The story of a hoax that was concocted on social media and amplified by Washington officials alongside the complicit mainstream media.
The Haitian migrant crisis is another catastrophe in a seri-s of disasters that plagues the beleaguered Harris-Biden administration.
There were harrowing images and videos of Haitian migrants wading across the top of a dam over the Rio Grande River to get to Texas. There was also footage of over fifteen thousand migrants crowding in what appeared to be a makeshift migrant camp under the International Bridge in Del Rio, Texas.

A day after the videos were made public, The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) brought in a two-week flight restriction over Del Rio, Texas. This enabled them to block the Fox News drone from taking videos of immigrants under the bridge after mass border crossing by thousands of Haitians. Embarrassed by the resulting controversy, the outrageous order later was rescinded.
But that was just not enough, they desperately needed another angle to distract from this obvious catastrophe.
That distraction came in the form of an image on social media that appeared to show a border agent on horseback whipping a fleeing Haitian immigrant of color.
This photo was like a gift from heaven for the spin masters and it launched a thousand ships of outrage.
AOC, fresh from her MET Gala catastrophe, used Twitter to virtue signal and to denounce the Border Patrol’s actions.
“It doesn’t matter if a Democrat or Republican is President, our immigration system is designed for cruelty towards and dehumanization of immigrants. Immigration should not be a crime, and its criminalization is a relatively recent invention. This is a stain on our country.”

New dimocRAT voters are being disrespected! The horror!
They are INVADERS!
I don’t know why anyone saw a picture of a guy on a horse who was grabbing a guy on foot and decided that someone was being whipped. Makes no sense.
It's a very strange trait or instinct but a horse will do just about anything including risk it's own life and limb, to not step on or squash you.
Slam you into a tree? Sure! Bite you when your back is turned? You betchya. Suck wind so your saddle is cinched loose? Uh-huh. But not squish you.
If only the horses had frickin laser beams?
Where did they get take out?
And immigration control goes back at least as far as the Immigration Act of 1917.
So over 100 years if not longer.
Where did they get take out?

You and I paid for it, no doubt.
That mystified me too. He has his right hand reaching out to collar the guy, so the reins clearly have to be in his left hand, which is high and hidden by the horse’s neck and head.
He simply doesn’t have enough hands to be “whipping” anybody. But the left, ever ignorant, see what they want to see.
Like the article says, the simple assumption that they are lying until proven otherwise will serve you well.
I tell this maxim to my family all the time:
Never trust the first 48 hours of a story being reported by the LAAP-dog media.
Wait for two days before drawing any conclusions about what is being reported.

Mexico, that's what this is really all about. The BP agent did not want to arrest the illegal alien he was just after the tacos.
BP agents love tacos.
