Secretary of State Marco Rubio has just secured the deportation of Tou Lue Vang, an undocumented immigrant pardoned by Tim Walz, who was convicted of s-xually abusing a 10-year-old girl in Minnesota.
RUBIO: "Just weeks ago, a convicted s*x offender and a foreign national was shielded from deportation by the governor of Minnesota."
"He even tried to pay his victim for her silence, and he called his heinous crimes a minor thing."
"Just days before this foreign s*x offender was scheduled to be deported, Tim Walz, the governor, issued him a pardon, setting him free to once again endanger the children of America."
"Well, this week, I revoked his legal status in the United States, and as a result, federal agents took him into custody, and as of today, he has been removed from the United States."
"Because of our action, this foreign criminal will never pose a threat to any American, ever again."
"Americans must never be forced by their elected leaders to live alongside foreign s*x criminals who have no right to begin with to reside in our country. This administration will always stand with the American people and defend them from violent criminals."
