Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is calling out sanctuary states for purportedly allowing illegal immigrants to get commercial driver’s licenses, warning that untrained drivers are turning 18-wheelers into “weapons.”
Noem singled out California Gov. Gavin Newsom after three people were killed on Oct. 21 in a crash involving an illegal immigrant truck driver.
“He is handing out driver’s licenses to people with no documentation. Some of these individuals aren’t even giving a name,” Noem said Thursday on “America Reports.”
The secretary said they’ve uncovered driver’s licenses that read “no name given” that were used to get commercial driver’s licenses.
“Gov. Newsom needs to understand that saving lives is the number-one priority,” she said.
Both Noem and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy have accused Newsom of enabling immigrants in the country illegally to obtain commercial licenses.
Their renewed scrutiny of the issue comes after the Oct. 21 crash on a Southern California freeway, where 21-year-old Indian national Jashanpreet Singh allegedly drove a semi-truck while under the influence, triggering a multi-car pileup that resulted in three fatalities.
“We’re really seeing and peeling back the onion on who is allowing these dangerous individuals to get on our roads and get behind 18-wheelers that turn into weapons when they don’t know how to use them, they don’t know how to operate them, and they can’t speak our language or interpret our laws,” she added. --->READ MORE HERE

DHS secretary targets California governor after fatal crash involving illegal immigrant driver
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is calling out sanctuary states for purportedly allowing illegal immigrants to get commercial driver’s licenses, warning that untrained drivers are turning 18-wheelers into "weapons."

Both Noem and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy have accused Newsom of enabling immigrants in the country illegally to obtain commercial licenses.
Far too many innocent Americans have been killed by illegal aliens driving semi-trucks and big rigs. And yet, sanctuary states around the country have been issuing illegal aliens commercial driver’s licenses.
