My writings are for my daughter Katie.
Her death was preventable like so many others at the hands of reckless open-border and sanctuary policies.
She is dead partly because of horrific policies forced on the public by incompetent, performative, self-serving politicians drunk on ideology and power, with no humility, accountability, or concern for the people forced to live with the consequences.
These politicians are not principled leaders or moral authorities.
These politicians are extreme, hollow politicians elevated far beyond their actual worth.
Reasonable people must reject ideological loyalty from these same thoughtless politicians and demand competence, honesty, and policies grounded in reality.
Katie deserved better. America deserves better.
DOJ must investigate @AliMayorkas and Illinois sanctuary policies with zero guardrails.
@GovPritzker say her name: Katie.
Please take time to read this Townhall piece.
"The Collapse Was Not an Accident":
https://t.co/KaAzrabR6M
Dedicated to the awful Illinois politicians who pushed reckless open-border and sanctuary policies with zero guardrails, while ordinary families are forced to live with the consequences.
Their arrogance, extremism, and political cowardice created real-world devastation for people like my family and my daughter Katie.
They talk ideology. We live the aftermath.
@GovPritzker say her name. Katie.
@SenatorDurbin enough of your words, be done please.
@SenDuckworth waiting for your response.
@Giannoulias Why did Katies killer have a valid DL?
@ILAttyGeneral Do you do anything for the citizens?
@ToniPreckwinkle Boss of Cook County.
ICE officers are taking criminals off the streets like Alfonso Batalla-Garcia, who was convicted of homicide among other horrible crimes.
Under Chicago’s sanctuary city policies, this criminal was roaming freely in the community.

Katie deserved better. This piece is about what happens when ideology replaces responsibility, confrontation replaces governance, and ordinary citizens pay the price.
BREAKING: Minneapolis daycare owner featured in Nick Shirley’s video Fahima Egeh Mahamud, CHARGED with wire fraud and conspiracy for allegedly stealing over $4.6 million through false claims to federal and state programs
These stories are heartbreaking.
As a father who had to bury my youngest child, Katie, it is staggering to watch so many people refuse to reassess reckless policies that operated with no real guardrails or safeguards.
These are preventable tragedies, yet instead of humility or compassion for victims, we get deflection, rationalizations, contextualizing, and silence because each story is treated as an inconvenience to political narratives.
Katie was not an inconvenience. She was beautiful, and she should still be alive today finishing the legacy that was stolen from her.
To use the language of those who defend policies that are ultimately indefensible, Katie was “separated,” “snatched,” “stolen,” and “disappeared.”
But unlike their rhetoric, this was real. She paid with her life.
How many more families have to bury their children before so-called leaders are willing to ask themselves a simple question: Why?
@GovPritzker say her name. Katie.
Katie should still be alive!
Operation Midway Blitz, named in her honor, was to target known criminals.
But Illinois refused to cooperate with ICE by design, forcing agents into the streets instead, which was exactly the point and exactly what Illinois’ one-party leadership wanted.
@GovPritzker showed no consideration for Katie or for the illegal immigrants he coerced to come and break the law under his protection, taxpayer-funded and then neglected under his watch.
Godspeed Mr. Homan, and stay safe.
@GovPritzker, say her name: Katie.
Rep. Cohen pointing to Angel Families in the audience: "I'm sorry for what happened to your loved ones, BUT..."
There is no "but," Rep. Cohen. Your comments here are reprehensible.
I wrote “The Daily Script” on this exact topic.
Read below.
This would all be comical if the deceit behind it was not so dangerous. Katie and others like her matter!
Somebody help me, who is voting for these type of politicians?
The Daily Script:
“Katie was killed by an illegal immigrant—but citizens commit crime too…”
That’s not an argument. It’s a deflection.
Yes, crime exists here. No one disputes that.
But what’s the logic, because we have crime, we should accept more of it?
That prevention doesn’t matter? That enforcement is optional?
We don’t accept preventable harm, we reduce it where we can.
That’s the point.
When a citizen commits a crime, it reflects failures across the system; prevention, deterrence, policing, prosecution, and accountability.
When someone who should not have been here commits a crime, that’s an added policy failure on top of all of that.
Both are true.
Ignoring one to excuse the other isn’t compassion—it’s rationalization.
And rationalization doesn’t protect anyone.
Amazing how the people who helped create the conditions that killed Katie still think anyone should trust their lectures on “compassion” or public safety.
Is this political sociopathy?
@GovPritzker and this "genius", say her name, Katie.
This is Brandon Michael.
He was killed by a twice-deported illegal alien who crashed into his car, killing him.
He was only 21 years old.
Brandon is why I support ICE.
.@GovPritzker your reckless policies helped cost my daughter Katie her life, yet you can never seem to acknowledge families like mine.
Instead it’s always President Trump, political theater, or ideological nonsense while real people here in Illinois are left devastated.
Why is Katie never worth mentioning?
Why is there never any accountability for the policies that failed to protect her?
Why?
.@GovPritzker my daughter Katie was beautiful, she was such an amazing young woman, and yet you stay silent when it comes to acknowledging her.
Acknowledge that she could have been protected and wasn’t.
The United States will not legitimize global compacts that enable mass migration into America or Western nations.
Under President Trump, the State Department will facilitate remigration – not replacement migration.
The Global Compact on Migration claims to support “safe” migration.
For the citizens of Western nations, mass migration was never safe. It introduced new security threats, imposed financial strains, and undermined the cohesion of our societies.
While the United Kingdom faced unprecedented illegal boat crossings, UN agencies condemned plans for deportations.
UN officials lobbied aviation regulators to prevent the deportation of migrants – an appalling violation of the UK’s national sovereignty.
