By now you’ve probably seen the liberal media hysteria over a 7-year-old migrant girl who died in US custody. The media as well as the democrats would like you to believe that this girl died as a result of the US Border Patrol and by extension President Trump’s immigration policies. The truth of the matter is the girl was starved to death by her shitty parents and the human traffickers who smuggled her to the border. US officials did everything they could to save this little girl’s life but the left is exploiting her death to falsely accuse the President of being a literal monster who kills children.
This Washington Post article is what got the liberals going:
According to CBP records, the girl and her father were taken into custody about 10 p.m. Dec. 6 south of Lordsburg, N.M., as part of a group of 163 people who approached U.S. agents to turn themselves in.
More than eight hours later, the child began having seizures at 6:25 a.m., CBP records show. Emergency responders, who arrived soon after, measured her body temperature at 105.7 degrees, and according to a statement from CBP, she “reportedly had not eaten or consumed water for several days.”
After a helicopter flight to Providence Children’s Hospital in El Paso, the child went into cardiac arrest and “was revived,” according to the agency. “However, the child did not recover and died at the hospital less than 24 hours after being transported,” CBP said.
This girl wasn’t given food or water for days by her dad and the human traffickers they were traveling with. She was gravely ill before she ever got in to US custody and our country did everything to save her life. Her asshole dad, the coyotes, and unprotected borders that act as a magnet are all to blame. Let’s see what the democrats think:
Tonight, I arrived in TX to inspect government facilities where families with children are being imprisoned. When I landed, I learned that a 7 year-old has died.
Will be on @CNN @NewDay at 4:15amPT/7:15amET to talk about these horrific policies & what we must do to push back.

We cannot give more money to agencies that allow children to die in their custody. A 7 year old child died of dehydration in @CBP custody. We demand an investigation immediately. https://t.co/gQre3cmdk2

I am heartbroken by this news, and my prayers are with the girl’s family. America is better than this, and we must ensure this can never happen again. https://t.co/ZWNM18Xr5d

I am deeply saddened by this girl’s death. There must be a complete investigation and the results shared with Congress and the public. https://t.co/3ja8CZ6rlG

I grew up in a Matthew 25 family. My parents taught us that if someone is hungry, you feed them. If a stranger needs shelter, you welcome them into your home. This is devastating. She deserved better. We must fight to ensure this never happens again. https://t.co/OgieLWhwK9

Lying sack of shit Senator Dick Durbin thinks DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen should resign over this.
Shameless. Secretary Nielsen should resign, now. https://t.co/ViyhhbA48Z

And finally, it wouldn’t be some faux liberal outrage without Hillary Clinton dropping a turd in the bucket.
There are no words to capture the horror of a seven-year-old girl dying of dehydration in U.S. custody. What’s happening at our borders is a humanitarian crisis. https://t.co/8KZeynGjIv

Shocking. Not one of these democrats blames the father, the smugglers, or the open border policies they support. If the US had reasonable border security and immigration enforcement, scumbags from Mexico and Central America wouldn’t even try to come here illegally. The democrats are the reason why we have a porous border. The democrats are the reason why people have hope they can sneak into this country and mooch off the system. If they democrats are looking for someone to blame for this, they should take a look in the mirror.
Just watch, this bullshit liberal narrative will go on for weeks. The liberal media will repeat it so often that it will be considered fact. Democrats will openly accuse President Trump of starving immigrant children to death and a sizable portion of the public will believe it.
The only positive thing here is that democrats have moved on from exploiting victims of mass shootings to push their agenda to exploiting the deaths of immigrants to push their agenda. Actually, now that I think about it, that’s probably a lateral move.
