Illegal migrant who tried to hijack a United Airlines flight claimed to be trans and HIV positive — and was granted asylum

The lunatic illegal migrant who allegedly tried to hijack a United Airlines flight out of New Jersey by threatening to detonate a bomb reportedly evaded deportation in 2019 by claiming he was trans.

Honduran Rony Alexander Gomez-Alberto, who was deported from the United States twice, was granted asylum in 2020 after alleging that he would be persecuted back home for being transgender, law enforcement sources told The Daily Wire.

Immigration officials previously told The Post that Gomez-Alberto, 34, was arrested twice in the US and deported – first in September 2011 near El Indio, Texas, and again in October 2014 in Columbus, New Mexico.

The slippery migrant managed to make his way back into the US a third time in 2019, entering through a port of entry in San Ysidro, California, where he said he was transgender and feared returning to his native Honduras.

Gomez-Alberto claimed he would be targeted over his sexuality, and reportedly told federal authorities he was HIV positive.

A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said Gomez-Alberto’s criminal history includes felony bomb threat, felony threat — terroristic state offenses — and disorderly conduct.

He was arrested by the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport Monday night after he attempted to storm the cockpit of United Airlines Flight 2174 and claimed he was holding a bomb.

“Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, criminal illegal aliens are NOT welcome in the United States,” the spokesperson said in a statement following Gomez-Alberto’s arrest.

The plane’s 46 passengers and six crew members safely touched down in New Orleans around 11:15 p.m., according to a United Airlines spokesperson.

Trans should be the main reason he was booted.

How did he get on an airplane? Don’t they check ID? Why was I thinking I had to get a “REAL ID” to get on a plane? Are there exceptions for trans aids mental patient illegal aliens?

Imagine if he would have started quoting the Constitution. He would have been thrown out on his ear.

I am glad that lefties have much suicidal empathy. They get what they deserve for such self-loathing insanity.

Unfortunately, the negative results of their self-destructive decisions often effects us all. It would be great if their decisions didn’t effect us all...and only they experienced the consequences.

If you had kept up with The Potato administration when they were in power, they were flying mojados into the USA and dispersing them throughout with zero knowledge of who they were.

TSA checkpoints and gate agent checks were bypassed.

Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, criminal illegal aliens are NOT welcome in the United States.

A whole lot of Democrats, who in fact, will control of both houses of congress, believe criminal illegal aliens ARE welcome in the United States.
