Once again, the failure of Democrat leadership is on full display for the world to see. When pressed about an illegal immigrant accused of murdering Sheridan Gorman, a young student from Loyola University, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries couldn’t even bring himself to say whether the accused should be deported if convicted. These are the people in charge, and they won’t even answer the simplest question on protecting Americans.
This tragic crime didn’t have to happen, but it’s the predictable result of weak borders and leftist politicians more concerned with protecting illegal immigrants than U.S. citizens. Americans like Sheridan Gorman are paying the ultimate price for failed, globalist open border policies pushed by Democrats in Washington. Instead of standing up for innocent victims and demanding consequences for those who break our laws, liberals waffle, dodge, and hide behind politically correct nonsense.
The radical left has bent over backwards for years to create “sanctuaries” in our cities for people who shouldn’t be here in the first place. They act like common sense—such as deporting a convicted killer in our country illegally—is somehow “controversial.” That’s absurd. If someone comes here illegally, commits a heinous crime, and takes the life of a young American, there should be only one option: get them out and keep them out.
But for Jeffries and his crowd, it’s all about protecting their political image and pandering to their progressive base. They refuse to say the obvious because they don’t want to offend their far-left supporters or risk losing the votes of people who don’t think borders matter. The result? More pain. More chaos. More innocent lives destroyed at the hands of people who are here unlawfully.
Enough with the cowardice and excuses. How many more Sheridans will it take for Democrats to admit they’re wrong? Americans deserve leaders who put their own citizens first, not globalist interests. Maybe Jeffries should try answering to the families mourning lost loved ones instead of dodging responsibility every time the cameras turn on.
