The Patriot Post® · Canadian Hoser Slaps American Teen
A Canadian woman is in ICE custody at the Delaney Hall detention center after being accused of assault over the July 4th weekend. Kaitlyn Tracey and her husband contend that the arrest is a witch hunt and that she is being assailed because she’s a leftist … in New Jersey.
Here’s the ridiculous context.
Tracey was out on the Point Pleasant boardwalk when she spotted a group of teenage girls wearing patriotic gear. It was the Fourth of July, so of course they had on patriotic attire. One of the girls, reportedly 16 years of age, was wearing a pair of sweatpants displaying pro-Trump memorabilia or possibly pro-ICE support (reports conflict on that detail). Tracey’s little Canadian head exploded over the political expression, so she confronted the teenager.
According to the New York Post, Tracey filmed the verbal confrontation, then stopped the camera in order to slap the child twice with an open hand — once in the face and once on the body. Police have corroborating evidence for this assault from witnesses and video surveillance.
Tracey was arrested shortly after the incident, but this is where the plot thickens: She is an illegal immigrant. Tracey came to the U.S. on a short-term visa in 2024 and has overstayed her visa by about a year and a half, thus breaking the law. She now faces a litany of other charges. After her arrest, she was taken into ICE custody and transferred to Delaney Hall.
Delaney Hall is the facility at which leftists rioted due to reports of poor conditions and staff not taking care of inmates. Those charges were found to be erroneous by no less an authority than border czar Tom Homan.
Tracey’s husband, Matthew Geroni, is an American TikTok influencer. He sent a video message to his followers in which he begs for help and talks about the “terrible conditions” at Delaney Hall.

Predictably, Geroni neglected to tell his followers why his wife was arrested. Slapping a child and attacking her freedom of expression should not only be universally denounced but also be worthy of deportation. We don’t need leftist Canadians smacking American teens because they don’t believe in our First Amendment. But Geroni is silent on those details because leaving out his wife’s criminal act makes her more of a victim.
Geroni has 140,000 TikTok followers, and his entire genre seems to be anti-right-wing trolling. He made videos with the caption, “Praying the entire Trump family gets cancer. And I mean everybody, like little kids and s**t.” He also depicted the aforementioned Delaney Hall protesters as “peaceful” and the cops as thugs.
Geroni has created a GoFundMe, claiming that the teenagers picked a fight with Tracey and provoked her by pushing and shoving her because his wife was wearing “punk” clothes. The GoFundMe was taken down immediately because the platform does not permit fundraising for the legal defense of violent crimes.
So, a Canadian leftist fooled around and found out. Will she be deported back to Canada as a result of her illegal status and her crime against a child?
