Just watched some video clips of Pence's visit to the border camp; Chris Hayes (MSNBC) aired shots that showed dozens of men caged in McAllen, Texas. The imprisoned men gestured to indicate some had been held there 40 days; others complained about lack of basic hygiene, pantomiming brushing their teeth. They were clearly expressing what they were experiencing.

Mike Pence is a perfect example why the Evangelical Christians are the biggest phonies and liars on God's Green Earth.

How about having Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence spend a comfy, cozy weekend in one of those pens? As I taxpayer, I'm even willing to foot their bill !

The Democrats and the RINOS are squarely to blame for the overwhelming conditions at the border detention camps.

They should provide the basic human needs since when someone is detained or imprisoned, they you become responsible for the health and well being. Beds, food, washing, TV. Healthcare. 

Good grief. If we had a wall and common sense policies concerning illegal immigration we wouldn't become responsible for their health and well being, beds, food, washing, TV and healthcare.

Heh, I think I see the new Trumpet approach here. As their numbers get smaller and smaller, they re-frame themselves as the persecuted, instead of realizing it's because less and less people are as moronic as they are.

Can't add anything to that. Indisputable and irrefutable.

All the more reasons for the Democrats to all this craziness to continue. As long as they do it, the President should just make sure everyone has a meal, blanket and access to the toilet.

Good grief! The people in the detention centers are there because they broke the law. They aren't innocent bystanders , swept up by a government dragnet. They CHOSE to break American law by trying to enter the country illegally. They are responsible for their own fate as far as I see it. If they don't like the conditions, they are free to go home.

What a terrible country the US has become. People trying to make excuses for modern day concentration camps.

This twitter comment sums up the state of America right now

I didn't realize DonaldTrump was so self-aware. He says that Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley & Rashida Tlaib - born in the US - are from a country with a government that is "a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world."

Of course, the corruption survives only when people turn a blind eye and make excuses for it.

Shame on them.

Changing the immigration laws to address unexpected immigrants is the only solution.

I understand. To people that hate it, yes, but to the people that love it, it’s the greatest.

People trying to make excuses for modern day concentration camps.

We could say the same exact thing about liberals and Democrats that want open borders or think ICE and the CBP should break the law and just let illegals in blindly.

I think that is exactly what these women were doing, turning a blind eye.

I disagree, AOC as well as Omar have repeatedly denigrated Israel, the Jewish people, makes outrageous comments and try to make the justification that we should have open borders or we should allow illegals in and just overlook our sovereign laws, these women with less than 4 votes, a poor record in Congress and instead of trying to work with the President or with the GOP in trying to fix many of these problems, but especially the border which they caused, they decide to attack the agencies that are trying to restore order, they want to abolish ICE, if that happens, how and who will keep order along the border or deport illegals that have been ordered dangerous or have very serious criminal convictions which he should.

Shame on them.

Yes, shame on them.

Herding people into cages at dention centers which are little better than concentration camps reflects badly on the country.

Doesn't Matter. What matters is upholding the law and if you don’t want to get locked up or through that mess, don’t come into this country illegally.
