Arizona Democrat Senator Ruben Gallego has sunk to new lows in his desperate attacks on President Trump's immigration enforcement, outrageously claiming that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is "going to go after all the brown people" during an appearance on MSNBC's "The Weekend."
This disgusting race-baiting from Gallego represents everything wrong with the radical left's approach to immigration policy. Instead of acknowledging that ICE targets individuals based on their illegal immigration status - not their race or ethnicity - Gallego chose to play the tired race card that Democrats have weaponized for decades.
The Left's Favorite Playbook: Cry Racism
Gallego's inflammatory comments are a textbook example of how Democrats deliberately distort President Trump's lawful immigration enforcement to divide Americans along racial lines. ICE doesn't care what color you are, Senator - they care whether you're here legally or illegally.
"This is exactly the kind of dangerous rhetoric that puts our brave ICE agents at risk and undermines the rule of law," said one immigration enforcement expert.
The Arizona Democrat's comments are particularly rich considering he represents a border state that has been devastated by the Biden administration's open-border policies over the past four years. Arizona families - of all backgrounds - have suffered from increased crime, drug trafficking, and human smuggling while Democrats like Gallego played politics.
Trump's Promise: Equal Justice Under Law
President Trump has made it crystal clear that his immigration enforcement will target criminals and those who have violated our immigration laws - period. The suggestion that law enforcement will target people based on race is not only false, but it's the kind of inflammatory lie that puts communities at risk.
Patriots across America see right through this desperate attempt to weaponize race against common-sense immigration enforcement. After years of watching our borders get overrun while politicians like Gallego did nothing, working families are ready for leaders who put America First.
How long will Democrats continue dividing our nation with lies instead of supporting the rule of law that keeps all Americans safe?
