The Trump era is back underway. The establishment is utterly terrified of him.
But Trump was just blown away by what a U.S. Senator unveiled in Congress.
Senator Marsha Blackburn Introduces Legislation to Deport Convicted S*xual Offenders and Strengthen Border Security
On Tuesday, Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee introduced a new set of legislative proposals aimed at bolstering immigration enforcement and addressing s*xual crimes committed by illegal migrants. The bills, known as the “Preventing Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act and the Creating Obstructions Necessary to Address Illegal and Nefarious Entry Rapidly (CONTAINER) Act,” seek to prevent individuals convicted of s*x offenses or domestic violence from entering the U.S. and provide greater authority to border states in managing illegal immigration.
Blackburn’s proposed legislation has gained attention amid the growing bipartisan push for stronger immigration enforcement measures, especially following the election of former President Donald Trump. According to texts shared with the Daily Caller News Foundation, these proposals reflect a concerted effort by lawmakers from both sides of the aisle to address border security concerns and criminal activities associated with illegal immigration.
One of the primary focuses of Blackburn’s legislation is the prevention of illegal immigrants convicted of s*xual offenses from entering or remaining in the United States. “No illegal immigrant who commits an act of s*xual violence against U.S. citizens should be allowed to enter or remain in our country,” Blackburn stated. She emphasized the common-sense nature of the bill, underscoring the need to protect U.S. citizens from dangerous criminals.
In particular, Blackburn pointed to the tragic cases of Laken Riley and Rachel Morin, two victims whose m*rders have drawn attention to the issue of violent crimes committed by illegal immigrants. “We need to keep dangerous individuals like the violent criminals who k*lled Laken Riley and Rachel Morin off our streets and out of our country,” she added.
Under the provisions of the bill, illegal immigrants who have been convicted of, or have admitted to, s*x offenses or domestic violence would be banned from entering the U.S. Those already residing in the country would face deportation. This legislation has already seen progress in the House, where a similar bill introduced by South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace passed earlier this month.
Empowering Border States with the CONTAINER Act
The second major component of Blackburn’s proposal, the CONTAINER Act, seeks to grant border states the authority to temporarily place portable structures on federal land to help manage illegal immigration. This would allow states to address border security concerns without needing prior federal approval. According to Blackburn’s office, the legislation would permit states to maintain these structures on federal land for up to one year, with extensions granted by the Secretaries of Agriculture and the Interior.
In her statement, Blackburn criticized the Biden administration for what she described as an inadequate response to border security. “Under President Biden, Border Patrol encountered more than 10 million illegal immigrants at our southern border, turning every single state into a border state,” Blackburn said. She also referenced the Biden-Harris administration’s efforts to limit certain border security measures, such as the use of shipping containers and razor wire, which have been deployed to deter illegal crossings. “The Biden-Harris administration also exacerbated the problem by trying to stop the use of measures that help secure the border,” she argued.

The senator believes that the CONTAINER Act will provide essential tools for border states to better protect their communities. “This legislation would give border states the explicit authority to protect their communities and help stop the flow of traffickers, drugs, and criminals at the southern border,” Blackburn continued.
Bipartisan Support for Tougher Immigration Policies
The introduction of these bills comes at a time when tougher border policies are gaining traction among Democrats as well. In fact, just hours after Trump was sworn into office, the Senate passed the Laken Riley Act, which mandates the detention of illegal immigrants involved in theft-related crimes. That bill was supported by a bipartisan coalition, including 12 Democrats from swing states.
Trump’s administration also focused heavily on border security, rolling out executive orders that declared a national emergency at the border, designated cartels as terrorist organizations, and sought to revoke birthright citizenship for children born to illegal migrant parents. These actions further solidified the Trump administration’s tough stance on immigration and set the tone for ongoing debates over how to address illegal immigration and its associated issues.
Senator Marsha Blackburn’s introduction of the “Preventing Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act” and the “CONTAINER Act” marks a significant push for stronger immigration enforcement, especially regarding s*xual crimes committed by illegal migrants. There’s real, growing bipartisan support for tougher border policies, with an emphasis on protecting U.S. citizens from criminal elements and empowering states to take action on border security.
Donald Trump filled the headlines on his first day in office with executive decisions that made Washington, D.C.’s collective head spin. They were not joking around when his allies said there would be a barrage of executive orders to turn the ship around from Joe Biden’s awful tenure in the White House.
