Illegal Immigrant with Driver’s License, Thanks to Newsom, Kills Three
On August 12, Harjinder Singh made an illegal U-turn with his semi-truck. Right lane to left, straight through an “official use only” spot on the Florida Turnpike. A minivan with three people inside couldn’t stop in time. Dead at the scene: a 37-year-old woman from Pompano Beach and a 54-year-old man from Miami. The 30-year-old driver? He fought for his life at the hospital but didn’t make it. Three Americans gone. Someone’s parent, spouse, child – just gone.
And here’s the kicker: Singh shouldn’t have been driving that truck. Heck, he shouldn’t have been in the country at all.
Singh crossed our border illegally in September 2018. Border Patrol caught him. He claimed he was scared to go back to India. They processed him for removal. Then – get this – they let him go. Five thousand dollar bond. That’s it.
But wait, it gets worse. California’s Assembly Bill 60 (thank you, Democrats) lets illegal immigrants get driver’s licenses. No questions asked. Well, maybe a few questions, but not the important one: “Are you here legally?” Once they have that license, they can get a Commercial Learner’s Permit. And just like that, someone who shouldn’t even be here is driving an 80,000-pound death machine.
The Department of Homeland Security later called Singh a “significant threat to public safety.” You think? But by then, California had already given him the keys. Literally.
Think this is just California being California? Nope. Washington State started this nonsense back in 1993 with House Bill 1444. They removed the Social Security requirement for licenses. They accept “alternative documents.” (Whatever that means.) Both states found ways to dodge federal rules that are supposed to keep our highways safe.
The federal government says you need to prove legal status to get a Commercial Driver’s License. Makes sense, right? But these states found a loophole. They hand out learner’s permits and temporary licenses like Halloween candy. Safety? That’s someone else’s problem. Until it isn’t.
Singh now faces three counts of vehicular homicide. Mandatory minimum of nine years in prison. After that? Finally, deportation. You know, what should have happened in 2018. Before three Americans died.
Those three victims won’t be coming home. Their families are planning funerals instead of family dinners. All because politicians in Sacramento and Olympia care more about looking compassionate than keeping Americans safe. They sleep soundly in their gated communities while we dodge illegal drivers on the highway.
