The crackdown measures on illegal immigration Attorney General Jeff Sessions unveiled in Noagles, Arizona Tuesday continue to draw intense reactions spanning from abject horror to welcome relief.
Professor and Washington Post contributor Daniel W. Drezner began the day by issuing a sincere apology for touching off a viral fake news scandal. Immediately after Tuesday’s announcement, Drezner tweeted that the Attorney General had described all “illegal immigrants” as “filth.” The tweet was quickly retweeted thousands of times and contributed to an outpouring of misdirected outrage at Mr. Sessions over his use of the word. In fact, as Drezner’s apology on the Washington Post website admits, Sessions had in fact been speaking about MS-13 gang members and Mexican drug cartels.
Drezner, however, was careful to note that:
Full disclosure: The hard-working staff here at Spoiler Alerts [Drezner’s Washington Post blog] does not like Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Not one little bit.
I didn’t like him when he was the first senator to endorse Donald Trump. I didn’t like him during the campaign when he dismissed divergent views as “soulless globalism.”
Left-wing Daily Beast website moved past the verbiage of Sessions’s speech to express shock at the substance of his directives. Beast writer Betsy Woodruff characterized the efforts to secure the border by writing, “And with that Sessions officially weaponized the Justice Department to crack down on undocumented immigration.”

Knee jerk.
Mostly jerk......................
undocumented immigration = illegal alien invasion
Well said.
I would have described all illegals as ‘filth’
The only “filth” is the words coming off the presses of that sewer publication the Washington ComPost.
God Bless AG Sessions and damn these mainstream media thugs and the criminals they protect.
Wow, these guys really love to twist the language.

the only thing that will save California is massive deportation.
And not just those who have committed felonies in addition to their being in the country illegally.
The effect on SoCal alone would be astounding.
This could all be a smokescreen, since President Trump has not resend it Obama’s executive actions and orders, has not stopped issuing amnesty, and even endorsed it as part of Ryan’s health care plan. The big picture is Still very troubling.I want to hear about thousands and tens of thousands of illegal aliens being deported. Do you realize that these occasional counts of of 300 and 400 people being deported each day or over several days is meaningless. Even if it was 500, over four years that is only 730,000 people. that is meaningless when we are faced with 30-60 million illegal aliens in the United States today.
And the twitter birds are all a-flutter.
The solutions have been starkly simple for years - enforce the laws already on the books. And enforce them to the degree that no doubt remains.
One might also add an excerpt of the Mexican law code regarding immigration, and hand a copy of it to all the persons who attempt to cross, and to each of the swarm of lawyers who clamor for the right to represent these “visitor” invaders.
What is good for everybody else is equally good for Mexicans. They do not deserve a “special” consideration.
More WaPo fake news. It's a close race as to WaPo or CNN being #1 in fake news. They both try very hard.
Just an honest mistake. #4thEstate5thColumn
LOL
I was kind of hoping that President Trump uses the 0bammy-weaponized government to surveil and leak information on the Democrats in the 2018 and 2020 elections - since the Democrats and the #FakeStreamMedia [but I repeat myself] don’t seem to have a problem with 0bammy doing it to President Trump.
Do those things and illegal aliens will deport themselves and pay for the trip. Motivation is a powerful force.
How dare we try to limit their takeover to California.
Enforcing the law is "weaponizing" a law enforcement agency?
Orwell would give up writing and take up gardening were he alive today. The reality is beyond parody, satire, and metaphor.
NO! End entitlements/welfare for all immigrants. Nobody should come here to collect entitlements/welfare.
—— weaponized the Justice Department——
The weapon is the law, not mad up law by a judge, but real law
There is going t be wailing and lamentations and knashing of teeth when the weapon is brought to bear on the crimilal enterprise that is the democrat party
