CNN’s token conservative voice, Scott Jennings, reality-checked Democrats who are fearmongering about ongoing Trump’s mass deportations. The left has been lying to American citizens, telling them that they could be picked up on the streets and deported to some of the most brutal prisons in El Salvador.
One such fearmonger, civil and criminal attorney Donte Mills, appeared on CNN’s show alongside Jennings and attempted to perpetuate the same narrative. He claimed that the administration could deport American citizens by accident and that “it could happen to anybody,” allowing the former special assistant for George W. Bush to educate him.
Jennings started reminding Mills that American voters gave Trump the mandate to deport illegal immigrants. Trump campaigned on border security and promised to conduct the largest mass deportations in history, making illegal immigration a losing issue for Democrats.
“Americans overwhelmingly voted for it. And it’s not particularly a controversial matter,” Jennings set the record straight.
“And that’s what the administration clearly communicated to the American people in the election.”
“They overwhelmingly voted for it. And it’s not particularly a controversial matter.”
He also schooled the leftie on the differences between illegal immigrants and legal citizens, which Democrats attempt to blur to push their false narrative.
“You’re conflating legal American citizens with people who came here illegally. We do this all the time in these debates.”
“I think what the administration is trying to do is be as aggressive as possible at deporting different kinds of populations.
“One, people who’ve committed heinous, violent crimes. Number two, people that were violent before they came here.”
According to a recent Pew Research Center study, an overwhelming majority (97%) of Americans support deporting violent illegal immigrants. Two-thirds of Americans, including half of Democrats, also support deporting all illegal immigrants in the country.
“Number three, anyone who came here illegally, I mean, look, I’m sorry, but if you came here illegally, no matter how well-intentioned you were, there’s probably a decent chance you’re going to be sent back,” Jennings continued.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt had schooled journalists that anybody who entered the country illegally was a criminal and subject to deportation because the Trump administration was focused on enforcing all laws, including immigration laws.
“And if you are an individual, a foreign national, who illegally enters the United States of America, you are, by definition, a criminal,” she stated.
However, the Trump administration started by deporting the most violent criminals, whom the Democrats characterized as innocent undocumented individuals looking for better opportunities, such as crop pickers.
Liberal judge James Boasberg even ordered the Trump administration to return Tren de Aragua gang members into the country, against the wishes of most Americans. However, the Supreme Court blocked the restraining order given by the liberal judge, whose articles of impeachment were filed in the Senate.
Democrats also overwhelmingly voted against the Laken Riley Act, which aims to protect Americans’ lives by detaining illegal immigrants who are arrested, charged, or convicted for various crimes, such as burglary, theft, larceny, or shoplifting, to prevent them from being released on the streets and committing even more grievous crimes.
The law was inspired by Laken Riley, a nursing student who was murdered by a violent illegal immigrant, arrested for various crimes, and released due to lack of similar laws allowing the detention of illegal immigrants undergoing prosecution.
Despite Americans clearly stating that they want to secure their country, Democrats are undoubtedly siding with criminals instead of Americans who elected them.
