Why do Democrats defend violent, criminal illegal immigrants against Trump raids?​

Democrats would rather score political points than keep Americans safe​

Tom Homan is executing crackdown on illegal immigration to 'perfection,' Steve Hilton says​

Wisteguens Jean Quely Charles is a member of a violent Haitian street gang with 17 convictions to his name, including multiple drug, weapons, and assault and battery crimes. Ariel Rene Romice-Patino is a Mexican national who was hit with a 62-month prison sentence for sexual exploitation of a child. Cristofer Alexander Ramirez-Oliva is a Honduran convicted for third-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor.

These three dangerous individuals were in the country illegally and finally apprehended by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as part of President Trump’s targeted raids on violent illegal immigrants. Yet, Democrats are decrying the raids, acting like these criminals are the victims. Why?

Somehow, in the warped world of progressive politics, removing predators from our communities is deemed "controversial." Arresting child rapists, gang members, and drug traffickers has become a rallying cry for Democrats who insist these deportations violate "human rights." You’d think protecting law-abiding families—immigrants and citizens alike—would be common sense. But not when the Democrats get involved.


‘DEPORTATION FLIGHTS HAVE BEGUN’ AS TRUMP SENDS ‘STRONG AND CLEAR MESSAGE,’ WHITE HOUSE SAYS

These raids aren’t targeting hardworking immigrants or struggling parents doing honest labor to build better lives. ICE focused on violent criminals, arresting hundreds across cities like Boston, San Francisco, Seattle, and Chicago. These are places desperately in need of federal help to keep communities safe. Yet the Democrats running these cities — our so-called leaders — are putting up roadblocks

Some Democrats are playing political games and are pushing back against President Donald Trump's deportation raids that are sweeping up violent criminals across the country.

Take Chicago, for instance. Mayor Brandon Johnson has doubled down on the city’s sanctuary policies, actively shielding criminal illegal immigrants from deportation. When ICE arrests gang members and sex offenders, Johnson acts as though the federal agents were the bad guys. Seriously? Does he think a child predator deserves a second chance over the safety of actual children? Or is this just pandering to his activist base, who apparently equate "open borders" with "no consequences" for violent crimes?

Meanwhile, Left-wing media outlets from Politico to the Los Angeles Times eagerly spread fearmongering headlines about ICE "raiding schools" and "traumatizing communities." Local news stories warn of kids too scared to go to school because their families think federal agents will show up at recess. This, of course, is nonsense. ICE explicitly targets criminals, not innocent families dropping kids off at kindergarten.

So why do Democrats pedal these lies? The answer is twofold.

First, by framing all illegal immigrants as innocent victims, Democrats can play the savior. They claim they’re "protecting" these communities from Trump’s "racist" policies, positioning themselves as champions of the oppressed. Never mind that their fearmongering terrifies the very families they pretend to protect. Imagine being an otherwise law-abiding immigrant who hears the lies that ICE is targeting "everyone," all while knowing your neighborhood harbors a gang member ICE could remove. Democrats don’t care about that reality. They care about optics.

Homan is doing a better job in just a few weeks than Harris did in 4 years. And all she did was cackle and laugh.
How could anyone think she should be Commander in Chief of the greatest military and country on the planet?

Indeed.

The importation of illegals for votes scheme by Biden/Harris has failed.

Mr. Homan is a national hero.

I don't think the vote scheme has failed. These anchor babies have (and will) grow up to hate America and vote Democrat. They need removed as well.

The Supreme Court case is iffy but even if they are ruled to be citizens, there aren’t enough of them to matter…hopefully.

They've been coming here for years and dumping their litters in this country. Many are already of voting age.

The cosmic tumblers have moved smoothly into place. The Democrats have been exposed as supporters of violent illegal criminals, gangs, drug dealers, rapists, and murderers.

They oppose the deportation of these illegals and warn them when ICE is coming which puts ICE in danger of an ambush. They protect these violent illegals in their sanctuary cities.

These are not loyal Americans who care about the security of hard working American citizens, their neighbors, who only want their families to be safe and secure in the streets and in their homes.

Not all Americans have long memories but enough do. Those with short memories will be reminded of this ...often.
