Recently, Nebraska’s State Senator Megan Hunt, a member of the Democratic Party, took to Twitter/X for a fiery outburst that has sparked considerable controversy. In her remarks, she appeared to advocate for an illegal immigrant facing severe criminal charges, while labeling U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as the “Gestapo.”
The fervor of her defense raises eyebrows—especially considering the individual in question is not just an innocent newcomer to the U.S., but reportedly a notorious gang member from El Salvador, wanted for multiple counts of aggravated homicide and affiliated with terrorist organizations. This isn’t exactly the profile of a typical asylum seeker.
Twitchy reported:
This individual is not some misguided soul on a quest for a better life; rather, he is on El Salvador’s ‘Most Wanted’ list, with serious charges hanging over him. This particular case involved a high-ranking member of the MS-13 gang, captured alongside a notorious associate also wanted for murder.
While many across the nation would typically applaud such law enforcement efforts, some in the Democratic Party seem determined to obstruct them.
One local resident pointed out Hunt’s apparent opposition to the arrest and deportation of such individuals, questioning how this stance truly serves the interests of Nebraska’s populace.
Absolutely. Fuck ICE and everyone who supports them. These thugs are America’s gestapo, our modern national shame, and must be stopped at every opportunity. https://t.co/xPkGjTG94d

Whatever public safety benefits ICE claims to provide are undermined by the damage it has done to communities and to the country’s moral authority. Saying “Abolish ICE” is not extreme. What’s extreme is supporting a government agency that behaves like a domestic Gestapo. Idiot

Her legislative blog claims she is a “dedicated advocate for the people of Nebraska”.
Does this description hold up in light of her recent statements and actions?
