Ex-New Mexico Judge Arrested in Tren de Aragua Case
The Spin
Democratic narrative
The Trump administration has further escalated its authoritarian playbook, now arresting judges to sow fear. Judge Cano and his wife provided humanitarian assistance to individuals who presented proper documentation and court dates, and claims that they were members of the Tren de Aragua are pure sensationalism.
Republican narrative
As if deliberately harboring members of a Foreign Terrorist Organization were not enough, this disgraced Democratic New Mexico judge and his wife allowed these individuals to have access to multiple firearms and destroyed evidence. While Democrats protect criminals, the Trump administration hunts them down and lock them up.
