayyem called for the federal government to suspend immigration enforcement in the area of Uvalde, Texas, and turn the small town into a “safe harbor” for illegals residing there.
Speaking to CNN on Tuesday, Kayyem cited the demographics of the area of the shooting to highlight the importance of halting immigration enforcement there.
Last month, Kayyem
argued against referring to a New York City subway station shooting that injured more than two dozen people as an act of “terrorism,” a term she said should be reserved for political acts such as the January 6 Capitol riot.
In February, she
called to slash the tires of the Canadian trucker convoy and arrest the drivers protesting their government’s strict coronavirus policies.
In December, Kayyem
accused former President Donald Trump of “leading a terror movement.”
In 2015, she
protested against arming people in soft targets such as schools and public venues to prevent attacks.
