DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas was on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday morning.
Host Margaret Brennen had asked Secretary Mayorkas if the illegal alien who killed Laken Riley should have been deported. He never answered, but instead deflected the question.
Laken Riley, a 22-year-old Georgia nursing student, was brutally murdered by one of Joe Biden’s illegal aliens.
Biden won’t say Laken Riley’s name either.
“Should this man have been deported?” Brennen asked Mayorkas.
“One individual is responsible for the murder, and that is the murderer,” Mayorkas responded.
“Are you saying there that the Federal Government had been informed about this individual and the alleged crimes he had committed in those states because he could have been deported if that was the case. Was there a breakdown in the system?” Brennen continued.
“So um, Margaret, there are a number of cities around the country that have varying degrees of cooperation with the the immigration authorities,” Mayorkas continued.

Jose Ibarra, suspect in the murder of Riley, a Georgia nursing student, is an undocumented Venezuelan migrant who had been detained by U.S. Customs and Border Protection upon crossing into the country with permission to stay in the country on a temporary basis. The individual then went on to allegedly commit two offenses in New York and Georgia, according to Immigrations and Customs Enforcement.
Mayorkas said that the federal government works closely with state and local law enforcement “to ensure that individuals who pose a threat to public safety are indeed our highest priority for detention and removal.” But he made clear that different locales have “varying degrees of cooperation with immigration authorities.”
“We firmly believe that if a city is aware of an individual who poses a threat to public safety, then we would request that they provide us with that information so that we can ensure that that individual is detained if the facts are warrant,” Mayorkas said.
