An immigrant and restaurant owner from El Salvador finds himself in the left’s crosshairs for having the audacity to support law enforcement.
Jorge Rivas owns Sammy’s Mexican Grill in Catalina, Arizona. For the last five years, Rivas has offered free meals to law enforcement, but has only recently created outrage when it became known that the offer applied to Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, as reported byFox News.
“Everything started because a local reporter asked me that the offer that we have on the wall of the restaurant about serving free meals to law enforcement officers, if that also extended to ICE agents,” Rivas said.
“And I say, of course it does because they’re also law enforcement agents.
“You know, there are agents that work for the federal government. Obviously, working under the great leadership of President Trump. And they’re enforcing the laws that have been on the books for many years, the same laws that were enforced by other presidents like Obama, Clinton, et cetera. So they are not doing anything different. And for us to offer free meals, it’s just our way of saying thank you for being out there, putting your life on the line, risking your safety.”
The policy was made known to the broader public in a video posted toInstagramby Pulso.
The video was later reposted to social media platform X.
