Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, tweeted Sunday that the use of tear gas against Central American migrants who attempted to enter the U.S. illegally may have been a violation of international agreements governing the use of chemical weapons -- before he backtracked.

The Associated Press reported that U.S. agents shot several rounds of the gas after migrants tried to penetrate several points along the border at the San Ysidro border crossing between Tijuana, Mexico, and California. Migrants sought to squeeze through gaps in wire, climb over fences and peel back metal sheeting to enter.

In response to the reports, Schatz initially tweeted: "Tear gas across the border against unarmed families is a new low." Approximately 45 minutes later, Schatz tweeted: "Who gave the order? Did it implement or contravene policy?" He then tweeted "WHO GAVE THE ORDER?" in all caps.

Sadly the left loves to push disinformation which their base reads and believes........

[stars & stripes forever]

SEN. SCHATZ should be censored and forced from office.

Isn’t Schatz the past tense of Schitz?

[EagleUSA]

Yawn. Typical lying DemocRAT scum. They know they can get away with it because the MSM lies for them and the Repub cowards will not go after them.

[null and void]

Oh? They all died???

[Rebelbase]

CS is a chemical weapon.

[FrankR]

You can tell he was never in the military and got a 10-minute walk through the “tear gas house”.

Tearful, but otherwise harmless in the long term.

I think he's a third cousin, twice removed, of Schiff.

[CarmichaelPatriot]

And your point is? Did they deploy CS? If not, what?

[glaseatr]

Being he "Deleted" his tweet. Does that mean he Schatz'd all over himself once he realized what we tweeted?

I think the solution it to pull up to TJ with a cruise ship, load it up ,and take them to Hawaii.

[taxcontrol]

Not harmless for some of us. I ended up bleeding out of the nose and mouth. Scared the hell out of my drills.

Half way to Hawaii only.

CNN Hoax “Operation Tailwind” all over again.

[dforest]

Yes he should. This foments a real danger to society when a person blatantly lies like this.

[going hot]

Plank walking for the misbehavers.

[going hot]

Would shut a lot of mouths and open a lot of eyes.

[b4me]

so they can more easily get fake docs and hop planes to anywhere else in USA?

[Mears]

Especially if they were dropped off on Lanai or Kauai where many of the rich libs have their hideaways————maybe they would re-think things then.
