In a truly appalling recent event, a Royal Caribbean cruise ship became the scene of a crime as two men reportedly molested a minor in a sauna room. Additionally, one of these men has been accused of failing to disclose his HIV infection during a sexual encounter. These incidents not only highlight serious criminal behavior but also raise alarms about how such individuals managed to remain in the country illegally, as ICE detainers were placed on both men. Yet, instead of focusing on addressing this pressing issue, some political figures seem more interested in distracting from the real problem.
Enter Congresswoman Maxine Waters, who took her weekend at a protest to suggest we deport the First Lady, Melania Trump. Now, isn’t that just rich? While serious criminal issues need attention, Waters appears to be more concerned with hurling insults at the Trump family. For the record, Melania has been a U.S. citizen since 2006, and her parents followed suit in 2018. Clearly, facts weren’t on Waters’ agenda. Instead, her comments reflect a persistent pattern of vitriol towards anything remotely connected to Donald Trump.
On another front, the state of Massachusetts has been criticized over a troubling decision to release nine illegal alien child rapists back into the community, despite ICE’s efforts to keep them detained. It seems like some officials forgot which side of the law they’re supposed to be on, especially when it comes to protecting innocent children. But this isn’t a rare occurrence; it’s part of a bigger pattern where dangerous individuals come in, and some states just don’t seem to care enough to keep them out.
In parallel, the Trump administration’s strong stance on deporting known criminals and terrorists has been met with a deluge of criticism from bafflesome corners of the judicial system. President Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act to swiftly remove gang members and other known threats from the country. Yet, a judge deemed it necessary to halt the deportation of two plane loads of dangerous individuals out of thin air, mandating they return to the U.S. Apparently, common sense took a vacation that day.
As the legal back-and-forth continues, it becomes increasingly clear that some people would rather play politics than address the actual issues at hand. The Supreme Court has long upheld the validity of the Alien Enemies Act, and yet activists still work to grind the wheels of justice to a standstill. It’s time for a wake-up call, focusing on removing criminals and protecting law-abiding citizens. The Trump administration pledges robust action against these threats, pledges to safeguard America, no matter how many roadblocks activist judges and misguided politicians put up.
