THE SEAN HANNITY SHOW

Liberal Policies Responsible for Tragic Death of Kate Steinle? We're continuing to spend a lot of time on 'Hannity' exploring the tragic death of Kate Steinle, the young woman who was murdered by Francisco Sanchez last week. Sanchez, as it turns out, had entered this country illegally and had chosen San Francisco for his residence in large part because of its "Sanctuary City" policy. What is a Sanctuary City? It's a city that refuses to enforce federal law or cooperate with federal officials when it comes to illegal immigration. The tragedy in this case is that the Immigration Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) had discussed with local law enforcement about the need to notify them before releasing Sanchez from jail. Federal authorities had an immigration detainer on file but the city of San Francisco, home of the most militant leftists in America, essentially gave Sanchez a get-out-of-jail free card. Josh Earnest, the president's chief propagandist, was bold enough to actually blame Republicans for this tragedy. In a press conference with reporters he said, "The fact is that the president has done everything within his power to make sure that we are focusing our law enforcement resources on criminals and those who pose a threat to public safety and it's because of the political efforts of Republicans that we have not been able to make the kind of investment that we'd like to make in securing our border and keeping our community safe." That is a lie! There is no other way to put it. What happened in this case was not because a lack of money, it was because of liberal policies supported by a liberal president who has made this country a Sanctuary Country. The bottom line is that Kate Steinle should be alive today and that is why this story is such a tragedy. MUST HEAR: Sean Exposes Illegal Immigrant Crime Stats As Donald Trump continues to be vilified by the left and lose business due to his candid remarks about illegal immigrants, Sean decided to highlight just how serious the illegal immigration problem really is. LISTEN: Sean discusses illegal immigrant crime stats Citing a Washington Times article from earlier this year, Sean breaks down how over 1,000 of the 36,000 illegal immigrant criminals released by the Obama Administration in 2013 had gone on to commit more crimes including sex abuse and child cruelty. The statistics are horrifying and make you wonder if Donald Trump is really deserving of the criticism he's receiving.
