Liberal federal judges are once again trying to stop President Trump from protecting America’s borders. These activist judges think they know better than the American people who voted for stronger immigration enforcement. Paul Perez from the National Border Patrol Council is calling out this judicial overreach for what it really is.
Trump’s administration has been working around the clock to secure our southern border and remove dangerous criminals from our communities. ICE agents are now required to arrest between 1,200 and 1,500 illegal immigrants every single day. This is exactly what hardworking Americans voted for when they put Trump back in the White House.
But left-wing judges keep interfering with these common-sense enforcement actions. They issue bogus injunctions and temporary restraining orders that tie the hands of our brave border patrol agents. These judges care more about protecting illegal immigrants than they do about protecting American citizens.
The Trump administration has already made major changes to fix our broken immigration system. At least 20 immigration judges who were soft on deportations got fired in February. The administration also cut down the bloated Board of Immigration Appeals from 23 members to just 15.
Trump signed the powerful Laken Riley Act into law, which requires authorities to detain dangerous criminals who commit theft and burglary. The president also brought back the successful Remain in Mexico policy that kept asylum seekers from disappearing into our country. These are smart policies that work.
Liberal activist groups like the ACLU are working overtime to challenge every single Trump immigration policy in court. They file lawsuits to stop family detention and complain about social media screening for people who hate America. These groups want open borders and unlimited immigration no matter what it costs American families.
The administration is fighting back by using every legal tool available, including the Alien Enemies Act. This law allows the government to quickly remove members of dangerous criminal organizations like Tren de Aragua. Hundreds of these criminals have already been sent back to where they came from.
American patriots need to stand with President Trump and our border patrol agents against these activist judges. We cannot let a handful of liberal judges in black robes override the will of the American people. Our borders must be secured and our immigration laws must be enforced.
