How We See It: Protecting Borders, Upholding Values

The recent coverage on President Trump’s immigration enforcement has focused heavily on what activists label as frightening arrests. While it’s crucial to address the human aspect of these stories, the framing often overlooks a fundamental aspect of immigration policy: maintaining national security and the rule of law.

Critics paint a picture of indiscriminate crackdowns, but this narrative fails to acknowledge that lawful immigration enforcement is crucial for upholding a system that has long been a pillar of American stability. The assertion that many arrests are unlawful raises important questions about the legal framework that governs our borders and how respect for the law should guide these operations.

Ultimately, immigration should be about ensuring fairness and security for all. It is imperative we approach this issue with a commitment to institutional integrity, preserving not just the rights of individuals but the very structure that underpins our society.
