Politico Reporter Is Very Upset That Our 'New Normal' Involves Arresting Illegal Immigrant Criminals

Yesterday, we told you about Aimee Cho, a reporter for NBC in Washington, and her pushing of a narrative surrounding the ICE arrest of a man in D.C. Before she even knew why ICE detained the man, Cho was insinuating he was innocent and caught up in President Trump's crime crackdown.

Turns out the man in question, David Perez-Teofani, was not only in the country illegally he was arrested in Fairfax County in 2024 for aggravated sexual battery against a minor. He also had a final deportation order and entered the U.S. illegally three times.

That didn't stop various Lefties from pushing the narrative. Some, like Jessica Tarlov, deleted their posts. Others did not.

Like Politico's Josh Gerstein.

Yes, Josh. Arresting criminals is the new normal.

Sorry that it hurts your feelings.

He's currently got an epic ratio going, too: 500+ replies to 75 reposts.

Bad sign for "norms" if Politico's legal correspondent thinks a child sex predator belongs on the streets

A very bad sign.

Why do you not want people previously arrested for aggravated sexual assault of a child removed from the street? https://t.co/bJkUO3cGCQ

Because Orange Man Bad.

So you want foreign pedos roaming our streets??

YUP.

Great catch, Josh.

It is indeed a fact that the #newnormal you reference is indeed underway. We're not going to let illegal alien child rapists run around free in this country, we're going to arrest them.I hope that doesn't upset you

Grateful to President Trump for this new normal.

Detaining someone that was arrested last year and charged with aggravated sexual battery against a minor under 13 + 3X illegal entry into the U.S.

That is a very welcome type of new normal. https://t.co/0yZee2tHTD

Very welcome indeed.

If arresting violent criminal pedophiles and taking them off the street is the new normal, then good. https://t.co/PlLi3U1Jg4

Good is an understatement.

Mr. Politico correspondent believes it is a bad thing police arrest pedos.

As I said this morning, journos wake up wanting to be find new ways to be hated by everyone, and they consistently succeed in their goal. https://t.co/WL0Zm0frF7

Yup. We all despise them.

Dude has been charged with aggravated sexual battery against a minor under 13 and had entered the US illegally 3 times. New normal in which criminal can’t roam our streets indeed. https://t.co/uGOvMSo1lZ

Democrats think we just have to tolerate this.

Another ‘journalist’ lamenting that criminal illegal alien child predators are being arrested and deported. Again, Democrats will always prioritize ALL illegal aliens over you and your family. Also, savor and celebrate all ‘journalism’ layoffs.🎉 https://t.co/BUKWyYA9ac pic.twitter.com/hOVYibV1AW

Journalism layoffs are entirely self-inflicted.

Josh is a prime example of that.
