I don’t wish to beat around the bush on this. There are flat out lies spreading around
mostly as a result of a corrupt media.
So let’s get a few things straight, first, about the current crisis of
family separations at the border.
First, although some media outlets are falsely
reporting that there some 12,000 children who have been separated from their
parents into these facilities where they are being held, this is not true. Of those 12K, ten thousand of them are
unaccompanied minors. There are
approximately 2,000 who are being held who came here with someone that, at
present, is assumed to be their parent.
Second, although some media outlets are falsely
reporting that these children came across the border seeking asylum, the only
thing we know for sure is they crossed illegally. Which means they did not cross at one of the
25 authorized ports of entry at the southern border. This, alone, is completely illegal, no matter
what they came across the border seeking.
Even an American citizen crossing the border at any place other than the
25 authorized ports of entry is committing a crime and subject to arrest.
Third, these two thousand children were separated from
their supposed parents because those parents were arrested. It is fairly common practice in every country
in the world that when you arrest someone, you don’t allow their children to
stay with them.
Fourth, these children are being detained because they
crossed the border illegally…as party to their supposed parents’ illegal
act. According to our own laws, they are
held for a certain period whereby it is determined what country they came
from. By our laws, if they came from Mexico,
we will deport them back to Mexico. If
they came from any non-contiguous country, like Honduras, we cannot send them
back. We are required to find them a
place to stay here in the US. Stupid law…though
I’d have to say in the case of the 10K unaccompanied minors, if its really true
that their parents sent them on this journey unaccompanied, I sure wouldn’t
want to see them sent back to those parents.
Fifth, by pure logic, there are only five options to
resolve this situation: a) separate these kids from their parents while their
parents are being processed for their crime; b) keep them with their parents
either in the same facility as all the other kids being held or in the holding
facility for all the illegal alien adults; c) create a third holding facility
just for these kids and their parents while the parents’ arrests are being
processed (what Trump just ordered by EO); d) don’t stop any one crossing the
border at all…leave the border completely open and let anyone cross (this is what
the open border radical liberals like Pelosi and Schumer want); or e) to make
it honestly fair, make it illegal for any law enforcement agency to arrest
anyone, citizen or not, if it would result in that person’s children being
potentially traumatized by being separated from their parents.
At first, the radical left were up in arms over these
separations because they said its just not right to separate children from their
parents…it’s akin to child abuse. No
matter how much rational people tried to counter the absurd argument that
children just shouldn’t be separated from their parents when the parents commit
a crime, the radical left just weren’t going to let this one go.
As soon as Trump signed his EO creating a means by
which these arrested parents and their children could remain together through
this process, the radical left showed their hand. It was not about the children. It never was.
Otherwise this would be done with now.
Now, finally showing their real intentions, Pelosi, Schumer and others
from the deep left have made it clear their objective is get the Trump
administration to stop arresting any person crossing into this country in an
illegal manner. They want complete and
open borders.
Here’s the funny part about that…well, two funny
parts. First, these very Democrats were
deeply outspoken about illegal immigration not so many years ago.
1.
Senator Dianne
Feinstein (D-CA) in 1993: "The day when America could be the welfare
system for Mexico is gone. We simply can't afford it.
2.
"Senator Harry
Reid (D-NV) in 1993: "Can it be any wonder that the American people think
our immigration policies are a joke when we select 40,000 new immigrants a year
by lottery?"
3.
President Bill Clinton
in 1995: "But we are also a nation of laws. It is wrong and ultimately
self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our
immigration laws we have seen in recent years, and we must do more to stop
it."
4.
Senator Patrick Leahy
(D-VT) in 2006: "These provisions are not amnesty. Undocumented immigrants
already in the country would not get to cut to the front of the line, but, in
accordance with the Committee's bipartisan plan, will need to pay fines, pay
back taxes, work hard, and wait in line for green cards."
5.
Senator Bernie Sanders
(I-VT) in 2007: "I happen to think that the Congress should be spending a
lot more time discussing this issue and making it easier for us to create
decent paying jobs for American workers instead of allowing corporate interest
to drive wages down by importing more and more people into this country to do
the work that Americans should be doing."

The
second funny part is that these liberals somehow want Trump to order this open
border via execute fiat. They know full
well that the very laws that Congress itself passed, along with the constitutional
separation of powers, lays out the laws upon which any US President must
act. To do so outside the scope of those
laws is tantamount to writing his own laws and violates the very principle of
the separation of powers. Obama, himself
knew this, and said so on many occasions.
“[T]here are those in the immigrants’ rights community who have
argued passionately that we should simply provide those who are [here]
illegally with legal status, or at least ignore the laws on the books and put
an end to deportation until we have better laws. ... I believe
such an indiscriminate approach would be both unwise and unfair. It
would suggest to those thinking about coming here illegally that there will be
no repercussions for such a decision. And this could lead to a
surge in more illegal immigration. And it would also ignore the
millions of people around the world who are waiting in line to come here
legally. Ultimately, our nation, like all nations, has the right and obligation
to control its borders and set laws for residency and citizenship. And no
matter how decent they are, no matter their reasons, the 11
million who broke these laws should be held accountable.” (7/1/10)
“I am president, I am
not king. I can't do these things just by myself. We have a system of
government that requires the Congress to work with the Executive Branch to make
it happen. I'm committed to making it happen, but I've got to have some partners to do it. …
The main thing we have to do to stop deportations is to change the laws. …
[T]he most important thing that we can do is to change the law because the way
the system works – again, I just want to repeat, I'm president, I'm not king. If Congress
has laws on the books that says that people who are here who are not documented
have to be deported, then I can exercise some flexibility in terms of where we
deploy our resources, to focus on people who are really causing problems as a
opposed to families who are just trying to work and support themselves. But there's a limit to the
discretion that I can show because I am obliged to execute the law. That's what the
Executive Branch means. I can't just make the laws up by myself. So the most important thing that we can do is focus on
changing the underlying laws.” (10/25/10)

where is lists the many times Obama said similar things.
Yet, after all this, because the MSM blasted the
airwaves with image after image after image (some images which were take in 2014,
before Trump even ran for President) of children being kept behind fences and
sleeping in large groups the radical left decided this was a chance to pounce on
Trump yet again in hopes of swaying public opinion against him.
But once again it didn’t work. It made them look stupid and foolish and
desperate…in some cases (Peter Fonda and others) nasty and mean…and in one
instance (Occupy Wall St.) purely evil where they released the names and
addresses of hundreds of ICE agents and called for their death.
Many on the left were all too happy to have the distraction of this happening this past week or so. They desperately needed the public’s attention away from Trump’s accomplishments with the economy and with North Korea, and to stifle the right wing side of the media from their coverage of the IG report and he subsequent testimony before Senate and House committees.

The bottom line to all this is that the left is
clearly painting the picture of what they are running on this November and
where they want to take this country.
They are desperate for you all not to know this, but they will clear a
path towards impeachment of Trump should they win back the House. They’ve made it very clear that their
solution to a failing Obamacare is not to repeal it but to bolster it right
into an universal healthcare system, a la England. Pelosi has made it abundantly clear that
should they take back the House that they will repeal the tax cuts of last December. And there is little doubt in my mind that they
will pursue major steps towards either abolishing the second amendment or weakening
it severely
And now, their latest comments about the border make
it finally unquestionably clear that they plan on pushing for complete open
borders. This is why they refuse to vote
to end chain migration, or build a wall or fix our immigration system. Their primary financier, George Soros, is the
quintessential advocate for global open borders on the way to a global ruling
class.
This coming November is as important an election as
the one in 2016 was. Imagine where we’d be
right now if HRC had won in November 2016.
Now, with these five clear planks to their platform revealed, imagine
where we will be if they do take over the House and Senate in November
2018. We couldn’t let HRC win in 2016,
and we cannot afford to let the Dems win this fall. We must get out the vote. We must not fall back asleep just because Trump
is succeeding.
There’s so much more left to do. We have finish what has been started in North
Korea, with trade renegotiations and in isolating Iran and defeating ISIS to
the end.
We must continue to drain the swamp. So many have been exposed in various agencies
and in Congress. Judges need to continue
to be appointed. We need to begin seeing
indictments and prosecutions and convictions.
We need to turn the light on the cockroaches that remain.
And we need to prepare to win again in 2020 so we can
solidify this revolution. Please, if you
agree with this and would like to see this happen, then step up. We should extraordinarily proud of what our
President has accomplished even in the face of powerful opposition in
Washington.
