MS-13 Suspect Murders After Sanctuary Release, UK Migrant Crisis Explodes, Nicki Minaj Backs Trump

00:09
Hey, what is up, Patriots, and happy Monday. I hope you had a fantastic weekend. We are now T-minus three days till Christmas, so if you haven't finished your shopping yet and are specifically talking to the men listening, you are officially in panic mode. This is O'Connor's Quick Strike, and I'm John O'Connor. Three stories the mainstream media won't cover or will completely twist beyond recognition, delivered in roughly 15 minutes or so. This one may run a little long. No fluff, no BS, no filler.

00:38
Just the unvarnished truth peppered with my own take on what's really going on. As a heads up, I know I will have an episode out for O'Connor's rights stand tomorrow. I have not yet decided if I'm going to do a Christmas Eve episode for Quickstrike. I may or may not. As I know with my day job, my software programming, there is going to be a ton of loose ends that need to be tightened before I go on holiday. So I'm gonna probably play this one by ear.

01:05
Feel free to give me your opinion on X at O'Connor Podcasts. Should I take the day off or should I get my butt to work and get out on a Christmas Eve episode? I'll put a poll up on X. Well, today is Monday, December 22nd, and I've got three stories that are wild. We are leading with an illegal immigrant, MS-13 suspect who was arrested seven times in Fairfax County, had charges dropped by a Soros-backed DA,

01:33
was released despite an ice detainer and then murdered someone the next day. This is what sanctuary cities do, patriots.

01:44
Then we are covering the massive illegal immigration crisis hitting the UK. Saturday saw 803 migrants cross the English Channel in a single day. The highest December total ever. And it shows that this is a global problem that weak leaders refuse to solve. And we are closing with something you are not going to believe. Rap Superstar

02:11
Nicki Minaj just appeared at the biggest conservative gathering in America, praised President Trump on stage, and her political transformation from Obama supporter to Christian persecution advocate is one of the most shocking cultural shifts I've seen. Let's get into it. All right, Patriots, I want you to pay very close attention to this story because this is the exact nightmare scenario that sanctuary city policies create.

02:41
And I want you to remember the names of the people responsible when I'm done. Last week, an illegal immigrant from El Salvador, a suspected MS-13 gang member, murdered a man in Fairfax County, Virginia. His name is Marvin Morales Ortiz. He's 23 years old. And before he killed someone, he'd been arrested seven times in Fairfax County alone. Let that sink in. Seven arrests. And you know how many times he was deported?

03:11
Zero. Here's how this absolute travesty unfolded. Morales-Ortiz entered the United States illegally. The Department of Homeland Security has him flagged as a suspected MS-13 member, one of the most brutal, vicious gangs on the planet. These are the animals President Trump has been hunting down and deporting by the thousands. Between his arrests, Morales-Ortiz racked up charges including assault, drug possession,

03:40
and weapons violations. But here's where it gets so aggravating. In 2022, the Biden administration marked him as a non-enforcement priority. Translation, even though he's here illegally and suspected of gang membership, ICE was told to leave him alone. Why? Because the Biden regime decided that unless you're a convicted murderer or terrorist, you get a free pass.

04:10
So Morales-Ortiz kept committing crimes, kept getting arrested, kept being released. Now fast forward to Tuesday of last week, December 16th. Fairfax County police arrest him again. This time it's for malicious wounding and brandishing a firearm. Those are serious charges. We are talking violent felonies. ICE immediately files a detainer request. That's the official request saying, hey,

04:39
When you're done with this guy, don't release him to the streets. Hold him so we can deport him. But here's what happened instead. The Soros-backed Commonwealth's attorney, that's the local DA, uh a guy named Steve Descano, dropped the charges. Just drop them. No prosecution, no consequences, nothing. And Fairfax County, a sanctuary jurisdiction, refused to honor the ICE detainer. They let him walk.

05:09
The next morning, the very next day, Marvin Morales-Ortiz walked into someone's home in Fairfax County and murdered them. The Department of Homeland Security released a statement that said, Sanctuary politicians have blood on their hands. This individual should have been in ICE custody heading for deportation. Instead, a Soros-funded prosecutor dropped serious charges and a sanctuary county released a dangerous criminal back onto the streets. Now...

05:38
An innocent American is dead. Here's my question for you, patriots. How many more Americans have to die before we end sanctuary city policies? Think about this. Seven arrests, suspected MS-13 member, violent charges including brandishing a firearm, ICE detainer filed, and what did Fairfax County do? They released him. And what did the DA do? He dropped the charges.

06:07
This isn't an accident, Patriots. This isn't incompetence. This is policy. This is the left's open border ideology playing out exactly as designed. They care more about protecting criminal illegal aliens than protecting you. And you know what makes this even more disgusting? The DA was bankrolled by George Soros. Soros has spent millions electing radical prosecutors across America

06:35
who refuse to prosecute criminals. And the results are exactly what you'd expect. Crime skyrockets, criminals walk free, and innocent Americans pay the price. President Trump has made it clear. His administration will withhold federal funding from any sanctuary jurisdiction that refuses to cooperate with ICE. And you know what the left says? That's unconstitutional. That's authoritarian.

07:05
You know what's actually unconstitutional? Releasing a suspected gang member with seven arrests back onto the street so he can murder someone. The victim's name hasn't been released yet, but that person had a family, had friends, had a life. And that life was stolen by an illegal immigrant who should have been deported years ago. But instead, the Biden administration marked him non-enforcement priority. A Soros DA dropped his charges.

07:35
and a sanctuary county let him walk. This is the Democrat playbook, Patriots. Protect criminals. Demonize ICE. Call border security racist. And when Americans die as a result, blame Trump for being divisive. I'm done with it. You should be done with it. And every single American should be demanding that their city, their county, their state ends sanctuary policies immediately. Because the next victim could be you.

08:04
or someone you love, and by then it'll be too late. Two. All right, let's head across the pond and talk about something that proves illegal immigration is a global crisis that weak leaders refuse to solve. Saturday, December 21st, just two days ago, 803 illegal migrants crossed the English Channel in small boats and landed in the United Kingdom.

08:30
That's the highest single-day total since October when 1,075 crossed in one day. But here's the kicker. This is the highest December total since the crisis began back in 2018. And 2025 isn't even over yet. And the UK has already seen over 41,000 illegal crossings compared to 36,816 for all of 2024. So the crisis...

09:00
is getting worse. Not better, worse. And you know who's getting absolutely destroyed over this? UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. He took office promising to smash the gangs running these smuggling operations. He said he'd stop the boats. He said he'd secure the border. And what's happened? The boats keep coming, the gangs keep operating, and British citizens are furious.

09:28
Nigel Farage, who's basically the UK's version of a MAGA fighter, called Starmer, gutless and useless. And you know what? He's right. Here's why this story matters to you, Patriots, even though it's happening thousands of miles away. Because illegal immigration isn't just an American problem. It's happening in Europe. It's happening in the UK. It's happening across the Western world. And the pattern is exactly the same everywhere.

09:58
Weak leaders, open borders, smuggling gangs, overwhelmed systems, and citizens who are sick of it, but whose government refuses to listen. Sound familiar? The difference is we have President Trump. The UK is stuck with Keir Starmer. France is stuck with Emmanuel Macron. Germany is stuck with whoever's running that train wreck right now. But here is what connects all of it.

10:26
Globalist politicians who believe borders are outdated in national sovereignty is racist. They'd rather virtue signal about compassion while their countries are invaded than actually do the job they were elected to do. And the British people? They are watching 803 migrants land on their shores in a single day and they are thinking the same thing Americans thought back in 2016. We need someone who will actually fight for us.

10:56
And you know what the UK needs? They need their own Trump. Someone who will say enough. We are closing the border. We are deporting criminals. We are putting our citizens first. But they don't have that yet. Not yet at least. And in the meantime, the boats keep coming. The gangs keep smuggling. And Keir Starmer keeps proving that the globalist establishment has no idea how to solve this crisis. Because they don't want...

11:26
to solve it. They want the chaos. They want the demographic change. They want the destruction of national identity. And the only thing standing in their way, leaders like Trump who actually put their countries first. So when you see 803 migrants crossing the English Channel in December, remember this, it's not just the UK's problem. It's a preview of what happens when weak leaders refuse to secure borders.

11:55
And it's exactly what Trump is fighting to prevent here in America. One. All right, Patriots, buckle up for this one because I'm about to tell you a story that sounds like fiction, but is absolutely real. And it happened yesterday. Nicki Minaj, one of the biggest rap stars on the planet, appeared as a surprise guest at Turning Point USA's America Fest in Phoenix. She walked on stage with Eric Kirk, Charlie Kirk's widow, who now runs TPUSA.

12:25
and spent 20 minutes praising President Trump, calling out California Governor Gavin Newsom, and talking about standing up for persecuted Christians around the world. If you told me a year ago this would happen, I would have said, you're insane. But it happened, and it's one of the most shocking cultural shifts I've personally ever seen. So let me explain who Nicki Minaj is, where she came from politically, and why this matters.

12:55
Nicki Minaj is a 42 year old rapper from Trinidad who moved to the US as a child. She's sold over 100 million records worldwide. She's been nominated for 12 Grammys. She's one of the most successful female artists in music history. And her music? Well, let me be very clear about this. Her music catalog is filled with sexually explicit content. We are talking graphic sexual references, profanity, laced verses,

13:24
and material that would make most parents turn off the radio if their kids were in the car. Her biggest hits have included explicit content about her body, sexual acts, and language that I can't even reference on this show. This isn't Christian music, folks. This isn't even close to the kind of content you'd expect from someone speaking at a conservative Christian youth conference. So how did we get from that to Nicki Minaj on stage at AmericaFest praising Trump?

13:54
It's a journey and it starts with her earlier political views. Back in 2012, Minaj openly supported Barack Obama. In 2016, she supported Hillary Clinton, telling Billboard magazine she identified with Hillary's struggles as a woman. She called Trump's campaign childish and hilarious. In 2018, she criticized Trump's family separation policy at the border, saying as an illegal immigrant herself at the age of five,

14:23
The policy terrified her. So up until a few years ago, Minaj was a pretty standard Hollywood liberal. Obama, Hillary, anti-Trump, the whole package. And then something happened. Actually, three things happened. They completely changed her trajectory. The first turning point came in September, 2021. COVID vaccines.

14:49
Minaj posted a tweet that absolutely exploded on the internet. She said her cousin in Trinidad wouldn't get the vaccine because his friend got it, became impotent, and developed swollen testicles. His fiance called off the wedding. Now, was this story true? Who knows? But here's what happened next. The mainstream media went berserk. Joy Reid attacked her on MSNBC. oh

15:17
Dr. Fauci called her irresponsible. The Health Minister of Trinidad said she wasted their time chasing down a false claim. The Left tried to destroy her questioning the narrative. But you know who defended her? Tucker Carlson. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Conservatives. And I think that's when Minaj realized something. The Left will destroy you if you don't fall in line.

15:43
They will attack you, they will mock you, they will try to ruin your career. All because you asked a question. The second turning point came in November of this year, just last month. President Trump posted on Truth Social about the persecution of Christians in Nigeria. Since 2009, estimated 50,000 to 100,000 Christians have been murdered by Islamic groups like Boko Haram. It's one of the deadliest places on earth.

16:12
for Christians. Minaj responded to Trump's post saying, no group should ever be persecuted for practicing their religion. We don't have to share the same beliefs in order to respect each other. And you know what happened? Trump's UN ambassador, Mike Walz, invited her to speak at the United Nations. On November 18th, Nicki Minaj gave a speech at the UN alongside Ambassador Walz. She thanked President Trump for prioritizing the issue

16:41
and for his leadership on the global stage in calling for urgent action to defend Christians in Nigeria. So let me say that again. Nicki Minaj, rap superstar, known for her explicit lyrics, gave a speech at the United Nations about Christian persecution and thanked Donald Trump. The third turning point happened yesterday, AmericaFest.

17:05
Erica Kirk brought Minaj out as a surprise guest honoring her late husband Charlie's tradition of surprise appearances at these events. And what did Minaj do? She read her anti-newsome tweets out loud. She said, It's the end of the road for you, my love. Get on the nearest jet ski and let that beautiful hair blow in the wind. She praised Trump saying, He's given so many people hope that there's a chance to beat the bad guys and to win and to do it with your head held high.

17:35
and your integrity intact. She called Trump and Vice President Vance relatable, saying, I know that they are one of us. They haven't lost touch of the world. Erica Kirk asked her about the backlash she's receiving from the entertainment industry for supporting Trump. You know what Minaj said? I didn't notice. We don't even think about them. We are too busy building. That is the attitude we need, Patriots. We are too busy building.

18:04
And then Minaj said something really important. She said, it's okay to change your mind. Think about that. How many people are trapped in political views they don't even believe anymore because they are afraid of what people will think? How many people secretly agree with Trump but won't say it out loud because they are scared of being canceled? Nicki Minaj just gave millions of people permission to change their minds, to think for themselves, to stop.

18:32
being bullied into silence. Now, let me address the elephant in the room. Why would Erica Kirk have someone like Nicki Minaj on stage at a conservative Christian youth conference? Because I believe this is bigger than politics. This is a cultural moment. You've got one of the most famous artists in the world, someone who built her career in the liberal entertainment industry, standing on stage at the biggest conservative gathering in America,

19:02
and saying, I support Trump. I support religious freedom. And I'm not afraid of the backlash. Well, that sends a message. It tells young people that you don't have to go along with the crowd. It tells them that standing up for what's right is more important than fitting in. And yeah, Minaj's music is explicit. It's not my cup of tea. And yeah, her past doesn't look like a typical conservatives. But you know what?

19:31
Grace exists. Change exists. And if we only accept people who've been perfect their whole lives, we are going to have a very small movement. The left is furious about this. They are calling her a sellout. They are saying she's desperate for attention. They are trying to cancel her. But here's the thing, Patriots. Nicki Minaj has 200 million followers across social media.

20:00
She's a massive cultural force. And even a fraction of her fans start questioning the narrative, start thinking for themselves, start realizing that maybe Trump isn't the monster the media says he is. That begins to change everything. This is how cultural change happens. Not through politicians, not through think tanks, through people with influence saying, I changed my mind.

20:28
And it's okay if you do too. So is Nicki Minaj the perfect conservative spokesperson? No. But is her transformation from Obama supporter to Trump advocate significant? Absolutely. Because it shows that people are waking up. They are seeing through the lies. They are rejecting the bullying and the cancel culture. And that terrifies the left more than anything. So there you have it, Patriots.

20:57
Three stories you simply won't hear covered honestly anywhere else. Story one. An illegal immigrant MS-13 suspect was arrested seven times in Fairfax County, had charges dropped by Soros back to the DA, and was released despite an ICE detainer and murdered someone the next day. This is what sanctuary cities do. They protect criminals and endanger Americans. The victim's blood is on their hands. Story two.

21:26
The UK saw 803 illegal migrants cross the English Channel on Saturday, the highest December total ever. The UK is now over 41,000 crossings for 2025, and Prime Minister Keir Starmer is getting destroyed for his failure to stop the boats. This proves illegal immigration is a global crisis that weak leaders refuse to solve, and it shows why strong leaders like Trump are critical. Story three.

21:56
Rap superstar Nicki Minaj appeared at AmericaFest yesterday, praised Donald Trump, called out Kevin Newsom, and talked about standing up for persecuted Christians. Her political journey from Obama supporter to vaccine skeptic to UN speaker to Trump advocate is one of the most shocking cultural shifts we've seen, and it shows that people can change their minds when they stop being bullied into silence. What connects all three stories?

22:25
The gap between what's actually happening and what the media tells you is happening. The media won't tell you about Fairfax County releasing a seven-time arrestee who then commits murder. They won't connect the dots between sanctuary policies and dead Americans. The media won't tell you the UK's illegal immigration crisis is worse than ever. They won't admit that open border policies are failing everywhere. And the media

22:52
definitely won't tell you that Nicki Minaj is praising Trump and advocating for Christians because that destroys their narrative that only uneducated people support Trump. But you know the truth because you are here because you are willing to listen to stories the mainstream media won't cover. So here's my question for you. How many more Fairfax County murders will it take before we end Sanctuary Cities?

23:18
How many more boats have to cross the English Channel before the UK gets a leader who will actually fight? And how many more cultural figures like Nicki Minaj have to break away from the left before we realize the entire narrative is collapsing? Think about it, and remember the truth is out there. You just have to be willing to look for it. This is O'Connor's Quick Strike and I'm John O'Connor. Merry Christmas to you all, and as always,

23:47
Hold the line, Patriots, unapologetically. uh
