Tomi Lahren slams 'willfully ignorant' Dana Bash of CNN over immigration questions

Fox News contributor Tomi Lahren resorted to name-calling Dana Bash over the CNN anchor's understanding of "how illegal immigration works."

Lahren, who also hosts a podcast on Outkick.com, took issue with Bash's questioning of Border Czar Tom Homan.

Lahren posted video to social media of Bash, asking, "So, what is happening as we speak is limited to those with criminal records?"

Homan responded, "That's the target of this operation,...But when you release a public safety threat out through a public jail and won't give us access to him, we've got to go to the neighborhood and find him. And we will find him. When we find him, he may be with others. Others that don't have a criminal conviction but are in the country illegally. They will be arrested, too."

"Let me just make sure I understand what you're saying, because at first you said the first targets have criminal records," Bash said. "But, you are also saying, those who are undocumented in the U.S. also, who don't have criminal records -- who are working in their communities, maybe have spouses who are American citizens -- they could be swept up with ICE today as well?"

Homan answered, "What I'm telling you is, when we go find our priority target, which is a criminal alien, if he's with others in the United States illegally, we're going to take enforcement action against him. We're going to force the immigration law."

Lahren apparently took issue with Bash's desire for clarification.

"This willfully ignorant bimbo just doesn’t seem to understand how illegal immigration works, does she?" Lahren posted. "It’s pretty simple, if you’re in this country illegally and ICE finds you, you gone!"

Upon taking office, President Donald Trump signed sweeping executive orders on deportation and border security. And, on Tuesday, the Department of Homeland Security announced that ICE can now go after undocumented people who are at or near so-called sensitive locations, including churches, schools and hospitals.

“Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest. The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement, and instead trusts them to use common sense,” DHS said in a statement announcing the decision Tuesday.
