UMVA has learned that a dramatic confrontation unfolded during a House hearing on Tuesday, leaving a leftist witness speechless with a single, piercing question.
The hearing, titled "Amnesty and Chaos: Abuse of U.S. Immigration Policy," was held by the House Oversight Committee Task Force on Defending Constitutional Rights and Exposing Institutional Abuses Subcommittee. Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX), the Task Force Chairman, delivered a scathing opening statement, exposing how radical left groups have exploited frivolous lawsuits to cripple legitimate U.S. immigration enforcement.
Chris Newman, General Counsel and Legal Director for the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON), appeared as a fervent apologist for violent illegal aliens and leftist groups tearing America apart. He relentlessly bashed the Trump Administration's commonsense immigration policies, which have yielded the most secure Southern border in American history.
Rep. Gill had had enough of Newman's rhetoric and posed a straightforward question: "Is it a good thing that President Trump secured the border?" The room fell silent as Newman struggled to respond, sitting mute for nearly 10 seconds.
When Newman finally attempted to deflect the question, Gill cut him off, rephrasing the inquiry. Newman's response was an astonishing claim that the border had been secure even under the Biden administration – a statement so outlandish that even Democrats know it's a fabrication.
The tense exchange was captured on video, showcasing Newman's awkward silence and flailing attempts to justify his stance. Gill's pointed question left the witness flummoxed, unable to articulate a coherent response.
Sources have confirmed to UMVA that the video of the exchange has sparked widespread attention, highlighting the growing divide over U.S. immigration policy and the tactics employed by radical left groups.
