Arizona Democratic lawmakers and activists got triggered by Trump Border Czar Tom Homan’s visit to the state and address to members of the State Legislature.

One House member even broke down in tears during a speech outside the Capitol.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Homan spoke to legislators in the Copper State Tuesday about the southern border and what the Trump Administration needs to stop the millions of violent criminals and terrorists who were allowed into our country under Joe Biden.

During his speech, a small group of liberals was seen outside the Capitol screaming and banging drums.

Via Rachel Alexander:

Arizona House Speaker Steve Montenegro told The Gateway Pundit "it's sad" that the Democrats are focused on fighting for illegals "instead of the children that are missing, instead of the Americans that are losing their lives from fentanyl" or "individuals, like Laken Riley, who are losing their lives because of brutal terrorists."

While the Border Czar was addressing lawmakers, Democrats stormed out of the Capitol as Homan began speaking about the over 300,000 children who were smuggled into this country and lost by the Biden regime. They were holding signs with the names of illegal aliens who were deported.

Homan responded with fire after they stood up to walk out, telling the lawmakers, "I love haters. They make my day."

"They chose the wrong time to walk out," Montenegro told The Gateway Pundit. "I think that we have to remind ourselves who elected us, who is expecting us to keep them safe, and those are Americans, Arizonans, who expect better from their elected officials." He then slammed the Democrats' sign stunt, saying, "Those are the names that should be on any signs."

Democrat State Rep. Betty Villegas gave an angry and dishonest speech outside the Capitol after she and her colleagues left the building. She ranted about the rights of people who are in our country illegally and claimed that ICE "deports people who are lawfully present in this country."

Villegas also accused Republicans in the legislature of "political theater," while claiming that Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs's SAFE initiative "has already taken over 6 million fentanyl pills off our streets." However, Montenegro says he credits the law enforcement officers of Arizona for doing their job and the Trump Administration's border reform for any success in combating the fentanyl crisis in Arizona.

WATCH:

Villegas: We're here responding to political theater. The decision to bring Tom Homan to our capitol today is not about solving the real challenges we face at the border. It's not about protecting public safety. It's certainly not about supporting the hard working immigrant communities that are the backbone of our economy and culture in Arizona. What's happening today is a farce, plain and simple, and the people of Arizona deserve better. Under Homan’s leadership, ICE was not only cruel, it is incompetent. Even by Trump era standards, it failed. His agency deports people who are lawfully present in this country. It separates families. It's targeting people who have built lives here, who contribute, who pay taxes to raise, who raise children, and who care for their aging parents.

If Republicans truly wanted a serious conversation on the border, they would take a cue from Governor Hobbs' SAFE initiative, which has already taken over 6 million fentanyl pills off our streets. That's real leadership. That's what public safety looks like. Instead, MAGA Republicans are trying to sell a false story that all undocumented people are criminals. That kind of rhetoric is dangerous. It's wrong, and it hurts real people. These are not just numbers. They are people, people with families, people who go to church, who run businesses, who coach Little League, who care for our sick and our elderly, people who deserve dignity and due process. Speaker yesterday says we want to follow the rule of law. Not having due process is not following the rule of law! So yes, we walked out because we will not be part of a charade that tries to take away the fundamental rights of others because once you strip one group of their rights, it becomes easier to do it to the next and the next. We stand here today because we believe in a better Arizona, one rooted in truth, in compassion and enduring promise of justice for all.

Rep. Anna Abeytia cried as she spewed lies and gave a cringeworthy threat, mentioning she's from the ghetto "West Side" of Phoenix and will not "stand idly by." At one point, she accused Republicans of Fascism and White Supremacy and bizarrely called President Trump Republicans' "political sugar daddy."

WATCH:

Abeytia: I am here today to address the crucial issue that deeply affects our communities and our values as Americans. I will not sit quietly while the truth is whitewashed, while the reality of what's happening is twisted to serve political agendas. Republicans are trying to clean up the political perception of these extra-judicial deportations by pushing false narratives, telling you not to believe your lying eyes. But I'm here to tell you that we will not let them sweep the truth under the rug. We know exactly what is happening, and we will not let them lie to Arizonans. I walked out today in protest because I refuse to be propagandized to about what the real issue is. Let's be clear, this issue is not about border militarization. No, the issue is a broken immigration system and bad foreign policy. These are the real roots of the crisis. As a duly elected representative and as a proud Latina, I have the obligation to speak out in this moment, and I have an obligation to stand up for my community and stand up for what is right. It was my community of Maryville, one of the hardest hit communities during SB1070 and the rise of anti immigration sentiment. This is the same community that fought against injustice, against prejudice, and against hate. And now we are being targeted again, but this time, by a Trump hate wave. And let me be clear, I will not stand idly by. That is not what we do in the west side.

Arizonans elected Republicans. Arizona elected Republicans have made a choice. They've decided to throw the rule of law into the gutter, all in the name of satisfying their political sugar daddy, Donald Trump. They've thrown away their responsibility to uphold justice in favor of preserving their political power. These Republican officials, today's Republican leaders, believe in power over patriotism, and that is a dangerous thing. What we're seeing now happening in our communities is disgusting. We are seeing families torn apart, lives ruined, and asylum seekers being deported, deported to tortured prisons in El Salvador, where the judges have specifically ordered that they not be deported there. Why is this happening? Because today's Republican Party is being led by people who are more interested in advancing their fascist White supremacist agenda than following the law. These are not people who care about justice. They care about control. They care about causing division and fear, and they will do anything, anything to enact their agenda. But I am here today to say enough is enough. I will not stand by and watch them terrorize my community. We will not let them dismantle the fabric of our society. We are here to stand up to these bullies. We say that we will not tolerate this cruelty, this law, this lawlessness, nor this hatred, hatred. We will fight back. We will continue to fight for our families, for our communities and for our dignity. We are standing on business here today because we are fighting for what's right, and I will never apologize for that.

Gov. JB Pritzker Brokers Deal to Host Roughly 30 Texas Democrats in Chicago for Week-Long Plot Against GOP Redistricting Plan

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is now playing host to roughly 30 rogue Texas Democrats who fled the Lone Star State to block a mid-decade redistricting vote backed by President Donald Trump and the Republican legislature.

The Texas Democrats, once again resorting to legislative cowardice, broke quorum just before a scheduled special session that would have cemented a new congressional map, one expected to create five new GOP-leaning seats.

In their desperate attempt to stop the vote, these runaway lawmakers fled across state lines to Chicago, where they are being sheltered and advised by none other than far-left Governor Pritzker himself, according to NBC.

This marks the second time in recent years that Texas Democrats have pulled this unconstitutional stunt. They tried the same tactic in 2021—and failed.

In response, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton blasted the lawmakers, saying: “Democrats in the Texas House who try and run away like cowards should be found, arrested, and brought back to the Capitol immediately. We should use every tool at our disposal to hunt down those who think they are above the law.”

Last month, Paxton issued a stern warning, vowing to arrest any Democrats who attempted to play political games.

“If Democrats ignore their duty to their constituents by breaking quorum, they should be found and arrested no matter where they go. The people of Texas elected them to do a job, not run away and hide like cowards. Lawmakers must answer the special session call and pass the important priorities that the Governor has put forward.

My office stands ready to assist local, state, and federal authorities in hunting down and compelling the attendance of anyone who abandons their office and their constituents for cheap political theater.”

Now, far-left Illinois Governor JB Pritzker has brokered a deal to host 30 Texas Democrats in Chicago in a last-ditch attempt to sabotage a redistricting plan backed by President Donald Trump and Texas Republicans.

These rogue Texas lawmakers fled the Lone Star State like cowards, deliberately breaking quorum to grind legislative business to a halt.

NBC reported:

The roughly 30 Democrats are expected to stay for the week in a plan brokered with Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, who had met with the Texas caucus late last month and has directed staff to provide logistical support for their stay. A news conference with the governor and Texas Democrats is expected later Sunday.

“We’re leaving Texas to fight for Texans,” Texas House Democratic Caucus Chair Gene Wu said in a statement. “We will not allow disaster relief to be held hostage to a Trump gerrymander. We’re not walking out on our responsibilities; we’re walking out on a rigged system that refuses to listen to the people we represent. As of today, this corrupt special session is over.”

[…]

Politically, the move puts Pritzker at the center of a high-profile national fight. The governor, who is running for his third term in office, is also widely viewed as a 2028 presidential contender. He has implored Democrats to resist Trump’s agenda.

The origins of Pritzker’s involvement began when the governor gave a keynote address to Oklahoma Democrats in June. Pritzker met privately in a “robust” meeting with the party chair to talk about the Texas redistricting, according to a person close to the governor. When Pritzker later met with Texas Democrats, he assured them they could come to his state and find support, including finding hotels, meeting spaces and other logistical assistance.

The Texas Democrats, however, face the risk of a $500-a-day fine and even possible arrest for fleeing the state. The Republican-controlled Legislature approved the measure in 2023, two years after state Democrats left the state for three weeks to block an elections bill from progressing.

“Democrats have got to stand up at this point and tell every individual in this nation, ‘This is not normal. This is not democracy,’” Democratic state Rep. Ann Johnson told NBC News on Saturday.

Sydney Sweeney Is Revealed to be Registered Republican Amid Woke Backlash Over American Eagle’s ‘Good Jeans’ Ad

In a stunning revelation that’s sure to infuriate the radical left even more, bombshell actress Sydney Sweeney has been outed as a registered Republican in Florida, just as she’s facing absurd backlash over a harmless American Eagle jeans advertisement.

The 27-year-old “Euphoria” star, known for her roles in hit shows and films, registered with the GOP in Monroe County in June 2024, according to public voter records viewed by The Gateway Pundit.

This comes at a time when left-wing activists are desperately trying to cancel her for an ad that playfully puns on “great jeans” and “good genes,” twisting it into some far-fetched eugenics conspiracy.

The controversy erupted last week when American Eagle launched its fall campaign featuring Sweeney. In the ad, the blonde beauty struts in denim while narrating about her family heritage: “My parents always said I got good genes… Great jeans look good on everyone.”

The ad’s slogan is a clever play on words, tying into the brand’s jeans line and celebrating confidence and personal style. But in today’s hyper-woke climate, nothing innocent escapes the outrage mob. Critics on social media, particularly from progressive circles, accused the ad of promoting “white supremacy” and eugenics, claiming the “genes” reference evokes Nazi-era ideals of genetic superiority, simply because Sweeney is white, attractive, and unapologetically feminine.

American Eagle fired back against the nonsense, issuing a statement that read, in part, “Her jeans. Her story. We’ll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way.”

This isn’t the first time Sweeney has faced scrutiny for not toeing the Hollywood leftist line. Rumors of her conservative leanings have swirled for years, fueled by photos from a family gathering where people were seen wearing red MAGA hats. Sweeney never commented on the controversy.

Sweeney is no longer just a talented actress, she’s emerging as a symbol of resistance against cancel culture.

Motorcyclist Gets Taught a Hard Lesson After Performing Dangerous Stunts in Front of Police Officers (VIDEO)

A motorcyclist got taught a hard lesson after deciding to perform stupid stunts while driving in front of police.

As KKTV reported on Thursday, a person in Pueblo, Colorado got busted by police last month after officers witnessed a series of reckless moves by him and two of his cronies.

These motorcyclists blocked traffic with their stunts, causing several community members to call the cops and complain.

As the video below shows, motorcyclists perform sets of wheelies and stand up on the seat, endangering themselves and others on the road.

Once the motorcyclists reach a stoplight, the Pueblo police spring into action. They gang tackle the motorcyclist closest to them, and the other two drivers speed off.

He is then put into handcuffs.

WATCH:

One of the officers angrily explains to the motorcyclist that he has a whole dashcam of him doing stupid things while driving on the road, endangering everybody.

Then the idiot receives news that he probably considers worse than an arrest: the police officer tells him they will tow his bike and put a hold on it for a nuisance.

“Oh no, please don’t do that,” he whines.

The policeman further explains that the bike will now go into storage, and the biker must pay the tow fee every day for six months.

“No, dude. Please don’t do this. It’s a minibike, I hardly ever ride that thing,” he whimpers.

The cop closes by telling the motorcyclist they are not trying to make his life harder, but that he put everyone in danger. Thus, he needs to suffer the consequences for his actions.
