Latinas For Trump Co-Founder Flips On President Trump Over Illegal Immigrant Arrests

[Conservative Angle]

​

One person has just left the Trump Train.

The co-founder of Latinas for Trump blasted President Trump in a post on X on Sunday.

A Republican Florida State Senator who was a major backer of Trump in the 2024 election has now publicly criticized the President over his administration’s recent actions of deporting illegal immigrants.

The Hill had more on the story:

Florida state senator Ileana Garcia (R), co-founder of Latinas for Trump, issued a sharp rebuke of President Trump on Sunday as his administration seeks to ramp up deportations and other actions against undocumented immigrants.

Garcia took particular issue with reported tactics in southern Florida, where immigration officials have allegedly been making arrests in immigration courts and taking other steps to target individuals otherwise in compliance with legal orders.

“This is not what we voted for,” Garcia wrote in a post on X. “I have always supported Trump, @realDonaldTrump, through thick and thin. However, this is unacceptable and inhumane.”

“I understand the importance of deporting criminal aliens, but what we are witnessing are arbitrary measures to hunt down people who are complying with their immigration hearings—in many cases, with credible fear of persecution claims—all driven by a Miller-like desire to satisfy a self-fabricated deportation goal,” she continued in her post, referring to White House homeland security adviser and deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller.

I stand with Congresswoman Salazar. As the state senator who represents her district and the daughter of Cuban refugees, who are now just as American, if not more so than Stephen Miller, I am deeply disappointed by these actions.
And I will not stand down.

I want to put myself… https://t.co/fk26Pvq5Vs

The Miami Herald covered the story, too:

The public remarks from one of Trump’s longtime supporters come as the president’s immigration policies cause stress and uncertainty in South Florida. Trump’s executive orders and the Department of Homeland Security’s actions have targeted hundreds of thousands of immigrants in the region, including Cubans and Venezuelans — communities that threw their support behind Trump during the November election, helping him win Miami-Dade County.

As top White House aide Stephen Miller reportedly demands 3,000 immigration arrests a day, federal agents in Miami and across the U.S. are swooping into courthouses to detain people and place them in quick deportation proceedings that don’t require a judge.

With Trump casting a wider immigration-enforcement net, Latino Republicans in South Florida are balancing their support for the White House and their constituents. Next week, Miami’s GOP delegation in Washington is slated to meet with Trump’s Homeland Security secretary.

Sen. Ileana Garcia previously made national headlines after she fainted during a press conference last month.
