And then remember this from Barr today:

This is Lincoln type attitude/language when he ignored courts ruling on behalf of the rebelling states...

The President is 10000000000000% correct on this issue.

 

We don't want ILLEGAL immigrants in OUR country. Stay the fvck away if you like the conditions here.

 

Go thru the proper channels to became a citizen here and we won't have any problems.

 

What they are going thru in their county is not our problem. How they can assimilate here is our problem, starting with the proper process.

 

But, of course, the demented Dems don't see it this way as they want open borders for all to come in and wreck this country.

This is why MSM gets called fake news

 

 

Reuters tweeted out a photo with a headline that has captured some attention as it pertains for the border debate:

 

 

 

 For people who only went by assumptions based on Reuters’ tweet and didn’t actually read the story, there was some context missing:

 

It's a Mexican soldier and he stopped them in Mexico

 

Well, there’s that! Also, the story isn’t quite what the tweet implies:

 

Eight paragraphs in.

Reuters’ contribution to the Democrat narrative has been noted, however:

On top of the obvious insinuations (and the fact that she and the child did cross the border only to be immediately picked up by CBP), this was very clearly a staged photo.

The premise of the Reuter’s article that goes with the photo and Tweet is that the Mexican troops are stopping border crossings. 

 

And by the way, she then just ran around him. 

 

Or ... didn’t you read the article?

Beginner is the correct name for you 

 

in in my post I included paragraph 8, which states that the soldier did not detain her but warned her 

 

also, the reason for my derision is in the Reuter’s tweet 

 

Reuters photo captures Guatemalan mother begging soldier to let her enter U.S

 

note the deliberate spin about the US and not Mexico 

 

 

or did you not read it !

It's like talking with a third grader.

 

 

I am discussing the MEDIA report not the Mexican military

 

 

I will post the original Reuters news service tweet again

 

 

Into the article, actual points of the picture are revealed, but in the tweet heading it specifically says "begging soldier to let her enter the US"

 

thus spinning the story as occurring on the US border

 

thus confirming what libs like Gator, buftex, and (apparently) yourself think about the Trump administration's border policy.

 

And to further demonstrate how this type of spin works to you, I will add this

 

This type of false news then is repeated, becoming part of the anti american narrative.

 

And sure enough.......................

 

 

WATCHING THE FAKE NEWS BEING MADE IN REAL TIME: 

CBS News picks up Reuters’ spin on ‘mom pleading with border guard to let her enter the US’ photo.

 

“Just weeks after DNC Media lost its collective mind over an economic migrant who got himself and his child killed while crossing a river, it tries to manufacture an outrage storm over a (Mexican) trooper warning a migrant with a child not to attempt a dangerous border crossing.”

 

 

 

MORE:

 Reuters, CBS Run With Misleading Headline About Migrant Mother, Mexican Border Guard.

Both CBS and Reuters ran a photo of a Guatemalan migrant mother and a Mexican border guard, including a headline that didn’t quite tell the whole story.

 

Reuters published the photo with the headline, “Reuters photo captures Guatemalan mother begging soldier to let her enter US.

 

CBS ran a very similar headline with the Reuters photo, which was taken by photographer Jose Luis Gonzalez last Monday. “Dramatic photo captures migrant mom pleading with border guard as she tries to enter US with son,” the headline read.

 

* * * * * * * *

Nine paragraphs into the story, however, Reuters shed further light on the context of the situation by including comments from the National Guard and Jesus Ramirez, spokesman for Mexican President Manuel Lopez Obrador.

* * * * * * * *

Following the confrontation, Perez and her son were photographed moving toward the border in order to cross illegally, unhindered by the guard.

And Reuters are still issuing misleadingly labeled photos today. While this shot, unlike the carefully cropped photo mentioned above, includes the Mexican border guardsman’s uniform ID (at least you can now see there’s no US flag on his sleeve), there’s no information in the caption that describes the country he works for:

reuters_mexican_border_guard_7-27-19-1.j

 

 

 

Please.................. next time, identify what the actual subject of the post is, before you answer with a mis-stated reply.

Leave that BS to gator

KAROL MARKOWICZ: Democrats refuse to help fix border crisis because bashing Trump is more fun.

There isn’t a good solution, and the continual ratcheting up of the rhetoric by the left only ends up actively harming these kids. Democrats are telegraphing the message that as soon as they win the White House, people who cross the border illegally can stay.

 

Sen. Bernie Sanders referred to “racist child prisons,” because the Trump administration is housing children at an army base that served as a World War II internment camp for Japanese-Americans. He was silent when the Obama administration did the same thing. Will a President Sanders detain any migrants?

 

Sen. Liz Warren says, “We should not be criminalizing mamas and babies trying to flee violence at home or trying to build a better future.” Sounds like her administration would let everyone in, too.

 

But we simply can’t admit every mama and baby (and presumably a daddy or two). Such unrealistic rhetoric will only exacerbate the misery of the migrants and serve as a boon to the smugglers who profit off their misery.

 

 

If it unseats just one Republican president, isn’t it worth it?

He will pardon those that break break the law for him? Conservatives values on display. Really, Conservatives have no values worth mentioning. 

 

 

Quote

 

President Trump is so eager to complete hundreds of miles of border fence ahead of the 2020 presidential election that he has directed aides to fast-track billions of dollars’ worth of construction contracts, aggressively seize private land and disregard environmental rules, according to current and former officials involved with the project.

He also has told worried subordinates that he will pardon them of any potential wrongdoing should they have to break laws to get the barriers built quickly, those officials said.

Trump has repeatedly promised to complete 500 miles of fencing by the time voters go to the polls in November 2020, stirring chants of “Finish the Wall!” at his political rallies as he pushes for tighter border controls. But the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has completed just about 60 miles of “replacement” barrier during the first 2½ years of Trump’s presidency, all of it in areas that previously had border infrastructure.
