It’s for the children.
Watch the CNN interview that aired Thursday with Rep.-elect Xochitl Torres Small, D-N.M, and you come away with two things: A migraine and the inescapable conclusion that Democrats want to turn border patrol agents into caretakers and babysitters for illegal immigrants.
The national news media show no interest in hundreds of Americans killed by illegal immigrants but shift into high gear when two sick Guatemalan children die after being dragged by their fathers 2,000 miles to the U.S. border.
Fortunately, however, the wall-to-wall coverage of the border issue means we’re eventually exposed to Democrats’ true feelings on the issue.
Torres Small, when intelligible, said on CNN that the immediate priority on “border security” (Democrat code for: “do nothing to deter illegal immigration”) should be fixing up detention facilities and dumping more taxpayer resources into caring for illegal border crossers.
“All of our safety depends upon on having an agency that’s quickly able to adapt to changing circumstances and that’s exactly what we have here,” she said. “So we have to prioritize, of course, medical equipment, as well as personnel, appropriate facilities for these families that are being detained, because that’s important to save children’ lives, to make sure that detainees are safe and healthy.”
She also said she’s “willing to work with anyone to make sure that we have real border security and that we are relying on this border that keeps all of our communities vibrant.” ( What?!)
