“Advocates say flawed ‘checklist’ targets Venezuelans for deportation under archaic wartime act”
The article laments the deportation of Venezuelan nationals—some of them members of notorious gangs like Tren de Aragua and MS-13—under what activists call an outdated wartime law. NPR highlights the concerns of immigration advocates who argue that the “checklist” used to determine deportations is overly broad and unfairly targets Venezuelans. The article frets about the legality and morality of deporting individuals who could face human rights abuses in their home countries. Despite the criminal affiliations of many deportees, the piece focuses on how the policy might be discriminatory and lacking due process, portraying deportations as a humanitarian crisis rather than a national security measure.
Here’s What They Meant To Say
Criminals Deserve Hugs, Not Handcuffs
Apparently, when we deport gang members responsible for violence, drug trafficking, and chaos, NPR’s bleeding hearts go into overdrive. According to them, it’s “archaic” to use laws that protect American citizens from foreign nationals who belong to actual criminal syndicates. Who cares if they’re in MS-13 or Tren de Aragua? They have feelings too, right? The article barely mentions the safety of Americans—because clearly, our top priority should be the comfort of violent thugs who got caught breaking the law.
Due Process for the World’s Worst
The same people who scream “abolish ICE” are now upset that we’re deporting dangerous criminals instead of coddling them in taxpayer-funded shelters. The “checklist” they whine about is just common sense: if you’re in a violent gang, you don’t belong here. But leave it to the left to twist that into a human rights violation. Heaven forbid we prioritize the safety of American neighborhoods over the vacation preferences of hardened criminals.
In conclusion, how dare we inconvenience international gang members by sending them back to face consequences in their own countries? Next thing you know, NPR will be holding candlelight vigils for cartel enforcers.
