Rep. Barbara Lee accuses Trump administration of 'criminalizing' illegal immigrants

Rep. Barbara Lee, California Democrat, accused the Trump administration Sunday of “criminalizing” illegal immigrants.

Ms. Lee, who joined a congressional delegation that visited intake and detention facilities Saturday near the border in Texas, described the conditions as “tragic.”

“I mean, these people are being criminalized,” said Ms. Lee on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “We went into the processing center, where there are cages, certainly. People think there aren’t, there are, we saw these cages.”

At the detention center, she said, “we talked to maybe 10 or 15 mothers. These are jails. These are prisons. These are people who are being criminalized.”

I wonder what this person would say the same thing about Bonnie and Clyde and how the authorities criminalized them for robbing banks.

Princess Leah wannabe is the results of blind affirmative action African boosting. She is not competent to make statements on criminals when the person is unquestionably a criminal.

She is confused.Illegals either committed misdemeanors or felonies by being here illegally. Last time I checked that behavioris already criminalized.

Liberals are totally consumed by Trump derangement syndrome. Nothing coming from their mouths has an ounce of sanity.

Uh when someone commits an illegal act and are caught they are the very definition of a criminal. This lady is acting as an accessory by aiding the criminals in the commission of their crime.

What a maroon!

They are called ILLEGAL aliens for a reason: because they have crossed the border or overstayed their viesa and hence are in the country ILLEGALLY.

Sombody get this illiterate woman a dictionary.

Everybody can see the difference in your hypothetical. Bonnie and Clyde were WHITE.

Yes, the criminals identifying themselves as criminals....well, maybe that is a good step forward. Even the stupid RATS cannot get away from the fact that criminals are criminals.....
