Eva Longoria speaks out on ICE deportations and LA raids from Spain after leaving ‘dystopian’ US.

Eva Longoria delivered on passionate message about the ongoing unrest stemming from the ICE deportations and demonstrations in Southern California – from what appeared to be the comfort of her Spanish mansion.

Longoria, 50, spoke about the issue to her 10.6 million Instagram followers in an extended clip on Tuesday, admitting that while she was not physically in Los Angeles, her heart was with everyone impacted by the ongoing events.

The stunning star – who played the role of Gabrielle Solis over 180 episodes of the popular ABC series Desperate Housewives from 2004–2012 – was seated in a room that appeared to be from her Spain home.

Longoria said the unfolding events were ‘hard to witness from afar.

‘I can’t imagine what it’s like to be in Los Angeles right now,’ the Corpus Christi, Texas-born star added. ‘I can’t believe it’s happening in Austin, Texas. I can’t believe it’s happening all over the country.

‘And the comments and people’s reactions to it is really so surprising to me because it is un-American.’

The Mexican-American actress said she was in the state of shock watching the events unfold, saying it went against the basic tenets America’s forefathers laid out.

‘We all can agree nobody wants criminals in our country, nobody wants rapists, nobody wants drug dealers, nobody wants bad actors in our country – that’s not what’s happening,’ said the Golden Globe-nominated actress.

Longoria said that President Donald Trump was overreaching in his actions, and had not stayed true to his campaign promise to deport only criminals.

‘These roundups are happening in birthday parties, in elementary graduations, Home Depots – those are not criminals,’ she said.
