Nevada Voters Side With Law and Order as Americans Overwhelmingly Back Deporting Criminal Illegals

Americans are done pretending. The country has reached a blunt and overdue consensus that violent criminal illegal immigrants should be deported and that local law enforcement should work hand in glove with federal immigration authorities instead of sabotaging them.
A new White House analysis confirms what voters have been shouting for years. Across party lines and demographic groups, Americans overwhelmingly support deporting criminal illegal aliens and backing cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Not the slogans. Not the cable news theatrics. The actual policy.
This is not about politics. It is about public safety. And voters know it.
For years, Democrats tried to sell Nevadans a fantasy. They claimed opposing ICE cooperation was compassionate. They claimed sanctuary policies made communities safer. They claimed enforcing immigration law was somehow extreme. That illusion is collapsing under the weight of reality.
Nevada families are living with the consequences. Drug trafficking corridors. Repeat offenders cycling through the system. Local law enforcement handcuffed by politicians more worried about activist applause than victims of crime. Voters see it. They feel it. And now they are rejecting it.
The numbers tell the story Democrats cannot spin. Americans want criminal illegals deported. Americans want local police to cooperate with federal immigration authorities. Americans want the law enforced. The public is far ahead of the political class.
That puts Nevada Democrats in a bind of their own making.
For years, they stood shoulder to shoulder with the radical left and declared ICE the enemy. They blocked cooperation agreements. They smeared law enforcement. They chose ideological purity over public safety. Now voters are telling them flatly that they were wrong.
This is especially dangerous territory in Nevada, where swing voters and working class families do not have the luxury of pretending crime is theoretical. When violent criminals are released back into communities because politicians refuse to cooperate with ICE, it is not an abstract policy failure. It is a neighbor hurt. A family shattered. A street made less safe.
Democrats can try to change the subject. They can accuse critics of fearmongering. They can hide behind talking points written by progressive advocacy groups. None of it works anymore.
The American people have decided. Deport criminal illegal immigrants. Enforce the law. Let law enforcement do their jobs.
Nevada voters are not extreme. They are practical. And they are done being told that common sense is controversial.
The question now is simple. Will Nevada Democrats finally listen to voters, or will they keep surrendering to the far left and paying the price at the ballot box.
