andy harris' incompetence

Since trump's election, andy has gotten very active on The Platform Formerly Known As Twitter.  It's not like he uses the platform to talk with his constituents.  He uses it to talk at people and promote trump's agenda. 

His latest tweet celebrated the deportation of Juan Carlos Vasquez-Natera, an immigrant convicted of solicitation of a minor for sex.  My outrage wasn't that Vasquez was being deported.  My outrage was why he was let go to walk the streets in the first place.

Turns out, Maryland law does punish these kind of offenses
severely, to the tune of up to ten years inprison and/or $25,000 fine for the first offense under the Maryland Criminal Law Code, Section 3-324.  Once indicted, ICE is notified.  In this case, it appears ICE didn't wait for a trial and picked Vasquez up for deportation. 

andy harris, our congressman, is celebrating justice denied and ignored a loophole in our immigration laws.  Vasquez should've been ruled a flight risk (illegal immigrant) and held in a Maryland prison until his trial.  Once he served any prison time for the offense, he should've been turned over to ICE and deported.  If, by chance, he were found "not guilty," ICE should've been in the court room to escort him to a detention center to be deported.  ICE shouldn't have had to go looking for Vasquez wandering the streets.

But andy had a chance to don his cheerleader uniform and sing the praises for his king, trump, rather than fix loopholes in our laws.  Remember how andy failed when 2026 comes around.
