I utterly love the way so many leftist news organizations are simping
ICE arrests US Spanish-language news outlet reporter without warrant
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested a Spanish-language Tennessee news outlet’s reporter who had done stories critical of the agency – but agents didn’t have a warrant, according to court documents filed recently by her lawyer.
A court filing Friday by ICE disputes the assertion that the reporter was arrested without a warrant.
They do not need one: she is here illegally, claimed asylum, and failed to appear for multiple immigration hearings. Let’s see if the uber-leftist UK Guardian will mention this
Estefany Rodriguez Florez of Nashville Noticias, who had produced reports that were unflattering to ICE, was arrested Wednesday during a traffic stop. She is being detained by ICE’s enforcement and removal operations, according to documents filed in federal court in Nashville.
Her lawyers called for her immediate release, but ICE has asked a judge to deny the request.
Rodriguez, a Colombian citizen, entered the United States lawfully and has been living in the US for the past five years, court records filed by her lawyer show. She has a valid work permit, and she has applied for political asylum and legal status though her husband, who is a US citizen. The document filed by her lawyer does not specify a reason for her asylum request.
They, like most of the rest, are simply running with what the AP started, with the “entered lawfully” without bothering to provide full details
(Nashville Banner) ICE provided the following statement to the Banner:
ICE arrested Estefany Rodriguez-Florez, an illegal alien from Colombia, March 4 during a targeted enforcement operation. Rodriguez-Florez entered the United States with a tourist visa March 10, 2021, which was valid until March 23, 2021. She failed to depart the country and is in violation of the conditions of her visa and currently has no lawful immigration status. She will remain in ICE custody pending her immigration proceedings.
She entered and had no intention of leaving, hence the (fake) asylum claim. Perhaps she should have been thankful to be in the United States rather than being a pain in the ass.

Fake William typed: “They do not need one (warrant): she is here illegally, claimed asylum, and failed to appear for multiple immigration hearings.”
65% of Americans have learned from experience not to trust the ICE goons and thugs, Big Donnie or the head of DHS, regardless which clown it is.
LOL. Here’s the ICE warrant, suppled by ICE to the right-wing Banner: https://i0.wp.com/nashvillebanner.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-06-at-3.57.52-PM.png?resize=1200%2C829&quality=80&ssl=1

She was targeted for her writings critical of ICE. Another of the “worst of the worst” arrested!!
No one is above the law! Your president is a rapist, child molester and grifter. He’s a iincreasingly demented stooge of Putin and Netanyahoo. His administration stopped enforcing fraud laws. His “people” are weak bootlickers. Blondi has perjured herself, Hegseth is a rapist, Patel, Kennedy and Noem grifters…
