Tucker Carlson debated a New Jersey state assemblyman who supports new Gov. Phil Murphy's (D-N.J.) plan to set up an agency to provide legal aid to illegal immigrants.
Carlson said New Jersey is full of underprivileged areas, calling Camden - across from Philadelphia - largely unsafe, and Newark - the state's largest city - home to high schools with a low percent math proficiency.

He said Murphy's top priority is not New Jersey citizens, but instead "people who shouldn't be there." "It's a tragedy in slow motion and everybody knows it."

State Assemblyman John McKeon (D), who represents Whippany and South Orange, said Carlson was mischaracterizing the illegal immigrant population in the state.
McKeon said the 500,000 undocumented residents account for six percent of the state's population and are "not criminals."
"What I'm calling them is not-Americans," Carlson said, reiterating that McKeon and Murphy should concentrate on legal residents: "New Jersey has cities that are crumbling, pathetic and dangerous."
