Democratic lawmakers took time this week to visit two detained activists accused of supporting Hamas terror groups. Instead of focusing on American priorities, these politicians chose to stand with radicals who celebrated the murder of Israeli civilians. This shameful display shows where the radical left’s loyalties truly lie.
Massachusetts Democrats Ed Markey, Ayanna Pressley, and others traveled to Louisiana detention centers to meet Mahmoud Khalil and Rümeysa Öztürk. Both detainees have ties to anti-Israel mobs that disrupted campuses and cities. While hardworking Americans struggle with inflation, these elites waste taxpayer money defending Hamas sympathizers.
The activists were moved to Louisiana for a reason – their cases now face tough scrutiny in America’s most conservative federal court circuit. Democrats know their radical friends won’t get special treatment there. This is a desperate attempt to bypass justice and protect extremists who threaten our allies.
Lawmakers wept over “trauma bonds” between detainees while ignoring real victims. Hamas butchered over 1,400 Israelis in their October 7 massacre. Where were these tears for murdered grandmothers and burned babies? The left cares more about anti-Semitic agitators than innocent lives.
Rep. Pressley claims the detainees are “afraid,” but what about Jewish students facing campus violence? While these politicians coddle terrorists, Jewish kids hide in library basements from pro-Hamas mobs. The Democrats’ priorities are backwards and dangerous.
This isn’t about compassion – it’s about pushing a pro-terror agenda. The same lawmakers want open borders and weaker immigration enforcement. Now they’re fighting to free radicals who threaten national security. Americans see through this charade.
President Trump’s administration continues cracking down on lawlessness, from Harvard’s corruption to border security. Meanwhile, Democrats partner with media to paint criminals as victims. They’d rather defend foreign extremists than protect U.S. citizens.
True patriots stand with Israel and condemn terrorism. These disgraceful detention center visits prove the left has abandoned common sense and morality. November can’t come soon enough to vote out this anti-American madness.
