A young man who was in the United States illegally has made stunning remarks during an interview that have set the standard for personal responsibility and maturity.
Earlier this week, “Ted,” sat down with The Telegraph to detail his experience of being deported from America back to his nation of birth, the United Kingdom. Per his request, The Telegraph changed his name to “Ted” for the interview.
“Ted” is a British national, but his parents took him to America illegally when he was a child.
His first removal order was in 2013. He was just 12 years old at the time.
“Ted” revealed to The Telegraph that ICE detained him last year while on his way to the airport to go to a friend’s wedding. He was then taken to a county jail and held there for three weeks.
The man then revealed that he was loaded onto an American Airlines flight to London Heathrow Airport, where he was released.
Despite this inconvenience, Ted not only refused to make excuses for his actions but also defended Trump’s immigration policies, specifically pointing to the chaos in Minnesota.
“Any president who wants a lawfully ordered nation has the right and the duty and the obligation to enforce deportation,” “Ted” said.
At the end, “Ted” seemed to suggest that Trump was not going far enough in cracking down on illegals, saying the president should have sent the National Guard to Minnesota after withdrawing DHS forces.

TED: In the summer or early autumn of last year, I was arrested, detained, and deported by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Chicago.
I was actually on the way to the airport, heading to a friend’s wedding. I had just gotten into an Uber on the way to the airport from my apartment.
They had a specific warrant for me…They knew my work schedule. They had been monitoring me.
I was taken to a county jail, where I was detained in a cell with maybe 40 other detainees. I was there for three weeks, then loaded onto an American Airlines flight and taken to London Heathrow Airport, at which point I was released.
I’m not making excuses. I should have been deported.
There is an illegal immigration crisis in America, and any president who wants a lawfully ordered nation has the right and the duty and the obligation to enforce deportation.
And yet, with what just happened in Minnesota, you saw these leftist agitators that were impeding law enforcement. They were obstructing the enforcement of the law in (ICE’s) attempts to detain and deport illegal immigrants, especially criminal illegal immigrants.
And what Trump did is he pulled the Department of Homeland Security out of Minnesota. I think, if anything, if he were being consistent with his policies, he should have brought in the National Guard and doubled down.
How refreshing to see someone take responsibility, refuse to play the victim, and keep a level head. Almost all illegal immigrants immediately point the finger at anyone other than themselves.
For good measure, “Ted” also called Britain “a dump” compared to America. Considering the loss of basic freedoms, far-left policies, and appeasement of radical Islam in the U.K., it’s tough to argue with “Ted’s” assessment.
