President Donald Trump honored a border patrol officer Monday who discovered dozens of illegal immigrants in the back of trailer.

CBP Agent Adrian Anzaldua discovered 78 illegal immigrants locked in a refrigerated trailer Aug. 11.

The White House held a wide-ranging event honoring members of immigration and customs enforcement along with border patrol agents. The event is in response to the growing “Abolish ICE” movement throughout the Democratic party.

Trump called the agent up to the podium and joked “he didn’t know he was going to do this,” explaining “I want to ask you about that, 78 lives. You saved 78 people. So how did you feel that there were people in that trailer? A lot of trailers.” The agent thanked the president for calling him to the podium and explained how he observed a truck that fled a border patrol checkpoint after a canine triggered an alert.


“I opened the little latch of the back of the tractor-trailer and revealed a lot of subjects. I quickly asked for backup and backup got there and the subjects were transported back to transport back to the checkpoint and all of them were in good health,” he said.

Does this leave any doubt at all that Trump has NO intention of stopping this invasion?

Does this leave any doubt at all that his entire campaign was a lie on the issue of immigration?

Send all 78 of them BACK over the border!

Stop The Presses! Trump Celebrates The Health And Safety Of Illegal Immigrants

Everyone knows Donald Trump is misogynistic, maniacal, murderous, sinister, and traitorous.


Or at least, that’s what I saw on MSNBC. And in addition to those defining characteristics, the man who is simultaneously a giant dolt and an evil genius is also heavily, heavily racist — particularly against South Americans.


Or at least, that’s what I heard on CNN.


And that’s why you may be confused by Monday’s occurrence — during a tribute to immigration officers, the President called upon agent Adrian Anzaldua in order to honor him for — get ready — saving the lives of over six dozen illegal immigrants.


On August 11th, at a U.S. Border Patrol Checkpoint in Laredo, Texas, a tractor trailer got the attention of a Border Patrol canine. The truck failed to stop at a secondary checkpoint, resulting in a chase and —


I’ll let President Trump tell it from here:

“Just over a week ago, a human smuggler was arrested in Laredo for locking — and really locking — a horrible 78 illegal aliens inside of a (refrigerated) trailer. The border patrol agent who caught the accused, and likely, really, saved many lives — he’s here with us.”

Trump invited Anzaldua to the podium:

“Where’s Adrian? Adrian’s here with us. Thank you, Adrian. Great job. Thank you. It’s a lot of lives. That’s great. … Come here, I wanna ask you about that. 78 lives. You saved 78 people. So how did you feel that there were people in that trailer? There’s a lot of trailers around. Please?”

Anzaldua gave his account of the incident:

“I had a canine alert. A vehicle was referred to secondary and once a vehicle is referred to secondary — well, the tractor trailer — I’m sorry — was referred to secondary, the vehicle proceeded to elude and flee the checkpoint. Shortly after, the vehicle was stopped at the — approximately 30-mark — 30-mile marker — which is a mile north of the checkpoint. Subsequently, I went out there and ran the dog, conducted a non-intrusive search of the vehicle — of the tractor trailer. And once again, the canine alerted. And subsequently, I opened the little latch of the back of the tractor trailer and revealed a lot of subjects. I quickly asked for backup, and backup got there, and the subjects were transported back to transport — back to the checkpoint, and all of them were in good health.”

What?? The President congratulates a man for saving illegal immigrants in good health? Apparently so:

“What a good job he did. What a good job.”

I know what you’re thinking: what did MSNBC do? Let it rain with coverage of, in the ultimate man-bites-dog story, Trump applauding someone for saving dozens of illegal immigrants?
Not exactly. Here’s the YouTube video they posted about the ceremony:

And that’s the news.
