Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser dodged questions on whether he supports deporting the family of Boulder terrorist suspect Mohamed Sabry Soliman, saying that it should not be done in a “haphazard” manner.

The White House has said that the wife and five children of Soliman will be deported. Weiser said that expedited removal is a “constitutional procedure,” but claimed that the focus ought to be on “the climate of fear” created by others who have undergone this process without actually being deported.
