NC State Radio Voice Yanked Off The Air After Referencing ‘Illegal Aliens’ At The Southern Border

NC State radio broadcaster Gary Hahn was suspended indefinitely late this week after he mentioned “illegal aliens” during the Wolfpack’s bowl game against Maryland.

The two teams squared off in the Mayo Bowl in Charlotte, North Carolina, Friday with the Terrapins beating the Wolfpack 16-12.

Hahn made the remarks while updating fans on the score of the Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas.

“Down among all the illegal aliens in El Paso, it’s UCLA 14 and Pittsburgh 6,” Hahn said.

Learfield Communications, the NC State broadcast rights holder, told ESPN: “LEARFIELD has suspended Wolfpack Sports Network Play-by-Play announcer Gary Hahn from his agreement indefinitely following comments made during today’s Duke’s Mayo Bowl radio broadcast.”

The term “illegal alien” is the correct legal term for a person who is unlawfully present in the United States.

El Paso, which sits on the U.S.-Mexico, has been flooded with illegal aliens throughout the Biden administration as the administration’s policies have been widely blamed for the crisis on the southern border.

The Texas National Guard sent a huge number of troops to El Paso last week to guard the border from the massive influx of illegal immigrants that are expected to surge there.

On December 17, Democratic El Paso Mayor Oscar Leeser declared a state of emergency, noting that “beginning in late August 2022, the El Paso sector experienced a surge of over 2,000 migrants presenting themselves daily to CPB,” adding, “the number of migrants released into the community continues to grow.”

Leeser also warned that an estimated 20,000 migrants in Ciudad Juárez were readying their move across the southern border.

Meanwhile, El Paso City Manager Mario D’Agostino confirmed videos of illegal immigrants climbing through manholes, then running across the border.

Appearing on ABC News’ “This Week” on December 18th, Texas GOP Governor Greg Abbott stated bluntly, “If the courts don’t intervene and put a halt of removal to the Title 42 it’s going to be total chaos.

“There are people across the globe who have a valid, a solid reason to come to the United States, but they can do so legally right now.” Abbott declared. “The people who have the ability to come to the United States illegally get pushed further and further and further back the line every single day with the thousands of illegal immigrants coming across the border.”

“Under state law, the governor has called forth the militia to protect the Texas citizens and in that he has given us arrest authority,” Major General Tom Selzer of the National Guard added.
