Tatiana Martinez is a Colombian TikTok influencer residing in Los Angeles, with over 30,000 followers on the app and over 9,000 on Instagram. Who (or what) does she influence? Since her videos are completely in Spanish, it’s a little hard for this non-Spanish-speaking gringo to ascertain. However, after 35 years of living in California, I have a minute grasp of some Spanish, along with Google Translate — so, I was able to figure some of it out.
Martinez is an illegal alien herself, and has built her following by reporting ICE activity, alerting illegals how to avoid it, and telling protesters where to go to disrupt the ICE raids. So, with the promised crackdown on criminal illegals in California in general, and Los Angeles in particular, Martinez was playing with fire, to begin with, by not only staying in the country illegally, but by thumbing her nose at immigration laws and being an instrument of willful disruption to ICE enforcement activities.
On Friday, Martinez was sitting in her brand new Tesla and live-streaming one of these all-Spanish videos. In the translation of this particular video, Martinez is actually schooling new followers who criticize her for supposedly being a community activist while riding in a Tesla. One hilarious and ironic comment posted said: “tienes un tesla… tan mal no te va,” which roughly translates to, “You have a Tesla… It’s not that bad for you.”
Martinez said that she bought the car with cash from her saved earnings, that she does not get money from TikTok, and she worked three jobs in order to live the life she now lives. The translation said, “God gave me the opportunity to buy the car with cash. I didn’t buy it by asking people for money. I bought it with the sweat of my forehead.” So much for the Left’s mantra about illegals being poor people who are trying to make a better life for themselves by picking our crops and cleaning our toilets. While one cannot clearly ascertain what “work” Martinez might have done in the past, with her expensive wig and nails, it currently appears that Martinez hasn’t done a day of hard labor in a while. Along with the Tesla, she appears to be living a better life than the average American, let alone the average illegal immigrant.
Martinez then said that she would not let anyone trample on her for what she has earned by her hard work, and that her viewers should be respectful and kind to her because she came here to be an activist and work for them.
The arrogance, along with the cognitive dissonance, is absolutely stunning. However, as Martinez glibly sat in her Tesla spinning her entitled diatribe, she had no idea how bad it was about to get.

Hernando Arce, who appears to be a pro-ICE influencer, was one of the first to post Friday’s ICE takedown on X. After Martinez finished streaming the above, ICE swooped in and swooped her up. What L.A. Mayor Karen Bass calls “disrespectful” and provocative, those of us who voted for this call it poetic justice.

New: illegal alien Tatiana Martinez is a TikTok influencer (tatianamartinez_02) with 30k followers was arrested today. This woman focused on alerting crazy protesters to disrupt, harass and disrespect ICE and law enforcement officers in California. She is also a nominee for best actress Oscar award as she plays sick on the pavement. She was later released from the hospital and thrown in jail without her IPhone or Tesla.More disturbing is the fact that Los Angeles parking enforcement tow truck drivers are now following ICE vehicles and towing them as fast as the ICE Officers get to the investigation scene as shown in this video.
L.A. parking enforcement towing ICE vehicles? I would bet the farm that Mayor Bass’ fingerprints are all over that.

According to Arce and other internet reports, after they pulled Martinez from the vehicle, and as shown in the video, gently lowered her to the ground, where she was subsequently handcuffed, Martinez just lay there, possibly to appear as though she had been injured. One of the agents called 911, and Martinez was taken to a hospital and checked out before being moved into ICE detention. Another independent activist posted a different angle of Martinez being pulled from her Tesla, losing her wig and her iPhone.

ICE finally got Tatiana Martinez, an illegal in LA who specialized in doxxing and harassing fed agents.
Her shrieks are glorious.

Not all the dangerous criminals are rapists, murderers, and pedophiles: some of them are using their “influence” to target and undermine ICE enforcement and put agents’ lives in danger. Martinez’s TikTok channel appears to be active, but her diabolical influence has ultimately been cut off.
Editor’s Note: Democrat politicians and their radical supporters will do everything they can to interfere with and threaten ICE agents enforcing our immigration laws.
