Democrat Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger was caught on camera running away from a reporter asking about whether she would reverse her sanctuary policies and begin cooperating with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to remove dangerous illegal aliens from the state.

Spanberger turned away without comment as a reporter pressed her on Fairfax County’s sanctuary policies and repeated calls from federal immigration authorities.

The reporter specifically asked about discontinuing sanctuary practices in light of DHS data showing that three out of every four murder defendants in Fairfax County murder trials this year are illegal aliens.

WATCH:

DHS has directly urged Spanberger to end policies that shield criminal illegal aliens.

In an April X post, the agency stated, “Of the four defendants in Fairfax County murder trials this year, THREE are ILLEGAL ALIENS. Governor Spanberger must end her sanctuary policies that allow these illegal aliens onto our streets and work with DHS to protect the citizens of the commonwealth.”

One of Spanberger’s first official actions after taking office was to terminate all 287(g) agreements in Virginia.

These agreements had allowed state and local law enforcement to partner with ICE to identify and hand over criminal illegal aliens in custody.

Spanberger has also supported legislation that would further restrict local cooperation with federal immigration enforcement, including requirements for judicial warrants before honoring ICE detainers.

Fairfax County, a known sanctuary jurisdiction, has seen a string of high-profile violent crimes allegedly committed by illegal aliens under Spanberger’s tenure.

In February, Stephanie Minter, 41, was stabbed to death at a bus stop by Abdul Jalloh, an illegal alien from Sierra Leone with more than 30 prior arrests.

Fairfax County officials released him despite an ICE detainer.

In March, Misael Lopez Gomez, who illegally crossed the border in July 2023, was accused of murdering his three-month-old daughter. DHS issued a detainer requesting that he not be released.

“This cold-blooded killer murdered his own three-month-old daughter. We are calling on Governor Spanberger to commit to not releasing this barbaric animal from jail into Virginia communities,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “This monster should have never been allowed in our country by the Biden administration. We need cooperation from sanctuary politicians to stop criminals from being released from jail to perpetrate more crimes and create more innocent victims.”

Also in March, Anibal Armando Chavarria Muy, a Guatemalan illegal alien, was charged with second-degree murder after repeatedly stabbing a man.

DHS has highlighted multiple other killings linked to illegal aliens in Fairfax, including a mob murder and MS-13-related executions.

The agency has stated that illegal aliens accounted for 75% of murder defendants in the county this year.

DHS has repeatedly called on Spanberger and Fairfax officials not to release these individuals back into communities, citing the county’s refusal to honor over 1,150 ICE detainers in recent years.

A new Washington Post-Schar School poll shows Spanberger’s job approval rating at just 47% approve to 46% disapprove after only a few months in office, the highest early-term disapproval rating for any Virginia governor since polling began in the 1990s.

Critics argue that her shift from a centrist campaign image to left-leaning governance on issues such as immigration and redistricting has alienated her constituents.

The future is here!

On Wednesday afternoon, First Lady Melania Trump had a special guest at the White House for her Fostering the Future Together summit on AI education.

The First Lady began the second day of her tech summit at the White House by walking out with a U.S.-built humanoid robot.

As she entered the summit, which consists of leaders from 45 nations and over 28 technology organizations, she shared, “It’s fair to state you’re my first American-made humanoid guest in the White House.”

WATCH:

Per The Washington Times:

A talking humanoid robot joined first lady Melania Trump for her international summit on technology in Washington, an eye-popping start to the second day of the session.

The robot walked down a corridor with Mrs. Trump before welcoming guests in multiple languages in the East Room.

The white and black robot then wandered back down the hall while Mrs. Trump joked about it being the first “American-made humanoid guest in the White House.”

The first lady is hosting the spouses of world leaders this week as part of her Fostering the Future coalition. Its goal is to improve children’s lives through education and technology, harnessing artificial intelligence while mitigating potential risks tied to AI.

Time Magazine awarded the Figure 03 humanoid robot as one of the best inventions of 2025.

The robot can perform tasks around the home, such as folding clothes and loading the dishwasher.

Figure AI, the company behind the robot, hopes to put the bots to work across the U.S. economy.

Loyola University Campus Newspaper Apologizes for Calling Murder Suspect an ‘Illegal Immigrant’ Instead of “Rogers Park Resident”

Former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich joined Laura Ingraham on Fox News to discuss the tragic and preventable murder of 18-year-old Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman.

Early in the morning on Thursday of last week, 18-year-old Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman was shot and killed near the Chicago campus by one of Joe Biden’s illegals.

The masked gunman approached a group of students walking in the Rogers Park neighborhood and opened fire, shooting Gorman in the head. She died at the scene.

On Sunday, it was confirmed that the masked gunman who killed Gorman is a 25-year-old illegal alien from Venezuela who entered the US under the Biden Regime. Police took Jose Medina-Medina into custody.

In its coverage of the tragedy, Loyola’s campus newspaper, The Phoenix, has caved to the woke mob by changing wording in the coverage of the murder of one of its own to placate the left’s agenda.

While originally referring to Medina as an illegal immigrant, they edited the post to frame him as a “Rogers Park Resident.”

The College Fix reports:

Campus newspaper The Phoenix originally reported on the charges with an Instagram post titled: “Immigrant Man Charged in Murder of Sheridan Gorman, DHS Involved.”

The original post also referred to Medina as an “illegal immigrant.”

However, facing backlash, the student newspaper edited the post to remove the term “illegal immigrant.” The newspaper refers to Medina as a “Rogers Park Resident,” referring to the Chicago neighborhood where Loyola’s main campus is located.

An editor’s note was added to the original story, which spent almost as much time bemoaning the “harm” of calling the alleged murderer what he is than spent on the tragic death of a young woman just beginning her life.

Editor’s Note:

On March 23, a post on The Phoenix’s Instagram page carried the following headline: “Immigrant Man Charged in Murder of Sheridan Gorman, DHS Involved.”

That headline didn’t reflect the most important elements in the story, and it was taken down minutes later to prevent any further harm to affected community members.

Additionally, in the body of the original post, we described the man who was charged as an “illegal immigrant,” using language provided by the Department of Homeland Security. That language does not align with Associated Press style, nor does it align with the values of this newspaper.

No human’s existence is illegal, and we quickly changed our wording to reflect that.

We acknowledge the harm such language can cause and the power and importance of the words we choose to use. We deeply regret these errors, and we’re committed to continuing the high standards we hold for ourselves as journalists and members of the Loyola, Rogers Park and Chicago communities.

Eric Swalwell is DONE. Out of the California governor’s race in a stunning collapse. But that’s not enough. Not even close. I’m calling for his immediate expulsion from Congress.

Because the real story is just beginning.

A mysterious video. Swalwell. An alleged sex worker. And a shadowy man no one can identify… yet. Who is he? Why was he there? And why does no one in the media seem interested in asking the obvious questions?

We are.

The hunt is on and what we’re uncovering could blow this wide open.

And then there’s the Catholic Church. Once a pillar of moral clarity. Now? Three archbishops and the Pope attacking Donald Trump, condemning deportations, and weighing in on war with Iran. Since when did the Church abandon law, order, and common sense?
