you know about that, or a scholarship, i would be glad to donate myself. before we go, if you have anything to say, 877-225-8587, we'll see you back here tomorrow night. let not your heart be troubled. laura ingraham is standing by tonight. laura? spewing hate, sean, fantastic show. i am laura, and this is "the ingraham angle." we have a line if do not want to miss. the trump administration is causing democrats to lose their minds again. announcing plans to ask, at 2020 census, how dare they, plus, a beloved figure on the left is revealing what we already know and what we know liberals think about guns and the second amendment, and the pc mob puts one of america's most important historical figures at the top of its target list. but first, the all but forgotten

american tragedy, that is the focus of tonight's "angle" ." when donald trump announced his candidacy, the media reacted with horror to this statement. >> when mexico sends its people, they are not sending their best. they are sending people that have lots of problems, and they are bringing those problems with us. they are bringing drugs. they are bringing crime. they are rapists. and some, i assume, are good people. >> laura: while many, some, at least, quibble with the formulation, they knew what he basically meant. maybe he should have singled out mexico, people from a lot of places are doing us harm. i'll tell you tonight there is continuous and sad evidence to substantiate crimes of -- the underlying crimes. every day there are fresh tragedies to report on.

american citizens brutalized, abused, murdered by illegal aliens, yet most of these stories are buried at the back of the local metro sections in your local paper, and most of them are never heard national news broadcasts. the media are too busy doing, what? capturing every utterance of a few specific porn stars. tonight, we are going to report on a handful of these american tragedies. in san diego, i am mexican illegal alien, after a night of drinking, was charged with running a stop sign and slamming into a family vehicle. a little boy in the backseat of the vehicle suffered serious head trauma and now has cognitive issues. he fled the scene. in addition to being an illegal alien, acosta had been deported 17 times. yes, at 17. oestreich, a judge declared a mistrial in this case because

they couldn't establish if it was he or the illegal alien in the car with him who is actually behind the wheel at the time of the crash. thankfully, he was turned over to federal custody following the trial, but given california's sanctuary state laws, i expect he will find his way back into the golden state. and then this, in fairhope, alabama, on sunday, a twice-deported alien is accused of crashing his truck into a local woman who was on her bike and killed her. he was also drunk. he too fled the scene of the crash. authorities later found him in possession of a stolen gun and believe he has used seven aliases in the past, they are now investigating his criminal history. a law enforcement official and the sister of the victim will join us in just a few moments. and last friday in the suburbs of new orleans, at 2:00 in the

afternoon, this charmer sauntered into a walmart. his name is billy. he allegedly approached a mother and her 2-year-old child with a machete. he told the mother if she didn't listen to his instructions, she and her child would die. he then tried to kidnap the infant. the mother resisted and hid with her baby behind the deli counte counter. he then ran off and attempted to abduct another child from a shopping cart. walmart employees and an off-duty officer ended up tackling him. he is charged with kidnapping, aggravated assault, and an immigration detainer has been placed on him. look, i don't even have time to report on the other crimes that have percolated out there just in the last few days. a traveling pastor, no less, charged just last week with

enticing a 14-year-old girl in virginia to record a sexually explicit of herself. investigators believe this break may have victimized many others. or the guatemalan, twice deported, allegedly raped i teenage girl. he posted bail in february and escaped before i.c.e. could detain him. or the illegal charge of smothering a senior citizen and may be, according to authorities, a serial killer. this only scratches the surface of crimes committed on a daily basis by those who should have never been in this country in the first place. every life lost, every child harmed, every woman abused are victims of not only the criminals who committed those crimes but also of the government that allows criminals to enter this country in the first place. and, frankly, i'm sick of this argument. i don't care what percentage of illegals in the united states

and what percentage doesn't. even one american life lost at the hands of an illegal is too much. it is unacceptable. and contrary to what the media tell us, those who have flouted our laws and the families they drag with them are criminals. the people who cross this country's border are criminals. they are not victims. our policymakers, they are supposed to represent us, and address our needs, not cater to those of illegal immigrants. donald trump understands this, and he is right to step up enforcement across the board. the american workers, american taxpayers, i think are really tired of feeling like second-class citizens in their own country, like they are the interlopers as illegal immigrants to legally demand rights and legal benefits. that dynamic is starting to change because of president trump. we americans and all you hardworking illegal immigrants

out there must demand that lawmakers stop protecting the lawbreakers and start protecting us, and that's the "angle" ." joining me now for reaction is lieutenant brian mcgregor with a police department. he is investigating the attempted kidnapping incident involving an illegal alien with a machete at that walmart that we just told you about. and in alabama, the sister of amy hawkins, who we just told it was allegedly killed by an illegal immigrant, jose luis alonso-de leon, as she was cycling. and baldwin county alabama d.a., who is prosecuting ms. hawkins' alleged killer. let's start with you, this broke my heart to hear this story coming out of alabama. i actually learned about it because one of my radio listeners called in to my show and said a colleague of his is

the actual husband of the victim in this case, and that he was distraught and devastated. i looked it up and indeed this happened. tell us about this case and any more details that you have discovered. >> laura, thank you for having us on tonight, and as for you and your listeners, please pray for amy hawkins' family as they go through this tragic time. it seems that on sunday at about 12:25:00 p.m., amy hawkins was riding her bicycle on one of our roads on the eastern shore near fairhope and daphne, and she was northbound, and the defendant in the case, jose luis alonso-de leon, was heading southbound. he swerved around the car to

pass and struck ms. hawkins, who is riding a bicycle. he did not stop, and continued on, and was found a couple of miles away several minutes late. he was highly intoxicated at that time when he was arrested by law enforcement. they also found a stolen pistol in the vehicle. we then have learned, through checking, that he has at least seven aliases and, according to i.c.e., immigration enforcement, he was deported twice during 2014. it is a tragedy that -- >> laura: should never have happened. this should never have happened. sandy, this is your sister. i cannot imagine what you are going through at this moment, and it sounds hollow to say

that, but i am praying for you and your family and everything that you have gone through, and her two children, her husband, her entire family, you. if this thing could have been vetted and he could've been prevented from coming into this country, whether through a physical barrier or through effective deportation, i mean, your sister would be alive. words don't even convey -- i am furious about these cases, and i am saddened and as devastated as i could be without having known your sister. >> yes, ma'am. she was a beautiful sister. she was a great mother, a great daughter. it is a tragedy. >> laura: knowing that this is an illegal alien with seven aliases. they are trying to track down his criminal history now, and

i'm sure mr. wilters, you'll be doing that, other crimes he could have committed, a stolen , could have very well gone on, if he hasn't already been committing violent acts against other people, and it was your sister's death at his hands that caused his ultimate apprehensio apprehension, and i assume will be put away for a long period of time. further thoughts on the fact that this government was unable to keep them out of the country? >> laura, it's a tragedy. >> laura: sandy? >> go ahead, sandy. >> it is a tragedy. nothing is going to replace my sister. i don't have the answers to that. i loved her. and, yes, he should have been deported. somehow. we have to figure out a way that he wasn't able to drive a

vehicle, that he wasn't able to drive drunk. i don't have the answers to that right now. i know my family is hurting over the whole situation. >> laura: let's talk to lieutenant mcgregor. the reason i wanted to bring these stories to the american people's attention tonight, lieutenant mcgregor, these aren't just names on a piece of paper, these americans are personally devastated by this type of crime, and we almost had another situation unfold in kenner, louisiana, about 6 miles from new orleans, and one of our contributors here from new orleans, he brought this to my attention, got a guy with a machete in a walmart trying to kidnap a little 2-year-old. he goes on to try to kidnap someone else, another person, and he should have been in this country. this is madness. lieutenant? lieutenant mcgregor, your

thoughts about this case now as it stands? how did he get into this country? he was deported twice, at least, we understand? >> there are still things we are looking into. we know on friday at 2:00 p.m., he entered walmart through the garden center and approach the deli section of the store. he engaged a female that had a 2-year-old in a grocery cart and he threatened that female. he also threatened the life of the child as well and he also put his hand on his side to indicate that he had a machete on his side. that female asked for help. he reached to grab that child and, like any mother would, she fought for her child and grabbed the child from the cart and proceeded to get that child on the other side of that deli counter. some walmart employees as well as citizens and everybody else that engage the suspect, he ran back to the meat and poultry section of the store.

he drew the machete. he swung it at employees who create a distance, which allowed him to get back into the deli section where another mother who was coming through with eight infants strapped to the grocery cart, he tried to grab that child while he was still holding the machete. like any other mother would, she fought for her child as well. an employee that was there, and a police officer that was off duty, to engage the suspect, got him down on the ground, handcuffed him, took him into custody. >> laura: that's great. those walmart employees and the off-duty officer tackled him, ultimately walking into a walmart with a machete. lieutenant mcgregor, you also worked on a case three years ago, as i seem to recall, involving eight -- i think it was a herman rivera who raped a 10-year-old girl? was that you on that case?

>> i have had many cases. we just finished up a murder with a dismemberment. if you look on the news, it was just recently reported that we have a conviction of second-degree murder in addition to obstruction of justice, a murder that happened here in kenner where a individual's body was cut up and dismembered and thrown into st. john's paris pa. >> laura: it's a very safe community, for the most part, very safe retention, keeping the community safe, and the community in alabama we are talking about, also a very safe community. but new orleans itself is a sanctuary city, correct? and you have bleed through from new orleans into your community? you've got people worried about tearing down statues in the middle of the night, but meanwhile, worried about making their way into the community.

i want to ask both of you, law enforcement, how important is that for local authorities to cooperate with the federal government on this immigration issue and to get these people imprisoned and then out of the country. we'll go back to you, mr. wilters. >> well, it's very important, laura. and in the last year, there has been tremendous cooperation between local law enforcement and immigration authorities where, for eight years, we didn't have it. having the knowledge that we can contact i.c.e. and that i.c.e. will actually come in and place a detainer on an illegal immigrant helps us tremendously. there are still some markings and at that have to be worked out, but the cooperation we've had in the last year has just been tremendous. >> laura: well, we have entire communities in the united states that are refusing to cooperate.

the entire state of california refusing to cooperate, endangering the lives of californians, individuals in the country illegally, violent criminals are released, they go on, and they create more havoc for the american people and illegal immigrants. i want to close with sandy. sandy, if you could say anything to, you know, immigration officials, the government, given the fact that you have lost your sister just a few days ago, out for a beautiful bike ride on a beautiful day, she should be here enjoying her family tonight. she was an incredible person. as an american citizen, what would you say? >> let's figure a way out to fix the system. we need to fix the system. so that these type of tragedies don't happen to other families. >> laura: sandy, god bless you. thank you for coming on the show tonight. i know it was really hard, and i

know our viewers really are praying for you and your family, and thank you. thank all of you. law enforcement, d8s, you guys have a lot of hard work to do across this country, and you guys don't get that much recognition. i know you're not looking at it, but we appreciate you and thank you all very much, and god bless your family, sandy. another day, another lawsuit by california. now why are they suing the trump administration? this is all connected, my friends. it has to do with citizenship. be prepared to be outraged next. go to the pharmacy counter for powerful claritin-d. while the leading allergy spray relieves 6 symptoms... claritin-d relieves 8, including sinus congestion and pressure. claritin-d relieves more.

>> laura: the trump administration announced last night that the 2020 u.s. census will include a question about citizenship. makes sense, right? it seems perfectly reasonable for the u.s. government to want to know how many citizens live in this country. here is how far left immigration and the nomadic activists reacted. speak with the trump administration is trying to do is to weaponize the senses so that they can use it to undercounter people in california and other states with high immigrant populations. >> the federal government, including president trump, has to justify what he would be weakening any type of census count or census standards.

>> it is very clear what this administration is trying to do. they are trying to instill fear in the immigrant community. >> laura: i love the comment about the rule of law. that's rich. naturally, the california department of justice filed a lawsuit against the trump administration. it is at least the 27th time the golden state has sued the trump administration, including overt daca, the travel ban, the board of all, pretty much any time the trump administration burps they get a lawsuit. to debate this is california congressman fred sherman, who is a democrat, congressman, first of all, i want to say, thank you for joining us. we invite democrats on pretty much every night and most decline. thank you very much. we love having a spirited conversation about this issue. here's my first question. >> laura, it's good to be with you. but first i need to correct the beginning of your show. >> laura: oh, i love -- no, we're not correcting that. i want to focus on this first.

you can worry about correcting me later. let's keep us focused on citizenship. why are democrats afraid of the u.s. government determining how many illegal immigrants are in the united states? speak up first of all, this census question has nothing to do with how many illegal immigrants are in the united states. they don't ask whether you are an illegal immigrant. it's whether you are an immigrant. second, we want to know so there is no attempt to determine that. >> laura: we want to know who is a citizen -- >> and the purpose of this is clear. the purpose of this is to suppress not only immigrants from responding but anybody who has got a cousin who is an immigrant. the studies have shown, from the census departments last year, under trump administration, that this question will depress responses. this is a two-part approach. first create a credible incredr

in immigrant communities, castigate them, call them rapists and murders. >> laura: are you defending the criminals that i talked about? is that what you are doing? defending the abusers, the fentanyl traffickers? i will debate that morning, noon, and night, let's do an hour on el gordo, let's talk about el gordo. i mean, honestly. democrats just lose the american people. you are more worried about illegal immigrants than the legal residents of your own communities, time and again, and now you don't want us to know -- >> laura, any chance i could get a word in edge wise? >> laura: and that's another tactic. yes, you can, but don't start coming on the show and say, i'm going to correct what you said in the first segment. what i said was factual. we have a criminal alien problem, and your state as a sanctuary disaster. that's a problem. go ahead.

>> [sighs] laura, you came on, and you showed the president saying that most immigrants, especially from mexico are rapists and murderers. >> laura: he didn't say that. you tell me where he said "most." you tell me where he said "most." >> he said they are rapists and murderers. his first category rapists, the second category murderers, and then a footnote to indicate that if you were a good people. that is what the president said. what did the beginning of your show say? you put up a picture after picture of terrible criminals who happen to be people of color. now, why don't you -- >> laura: you don't want the truth. >> no, i -- laura, any chance i can get a word in edge wise? >> laura: like a valedictorian rescuing a puppy or a cat from a tree, that's your story. my story is the american victims

who you and so many democrats never pay attention to, and of course there are good people who are -- >> laura, why do you invite me on the show if i'm not allowed to say anything? laura, any chance -- >> laura: go ahead. >> the falsehood is that immigrants are disproportionately -- 11 million people in this country without documents, and you are showing pictures of some more terrible criminals. >> laura: how do you know how many? >> we have pretty good estimates. you can't certainly send out a questionnaire and find out how many immigrants there are without documents in this country. >> laura: how do we get it? >> we have very good estimators. we have -- look, you're talking about a country that has an intelligence worldwide. we certainly can come relatively close to determining how many there are. and, lo, you want to say 10 to 12, go right ahead.

i'm saying 11, you say 10 to 12 -- can i get a word in edge wise here? spin we don't know how many, that's one of the points. >> we certainly can find out through the senses. the purpose of the census question is to destroy the census, getting people to ignore the fact that crime is committed by all groups >> laura: we need more crime postmarked that such a bad argument. >> every 10 million people -- look, you have more crime in california than wyoming because you have more people in california than in wyoming. every group of 10 million people -- coat >> laura: going to tell the american people tonight that because of that, we have to sacrifice a certain number of

americans for this utopian idea that borders are pointless, that walls are bad, that the rule of law, when applied to a family crossing the border, you can't support them -- >> any chance i could get a word in? >> laura: i just think it's not a great argument. we want law and order -- >> laura, why do you even need me on the show? it's your show, you can just talk. the fact is, if you want less crime, moved to the cayman islands. got so few people there that you can go a whole week without the violent crime. >> laura: is that your argument? >> immigrants or any group of people -- if you're going to have people in this country -- 's spoon illegal in this country. >> every group commits some crime, and if you had to -- any chance i could get a word in here? then have fewer people. >> laura: there is a difference between illegal and legal. do you not know the difference? does it matter?

>> any chance i can get a word in? the fact is -- >> laura: you can talk during a pause. the census asks questions about citizen status, has it not? >> that's not true, they stopped in 1950. they stopped about the time i was 4 years old and before you were born. >> laura: and then the american family survey -- >> it is not used as the official enumeration. the enumeration of this country is constitutionally required, and getting an accurate count and enumeration is more important, is constitutionally more important than having facts about how many bedrooms there are and how many bathrooms are in every house. that would be given secondary priority two. >> laura: it so so you illegal immigrants should be accounting for the apportionment of the

number of legislatures -- >> the constitution says that. felons can't vote. they have to be counted. >> laura: right, so you are saying illegal immigrants are citizens when it comes to the apportionment clause. there is a debate about that in legal circles. >> the constitution says that. the supreme court says that. the avid case reached that conclusion. and if you want to reverse that, fine. try to pass a constitutional amendment. try to reverse the decision. don't pollute the census in an effort to achieve constitutional results that you can't achieve through the courts. >> laura: you have to respond to the senses, so people aren't going to respond, it's another reason they are breaking the law. >> you don't have enough money to get everybody to respond to the census. they are deliberately underfunding the census and can't get people to respond to the questionnaires. >> laura: we will have you back and i appreciate you

attorney leo terrel and, and washington, horace cooper, cochairman of project 21. all right, leo, let's go right to you on this. it seems like zinke is being offered on the altar of political correctness here. i think i know what he said, he said, look, if you hire the best people, of course you're going to get a diverse workplace. we think everybody from every background, they have merit, they will be hired. we do a pretty good job of that. and yet, it became a lightning rod that basically, zinke is racist. if you look through all the verbiage, zinke is racist. >> i'm glad you are a lawyer, because that is the conclusion he makes. we don't need to were about diversity, look at the facts. laura, this is an administration that does not have people of color. if you're going to have diversity, show me some people of color. in this administration, i don't see it. if he has the best and

brightest, why does he have to say, we don't have to worry about diversity. i would submit to you, laura, show me some data, i'll keep my big mouth shut. but for him to make a statement like that in this administration and you know as well as i do, lawyer to lawyer, this administration does not have a colin powell or condoleezza rice. i don't see color in this administration. >> laura: ben carson, i guess, doesn't count, because he is white. >> oh, please? we're going to play that one token game? spin by the way, when justin thomas was put on the court, he didn't count, let's not pretend that conservative african-americans count for diversity. they are ridiculed as uncle toms and everything else. i have heard that game. >> it's not a game. i'm talking about one. >> it's not clear the statement was ever made. secondly -- >> it was made. >> the people that he has put in place are very, very talented

individuals. black people -- >> you don't know that. >> absolutely. >> give me some names. >> the bureau of reclamation, first, a woman named their -- who? >> the puerto rican -- >> one. >> they named a native american as one of their -- there are a plethora of individuals who were named because they were talented, and it turned out -- >> laura, laura, laura, can i talk to you as a lawyer? give me some data. you just may meet more than one. give me some information. laura, you know there are no people of color in this administration. >> laura: i have something for you, department of interior, this is the employee diversity, american, indian, alaskan, native, the hispanic, 6.2%,

black, 5.6%, federal workforce -- >> can i submit to your -- >> laura: can i keep going for a second, leo? you asked for some data, federal workforce, here it is, black, 18.4%, white, 62.6%, american indian, 1.6%, asian, 5.8%, hispanic, 8.6%. hold on, one second. >> here is the point, laura. i like those numbers. you know why? because the white number is disproportionately higher than the actual numbers. >> laura: that is what we are getting at. >> laura, come on. this administration does not have people of color. >> those numbers were obama administration numbers, leo. tricked ya. >> i decided to look at this too. one of the things we should know is that black americans are

overrepresented in the federal government including the present federal government -- >> in what position? in what position? >> what? >> and what position? >> all across, the department of interior. >> i need to see some more minority people -- >> the federal government put these numbers out, and we do them every two years, but we also know that the federal government employees get paid almost 20% more, so here is the the -- >> can i just say this? it hurts me, it hurts me to hear this man -- thank you. it hurts me for this man, the same skin color, to deny the fact that there are nof color in positions of decision-making, you know there are no people of color in those levels. stop doing that to us, you are hurting us. >> that is not true.

>> laura: i used to work in the government, they are the ones who do the real policy, leo. >> these divisions are dividing america, and this is one of the reasons it's not doing well. >> laura: i want to be a color-blind society. >> me too, laura. >> laura: people from all backgrounds. we are in this color corded representation, and the end, that is going to make more people miserable and angry at each other, in my opinion. great segment from both of you. an icon on the left is exposing how liberals really feel about the second amendment. could we have anymore hot button issues on the show tonight? don't go away. here you go little guy.

want to make a 97-year-old former supreme court justice and a bunch of 18-year-old kids into the bogeyman. justice stevens actually made reasonable arguments. he said, look at the original intent of what the second amendment was supposed to be. heller in 2008 change that. you know that hell are fundamentally changed it. i think the justice -- >> laura: were not going to get into the legal issue, but justice scalia confirmed what we know, kind of meaningful use that it's not an individual right, be affirmed that the second amendment, it was an individual right. monica, this is what a lot of us believed all along, that the left wanted to go for the guns, they wanted to take the second amendment, now with john paul stevens, amazing that he's writing these op-ed said 97, but he writes this piece in "the new york times" that brett stevens, the big never-trumper,

it basically the same thing, that they should demand this, so we are being hit on all sides. supreme court justice and vaunted editorial writer. >> laura, we know the left has been at war with the constitution, and now we have hard evidence that they would like to rip up the bill of rights. they have long been attacking the first amendment, and now they are ratcheting up their attacks on the second amendment. there is a reason why the founding fathers made those two sets of rights a one-two punch, because there is no guarantee of the first amendment without the second amendment, and they left, and maybe some others from ideological parts of the countr country, starting to make this argument. this is extremely dangerous. but i will say this, that justice stevens actually did us a favor, now no longer does the left have to pretend that they are interested in protecting the second amendment. now the truth is right out there
