Rep. María Elvira Salazar, a U.S. Congress member representing Florida's 27th district, has been vocal on social media regarding current political events in Latin America and U.S. immigration policies. Through her recent tweets, she expressed strong opinions on the actions of former President Trump and Honduran President Xiomara Castro.
On January 28, 2025, Rep. Salazar commented on former President Trump's deportation policy: "¡COMETES EL CRIMEN, PAGAS LA CONDENA! El Presidente Trump está cumpliendo su promesa de deportar a los criminales del Tren de Aragua que aterrorizaron a nuestras comunidades bajo el mandato del Presidente Biden." She emphasized the need for deporting criminals from the United States.
Later that day, she addressed a meeting convened by Honduran President Xiomara Castro: "Xiomara Castro convoca una reunión de todos los socialistas para este jueves en Honduras. El tema de la conversación: cómo rechazar a sus propios ciudadanos que arriesgan sus vidas viniendo a EE. UU. y legítimamente son regresados a sus países." She criticized the focus of the meeting as "deplorable."
On January 29, 2025, Rep. Salazar tweeted about an event involving President Castro: "El show anti-Trump que estaba armando la presidenta socialista Xiomara Castro tuvo que ser cancelado porque los otros Jefes de Estado de la región saben lo que ella aún no logra entender: ¡hay un nuevo Sheriff en el pueblo!" She noted that regional leaders were aware of changes in leadership dynamics.
