Rep. Luis Gutiérrez declared that the Trump administration’s immigration policies would have killed Jesus Christ during a scathing statement Thursday attacking Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen.
The Illinois Democrat used the entirety of his time at the House Judiciary Committee hearing to trash Ms. Nielsen as a “remorseless” liar for her repeated claims that the department does not have a family separation policy.
“It is repugnant to me and astonishing to me that during Christmas, a time in which we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ — a Jesus Christ who had to flee for his life with Mary and Joseph,” Mr. Gutiérrez said. “Thank God there wasn’t a wall that stopped him from seeking refuge in Egypt.
“Thank God that wall wasn’t there and thank God there wasn’t an administration like this or he would have, too, perished on the 28th, on the Day of Innocents when [King] Herod ordered the murder of every child under 2 years of age,” he continued. “Shame on everybody that separates children and allows them to stay at the other side of the border fearing death, fearing hunger, fearing sickness. Shame on us for wearing our badge of Christianity during Christmas and allow the secretary to come here and lie.”

Oy vey. Garbage like this makes me want to puke.
Of course, Palestina and Egypt were both provinces of Rome.
Still, after Trump builds a wall between Tennessee and Kentucky the guy will have a parallel to make a point about something with.
Showing her ignorance. Mary and Joseph were told to go home for the census. They were NOT trying to break into another country to get free stuff.
Luis:
Sell everything you own and give the money to the poor.
OMG watching this ASSHAT today was beyond NAUSEATING I mean he is disgusting THANK GOD he is out of office!!!
The Bible doesn’t say Jesus and his family entered Egypt illegally.
Actually, Egyptian border security was very strong. The Egyptians had a deep border canal filled with crocodiles running all along their eastern border not far from where the Suez canal is now. People entering Egypt from the east had to take a road passing a fortified gateway point at the north end of the border canal.
Jesus and his family likely entered via this road entering legally through the Egyptian checkpoint.
Luis, sit down.
Everybody’s looking at you.
So, the illegal aliens are Jesus?
All of them?
*sigh* Biblically illiterate idiots.
KFAB radio in Omaha was making fun of this a$$hole all morning today!
Loved it!
Biblical precedent: somee lady would have put him in a basket and either lowered him down wall or sent him off in river.
Bullsheit! What kind of drugs cause such mental abberations against PDJT, anyway? (And besides, Christian theology says Jesus’s own purpose was to be crucified by the Roman occupation dictatorship- empire... as a sort of “substitutionary sacrifice” for the rest of mankind — etc etc —we don’t have to go into all that in this thread and you certainly may Believe as much or little of it as pleases you ——-but logically anyone helping the then- Roman “authorities” crucify Jesus helped Jesus achieve his goal, the stated purpose of his mission . And Should therefore be celebrated or at least thanked ,not condemned as Mr Gutierrez would wish us to believe ). And I’ve got a full fire hose at the ready so no flames need respond. It’s just the irrationality of gutierrez’s Attempted smear against PDJT that is so striking, is all. These leftist ideologies will use anything and even try using Jesus against PDJT. It’s anazing just how far they go
And Luis Gutiérrez would have aborted all the children in Bethlehem before the Wise men arrived to spare them from being slaughtered by Herod because Democrats are so extra special compassionate!
(We know how this works.)
Did I miss something? Is it okay to cite the Bible in support of policy again?
Blame it on the Star of Bethlehem and the three wise men.
Says the little Gang Banging Latin King who belongs to the Abortion Party.
It’s disgusting how these atheist pigs like Schmoozer, Piglosi and Gutierrez pretend to be Jesus freaks all of a sudden. Lying hypocrites. May they burn in hell for their lies.
Maybe a looooong moat full of alligators along our own border is what we need :-D
