CNN commentator Scott Jennings exposed the extreme open-borders stance of Democrats by cornering Tennessee congressional candidate Justin Pearson, who squirmed and evaded simple questions about deporting violent criminal illegals – revealing the party’s reluctance to protect American citizens from threats unleashed by Biden’s lax policies.
This on-air dismantling highlights how leftists prioritize “undocumented” migrants over victims of their crimes.
Jennings pressed Pearson during the heated exchange on CNN’s NewsNight, asking “Is there a single illegal alien you’d deport?!”
No deportations of illegal immigrants is the official Democrat position.

Pearson hesitated and then stuttered “You know…”
Jennings pressed: “Is there ONE? NO? Is this the 2026 Democrat position?!”
“Do they need to deport illegal aliens?” Jennings continued, adding “Can you say it? CAN YOU SAY IT?”
“Do we need an agency to deport illegal aliens. YES OR NO?” Jennings further queried.
Pearson’s refusal to answer directly laid bare the Democrats’ default position: no deportations for anyone, even those who have murdered Americans or committed heinous crimes like child rape.
Pearson argued that the Democratic position in 2026 is that “we don’t terrorize U.S. citizens and undocumented people.” He emphasized a religious and moral responsibility to “protect the foreigner” and care for neighbors, framing the current administration’s actions as an abuse of power.
This comes amid Trump’s aggressive enforcement through ICE, including the successful Operation Metro Surge that removed over 12,000 criminal illegals from U.S. streets.
Yet Democrats like Pearson echo the radical activism seen just days earlier in Minnesota, where a leftist woman stalked and abused ICE agents tracking a child rapist and murderer illegal, brazenly declaring she “doesn’t care” about the victims.
As we reported, Olivia Jensen’s interference exemplified how open-borders zealots thwart deportations, even for monsters preying on kids – a pattern fueled by Democrat rhetoric that endangers communities.
Replies to the clip underscored the outrage, with one user noting, “Surprised CNN still pays Scott Jennings. He’s single handingly destroying Democratic gaslighting.”
Another called Pearson a “DEI candidate who gets cornered in his own low IQ talking points.”
“Democrats say it in public now: They don’t want to deport illegal aliens. They need them for their census counts and to give them amnesty so they can vote for democrats,” observed another.
“But he has a big afro, so you shouldn’t question him. That’s racist,” mocked a further reply.
“Jennings took down Temu H. Rap Brown,” added a user, referencing Pearson’s appearance.
These reactions reflect growing public frustration with Democrats’ soft-on-crime immigration stance, as polls show overwhelming support for mass deportations and cooperation with ICE.
