It is a tremendous crisis.”

New Nickname for Democrats: Border Deniers
Science as a process requires that you test assumed truths at every opportunity. “Climate Science” is a process that requires that you hide any truth that contradicts your theories.

Media Face-palm – Blames Trump for Pics of Kids In Cages…from Obama Era
The media went nutty (as I expect did the Never-Trumpers) over photos of children in cages attributed to Mr. Trump’s border enforcement but the images were taken…during the Obama administration.
The photos appeared in the Arizona Republic in 2014 during former President Barack Obama’s second term to illustrate the over 1,000 children detained by authorities trying to cross the border.

He has since deleted the tweet.
White House Trolls Media With Press Release That Repeatedly Refers to MS-13 Gang Members as ‘Animals’

That’s what you get from this White House, which I admit is a pleasant change from the previous Republican President who let the left and the media steamroll him without a word. But it wasn’t just the Media who got trolled.
