Oh please, stop with this false equivalence. The Obama administration housed minors in these same facilities for a very short period of time. The Trump administration has taken these temporary facilities and turned them into Jail cells for mostly innocent people.


I was never for abolishing ICE but after seeing the Border Patrol's Facebook page, I say abolish ICE and create a border patrol composed only of bilingual Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, and California residents.

Ahh, the classic example of when Obama did it, it was okay, but if Trump does it, orange man bad.

AOC has time to go to the border and scream and berate the men and women that are trying to hold things together down there. Pity the poor illegals that broke the law and must suffer the consequences. When has she ever gone to a homeless camp or a veteran's home? Answer -- never.

She's a bad politician, a bad bartender, and probably a lousy lay.

Those Concentration camps were for Citizens who were rounded up because of their Religion and sent to the work/death camps. They were not camps set up for an invading force in a Country.

Here is the problem, there are border agents who have posted vile and disgusting things about the immigrants and politicians like AOC on Facebook groups. I'm all for free speech but this is impacting their jobs and our expectations. Now this isn't vetting itself, the ones being found are currently on the job today. And in a social media friendly world re-vetting every five years is too long for their titles and considering how easy it is to scrub something on the internet (minus the screenshots). IMHO they should be fired and lose any form of pension they had, no matter how vested in and how at the top of the chain they are.
Looks like Border Patrol agents were blowing off some steam on a private website. - they have a lot to be angry about. Leftists in Congress refuse to pass bills for funding them. The Leftist Media constantly vilifies them and calling for doxing them and their families. They are dealing with over 100,000 a month in facilities designed for a few 1,000 and the invaders are ill and hostile. They are totally overwhelmed.

Instead of venting on a Private Facebook ...l perhaps you would prefer the vent in person while changing dirty diapers. Good idea, let’s just fire them all and maybe the Leftist Radicals can go down to the Border and change those dirty diapers.

Better plan is for Americans to do what Panama, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Columbia & Mexico do ... which is to set up corridors to move the invaders quickly through their Countries to the choice Country of the invaders ... the Sanctuary Cities and Land of the Free Stuff. One way busses to The East and Sest Coasts of the Leftist Radicals.

That should make everyone happy.

I'd say write up and suspension will be suffice.
Firing them won’t satisfy these Leftist CongressCritters ... they want them prosecuted.

Rep. Frederica Wilson demands prosecution for those who mock Congress online - Washington Examiner

Democratic Florida Rep. Frederica Wilson asserted that people who mock members of Congress online should face prosecution.

"Those people who are online making fun of members of Congress are a disgrace, and there is no need for anyone to think that is unacceptable [sic]," Wilson said during comments made Tuesday outside of the Homestead Temporary Shelter for Unaccompanied Children in Homestead, Florida.

"We're gonna shut them down and work with whoever it is to shut them down, and they should be prosecuted," she continued. "You cannot intimidate members of Congress, frighten members of Congress. It is against the law, and it's a shame in this United States of America."


Think about that for a minute... “mocking CongressCritters” is illegal to her and people who do that should be prosecuted. Forget that Nasty Constitution thingy, they don’t believe in it.

Free Speech for ME, but not for THEE ... it’s the Leftist way & plan for the future ... along with all the FREE stuff and Open Borders in our Socialist new Country.

During the Obama administration was there caravan after caravan crashing our border in a short period of which during the month of May alone there were 144,000 of them? We already have several Border Patrol agents that are bi-lingual. What does that have to do with the huge number of migrants coming here every month?

Detention toilets, have one water supply into each unit. The Stainless Steel toilets, have a drinking water fountain/sink, on top of the water tank, to save space and installation time.
So, technically she is correct. But, because the public is ignorant and stupid of the facts, it comes off as if the inmates are sticking their heads in the toilet bowl to drink. That is FALSE.

CBP can't even find enough qualified candidates to fill up vacancy with nationwide recruiting. What makes you think they can find enough bodies with only 4 states (TX, AZ, NM, and CA)?

Also, 50% of CBP is minority. Out of 50%, 35% is of Hispanic origin.
