A radical Democrat running for Senate in Texas has exposed the extreme open-borders agenda of his party, calling illegal alien students the "most patriotic" Americans while demanding the complete abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

During a recent interview in Dallas, Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico revealed his shocking anti-American immigration stance, declaring he would vote against Sen. Markwayne Mullin's nomination to lead the Department of Homeland Security unless the nominee agrees to completely dismantle ICE, which Talarico disgracefully called a "secret police force."

But Talarico's radical rhetoric didn't stop there. In a statement that will infuriate every law-abiding American who followed the rules to come here legally, this leftist extremist actually praised illegal aliens as more patriotic than American citizens.

The Left's War on Legal Immigration

This is the modern Democrat Party, folks – a party that has completely abandoned any pretense of supporting legal immigration or American sovereignty. While President Trump works tirelessly to secure our borders and protect American workers, Democrats like Talarico are literally celebrating those who broke our laws to get here.

"These radical Democrats want to reward lawbreaking while punishing Americans who play by the rules. It's backwards and it's un-American."

Talarico's comments perfectly illustrate why Texas voters rejected this kind of extremism and why the Trump-Vance administration's America First agenda resonates with real Americans. While ICE agents risk their lives to protect our communities from dangerous criminals and drug traffickers, this Democrat wants to abolish the entire agency.

Texas Won't Fall for Radical Lies

The good news? Texans are too smart to fall for this radical nonsense. They've seen what happens when Democrats prioritize illegal aliens over American citizens – higher crime, strained resources, and communities under siege.

With President Trump leading the largest deportation operation in American history and Republicans controlling Congress, extremists like Talarico represent the dying gasps of a failed open-borders ideology that puts America last.

Will Texas voters send this radical to Washington to undermine President Trump's immigration agenda, or will they choose leaders who actually put Americans first?

Another out-of-touch politician who probably lives nowhere near the border talking about issues they don't understand.

Please tell me this person has zero chance of winning. Texas voters aren't this crazy, right?

This is exactly why Texas needs to stay RED! How can someone running for Senate call people who broke our immigration laws 'most patriotic'? That's a slap in the face to every legal immigrant who followed the rules.

Absolutely agree! My grandfather came here legally from Ireland and was so proud to become a citizen the right way.

I came here legally from Mexico 15 years ago and became a citizen. It's insulting to say people who skip the process are more patriotic than those of us who did it the right way. The legal immigration system needs reform, but abolishing ICE isn't the answer.

Congratulations on your citizenship! You're exactly the kind of person we want as Americans.

As a veteran, I find it offensive that someone would call illegal border crossers more patriotic than the men and women who served this country. I live near the border and see the chaos firsthand - drugs, human trafficking, you name it.

Thank you for your service! My husband deployed three times and this kind of rhetoric is disgusting.

This candidate clearly doesn't understand what patriotism means. Following our laws and respecting our sovereignty is patriotic, not breaking them.

Abolishing ICE would be a complete disaster. Who exactly would handle immigration enforcement then?

RADICAL is right! These far-left Democrats have completely lost touch with reality.
