Even Joe Rogan believes that this aspect of Trump’s deportation policy is horrible
Podcaster Joe Rogan offered some surprise criticism to the Trump administration during the weekend, describing the possibility of innocent people being swept in mass deportations such as “horrible.”
In the Saturday’s episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience”, Rogan praised President Donald Trump for taking energetic measures against immigration of “parts of the world infested with crime” on the southern border of the United States while talking with the British podcasters Francis Foster and Konstantin Kisin.
Even so, he expressed concern that non -criminals could also be attacked, pointing out: “The point is that you should be afraid that people who are not criminals are in the in the process of, deported and sent to the prisons of El Salvador, like that type of shit.”
They then alluded to the case of Andry José Hernández Romero, a Gay Venezuelan man who worked as a makeup artist and hairdresser, and found asylum in the United States after fleeing from his homeland, where he was persecuted for his sexuality and political views.
Last month, Trump invoked the Alien enemies Law of 1798, a war law rarely used, to address alleged members of the Venezuelan Gang Train of Aragua for deportation.

Earlier this week, it was reported that Hernández Romero had been “deported without any notice for him or his lawyer” to a prison in El Salvador because he has a couple of crown tattoos, designed by officials to be evidence of their links with Aragua train, in their arms.
Hernández Romero, 31, has denied any association with a Aragua train.
“That is horrible,” Rogan said about the case. “That is bad for the cause. As, the cause is:” We are going to get the gang members. “Everyone agrees. [let] Innocent gay hairdressers are grouped with gangs. ”
Later in the chat, Rogan, an open defender of Trump, who was widely considered critical for the president’s victory in the 2024 elections, also hit the approach of the administration on general policy, which he described as: “Never admit his fault. Never admit that he is wrong.”
“This is what we are seeing with the signal, and this is what we are seeing with this,” he said. “I suppose someone has warned them about the fact that he could have gathered this random hairdresser and accused him of being a member of a gang … Does the prison know now? Can they talk to that guy? Can they get him out of there?”
