Foreign-Born Reps Defending Anti-ICE Rioters Prove Founders Were Right To Be Wary Of Foreign Influence In Government
2025-06-10
[The Federalist] Rather than work to preserve national sovereignty and protect America, a handful of foreign-born representatives are actively undermining immigration enforcement and encouraging lawlessness.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal, who was born in India and naturalized in 2000, issued a call to action to oppose immigration enforcement, saying: "We are here to say, ’Free the immigrants that have been arrested.’ We are here to say, ’End the ICE raids!'"

Her comments come as violent riots erupt in Los Angeles in opposition to immigration enforcement measures. Rioters have attacked police vehicles, thrown fireworks at officers on horseback, looted, and disrupted traffic — all while waving the Mexican flag and burning the American flag.

Jayapal’s comments were echoed by California Rep. Norma Torres (who was born in Guatemala and became a citizen in 1992), who threatened that chaos would continue until ICE leaves Los Angeles.

"ICE, get the f-ck out of L.A. so that order can be restored," Torres said.

#1  Is that genuine nativism, or a leftist playing straw men?
