Forgive the rant, but I'm currently on travels in south Florida, heart of the illegal immigration debate. Manufactured hysteria over immigration isn't limited to south Florida. Democrats found tape of a little girl screaming for her parents as they were taken away after entering the country illegally. It's another phony bid to try and smear President Trump for enforcing immigration law and like most of the Dems "sky is falling" hysteria it will soon backfire as more Americans ask why these people are being encouraged to enter in the first place.
More to the point, consider this from Newsweek:
NEWSWEEK:In fiscal year 2013, under the Barack Obama administration, the HHS Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) had as many as 25,000 unaccompanied children in its care across 80 shelters, according to a July 2014 article in Mother Jones.At this point in one of these manufactured media firestorms (they follow a predictable pattern) it will be hard to get the facts over the noise of talking heads screaming about children but consider this from Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen:
NIELSEN: The vast majority, vast, vast majority of children who are in the care of HHS now — 10,000 of the 12,000 — were sent here alone by their parents. That’s when they were separated. Ten thousand of those currently in custody were sent by their parents with strangers to undertake a completely dangerous and deadly travel alone. We now care for them. We have high standards. We give them meals. We give them education. We give them medical care. There is videos. There’s TVs.If Democrats really cared about children they would put a stop to the illegal immigration that is separating families. But Democrats oppose Trump plans to build the border wall and strengthen border security. Democrats seek to profit from a wave of illegals that will then be exploited for political purposes now and registered to vote at the earliest opportunity.
And for all the trauma that the children are suffering what about the trauma of families torn apart by the violence of MS-13 gang members who are also flooding across the border? House Democrat Leader Nancy Pelosi insists these murderous monsters possess a "spark of divinity, the dignity and worth "
Not to mention how the children of illegals are overwhelming public schools and social welfare and health programs. That puts American children at risk. Once again, Democrats care illegals than they do American children!
