See the Government Photos of Migrant Centers – Which Make Me So Proud to Be an American This July 4 – Yessir!

I am so proud to be an American this July 4th! So proud that el Presidente is making us so safe by forcing migrants into overcrowded and squalid cages and rooms and camps.

I am so proud to have our government treat these people this way. So very proud. Fly those stars and stripes – but make sure they’re not the bars and stripes.

So verrry American. But the world may think different. They may think, ‘We treat dogs better than the way Americans are treating migrants at the border.’

This is true. Dogs are treated better than the refugees at the border are being treated. Go to a pound – see how dogs are treated.

I’m afraid that someday, some child will ask us,

“Mummy, daddy, what did you do when our government put people and even small kids in cages by themselves??”

It’s so bad that border agents are complaining; it’s so bad that the Department of Homeland Security’s own independent watchdog called the conditions as overcrowded and squalid, with “standing-room-only cells, children without showers and hot meals, and detainees clamoring desperately for release.”

From the New York Times:

The findings by the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General were released as House Democrats detailed their own findings at migrant holding centers and pressed the agency to answer for the mistreatment not only of migrants but also of their own colleagues, who have been threatened on social media.

In June, inspectors from the department visited five facilities in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, and found children had few spare clothes and no laundry facilities. Many migrants were given only wet wipes to clean themselves and bologna sandwiches to eat, causing constipation and other health problems, according to the report. Children at two of the five facilities in the area were not given hot meals until inspectors arrived.

Overcrowding was so severe that when the agency’s internal inspectors visited some of the facilities, migrants banged on cells and pressed notes to windows begging for help.
