When you see or hear a politician do or say something so antithetical to the interests of the people they’re supposed to serve, you begin to wonder, ‘Who does this person work for? The American people or some other ‘foreign’ interest that they’re not telling us about?’
On Wednesday, and many other days if we’re being honest, that person was and is Rep. Dan Goldman (D-N.Y.).
Goldman took to X to instruct illegal immigrants — criminal invaders, if you will — on how to deal with authorities and possibly evade deportation.
Oh, and did I mention he did it three times? Once in English, once in Spanish, and once — and I couldn’t make this up if I tried — in Chinese.
You can click on the links above for each separate instance, but below, you’ll see screenshots of the multilingual advice Goldman gave people who have no business in this country, just in case he deletes these posts for whatever reason:
And just so you have what he actually said, in full, here’s one of the versions to witness it for yourselves:
Every New Yorker has rights when they interact with immigration enforcement.

The heir to Levi’s fortune certainly has some stones to do what he’s done, even though he’s not the only one in Congress to do so. Goldman seems to be the only one to do it three times in three different languages.

Some might ask whether what Goldman’s doing is legal. And there’s some question about that. But, on Wednesday evening’s edition of the “Timcast IRL” podcast, host Tim Pool brought up a legal statute that could possibly put Goldman in questionable legal waters.
Pool brought up the “Encouraging/Inducing” section of Title 8, U.S.C. 1324 (a) Offenses directly from the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) website.
The aforementioned section states the following:
“Encouraging/Inducing -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv) makes it an offense for any person who -- encourages or induces an alien to come to, enter, or reside in the United States, knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such coming to, entry, or residence is or will be in violation of law.”
Pool then gave his interpretation of what this means for members of Congress engaged in aiding illegal immigrants evade the law.
“In other words, Rep. Dan Goldman, AOC, Ilhan Omar, many other Democrats are quite literally violating a federal law, which has a penalty for inducement of up to five years in prison,” Pool said. “So um, I really doubt the DOJ’s going to come after these people and put them in prison, but they’re quite frankly breaking federal law by doing this.”
Pool then immediately posed a question to the panel and the viewing audience that should be at least debated.
“What happens if we don’t enforce this law, and we tell Democrats — as a large political class — you can break it?” Pool posited.
Good question. What do you do? Go.
