Saturday night\u2019s shooting of a border agent by an illegal immigrant <\/a>sums up nearly everything wrong with progressive policies \u2014 on the border, crime, New York\u2019s sanctuary-city status and more.<\/p>\n

The 42-year old off-duty Customs and Border Protection officer was sitting in a park with a friend when two armed thugs rolled up on a moped aiming to mug the unsuspecting pair. <\/p>\n

One shot the agent in the face, yet the hero agent somehow managed to fire back.\u00a0<\/p>\n

No surprise: Both suspects turned out to be illegal immigrants <\/a>who slunk in\u00a0during the Biden border rush. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Alleged triggerman Miguel Mora, 21, has a lengthy record of arrests for violent crimes in The Bronx and Massachusetts, and a deportation order back to the Dominican Republic, to boot. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Christhian Aybar-Berroa also has violent-crime rap sheet with an order of removal to the DR.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Aybar-Berroa and Mora were each stopped at the border and then ushered into the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That was the norm for four long years: Joe Biden opened the doors wide and invited any miscreant or predator who made his way to the Mexican border to come in and make himself at home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That was the start of a cascade of policy failures pushed by progressives.<\/p>\n

Start with Biden himself. On the very day he was inaugurated, the new prez fulfilled his campaign promise to halt all deportations for 100 days.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t know exactly how many people crossed the border, or who they are \u2014 but Biden\u2019s border-jumpers clearly number in the millions<\/p>\n

New York state, too,\u00a0played a catastrophic role in helping Mora and Aybar Berroa pursue their perverted \u201cAmerican Dream.\u201d <\/p>\n

Then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Democrats in Albany passed disastrous criminal-justice \u201creforms,\u201d including the elimination of cash bail in 2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Soft-on-crime judges and prosecutors released perps with abandon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

How\u2019d that work out? Failures to appear and rearrests for new crimes rose, predictably.\u00a0Thugs like Mora and Aybar Berroa were often freed minutes after being booked. <\/p>\n

Gov. Kathy Hochul added to the damage by extending a Cuomo-era order that makes New York a \u201csanctuary jurisdiction.\u201d <\/p>\n

State employees are directed not to cooperate with federal immigration officers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The result: New York City has become a haven for illegal immigrants who want to prey on locals. <\/p>\n

Its \u201csanctuary\u201d laws removed ICE from Rikers Island and forbade NYPD and Corrections from handing almost anyone over to the feds.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And remember: New York pols are generally on the side of the criminals; the City Council openly says it designs laws to minimize the \u201cimmigration consequences\u201d for illegal migrants. \u00a0<\/p>\n

And if ICE comes to arrest you, you can count on clowns like city Comptroller Brad Lander to create a scene \u2014 assuming there\u2019s a camera nearby.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem<\/a> got it wrong when she blamed Mayor Eric Adams for the city\u2019s sanctuary-city rules. He\u2019s actually fought to roll them back and has tried to cooperate with ICE officials when legally allowed to.<\/p>\n

But she was 1,000% right in fuming that there\u2019s \u201czero reason\u201d someone \u201cwho is scum of the earth like this should be running loose on the streets of New York City.\u201d <\/p>\n

President Donald Trump has done his bit by closing the border and empowering ICE to deport violent criminal illegal immigrants. <\/p>\n

But progressives have fought him tooth and nail to keep us unsafe, helping create an environment where an innocent border agent gets shot in a park.<\/p>\n
