Dem Senator: Trump ‘Deliberately’ Hurting Migrant Kids ‘As Part of Political Strategy’

There are some things you just don’t say.

Most of those things are lies.

Democrat Senator Jeff Merkley (ever heard of him? He represents Oregon, apparently) doesn’t understand.

According to Jeff, the Trump administration is “deliberately” hurting migrant children because it’s “part of political strategy.”

How dare he.

While appearing on MSNBC’s “AM Joy,” Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Oregon, claimed that “trauma is being inflicted” on migrant children in shelters “as part of a political strategy, to hurt children deliberately as part of a political strategy” by the Trump administration.

Merkley: “And we’re told that number is now 15,000 children. And think of that, 15,000 children in child prisons, Trump administration child prisons across America. And they are planning to add a couple more.

And so, this is — this system of locking children up behind the barbed wire…don’t call them anything other than child prisons or internment camps. That’s what’s going on here. And we’re told that there are children who have been here three, four, five, even six months long. And the trauma is being inflicted as part of a political strategy, to hurt children deliberately as part of a political strategy.

A seven-year-old girl died at the southern border. She and her family were trying to sneak into the states.

The mainstream media has lambasted President Trump and his administration for her death.

Even Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer (NY) joined in, blaming border patrol agents for the death before the facts came out.

The MSM is not mentioning, though, that the girl hadn’t eaten or drank for days.

What’s more is the girl’s father says border patrol could NOT have done a better job.

Talk about a narrative buster.

One-third of migrants in the caravan are facing serious health issues.

From Daily Wire:

Thousands of migrants marched from Central America to the U.S. border over the last six weeks, but many of them are suffering from respiratory infections, tuberculosis, chickenpox and other serious health issues — including HIV.

Of the 6,000 migrants gathered in Tijuana just south of the U.S. border near San Diego, more than a third of them (2,267) are being treated for health-related issues, a spokesman for Tijuana’s Health Department told Fox News.

Chief Border Patrol Agent Rodney Scott appeared on CNN.

He dropped some truth bombs about the illegal migrant caravan that is attempting to make its way into America.

For example, did the left know that grown men were pushing women and children to the front and then throwing rocks at patrol agents?

How about that the migrants tore down a section of the border wall?

“What we saw over and over yesterday is that the group, the caravan as we call them, would push women and children to the front and then begin basically rocking our agents.”

Scott added, “That is correct. 42 crossed the border and were arrested. There were numerous people that actually made it across the border. We are in the process of building a new border wall. There were sections that were dilapidated sections made out of scrap metal that the military had gave us. The group breached a section of this. The group breached a couple sections of this. They actually tore down one section. They rushed across and that’s another time that they actually started assaulting our agents.”

Vice President Mike Pence made it clear that these caravans were paid for by leftist groups.

From Fox News:

Vice President Mike Pence descended on the southwest as part of a midterm rallying blitz, bringing with him a warning that the migrant caravan is being funded by outside, leftist groups, citing intel said to be provided by foreign partners and a phone call with a Central American leader.

Pence: “What the president of Honduras told me is that the caravan was organized by leftist organizations, political activists within Honduras, and he said it was being funded by outside groups, and even from Venezuela. So the American people, I think, see through this – they understand this is not a spontaneous caravan of vulnerable people.

It is now being reported that of the 6,000 migrants in Tijuana at least 500 have been “identified” as “criminals.”

Fox Business host Lou Dobbs breaks it down…

WATCH:

Reporting on the caravan, Univision’s Jorge Ramos said the migrants were harmless.

During an interview with Fox News’ Martha MacCallum, hack reporter and Univision propagandist, Jorge Ramos attempted to convince her viewers that the “vast majority” of illegal aliens who are part of the illegal mob heading to the U.S. border were not “criminals” or “terrorists”. Ramos told MacCallum, “They’re not even immigants, they’re refugees”. Ramos continued, admonishing MacCallum and her viewers, demanding that we “must treat them with respect”.

There’s no doubt that Jorge is right. Most people in the caravan are harmless.

But all it takes is one to be not harmless and people end up losing their lives.

Check out a caravan marcher flashing “gang signs” behind Ramos:
