JD Vance slams Selena Gomez’s immigration stance, defends Trump’s tough border policies

Vice President JD Vance has strongly defended President Donald Trump’s firm stance on immigration, dismissing criticism from celebrities like Selena Gomez.

In a recent interview with Fox News, Vance praised Trump’s relentless commitment to securing the U.S.-Mexico border, describing his leadership as “full speed ahead, no hesitation.”

During the discussion, Vance reiterated the administration’s urgent focus on tackling illegal immigration, highlighting the necessity of regaining full control over the country’s borders. His remarks came shortly after Trump announced the reopening of a high capacity migrant detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, designed to hold up to 30,000 detainees awaiting deportation.

Vance didn’t mince words when addressing the broader immigration crisis, stressing that the estimated 20 million undocumented migrants currently residing in the United States pose a major challenge. “If we want to restore our sovereignty, we have to take decisive action. That means deporting those who entered illegally,” he asserted.

Despite acknowledging the scale of Trump’s immigration goals, Vance defended the administration’s aggressive approach, arguing that bold leadership is necessary to enforce the rule of law.

Shifting the focus to public discourse on immigration, Vance aimed at Selena Gomez, who recently voiced concern over the treatment of migrants. He criticized what he sees as misplaced priorities, noting that while celebrities express sympathy for undocumented immigrants, they often overlook the devastating impact of criminal aliens on American families.

Vance said that he was sent heartbreaking photos of children and kids the same age as of his own, who were killed by criminals. This happened when Selena Gomez had her viral moment.

He emphasized that compassion should start at home. “As an American, your first responsibility is to your fellow citizens. That doesn’t mean we have to hate anyone, but our primary concern must always be the safety and well-being of our own people.”

With Trump’s administration doubling down on immigration enforcement, Vance’s remarks underscore the administration’s commitment to prioritizing American security over political correctness.
