Senator Mark Kelly, the astronaut-turned-politician and perennial gun-grabber, took to MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe’ to unleash a full-throated assault on ICE, whipping up Democratic fury against the agency tasked with enforcing our immigration laws. In a segment that Larry O’Connor dissected on his LARRY show, Kelly framed ICE agents as the real villains in America’s border crisis, igniting a chain reaction of leftist lunacy—from Chris Murphy’s unhinged rants to broader Dem pushes against the SAVE Act, which would mandate proof of citizenship for voter registration. This isn’t just partisan theater; it’s a calculated escalation in the sanctuary state playbook, where weakening ICE dovetails with open-border policies that flood communities with unvetted migrants, many tied to criminal networks smuggling fentanyl and firearms across our porous southern flank.
For the 2A community, Kelly’s ICE-bashing is a flashing red warning light. Remember, this is the same guy who, alongside his late wife Gabby Giffords, has relentlessly pushed universal background checks and assault weapon bans, positioning himself as the moderate face of gun control while Arizona bleeds jobs and security from migrant surges. By demonizing ICE, Democrats like Kelly are greenlighting chaos that directly threatens Second Amendment rights: cartel gun trafficking thrives in the shadows of sanctuary cities, where overwhelmed local cops can’t keep up, and armed smugglers exploit weak enforcement to arm MS-13 and Tren de Aragua thugs stateside. The implications are stark—if ICE is neutered, expect skyrocketing street crime with smuggled Glocks and AKs, forcing law-abiding gun owners into a defensive crouch while Kelly’s crew lectures us on common-sense reforms. It’s no coincidence Netflix execs are getting Republican grillings for woke content betraying families; this is cultural warfare bleeding into policy that endangers us all.
The 2A fight has always been about self-defense against threats foreign and domestic, and Kelly’s MSNBC moment underscores how border anarchy is the ultimate force multiplier for anti-gun zealots. As O’Connor highlights, bucking the SAVE Act keeps non-citizen voting in play, diluting the electoral power of pro-2A patriots. Gun owners must connect these dots: support ICE, demand real border security, and call out Kelly’s hypocrisy. His revolution isn’t about humanity—it’s about remaking America in a way that leaves us disarmed and defenseless. Stay vigilant, arm up legally, and vote these border-betrayers out.
