A sitting member of Congress just told the world she cares more about Guatemala than America. Representative Delia Ramirez shocked Americans when she declared her Guatemalan identity comes before her American one during a recent trip to Mexico City. This is the same woman we elected to represent American interests in Washington.
Ramirez represents Illinois voters, but her heart clearly lies elsewhere. She was born in Chicago to illegal immigrant parents and has built her entire political career around helping foreign nationals instead of American citizens. Her husband is a former DACA recipient, which explains where her true loyalties lie.
Social media exploded with outrage after her comments went viral. Hardworking Americans demanded answers about why their own representative puts a foreign country first. Many called for her deportation, though she cannot be deported since she was born here.
This is exactly what’s wrong with today’s Democrat Party. They care more about illegal aliens and foreign countries than the Americans who elected them. Ramirez has spent her career fighting for so-called Dreamers while American families struggle with rising costs and crime.
When confronted about her shocking statement, Ramirez doubled down instead of apologizing. She claimed she’s both Guatemalan and American, refusing to put America first. This shows she learned nothing from the backlash and doesn’t understand what it means to serve this great nation.
Every member of Congress takes an oath to defend America and our Constitution. How can Ramirez keep that promise when she openly admits Guatemala comes first in her heart? American voters deserve representatives who bleed red, white, and blue, not green and white.
This controversy reveals the broader problem with progressive politicians today. They view America as just another country instead of the greatest nation on Earth. They push open borders and amnesty while ignoring the needs of legal citizens who pay their salaries.
Americans are fed up with politicians who put foreign interests ahead of our own. We need leaders who wake up every day thinking about how to make America stronger, not how to help other countries. Ramirez has shown she’s not fit to represent American interests in Congress.
