Quote:Trump Supporter Breaks Down After ICE Detains a Third of His Employees
Vincent Scardina, the owner of A-Plus Roofing in Key West, voted for Trump in the 2024 election, believing at the time that the Republican's deportation agenda would only extend to criminals, per NBC affiliate 6 South Florida.
But when six of his employees — totaling a third of his staff — were detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement on May 27, Scardina was puzzled.
"You get to know these guys, you become their friends — just not an employer, but a friend — and you see what happens to their family," Scardina told NBC6 of the men, who were Nicaraguan immigrants. "It's… It's quite a shock."
"Valid work permit, not even close to be expired … again, no criminal records, not here, not in Nicaragua. They are legally here. They have an authorization to stay."
Asked what he would tell the president now if he was given the chance, Scardina said: "What happened here? This situation is just totally just blatantly not at all what they said it was."
Scardina now faces the challenge of finding new employees to keep his business running — but the problem is exacerbated by Key West's remote location and other contractor businesses facing the same struggles.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
