Schumer: Reports of National Guard deportation plan 'despicable'
The Hill ^ | 2/17/17 | Jordain Carney

Posted on 02/17/2017 10:00:42 AM PST by markomalley

Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) blasted a report that the Trump administration is considering using the National Guard to round up undocumented immigrants for deportation, a claim that the White House has denied.

"That's despicable," Schumer told reporters during a press conference on Scott Pruitt's nomination to lead the Environmental Protection Agency. "That would be one of the most un-American things that would happen in the last century."

He added: "I just hope it's not true."

The Trump administration issued a strongly worded denial on Friday morning after The Associated Press reported that the administration was planning to mobilize National Guard troops.

"There is no effort at all to round up, to utilize the National Guard to round up illegal immigrants," White House press secretary Sean Spicer said of the report, according to pool reports.

The AP, citing a draft memo, said that the administration could use up to 100,000 troops.

The AP report comes as a string of high-profile immigration raids have sparked backlash from outside groups and Democrats.

"I just hope it’s not true that Chuck Schumer regularly has sex with Border Collies."

The media should keep asking that question until he is forced to verify or deny if it's true.

Come on Chuck....why the silence...he's refusing to say anything about this despicable accusation.

Where did this supposed draft memo come from?

From one of the fantasy writers at AP. They don't even try very hard anymore to hide the act that they're lying.

Wouldn't put it past Schmuckie to have done it himself. False Flag operation to get him in front of the cameras.

So, some people on the left make up fake reports about what the administration is planning to do. Then the rest of the left steps up to the plate and complains about how terrible these actions would be!

Naturally, the ONLY reason that administration doesn’t take the action (which it was NEVER planning in the first place!) is that the Schumer’s of the world called them out and “saved” us all from the terrible Trumpers.

Sounds like a game plan to me. That meme can be repeated indefinitely on any number of topics.

No, Schmucky, having groups of people who are above the law is as un American as it gets.

He “hopes it’s not true?”

I’m pretty sure he would sell his soul ( again ) to make it true. What a maroon!

Keep the totalitarians all wrapped up in emotion-packed, fake stories so they stay away from real issues like laws and stuff.
