Jamie Raskin Attacks Trump's Deportation of Criminals, Demands They Be Flown Back to U.S.
Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin demonstrated how little he cares about the safety of Americans by demanding President Donald Trump return the recently deported Venezuelan gang members to the United States.
During a hearing, Raskin said that the hundreds of Venezuelan gangsters deported from the U.S. to a prison in El Salvador should be returned immediately.
“I call on my colleagues to demand that the Trump Administration comply with all judicial orders while appealing whichever ones they want to appeal, and to demand the return of people unlawfully taken to El Salvador on that so-called plane full of ‘gang bangers,’” Raskin said on Tuesday.
Raskin was referring to the illegal immigrant gang members tied to Tren de Aragua and MS-13, who were deported back to El Salvador last month after an agreement signed between President Trump and El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele.

The unhinged New York Democrat argued that deporting criminals was a “blatant violation of American due process and all of our constitutional values.”
Watch:
Raskin went on to complain about so-called attacks on activist judges, such as Obama appointee Judge James Boasberg, who is trying to block Trump’s deportation efforts.
“I especially call on them today to denounce all violent threats, doxxing, online vilification, and threats against our judges,” he continued.
“This is the Judiciary Committee of the United States, and we should act like it.”

It is ironic that Raskin is suddenly concerned about threats of violence, given that he’s not bothered about the ongoing wave of violent attacks against Tesla owners and dealerships.
“This is the kind of civil disorder that has been unleashed in the country and licensed by Donald Trump, who pardoned more than 1,500 insurrectionists, including hundreds of people who violently assaulted our police officers,” Raskin said in an interview with NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo.
“So, that scene you’re showing me [of burning Teslas] makes me sick, not as sick as the attack on our police officers, but it’s in the same domain, and it’s all because of the same reason.”
