From the New York Post: Dr. Phil McGraw embedded with US immigration officers during deportation raids Sunday — and ended up quizzing a convicted child-sex-offender who smugly tried to brush off being in the country illegally.
The TV host joined border czar Tom Homan and an ICE crew in Chicago when they took into custody Sam Seda, a Thai national who openly admitted he is not a citizen.
“This is an example of sanctuary cities,” Homan told the TV psychologist as authorities quizzed the cuffed migrant, one of 270 “high-value targets” they were seeking in the Windy City under President Trump’s new deportation policy.
“We’ve got an illegal alien convicted of sex crimes involving children, and he’s walking the streets of Chicago,” Homan said.
Dr. Phil released a video clip as he grilled the handcuffed Thai national, Sam Seda, who admitted that he isn’t a U.S citizen, but claimed his mother is.
When Dr. Phil asked Seda if he’d “been charged with a sex crime involving children”, the man smugly responded, “Not really.”
“No really?” McGraw fired back in disgust, adding, “And you’ve never been deported?”
“Nope!” Seda retorted.
“Let’s take ’em in to process and lock ’em up,” Homan declared.
