Watch–DHS Sec Nielsen: ‘Vast, Vast Majority’ of Child Border Crossers ‘Were Sent Here Alone by Their Parents’
Breitbart, Jun 18, 2018, John Binder

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen corrected the establishment media’s false narrative that all children inundating the United States-Mexico border are arriving with their parents.

During a White House news conference on Monday evening, Nielsen debunked the media’s false claims that conflate all child border crossers as being taken from their border crossing parents.
 
Nielsen said that the “vast, vast majority” of the 12,000 child border crossers in federal custody were actually sent to the southern border alone with human smugglers.

REPORTER: …How is this not specifically child abuse for these innocent children who are indeed being separated from their parents? [Emphasis added]

NIELSEN: So I want to be clear on a couple of other things. The vast majority, vast vast majority of children who are in the care of HHS right now — 10,000 of the 12,000 — were sent here alone by their parents. That’s when they were separated. So somehow we’ve conflated everything. But there’s two separate issues. 10,000 of those currently in custody were sent by their parents with strangers 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’s videos, there’s TVs, I visited the detention centers myself. That would be my answer to that question. [Emphasis added]

This was very impressive.  Who could ask for more than abiding by the law?  She effectively delivered the truth and the press continued to try and push the agenda.  Truth being that 10,000 of the 12,000 children were sent on a dangerous journey putting their lives at risk.  I want to thank the DHS Secretary for her commitment to this country and its laws.

Thank you.

This was one of the first times I heard her speak and take questions ... I think she was impressive, too @Chosen Daughter

Wouldn't the democrats just kill to have a person in their party who was that impressive and knowledgeable ... I bet they would.  Thanks for posting this.

Hey, I like agreeing with you on this one.  I am a person that believes in the laws of this country.  I believe we have laws for the good of our citizens.  In this case it is even for the good of these children.  The left is pushing a campaign of emotions.  We cannot govern on emotions.  Of course a child cries.  That is what children do.  I bet they did some crying also when they were with strangers in the desert.  As the Secretary said.  They are being cared for.  They have medical care.  Food, water, clean clothes and entertainment.  Thankfully they fell into the hands of our professionals who treat them with professionalism and respect rather than drug cartel or child traffickers.  We should be thanking all the law enforcement that does this dangerous job.

True.

Well....Well...Well!


The truth behind this photo of an ‘immigrant child’ crying inside a cage
http://wgntv.com/2018/06/18/the-truth-behind-this-photo-of-an-immigrant-child-crying-inside-a-cage/


A photo of a little boy crying in a cage is being shared on social media as seemingly another heart-rending byproduct of the White House’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy, which separates undocumented parents and kids at the border.

There’s only one problem: The picture is being completely taken out of context — and does not show what it is purported to show.


In other words...."THEY LIED THEIR F'ING ASSES OFF!"

Where was the news about this?  I don't remember it.  Surely Laura would have had something to say about this.

The Truth is slowly coming out and Trump is going to be 100% Vindicated.

About this DHS Sec being hot for a middle aged woman? You bet.

I know its difficult Frank but try to focus on the issue.

I am well past focusing on immigration. If anyone thinks the spineless GOP congress is going to take charge of this issue once and for all and deal with it is crazy. In the meantime I am going to focus on the pretty lady saying fun words.

BTTT

Probably a good idea, since the driving force behind the idea is a sallow faced 32 year old who looks 60 and comes off as detestable when he speaks.
