A 7-year-old girl from Guatemala died of dehydration and shock after she was taken into Border Patrol custody last week for crossing from Mexico into the United States illegally with her father and a large group of migrants along a remote span of New Mexico desert, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said Thursday.

A little more fake news. Is there a federal agency titled Border Control?

The child wasn’t dehydrated from the long journey across dust farms, that her father subjected her to? The left created this mess, directed it, funded it, splashed the news with their propaganda. The blood of this girl and others is on their hands.

We all know there is much more to this.

The AP is, well, quite simply a joke.

And journalism is permanently marked as a bastion of folks who are - well - just not good enough to do anything useful.

“Nearly dead girl gets hauled illegally across the border by abusive dad and human smugglers.”

This is horrible of course. Let’s do an equal parts charge back to Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico plus damages for a helicopter drop return to sender. I want my country back.

I dont see the AP making a fuss about Jamiel Shaw, an actual AMERICAN brutally murdered by an illegal alien. This girls father or whoever the hell brought her here had NO business bringing her here, but they come here for the freebies which they are promised by the Dems, and that is why they come

She probably got dehydrated on the crossing but this will be spun as if Border agents personally murdered her.

I’m surprised more have not died from that trip for all those days. That’s the price some will pay for taking the trip with children. It wasn’t a case of HAVING to leave their home couontry.. it was a case of them WANTING to.

When the immigrants came here from Europe, some got sick on the trip, some got sick after the long journey with meager food on the way.. some died on the ship... it was what happened when they took a chance.

The father brought the child here.. it’s his choice. There were too many and too long and they were told not to come.. there would be no entrance into the US. Parents put their children in jeopardy.. the US cannot handle a caravan like that. No way were they getting in.. and compassion has nothing to do with “law” and order.

They didn’t help themselves when they brought their flags and stormed the gates.. throwing rocks ... they think that is the way to gain favor?

The parents are responsible for dragging the child thousands of miles from home.

GO HOME!

So separating children from the adults they are travelling with is bad because “family togetherness”, but

NOT separating child from parent bad because “Dehydration”.

You cannot have it both ways.

So this child made it a thousand miles and was alive only to die of dehydration when she finally reaches our border? How convenient!

No 'probably' about it. That's exactly what happened.

7-year-old migrant girl taken into Border Patrol custody dies of dehydration, exhaustion

More than eight hours later, the child began having seizures at 6:25 a.m., CBP records show. Emergency responders, who arrived soon after, measured her body temperature at 105.7 degrees, and according to a statement from CBP, she “reportedly had not eaten or consumed water for several days.”
