Federal immigration authorities made a stunning arrest live on television today. Democrat Mayor Carlos Mendez was handcuffed by ICE agents after leading protesters to storm a federal detention facility. The dramatic scene showed leftist activists screaming at officers while agents restored order.
ICE confirmed the mayor organized the mob to block deportations of illegal immigrants convicted of violent crimes. Mendez had previously declared his city a “sanctuary” protecting criminal aliens from federal law. His defiance backfired spectacularly as cameras captured his perp walk.
This is what happens when radical politicians put open borders above public safety. While conservatives support legal immigration, Democrats shield murderers and rapists from justice. Mendez chose criminals over citizens – now he faces obstruction charges himself.
Left-wing pundits immediately blamed ICE for “tyranny,” ignoring the mayor’s lawless attack on federal property. Meanwhile, border states get crushed by drug cartels and human trafficking. Real Americans know which side actually cares about security and rule of law.
ICE agents risk their lives every day to protect our communities. These brave patriots don’t deserve mobs screaming “Abolish ICE” while violent criminals walk free. The Biden administration’s weak border policies created this chaos.
The protest turned violent as agitators smashed windows and threw bricks at police. Over a dozen arrests followed, including illegal immigrants previously released by sanctuary policies. Taxpayers will foot the bill for this preventable destruction.
Democrats keep pushing amnesty and free healthcare for illegals while veterans sleep on streets. Middle-class neighborhoods get flooded with fentanyl. It’s time to elect leaders who put Americans first, not foreign lawbreakers.
This arrest exposes the left’s dangerous agenda. Conservatives must keep fighting to secure the border, support ICE, and jail politicians who aid criminal aliens. Laws matter – and no one should be above them, especially treasonous mayors.
