'You're a Liar': Pro-Immigration Demonstrators Confront Pelosi Over DACA Talks With Trump
NBC Bay Area ^ | Riya Bhattacharjee

Things got a little heated Monday when a group of young immigrants confronted House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi at a pro-DACA press conference in San Francisco.

Several dozen young immigrants shouted down the top House Democrat, following her recent conversations with President Donald Trump over the future of a program that grants many of them legal status.

"We are immigrant youth, undocumented and unafraid," they chanted, taking over a scheduled press conference Pelosi, along with Reps. Barbara Lee and Jared Huffman, organized to call for the immediate passage of the Dream Act, a federal proposal that offered many of the same protections as the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, but was never approved by Congress.

“...undocumented and unafraid,”


Trump will fix that. Or they can leave on their own.

I think this is brilliantly staged by democrats. It makes Nancy look normal and gives her cover to be more radical.

“Look what I am going through. I am only doing what ‘my constituents’ want.”

Democrats don’t let things like this happen. I think it is a way for them to get extra publicity. It has happened several times to Nancy now but not with other politicians. Can someone get some video from the other occasions when they protested Nancy and see if there are any familiar faces?

They aren’t “immigrants” if they’re here illegally.

That’s called “invasion” because it’s conducted by force.

Who would have ever thought we would see foreign nationals rioting on our streets telling us they aren’t leaving and we have no right to make them?

Were these pro-Immigration (Green Card) demonstrators, or pro-Wet Back (Illegals) demonstrators?

I couldn't tell from the headline.

I know dims, and the RINOs that love them, have done quite well for themselves selling out America.
But they should realise this..these people could give two craps about honkey Nancy pants.

Politicians like Pelosi sell their souls to get money from business and banks, the rich and powerful.

Whether people on the “Left” or “Right” want to call them out on how actions don’t match words doesn’t matter to me.

The Republican Party isn’t Conservative and the Democrat Party isn’t Liberal.

Isn’t this the 2nd time this has happened to Nancy Pelosi? Maybe ICE should follow her around and just wait for her to speak and nab several illegals at one time with very little work.

Kick their sorry butts out and stop letting them in. How hard is that? Those who would like to enter for whatever reason need to get in line like everyone else and should only be let in for the absolute convenience/benefit of America or other extreme circumstances to be thoroughly scrutinized. The pathetic fallacy that there are jobs an American won’t or can’t do is pure BS.

“Staged? You’re nuts! All this did was make the libs look out of control.”

It’s a tactic the Left uses to get attention. They did the same to Cantor just before he was ousted. What you need to look at is the circumstances surrounding the ‘protest’.

In this case, how did several dozen crappily-dressed Illegals manage to get into a press conference featuring the leading Democrat in the country? Likewise, roughly the same number of Illegals managed to stage a ‘sit-in’ at Cantor’s DC office...try that and see how far you get...and cameras just happened to be rolling too.

I’m not sure the tactic works - in Cantor’s case, they were trying to make him look tough on Illegal Immigration, to keep him from being ousted over it...but thankfully his constituents didn’t buy it. Here, I’m not sure, but they may be trying to make Pelosi also ‘look tough’ so that whatever she agrees to doesn’t look like a sell-out to Trump.

The lib media would have to be part of this and run with it for days and it’s not happening.

While nothing is impossible your theory is a bit too tinfoil hat for me.
