Rand Paul SUPPORTS Our ICE Agents


Listen Later

A new political divide is emerging among both constituents and elected representatives.

The surprising twist?

A growing number of politicians are siding with leftists and calling for the elimination of ICE.

At the very least, Democrats want ICE off the streets of America’s largest cities.

Rand Paul stands in opposition to those radicals. Instead of pivoting to the political flavor of the moment, Paul is standing firm in his support of ICE.

ICE is America’s Last Stand

If ICE weren’t patrolling the city streets, America wouldn’t be a unified country. ICE agents are the only barrier standing between law and order and complete chaos.

Why doesn’t the left see it the same way?

It’s a question Rand Paul is asking yet the Democrats haven’t provided a reasonable answer to.

“I am not for chaos or force in the streets. I am for deporting violent criminals who are already in jail. Most Americans agree with that.” – Rand Paul

Paul recently made news when discussing ICE with Katie Couric. Couric, a newscaster whose star has faded, minimized the importance of ICE arresting violent criminals.

“If your daughter gets r*ped & he’s one of the 14%, I don’t think you’re gonna quibble about whether it’s 14 or 64.” – Paul

The Kentucky senator’s retort came in response to Couric insisting less than 15% of illegal immigrants are violent offenders.

Paul’s point?

Even 1% of illegal invaders being violent is meaningful. Moreover, that 1% is justification enough for organized ICE efforts to remove all illegals from the United States.

ICE is Restoring Its Rapport With the American People

In the spirit of fairness, it’s worth mentioning Paul’s previous stance on ICE. The Kentucky senator insisted ICE had to restore its public trust following the clashes with protestors in Minnesota.

ICE is doing exactly that. Paul is the first one to admit it.

It’s a testament to the difference between Democrats and Republicans. Paul and other Republicans are consistent on the ICE effort while the Dems have reacted in character with their typical emotional pleas for open borders.

How is the rapport between ICE and the American people being rebuilt?

Through measured and peaceful illegal immigrant removal efforts. Paul is giving ICE credit for its internal reform effort. ICE protocols and policies were altered in mere days.

Paul even went as fair as supporting the filming of ICE agents and other governmental officials in public.

Why?

Because doing so is a constitutional right.

“We must avoid on all sides just resorting to inflammatory rhetoric. Declaring ‘nothing to see here,’ or rushing to label a U.S. citizen a ‘domestic terrorist’ before the evidence is established undermines trust and escalates already volatile situations.” – Paul

The takeaway?

Paul sees the immigration enforcement effort from different perspectives. He noted that he’s encouraged by the ongoing cooperation with government authorities in Minnesota and elsewhere.

Paul’s point?

There are two sides to every story. In some cases, there are more than two sides to a story.

The American people clearly value liberty. The Trump administration feels the same way.

Hence, ICE is examining its own actions including missteps in Minnesota and elsewhere.

The outcome?

A protection of our invaluable civil liberties while simultaneously removing illegal immigrants, many of whom have a criminal record.

Paul Wants Americans to let ICE do Its Job

It’s in everyone’s interest to pause and reflect for a moment.

Reflect on the past years of the Biden administration when caravans of illegal immigrants invaded the United States.

Those illegals crossed America’s southern border unimpeded. ICE is here to right that wrong, reversing years of a turnstile immigration policy.

The moral of the story?

Patriotic Americans should fall back, letting ICE do its job of securing our streets and neighborhoods.

A little bit of patience goes a long way. Moreover, giving thanks to brave ICE agents for doing a job no one else is willing to do helps lift spirits.

If you know any leftists or others who’ve turned on ice, steer them toward Rand Paul.

Have them learn from Paul’s analysis of ICE, observing how he segued from somewhat of an ICE critic to an ICE supporter for good reason. It is in this spirit of fairness that we will take a collective step forward.
