In a recent commentary, actress Eva Longoria made intense claims regarding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), suggesting that agents are committing egregious acts while “shrouded in secrecy” within jails.
“I understand that we are experiencing a challenging phase as a nation, particularly my community, which is facing various injustices and fears. The events in Minneapolis are incredibly unsettling,” Longoria remarked.
She alleged that federal agents were responsible for the “murders” of individuals like Alex Preti and Renee Good, insisting that such accusations were made before anyone had their day in court to establish guilt.
“They’re openly killing American citizens, taking children as young as five, and monitoring schools and churches,” Longoria stated. She urged her audience to “consider what could be happening behind closed doors in detention centers without cameras.”
Continuing, she noted, “There are numerous reports of citizens being denied medical assistance. Many families have reported their loved ones missing after being taken into ICE custody.”
While trying to illustrate the alarming behavior of ICE agents, Longoria argued that federal officials were attempting to portray themselves as more formidable and frightening than they actually are.
“They are indeed a threat, but it’s crucial that we remain united during this period,” she emphasized, commending “protesters” who are “demonstrating in the streets,” and stated, “We need action regarding ICE.”
Hollywood figures have been increasingly vocal about their disdain for ICE’s activities lately. Giancarlo Esposito, known for his role in Breaking Bad, urged others to join in a “revolution” against ICE. Despite an estimated fortune of $4 million, it seems he might be watching from a distance.
“This is a time for revolution,” Esposito declared, adding that while many might perish in the struggle, “the rest will survive.”
He further claimed, “They can’t overpower all of us. If the global community confronted powerful leaders, they would eliminate countless individuals, but those who remain will endure.”
