I sure hope this turns into a FAFO moment for New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy.
Seems like he blatantly said he'll harbor an illegal alien in his garage and is now. Then he walked it back a bit, as expected.
"President Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, having been alerted to New Jersey Democrat governor Phil Murphy admitting he had an immigrant who lacked full documentation residing in his home and daring the federal government to “try and get her,” indicated he would seek to prosecute Murphy if he was knowingly harboring an illegal immigrant.
"Speaking at a public event with “Blue Wave New Jersey,” Murphy bragged that New Jersey was “the lead state in challenging birthright citizenship.” Later, he said defiantly, “There is someone in our broader universe whose immigration status is not yet at the point that they are trying to get it to and we said, ‘You know what? Let’s have her live at our house above our garage’ and good luck to the feds coming in to try to get her.”

"A video shows Gov. Phil Murphy (D-N.J.) appearing to suggest that he is hiding an illegal immigrant at his home in a direct challenge to President Donald Trump’s administration. The governor’s comments quickly led Trump’s border czar, Thomas Homan, to threaten prosecution against the Democrat leader.
"According to The Daily Wire, during an interview at a “Blue Wave New Jersey” event over the weekend, Murphy claimed that New Jersey has been “the lead state in challenging birthright citizenship” following New Jersey Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin’s effort to challenge Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants in the United States."

"Gov. Phil Murphy (D-NJ) Thursday tried to walk back comments that he was housing an immigrant who might be in the United States illegally and daring federal officials to remove her.
"“Tammy and I were talking about — I don’t want to get into too much detail, but there is someone in our broader universe whose immigration status is not yet at the point that they are trying to get it to,” Murphy told Blue Wave New Jersey. “And we said, ‘You know what? Let's have her live at our house above our garage.’ And good luck to the feds coming in to try to get her.”"
