In a discussion on O'Connor and Company, former Attorney General Jason Miyares joins to address the rising crime rates linked to illegal immigration in Fairfax County, Virginia. Miyares emphasizes the consequences of sanctuary policies implemented by Governor Abigail Spanberger, which prohibit local cooperation with federal authorities, including the state police and Department of Corrections. These policies, Miyares argues, have created an environment that attracts illegal immigrants and leads to increased violent crime. He cites specific cases of violent acts committed by released illegal immigrants and discusses the failure of previous policies. Governor Glenn Youngkin, with Miyares as Attorney General, has taken a different approach by signing Executive Order 47, establishing a state immigration task force to collaborate with state, local, and federal authorities. This has resulted in the apprehension of over 130 gang members, including the East Coast leader of MS-13. Miyares and Youngkin stress the importance of law enforcement cooperation to protect citizens and prevent further violence. The conversation also touches on the role of media in reporting these issues and the disconnect between voters' expectations and the reality of crime rates. Miyares further discusses the rise of socialism within the Democratic party and its dangerous implications, advocating for a return to principles of free enterprise and individual empowerment. He concludes by expressing his commitment to combating socialism and considering a future run for governor of Virginia.
