Trump’s mass deportation agents actually detained an U.S. military veteran in New Jersey
In a turn of events that will shock anyone who has never read a history book, Donald TrumpA dramatic immigration campaign that actually targets innocent people.
like per ReutersOn January 23, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents raided a business in Newark, New Jersey, detaining both undocumented immigrants and fully compensated U.S. citizens. They entered the building without a warrant and rounded up several workers, in a move described by Newark Mayor Ras Barca as violating the constitutional rights of those detained. He added, “Newark will not stand by while people are illegally intimidated.”
The businesses raided by ICE agents were not named by the organization or the paraca, but the politician confirmed that one of those arrested was “an American military veteran who suffered the indignity of having the legitimacy of his military documents.”
Ice agents are known for their Vicious cruelty, racism and general disregard for America’s lawsso this haphazard and legally common approach to finding illegal immigrants is not a big surprise. Undoubtedly the agency’s worst tendencies were drawn out by the recent election of sexual assaulter Donal Executive orders aimed at reducing immigration. Also, his speech has long been inflammatory.
ICE issued a public statement claiming that its agents “occasionally encounter US citizens while conducting field work,” adding that this would come alongside requiring people to prove their identity. A spokesperson also revealed that the organization was investigating the incident. The White House added its two cents to the controversy, using X spokesperson Carolyn Leavitt to publicize that 538 “illegal immigrant criminals” were arrested on Thursday. She claimed that some of that number were people convicted of sex crimes, meaning they had something in common with her boss in the Oval Office.
There was no mention of the veterans who had to undergo a traumatic experience, nor of the dozens of other innocents who were undoubtedly affected by the raids. Newark is a so-called “sanctuary city,” meaning local officials either restrict or refuse to cooperate with the federal government when it comes to immigration enforcement. These cities are often The target of right-wing rageTrump and ICE’s approach appears to be to run raids in them specifically to make a political as well as a legal point.
Many social media users were quick to jump on this respect for someone who served in the military. There is a strong body of evidence to suggest that failed casino owner Trump used his wealth Dodge the draftby ADAIN ADERS and a fake diagnosis of bone spurs.
The fact of the matter is that crackdowns like this often target and hit innocent people. Those who truly believe in the Constitution and America’s high-minded founding principles should see this as an aberration that needs to be removed. However, Republicans seem desperate to trample citizens’ rights, as cruelly as possible. It will get worse over the next four years.
