Biden ICE Director Bucks White House, Calls Sanctuary Cities 'Inherently Unsafe'

The head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement says sanctuary cities are "inherently unsafe." That puts him at odds with the White House, which has repeatedly defended Democrat-controlled cities that harbor illegal aliens.
Lechleitner’s comments—a response to the Thursday arrest of four migrants charged with assaulting a New York City police officer in January—are a notable contradiction of White House policy. One of President Joe Biden’s first actions upon taking office was reversing a federal order that barred sanctuary cities from taking Justice Department funds.
