Joe Rogan unexpectedly defends deported gay makeup artist
Briefly

Podcast host Joe Rogan criticized the Trump administration's recent deportation of Venezuelan asylum seeker Andry Jose Hernandez Romero, who was labeled a gang member due to tattoos. This action was part of a broader policy invoking the Alien Enemies Act, resulting in over 200 deportations without legal process. Friends and family argue many, like Hernandez, are innocent and facing severe human rights abuses while being sent back to dangerous situations. Rogan, despite supporting Trump, condemned these actions, emphasizing the need for justice in asylum cases.
Rogan said it is "horrific" a gay man seeking asylum was deported based on tattoos, highlighting how the government's actions have created a crisis of justice.
The deportations under the Alien Enemies Act have led to significant controversy, especially as many of the deportees were not actually connected to the crime organizations.
