Kamala Harris faced backlash after selecting Alexander Izaguirre for a jobs program, unaware of his extensive criminal background. His later violence against a woman highlighted failures in the system. In response, Harris revised the program to exclude undocumented migrants, yet the implications of sanctuary policies lingered.

Meanwhile, in Ireland, protests erupted against housing asylum seekers, labeled "out of control" by citizens. Sinn Féin urged stricter immigration policies, while Taoiseach Harris condemned the protests as thuggery. Critics stressed the government's "no cap" approach to asylum seekers had led to unrest, emphasizing that citizens deserve a voice in local decisions. The discontent reflected a growing frustration with politicians who seemed disconnected from the people's needs.
