The truth behind this photo of an ‘immigrant child’ crying inside a cage
WGNTV ^ | 6/18/18 | CNN WIRE

Posted on 06/18/2018 7:55:40 PM PDT by ifinnegan

A photo of a little boy crying in a cage is being shared on social media as seemingly another heart-rending byproduct of the White House’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy, which separates undocumented parents and kids at the border.

There’s only one problem: The picture is being completely taken out of context — and does not show what it is purported to show.

I encourage everyone to listen to this interview from Breitbart Radio last night with Brandon Darby. They discuss the 2014 photo of children in processing centers with space blankets, and the true plight of illegal alien border crossers. It's heartbreaking stuff, especially when you follow it with how our crass MSM covered it up during the Obama years and are blaming Trump for it now.

The rats are not winning with this narrative. Read comments on news articles and fb. Other than tightly controlled lefty bubbles most people support enforcing immigration laws and know the media and the left are lying. This is part of the same as the DACA crying and lying; the average person sees this as showing that politicians, media, special interest groups, and Democrats in general care more about illegals than our own country and our people.

We need to continue to hit back hard at the lies, and expose the truth. Be sure to comment on the articles if possible. Their narrative is not reaching people other than the kool aid drinkers that follow their talking points. The public protests are not even drawing enough people to hold signs.

The loony left knows they are not winning this and is having a melt down. This morning on fb a lady who is an elementary teacher- was calling people names, cussing people out, calling people racist bigots- she got so wound up she was defending MS 13 and other illegal criminals and telling people that did not support open borders and illegal immigration to f$%k off..without the symbols! Does that sound like she thinks her arguments are winning?

I have seen this rage the past several days...they know they are not winning hearts and minds, they know people are fed up with illegal immigration. President Trump did not make a secret that he was campaigning on enforcing immigration laws and securing the border. He won, that tells me people are fed up. Don’t forget Hillary felt the need to “talk tough” about illegal immigration! What do you think she was hearing even from Democrats for her to do that.

We just need to keep on keeping on, stand tall, do all we can to get the facts out. We cannot back down, if we back down they win. There is too much at stake here for us to allow the left to steamroll us as they have for years. Backing down so many times over the years is why we have the major problems to deal with now.

Indeed I have a little time since summer at work is slower, and I have been over social media calling these people out all over the place.
We all need to fight back , and not let these bastards get away with their lies, and the narrative.
Funny I say how N. Korea has come to the table, how the economy is doing great, how ISIS is smashed,a and l the other great things happening is now not being reported on, but the media focus on this directed by media matters.

Here is one example of the meme going round

The people peddling it don't care if it's pointed out to be fake.

These sick libtards deliberately distort the truth to feed their anti-Trump agenda.

And the fools who believe anything they see on Farcebook without question are showing either strong slanted political view, or their simple minds.

GOOD ONE, Tad--- exploiting a picture of Child Abuse for political gain. Another classy move for libs.

========================================

In order to see the picture of a disintegrating Democratic Party, just take a look at their disturbed acolytes in Hollyweird....

<><> Meryl Streep lacerated Trump at Hollywood's Golden Globes gala;

<><> Robert DeNiro publicly profaned the president of the United States and got got a standing ovation from his fellow weirdos;

<><> Peter Fonda went ballistic and suggested the president's son should be kidnapped and caged with pedopiles.

=======================================

REALITY CHECK --- DNC head Perez declared upon taking the job, “abortion-on-demand is Democrats’ ticket to victory.”

But Perez's abortion worship tactic failed miserably.

So I guess Perez is looking at infanticide, maybe assisted suicide?

Perez must know mercy killing of the Hollywood elite is a definite vote-getter......Streep, DeNiro and Fonda can go first.

Whatever—those ‘cages’ are no doubt cleaner, healthier and safer than the s**tholes they came from. Where are the pics of ‘families’? All I’ve seen are teens and adults. In any case, child abuse charges should be brought against anyone transporting kids, illegally, into another country.
