There’s a reason why sanctuary jurisdictions are so unnecessarily dangerous. When they have criminals in custody who are to be removed from the country, they willfully put their citizens at risk by releasing them if they’re illegal immigrants. That’s the nature of sanctuary policies. They put the safety needs of the citizens behind the desire for freedom of criminal illegal aliens.
It makes no sense at all. The prevailing premise that sanctuary status allows law enforcement to work more closely with communities rife with illegal immigrants has been proven to be completely false. Conversely, crime rates in sanctuary jurisdictions have proven to go up once these obtuse policies are put into place. This should seem like a no-brainer; releasing criminals to the streets so they can continue to commit crimes while evading ICE is a certain path to higher crime rates. Yet, the desires of those who broke the law to be here in the first place is given primacy over the needs of legal citizens to be protected by law enforcement.
If law enforcement refuses to enforce the laws over misguided virtue signaling policies, citizens have no reason to feel safe.
ICE has been fighting back, not just against the illegal aliens they seek for deportation but also in the political and PR battle against sanctuary jurisdictions. They released details about Franklin County, Ohio, a jurisdiction that has been notably robust in their unwillingness to abide by federal detainers. It is the county with the state capital, Columbus, so it serves as a particularly poignant jab at sanctuary policies. The sheriff’s office in the county is responsible for putting over two-dozen criminals back on the streets to protect them instead of protecting citizens.
29 criminal aliens released by Franklin County Sheriff’s Office in recent weeks
COLUMBUS — The Franklin County Sheriff’s Office has released 29 criminal aliens and immigration violators since November 2019, despite written detainer requests filed with them by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
“When dangerous criminal aliens are released into the community, public safety is needlessly put at risk because of the individual’s propensity to re-offend,” said Rebecca Adducci, field office director for ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) in Michigan and Ohio. “ICE remains committed to arresting and removing criminal aliens in the interest of public safety and national security, despite local decisions to not honor detainers and jeopardize the safety of its citizens.”
ICE recently apprehended the following criminal alien after his release from the Franklin County Sherriff’s Office with an active detainer in place:
- Hajir Muhammud, a 59-year old national of Somalia, was arrested by local authorities Dec. 27, for failure to register as a Tier 1 sex offender. He is a convicted sex offender for crimes involving children. ICE lodged a detainer following his arrest. He was subsequently released after Franklin County declined to honor the ICE detainer. On Jan. 6, ICE arrested Muhammud, and he is currently in custody pending removal proceedings.
However, several criminal aliens released by the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office are currently at-large. Efforts by ICE to apprehend these men are currently underway.
Has the county’s penchant for prioritizing illegal aliens over law-abiding citizens made crime lower? No. In fact, the latest numbers show Columbus has a whopping 77% higher violent crime rate than the rest of the state. Their rates for murders, rapes, and robberies are all more than double the national average. We’re not talking about Chicago, Los Angeles, or Baltimore. We’re talking about Columbus, Ohio.
Efforts to keep American citizens safe are only hampered by sanctuary jurisdictions like Franklin County, Ohio. They shield criminal illegal aliens and put their citizens at great risk. ICE has to work much harder as a result. Sanctuary jurisdictions must be abolished.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
