A Trump-backed businessman expressed regret for supporting the former president after federal immigration officials detained his Venezuelan fiancée, Yasmin Suarez Reyes. John Gannon, owner of over 1,000 billboards and a hotel in Mexico, claimed ICE agents unlawfully seized Suarez Reyes at Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport in July. His attorney, Anne Kennedy, stated she entered the U.S. legally with pending asylum status, held a work permit, and had no criminal record. Suarez Reyes has been incarcerated for nearly two weeks despite complying with immigration laws. Gannon criticized Trump's deportation policies for targeting law-abiding citizens, urging the president to focus on criminals instead. Critics like journalist Molly Knight dismissed Gannon's complaints as hypocritical, given Trump's history of racist rhetoric against immigrants. Gun safety activist Shannon Watts questioned why personal impact was necessary to oppose harmful policies. The incident highlights tensions between immigration enforcement and individual rights, raising concerns about the fairness and legality of deportation practices under current administration policies.
