Democratic New York Representative Dan Goldman is facing a wave of criticism after posting a series of tweets in Spanish and Chinese that many believe provided illegal immigrants with a step-by-step guide on how to evade Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The posts, which Goldman claims were aimed at informing immigrants of their rights, have been widely condemned as an effort to shield those who are in the country illegally from deportation. The controversy has only grown as Republicans and law enforcement officials point to potential violations of federal law and accuse Goldman of putting illegal immigrants ahead of American citizens.
In his posts, Goldman wrote that “every New Yorker has rights when they interact with immigration enforcement,” a statement that many saw as a direct challenge to federal immigration law. The tweets immediately sparked backlash, with critics arguing that Goldman was effectively encouraging illegal immigrants to resist ICE agents and obstruct federal enforcement efforts. Former Trump border czar Tom Homan weighed in on the controversy, warning that knowingly aiding or harboring illegal aliens is a federal crime. Homan accused Goldman of not only defying U.S. immigration law but also possibly committing a felony by providing guidance that could help individuals avoid arrest and deportation.

The reaction to Goldman’s statements has been fierce, with conservative voices across social media condemning his actions. Many Republican lawmakers and commentators have called for Goldman’s resignation or even legal consequences, arguing that his actions amount to aiding and abetting illegal immigration. Prominent conservative radio host Mark Levin went as far as suggesting that Goldman be expelled from Congress for his apparent disregard for national security. The outrage has extended beyond conservative circles, with many everyday Americans voicing frustration over the growing perception that Democrats are more concerned with protecting illegal immigrants than enforcing the law.
Goldman further escalated tensions by posting a video in which he attacked the Trump administration’s strong stance on immigration. In the video, he falsely characterized ICE enforcement operations as “raids” meant to intimidate migrant communities, implying that the agency was operating outside the law. The video also directed migrants to his official website, which features links to legal aid services that actively help illegal immigrants fight deportation. This move further infuriated critics, who accused Goldman of using government resources to directly undermine federal law enforcement.
As the controversy continued to grow, Goldman’s office attempted to downplay the situation, claiming that the tweets were intended for American citizens and legal immigrants rather than illegal aliens. However, ICE officials quickly refuted this claim, making it clear that their operations only target individuals with probable cause of being unauthorized noncitizens. A former ICE official dismissed Goldman’s explanation as a typical leftist attempt to spin the narrative, arguing that the real goal of his messaging was to weaken immigration enforcement efforts.
Goldman has tried to defend his actions by citing cases where ICE allegedly detained American citizens by mistake. However, these claims have been widely disputed, with ICE officials stating that they operate strictly within the law and only take action when they have legal authority to do so. Conservative critics argue that Goldman and his fellow Democrats are using isolated incidents—often unverified—to justify policies that ultimately put American communities at risk.
Adding to concerns over Goldman’s actions, illegal immigration from China has skyrocketed under the Biden administration, raising serious national security risks. Data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection revealed a staggering increase in illegal crossings by Chinese nationals in 2023, surpassing the combined totals of 2021 and 2022. Alarmingly, reports indicate that some of these crossings have been facilitated by groups linked to the Chinese government, raising suspicions about potential espionage and other security threats. This dramatic rise in illegal immigration has only fueled calls for stronger border security and stricter enforcement measures.
Republican lawmakers have been quick to condemn Goldman’s actions, with North Carolina Representative Mark Harris accusing him of actively trying to “aid illegals” and sabotage President Trump’s strong immigration policies. Harris slammed Democrats for using their platforms to provide guidance on avoiding ICE, calling it a direct attack on law enforcement and a betrayal of the American people. He argued that Goldman’s actions were part of a broader Democrat agenda to weaken immigration laws and prioritize illegal immigrants over hardworking American citizens.
Goldman’s position on the Committee on Homeland Security and the Judiciary Committee has also raised red flags, given his history of opposing border security measures. His voting record shows a consistent trend of blocking legislation aimed at deporting criminal illegal aliens, including his recent vote against the Laken Riley Act. This bill, designed to mandate the detention of illegal aliens arrested for theft-related crimes, was opposed by Goldman and other Democrats, reinforcing claims that they are more concerned with protecting illegal immigrants than ensuring public safety.
Meanwhile, under President Trump’s leadership, ICE has taken decisive action to enforce immigration laws and protect American citizens. Recent operations have led to the arrest of individuals with ties to terrorist organizations, gangs, and violent crimes. The White House has highlighted several key arrests, including an ISIS suspect, an MS-13 gang member, and a convicted child rapist, showcasing the effectiveness of Trump’s immigration policies.
Goldman’s actions serve as yet another example of the Democratic Party’s broader efforts to weaken border security and undermine law enforcement. As the Biden administration continues to allow illegal immigration to spiral out of control, the stakes have never been higher. Conservatives argue that now more than ever, America needs strong leadership—like President Trump’s—to secure the border, enforce the law, and put the safety of American citizens first.

WHY IS HE NOT ARRESTED? THIS IS TREASON AND HE SHOULD GO TO JAIL.
Absolutely! That was my very first thought as soon as I saw the headline and then read the first portion of the article! This bastard is a Traitor and must be locked up immediately!
Arrest the P0S!
