How We See It

The rideshare company’s background check didn’t catch a thing. That’s the part of this Maryland horror story that should stop you cold. A grown man, in the country illegally, is now facing charges that he kidnapped and raped a child he met through his job. He was trusted with access to people’s homes and families, and the system that was supposed to vet him let everyone down.

This is not an isolated incident, and we’re tired of being told to treat it like one. Every time a story like this breaks, we hear the same excuses from the left: don’t conflate, don’t stereotype, this isn’t who immigrants are. But the people of Maryland aren't looking for a sociology lecture. They’re looking at a predator who should have been deported years ago and asking why he was still here. Open borders have a body count, and this time the victim is a child.

The Biden administration spent four years dismantling the enforcement mechanisms that would have caught this man. They released thousands into the interior, told local police to stand down, and called anyone who objected a bigot. Now, a family in Maryland is paying the price for that ideology. The system failed, and they don't get a do-over. The only "welcoming" that happened was to a man who had no right to be here in the first place.

We don’t need another study on this. We need the deportations, and we need the people who enabled this catastrophe held accountable. This isn't about hate; it's about the basic duty of a government to protect its citizens. If you can’t vet a rideshare driver, you can’t secure a border. He shouldn’t have been here. It really is that simple.
