I’m guessing that Gavin doesn’t want to be the governor who let this illegal free when he runs for president
California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom has agreed to help the Trump administration pursue federal charges against an illegal immigrant being freed early after killing a young couple in a horrific drunk driving crash.
Newsom’s office promised the state would comply with an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainer to ensure the killer, Oscar Eduardo Ortega-Anguiano, does not end up back on US streets after his controversial early release.
“After being deported in 2013, this individual unlawfully re-entered the US & committed heinous crimes,” the governor’s office said in an X post.
“[California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation] will again coordinate with ICE — as they have w/ 10,000+ inmates — to transfer him before release.”
Ortega-Anguiano, 43, was convicted of vehicular manslaughter over the fiery 2021 wreck that left 19-year-old Anya Varfolomeev and her boyfriend, Nicholay Osokin, dead.
The victims’ families were alerted over the weekend that he would be eligible for release come July after serving just 3.5 years of his decade-long sentence.
Though, it is wild how many Democrat voters are livid at Gavin for giving a convicted killer up to ICE. What makes them want to support this guy? It can’t just be Trump Derangement Syndrome, can it?
Unfortunately, the feds are considering sticking Ortega-Anguiano in federal jail for coming back after deportation. I’d rather we just fly him to the tip of South America and drop him off.
LA is facing a billion dollar shortfall mainly I suspect due to the fact half of it burnt down.
Gavin wants his federal money to fix LA. He is giving up ONE illegal who will most likely be drunk the day he was released and likely do it all over again. Killing more American citizens who depend on the Government to keep them relatively safe.
How awesome of him.

Which raises the obvious question: what would Mr Newsom’s actual policies be if he wins the 2028 election? They’ve certainly been illegal-friendly as Governor!
This is where the problem lays: if illegals who are violent criminals are just “drop(ped) off” south of the border, many will attempt to re-enter the US illegally again. The distinguished Mr Ortega needs to have a federal conviction and sentence, and serve part of that sentence in our nastiest federal penitentiary, before having the rest of his sentence suspended, having his skanky ass sent back to his home country, with the provision that if he’s caught back in the United States again, he goes right back to federal prison to serve the suspended part of his sentence, along with being tried and sentenced for the maximum for recrossing following deportation.
While it’s great that some of the worst are being sent to the prisons in El Salvador, there’s no guarantee that a new government won’t be installed in that country, one which will empty the jails.
Will President Newom pardon Trump, or will he permit AG Harris to continue the investigation and prosecution of him?
We get it. MAGAts believe that “illegals” and “trannies” and “Islam” are the greatest threats to America. Illegals ARE a problem, but solvable without America becoming a fascist nation. Every little thing Trump does is for show. “An ounce of image is worth a pound of performance”. Especially to a cult! For a cult leader like Forty-$even, image is the only thing. It is better to look tough than to be tough!
Kidnapping “illegals” and harassing “trannies” and “Muslims” appeals to his far, far right “patriotic” and “real American” base, who understand little about the nation.
