Thwarted Massacre at Gaga Concert Proves Trump Was Right on Border Security

Trump’s Deportation Policies Save Lives
A Brazilian national who was previously deported under the Trump administration has been arrested for planning a mass murder at a Lady Gaga concert in Rio de Janeiro. Luis da Silva, 44, allegedly intended to livestream the execution of children and detonate bombs during the concert, claiming the singer was a “Satanist.”
Da Silva was arrested along with a 17-year-old accomplice just hours before the concert was scheduled to begin. Authorities discovered their plans included using Molotov cocktails and explosive-laden backpacks at the event, which drew a record-breaking crowd of 2.5 million attendees.
DHS Confronts Media Misinformation
The Department of Homeland Security recently released a comprehensive list of facts to counter what they describe as false and misleading media stories during President Trump’s first 100 days in office. This effort aims to correct public perception about various high-profile deportation cases that received sympathetic coverage despite involving individuals with serious criminal backgrounds.
The list includes numerous examples of media distortions, such as portraying gang members, convicted criminals, and visa violators as innocent victims. In one case, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, linked to the notorious MS-13 gang, was deported despite media claims that the Supreme Court had ordered his return to the United States.
Border Security as a National Priority
Border czar Tom Homan has emphasized the administration’s strategy of prioritizing the deportation of the “worst” offenders first. This approach focuses limited resources on removing aliens who pose the greatest threat to public safety and national security.
The Lady Gaga concert plot represents a vindication of strict immigration enforcement policies that critics have often labeled as excessive. Despite the thwarted attack, Lady Gaga’s representatives stated they were unaware of any security threats before or during the concert, which proceeded without incident.
