As Twitchy reported a week ago, Rep. Delia Ramirez traveled to Mexico City for the second annual Panamerican Congress. Other attendees from the U.S. included Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. Ramirez caught conservatives' attention when she said in Spanish, "I'm a proud Guatemalan before I'm an American."
She didn't really say that, didn't she? Actually, when confronted, she doubled down, saying that honoring her Guatemalan ancestry only strengthens her commitment to America.
Making another trip this last weekend at Netroots Nation, Ramirez told the audience of lefties that ICE is a terrorist organization. She also told border czar Tom Homan that "we will continue to stand up for our rights," although who she meant by "we" is unclear—illegal aliens or members of Congress.

So if ICE detains and deports Tren de Aragua gang members, ICE is the terrorist organization in that equation.
Yes, she's the daughter of illegal immigrants, and her husband is a DACA recipient, so you're welcome. We don't know how being born in Chicago makes one more Guatemalan than American.
She should be saying that from a different country.

Remove her from her committees.

Remove her from Congress.
Remove her from the United States.
If she loves Guatemala first, she should live there.

Of course she does. DHS is urging DACA recipients, like her husband, to self deport. I wonder if she will choose to go to Guatemala with him if he's deported? Magic 8-ball says "doubtful".

Only in America can you trash the people who keep it safe… while standing safely inside it. 🇺🇸🤦♀️

Barely on the border for inciting violence.

The last we'd read, assaults on ICE agents were up 700 percent or so.
The Trump administration needs to DEPORT her DACA husband.

There’s no such thing as a “dreamer.”
DACA never went thru Congress and it’s past time to SHUT IT DOWN.
Gosh Illinois, is there anyone in public office that is not a total radical, lunatic?

Thanks to gerrymandering, no.
