Tim Walz Pardons Illegal Immigrant Convicted of Child Sexual Assault to Block Deportation

[00:00] Governor Tim Walz has pardoned a

[00:01] criminal, illegal migrant who's guilty

[00:03] of raping someone. And this is another

[00:06] demonstration of why their empathy is

[00:09] misplaced. It is being weaponized in a

[00:11] way that is suicidal to our society. And

[00:14] it just shows the lack of empathy they

[00:16] have for the victims. Let's listen to

[00:18] this now.

[00:19] >> There are new accusations against top

[00:21] officials in sanctuary state Minnesota

[00:23] over protecting an illegal immigrant

[00:25] convicted of repeatedly sexually

[00:28] assaulting a 10-year-old girl. A hard

[00:30] story to talk about and to read about,

[00:31] but it happened and we need to tell you.

[00:33] Homeland Security accusing Governor Tim

[00:35] Walz of granting a pardon, effectively

[00:38] just wiping away his criminal record to

[00:39] help shield the man from a final order

[00:42] of deportation.

[00:43] >> So, Brooke Taylor is on that. She joins

[00:45] us now for more. And Brooke, what did

[00:46] you find out? Good morning.

[00:48] >> Hi, Bill. Good morning. Well, Governor

[00:50] Tim Walz facing major backlash for this.

[00:52] So, he sits on the board that pardoned

[00:54] this convicted child sex offender as he

[00:57] was just about to be deported. So, back

[01:00] in 2006, Ka Lee Vang right here, he was

[01:03] convicted of repeatedly sexually

[01:05] assaulting a 10-year-old girl in

[01:07] Minnesota. He pleaded guilty

[01:11] >> 10-year-old girl.

[01:15] Guilty.

[01:17] Was issued a final order of removal.

[01:20] And the governor comes in and saves him.

[01:25] The governor, just so we understand,

[01:26] bottom line up front.

[01:28] A sitting governor

[01:30] issued a pardon

[01:32] to wipe away this man's crimes so he

[01:36] couldn't get deported.

[01:39] That's how bad it is at this point.

[01:42] What other signal are you sending to

[01:44] American citizens who have been harmed

[01:47] by scumbags like this?

[01:49] Don't you think a scumbag like that has

[01:52] no business being in in in the country?

[01:54] Oh, that's right. Tim Walz is friends

[01:55] with school shooters.

[01:57] >> in a deal that kept him out of prison,

[01:59] DHS says that conviction cost him his

[02:01] legal status and made him deportable.

[02:04] Well, the details in these court

[02:05] documents, they're too graphic for me to

[02:07] repeat to you on air, but it describes

[02:09] the abuse spanning 2 years from the time

[02:12] the victim was 10 to just 12 years old.

[02:15] The girl told investigators she met Vang

[02:17] through her older sister who he later

[02:19] married. Investigators say he admitted,

[02:22] {quote} "I made a mistake, but this is a

[02:25] minor thing. It's a cultural thing in

[02:27] Thailand to marry and have sex with

[02:29] girls as young as 12."

[02:31] >> That is true.

[02:33] He could be right about that, but this

[02:35] ain't Thailand, bro. This is the United

[02:37] States of America.

[02:38] You become an adult at the age of 18.

[02:41] And some people are just not compatible

[02:43] with our culture. This would be a prime

[02:45] example of why.

[02:48] This would be a prime example.

[02:50] Why someone like that has no business

[02:51] being in our country, especially if they

[02:54] entered illegally and committed heinous

[02:56] acts like this.

[02:59] How How could a

[03:02] I don't even think you can make sense of

[03:03] this. I don't I don't think you can.

[03:05] But let's go to the governor, because

[03:07] here he is

[03:08] signing that pardon.

[03:10] >> The applicate The applicant is

[03:12] requesting a pardon. A pardon may be

[03:14] given to an individual who has finished

[03:16] their sentence and completed a waiting

[03:17] period. No member of the board has

[03:19] requested a second hearing. The board

[03:21] members may ask questions of the

[03:23] executive director Stark and chair

[03:25] Lindstrom who have joined us um and we

[03:26] may discuss amongst ourselves. We will

[03:29] then have a vote on whether to grant or

[03:30] deny the pardon to Mr. Vang.

[03:33] >> They already know what the vote is, by

[03:35] the way. Come on now. It's not like they

[03:36] just showed up and oh, we're going to

[03:38] figure this out on top of our head. No,

[03:40] they've already kind of They already

[03:42] know what's going to happen here.

[03:43] >> The board may grant a pardon unless

[03:44] myself as governor or a majority of the

[03:47] board opposes the relief. The applicant

[03:50] has been unanimously recommended for a

[03:52] pardon by the clemency review commission

[03:54] without the need for a second hearing.

[03:57] The clemency review commission

[03:59] recommends the Board of Pardons grant a

[04:01] pardon without a second hearing to Jai

[04:03] Bhag.

[04:05] >> So, at this point we don't need to hear

[04:08] anything about January 6th, right?

[04:10] Is Is that fair to say now?

[04:12] Are Are we good on that? I don't want to

[04:14] hear any complaints about the president

[04:16] pardoning January 6th people. I don't

[04:19] want to hear it.

[04:20] None of them are rapists or pedophiles.

[04:22] None of them were in the country

[04:23] illegally.

[04:25] Most of them didn't even put their hands

[04:26] on an officer.

[04:28] I don't want to hear it.

[04:29] You guys want to par- You guys want to

[04:31] pardon scumbags like this? Go right on

[04:33] ahead. It's his authority. He can do it.

[04:35] That's the the other thing about this.

[04:37] There's nothing to really push back on

[04:38] him in in regards to his authority. He's

[04:40] allowed to issue pardons like this. But,

[04:43] he can definitely receive the same level

[04:44] of criticism that the president did in

[04:47] regards to pardoning January 6th. I'm

[04:48] not even equating these two. I'm just

[04:50] telling you the only other stories out

[04:53] there were president pardoning January

[04:54] 6th individuals and Joe Biden pardoning

[04:57] his family.

[04:59] So,

[05:00] this is the trade-off with pardons

[05:01] overall.

[05:02] >> At this time,

[05:04] I would mention that Mr. Bhag was

[05:06] convicted

[05:08] as an 18-year-old of a robbery involving

[05:11] a firearm.

[05:13] He was subsequently arrested and tried

[05:16] and did time in prison for that

[05:20] that crime.

[05:21] Since that time as an 18-year-old over

[05:24] the past 30-plus years, Mr. Bhag has

[05:28] started a family, he's become a critical

[05:31] member of the community, and he has

[05:33] lived a life without any serious

[05:36] criminal violations since that pardon.

[05:39] >> Well, let's hear more about this guy's

[05:41] record.

[05:43] Because I think the bottom line here is

[05:45] someone who's been in the country

[05:47] illegally should not even not even be

[05:49] eligible for a pardon.

[05:53] So, that's another thing.

[05:56] Um

[05:57] and

[05:58] if you rape a child at 10 years old

[06:05] Let me back up and just say this.

[06:07] What prison was this man sent at?

[06:09] Because someone like him, I'm surprised

[06:10] he's still alive.

[06:12] >> [laughter]

[06:13] >> I don't I don't wish ill on him, but I'm

[06:14] I'm shocked.

[06:16] >> To DHS, he received a deportation order

[06:19] after his conviction, but earlier this

[06:21] month Minnesota's Board of Pardons voted

[06:24] to pardon him. Federal officials say

[06:26] this wipes away his conviction that made

[06:29] him removable and now could help him

[06:31] fight deportation. So, the three-member

[06:34] board includes Governor Tim Walz,

[06:35] Minnesota Attorney General Keith

[06:37] Ellison, and Chief Justice Natalie

[06:40] Hudson.

[06:42] >> I want you to take a good look at that

[06:44] that that photo.

[06:46] That That's your hero right there.

[06:49] That's your A-team.

[06:51] America.

[06:52] These are the people keeping you safe.

[06:57] Well, we already know the problem with

[06:58] Keith Ellison.

[07:01] Tim Walz stolen valor and this woman, I

[07:04] don't even know her like that. She

[07:05] hasn't really been in the news, but

[07:09] you know what, I'll keep my comments to

[07:10] myself. I don't I don't want to get too

[07:11] crazy about this. It is what it is. All

[07:13] right, let's let's let's keep going

[07:15] here.

[07:17] >> DHS blasted the decision saying in part,

[07:21] "Governor Tim Walz's decision to pardon

[07:23] an illegal alien convicted child rapist

[07:26] so he can remain in our country is

[07:28] disgusting. This pardon will take away

[07:31] the child rapist qualifying convictions

[07:33] that made him removable from the United

[07:36] States." Now, we reached out to all

[07:38] three board members including Governor

[07:40] Walz to ask why they decided to pardon

[07:43] this convicted child sex offender. We

[07:46] have not heard back, Bill.

[07:48] >> And you won't hear back. Why why do you

[07:50] think they're going to explain

[07:50] themselves? They won't.

[07:53] Right? They made it very clear who they

[07:56] want to protect. They have made it very

[07:58] clear who they are prioritizing.

[08:01] They made it very clear who they want to

[08:02] put their money into.

[08:05] It ain't me and you.

[08:07] That's for sure.

[08:08] It ain't in that victim.

[08:11] I mean,

[08:12] if I was that victim, I'd find a way to

[08:14] sue.

[08:15] Th- These are damages.

[08:16] I know. May- Maybe that's not

[08:18] going to actually play out in court very

[08:20] well, but you know, I think it's very

[08:22] clear who they care about.

[08:25] And these are actually low-hanging

[08:27] fruits that are self-inflicted in my

[08:29] opinion. Um the governor should have

[08:31] never did this. This is bad optics all

[08:34] around. You even have You don't even

[08:35] have to be in support of mass

[08:37] deportation

[08:38] uh to agree that this is bad optics.

[08:42] It It's just why why do this? What's the

[08:43] hassle for? To stick it to the the Trump

[08:46] administration?

[08:47] >> So, another news that we're not

[08:48] surprised about, Tim Walz pardoned an

[08:51] illegal alien who

[08:53] assaulted a child back in 2005. If I

[08:57] lived on the moon,

[09:00] I would have still seen this coming.

[09:01] It's not surprising. It's egregious,

[09:05] but it's not surprising. This is the

[09:07] same guy who wanted tampons in the boys'

[09:09] bathroom.

[09:10] >> Jazz hands just can't make good

[09:13] decisions to save his life. This illegal

[09:15] alien was also supposed to be deported,

[09:18] but uh

[09:19] yep.

[09:20] >> [snorts]

[09:20] >> Now he can stay here in the comfort of

[09:23] America and uh

[09:26] probably commit more heinous crimes. So,

[09:29] good job, Tim.

[09:30] >> Yeah, good job, Tim. I mean, it

[09:32] shouldn't be a surprise. I mean, Tim

[09:33] Walz is an individual who lied about his

[09:35] rank at retirement, said he was a

[09:37] command sergeant major, which he was not

[09:39] Uh uh at the point of retirement. Was

[09:41] never on his DD-214 or any documents

[09:43] that would prove his service and

[09:45] whatever he qualified for. So, I don't

[09:48] think we should be surprised by this

[09:49] outcome, but it definitely continues to

[09:52] demonstrate

[09:54] that you can't put your faith and your

[09:55] life and your expectations of what you

[09:58] want in this country in the hands of

[10:00] elected representatives, especially

[10:02] someone who has committed stolen valor.

[10:04] I mean, he has a lack of character

[10:06] and didn't even apologize for it, by the

[10:07] way, and

[10:09] uh they they had to do this whole

[10:10] cleanup job and fix the website and try

[10:13] to erase it, but the the bottom line is

[10:15] we know who these people are. We do.

[10:17] And this is why, you know, your local

[10:19] elections matter more than anything

[10:20] else.

[10:22] Uh and so she's spot-on about that.

[10:27] >> [music]

[10:28] >> We will protect our

[10:30] land.

[10:31] This is the

[10:32] DIVORY DARKENSHOW.

[10:39] >> [music]
