Another day, another Democrat caught red-handed refusing to stand up for American citizens over illegal aliens. Congressional candidate Justin Pearson (D-TN) just delivered a masterclass in political cowardice when asked a simple question: who would he deport?

The answer? Absolutely nobody, apparently.

When pressed directly to name even ONE illegal alien he would support deporting, Pearson went into full dodge mode, launching a predictable attack on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) instead. Rather than acknowledge that some criminals don't belong in our country, this Democrat chose to demonize the brave men and women tasked with protecting American communities.

Pearson's verbal gymnastics included claiming that no one in President Trump's administration could be "trusted" - a laughable assertion considering Trump is currently delivering on his promise of mass deportations while Democrats like Pearson offer nothing but obstruction and excuses.

"This is exactly why Americans rejected the Democrat Party's open borders agenda," said one immigration reform advocate. "They literally cannot name a single person they think should be removed from our country illegally."

Think about that for a moment, Patriots. We're talking about people who entered our nation illegally, potentially including violent criminals, drug dealers, and human traffickers. Yet this Democrat candidate can't bring himself to say that ANY of them should face consequences.

Meanwhile, President Trump's deportation operations are removing dangerous criminals from American streets daily, fulfilling his campaign promise to put America First. ICE agents are doing the job Democrats refuse to support - protecting law-abiding citizens from those who have no right to be here.

Pearson's anti-ICE rant perfectly encapsulates the modern Democrat Party: more concerned with protecting illegal aliens than defending the Americans who elected them. It's the same failed ideology that got crushed in 2024 when voters overwhelmingly chose Trump's America First agenda.

The choice couldn't be clearer, folks. On one side, you have President Trump delivering results and removing criminals. On the other, you have Democrats like Pearson who can't even admit that immigration laws should be enforced.

Is this really the "representation" Tennessee voters want - a politician who puts foreign lawbreakers ahead of his own constituents?

I spent 20 years defending this country's borders overseas, only to come home and watch politicians refuse to defend them here. What's the point of having immigration laws if we won't enforce them?

What about violent criminals who are here illegally? Gang members? Drug dealers? He won't even say THOSE should be deported?

This is exactly what's wrong with the Democrat party today - they care more about virtue signaling than protecting American citizens and following our laws.

Couldn't agree more. They want open borders but won't say it outright.

Typical politician non-answer!

This guy clearly doesn't represent the interests of American citizens. How can you run for Congress when you won't even commit to enforcing federal immigration law?

Simple question deserves a simple answer. If he can't name even ONE person who should be deported, he's basically admitting he supports completely open borders.

Exactly! At least be honest about your position instead of dodging.

Meanwhile our schools are overcrowded and our emergency rooms are packed. These candidates live in gated communities - they don't see the real impact on working families.
