Democrats, the mainstream media, and left-wing reporters are twisting President Trump’s words in calling MS-13 illegal alien gang members “animals.”

During a roundtable discussion of California’s sanctuary state laws, Fresno Sheriff Margaret Mims mentioned to Trump the difficulty of working with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency to notify them of an illegal alien MS-13 gang member.

In response, Trump called the MS-13 gang members “animals,” as he’s done in the past.

MIMS: There could be an MS-13 gang member, I know about, if they don’t reach a threshold, I cannot tell ICE about them. [Emphasis added]

TRUMP: We have people coming into the country — they’re trying to come in, we’re stopping a lot of them — but we’re taking out of the country. You wouldn’t believe how bad these people are. These aren’t people. These are animals. And we’re taking them out of the country at a level and at a rate that’s never happened before. And because of the weak laws, they come in fast, we get them, we release them, we get them again, we bring them out. It’s crazy. The dumbest laws, as I said before, the dumbest laws on immigration in the world. So we’re going to take care of it. We’ll get it done. [Emphasis added]

Following the statement by Trump, the Daily Beast published a headline that claimed the president was referring to “some deported immigrants” when he called MS-13 gang members “animals.”

Neoconservative Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin attacked Trump’s Evangelical supporters, posting a link to a report by The Hill which claimed the president called all illegal aliens “animals.”

The violent El Salvadorian MS-13 gang has flourished in the U.S. after decades of open borders policies whereby unaccompanied minors are resettled throughout the country. Sometimes, those unaccompanied minors are already members of MS-13 or become members.

As Breitbart Texas reported, there have been at least 200 murders by the MS-13 gang across 22 states since 2012. Most recently, Border Patrol revealed to Breitbart Texas that an MS-13 gang member traveling with a caravan of 1,200 Central Americans posed as an unaccompanied minor to gain entry to the U.S.

An explosive report by Breitbart News revealed that nearly 100 MS-13 gang members had been resettled across the country by the federal government as unaccompanied minors. Nearly 65 of those gang members were granted Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJ), which acts as a quasi-amnesty program for young illegal aliens who cross the southern border.

Donald Trump, Jr. Slams NBC’s Andrea Mitchell: ‘You’d Rather Side With MS-13 Than Pres. Trump’

NBC Chief Foreign Correspondent Andrea Mitchell led the pack Wednesday afternoon in lying about President Donald Trump calling immigrants ‘animals’ when he was speaking about MS-13 gang members at a round table discussion on California’s sanctuary policies for illegal aliens. Much of the media and many Democrats joined Mitchell in lying about Trump’s comments.

CBS News was the exception in the media, posting video and reporting online about Trump’s comments in proper context.

President Trump on Wednesday encouraged the Justice Department to investigate Oakland’s Mayor Libby Schaaf for “obstruction of justice,” after she tipped off immigrant communities about an Immigration and Customs Enforcement sweep. Mr. Trump made the comments in a California “sanctuary state” roundtable at the White House, with Attorney General Jeff Sessions feet away down the table.

“To me, that’s obstruction of justice,” Mr. Trump said. “And perhaps the Department of Justice can look into that…”

According to the White House pool reporter in the room, Sessions sat stone-faced as Mr. Trump made those remarks.

The president also called some illegal immigrants not human, but “animals,” after Fresno’s mayor expressed the difficulty in capturing and punishing illegal immigrants accused of crimes, such as members of the MS-13 gang.

“We have people coming into the country, or trying to come in — and we’re stopping a lot of them — but we’re taking people out of the country,” Mr. Trump said. “You wouldn’t believe how bad these people are. These aren’t people. These are animals. And we’re taking them out of the country at a level and at a rate that’s never happened before. And because of the weak laws, they come in fast, we get them, we release them, we get them again, we bring them out. It’s crazy.”…

I completely agree, if I were president, the borders would be militarized and I would have all gang bangers and drug runners shot on sight. These MS-13 aren't just animals, they are rabid animals at that.

The media showing once again that they have no shame acting like Trump was saying what he said about MS-13 applies to all immigrants. At what point do we discuss getting these media outlets shut down? They aren't interested in reporting news, they are nothing, but over glorified political activists.

They are animals. And we do not want their MOTHERS coming across our border either. THEY gave birth to these animals. And where are the fathers???

The whole family needs to be deported. They are all related and crime is in the whole family. It follows them here.

By S.A. Miller - The Washington Times - Thursday, May 17, 2018

The White House on Thursday fiercely defended President Trump’s use of the word “animals” to describe illegal immigrants in the MS-13 gang.

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said the word “animals” didn’t go far enough in describing the brutal street gang known for hacking people to death with machetes.

“It took an animal to stab a man 100 times and rip his heart out,” she said, referring to a reported MS-13 attack. “I think the term animal doesn’t go far enough.”

Mr. Trump came under fire from immigrant-right groups for making the comment Wednesday in a meeting with local officials who have challenged California’s sanctuary-state law.

Mr. Trump did not specify MS-13 in his remark, but he was responding to a sheriff’s complaint that under the California law her office can’t contact immigration officials about known MS-13 members.

“The president was very clearly referring to MS-13 gang members who enter our country illegally,” said Mrs. Sanders.

She added, “If liberals and the media want to defend MS-13 they are welcome to.”

From March 2, 2017, The violence and viciousness is is incomprehensible to a civilized person.

Then there are the murders in Virginia at the doorstep of the capitol but perhaps the Democrats don't keep up with the local news...or they live under a rock. IMO MS-13 started moving into Northern Virginia in the 90's.
MS-13 Gang Members Arrested in Girls’ Killings on Long Island, Police Say

March 2, 2017

CENTRAL ISLIP, N.Y. — The four young men sat nonchalantly in a federal courthouse here on Thursday afternoon, barely raising their eyebrows when a judge said they could face the death penalty for their roles in the killings of two teenage girls in September.

Instead, one of the four, Jairo Saenz, a leader of the local clique of a transnational gang with Salvadoran roots, grinned, swiveled in his chair and hardly looked at the crying relatives from El Salvador in the back of the courtroom.

Mr. Saenz, 19, was one of five people arrested Thursday morning in Suffolk County on Long Island as part of a federal sweep that targeted 13 adult members of the gang, MS-13. An additional three people were charged as juveniles, and their records were sealed. As of Thursday evening, 14 people were in custody, with two yet to be arrested.

In a midday news conference at the federal courthouse here, Robert L. Capers, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of New York, announced the indictments and the arrests made by the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Long Island gang task force.

“For far too long on Long Island, MS-13 has been meting out its own version of the death penalty,” Mr. Capers said.

In the back of the courtroom — on the opposite side from the gang members’ families — sat Evelyn Rodriguez, the mother of Kayla Cuevas, 16, who, along with Kayla’s friend Nisa Mickens, 15, the government said was killed by the men. Ms. Rodriguez sat stoically.

“I’m really overwhelmed,” she said, emerging from the courtroom.

The trial of the 13 adult gang members is scheduled for April 10.

Mr. Capers said that 10 of the 13 adult gang members were undocumented immigrants, and that three of the gang members who were accused of direct involvement in the killings of Kayla and Nisa in Brentwood, N.Y., on Sept. 13, were undocumented immigrants. He said Mr. Saenz’s older brother, Alexi, 22, who also was charged in the killings, was a legal permanent resident.

Earlier, four gang members were arrested in connection with the killing of José Peña-Hernandez, 18, whose remains were found in the woods near a hospital in October. They are also undocumented immigrants.

The federal charges include racketeering, seven murders, attempted murders, obstruction of justice, arson and conspiracy. Since the killings, the Suffolk County Police Department has arrested more than 125 MS-13 members, officials have said. The arrests on Thursday are the only ones in conjunction with federal authorities.

“We have promised to eradicate MS-13 from our streets, and we remain committed to finishing the job,” Suffolk County Police Commissioner Timothy Sini said.

Although we are keenly aware that nothing will ever undo the heartbreaking loss of Nisa and Kayla, we can take solace in the fact that their savage murderers will be held accountable,” he said.

Eleven gang killings in Suffolk County last year were attributed to MS-13, and the cases became a referendum on illegal immigration, because a majority of the members had come to the United States illegally.

But Mr. Sini said that while the police worked with the F.B.I., they also depended on the cooperation of all community members. He said that he would not authorize his officers to become immigration agents as President Trump had directed in an executive order on immigration enforcement.

“Any law enforcement official worth their salt wants a community to feel comfortable providing law enforcement information about specific crimes and also about public safety issues in their community,” Mr. Sini said after the news conference, “and without the cooperation of the community, the mission is compromised.”

At the news conference, Mr. Capers gave the first extended description of the killings on the night of Sept. 13. He said that Kayla had been feuding with gang members at school and via social media. Nisa “was at the wrong place at the wrong time, with her childhood friend,” he said.

About 8:30 p.m., the two girls were walking on the street, having just left Kayla’s home, as Selvin Chavez and Enrique Portillo, both 19, and two juvenile gang members were cruising in a car, looking for rival gang members to assault or kill, Mr. Capers said.

The MS-13 members spotted the girls and placed a call to the Saenz brothers: Jairo Saenz’s gang name was Funny, and Alexi Saenz’s was Blasty. The brothers gave the order to kill the girls, and their henchmen wasted no time. They first came upon Nisa and bludgeoned her using baseball bats and machetes. She suffered such blunt-force trauma to her face and body, Mr. Capers said, that she was unrecognizable.

Kayla, he said, “ran for her life.” A crafty left-handed basketball player, she made it into the woods next to a house off a cul-de-sac, but the gang members caught her, swiftly ending her life. They drove off, leaving the bodies.

“This was the worst I had ever seen,” Mr. Sini said of the crime scene.

Mr. Capers said that Mr. Peña-Hernandez was a member of the gang, and that fellow members suspected that he was a police informant and killed him. His bones were found a month after the girls were killed.

The transnational gang has taken hold on Long Island in the last 10 years; 2016 was an especially violent year. But as a result of increased patrols and a crackdown on gang members, Mr. Sini said violent crime in Suffolk County had dropped by 45 percent.

Ms. Rodriguez said her husband called her at work, telling her that the police had come to the house to tell them Kayla’s and Nisa’s killers had been caught. She sobbed and went immediately to the chapel in her workplace.

“Today is a celebration,” she said, expressing her gratitude to law enforcement. “I know Kayla is up in heaven saying, ‘Mom, you did it.’”

Pack of MS-13 members choke, kick, stomp, beat 2 men with tree limbs at Md. park
by Kevin Lewis, ABC7 News
Wednesday, July 19th 2017

WHEATON, Md. (WJLA) - Yet another case of unbridled violence at the hands of alleged MS-13 members has made its way into news headlines in Montgomery County.
Around 7 p.m. on June 14, two men were walking in the Wheaton Regional Park, located about two miles northeast of the Westfield Wheaton Mall. As the men approached a public restroom to wash their hands and face, they encountered five Hispanic men staring them down.

Pack of 15 MS-13 members nearly killed two men beside this Wheaton Regional Park lake. The victims were choked/kicked/hit w/ tree branches.
8:46 PM - Jul 19, 2017

The men did their best to ignore the awkward situation, but the five suspects followed them inside of the otherwise empty bathroom. One victim had his hat knocked off his head. The other victim had his North Face backpack taken.

The five suspects separated and interrogated the two men, asking if they were affiliated with a certain gang, what country they were born in and what high school they attended.

The suspects confiscated cell phones from both men, searching for photos and text messages that would allude to gang ties. One suspect used a knife to demand the screen lock password set on one of the phones.

The five suspects took the two men to a pavilion beside the park's main playground area. There the suspects called for reinforcements. Despite repeatedly denying any gang allegiance, the victims continued to be held against their will. It wasn't long before 10 more men arrived at the park, bringing the total number of suspects to 15.

Seeking more privacy, the suspects forcefully led the victims through some 300 yards of wooded land to a secluded lake on the park's property. Police described the walk as, more or less, a death march.

Beside the shore of that small lake, the victims were encircled, patted down, photographed and had their wallets taken. Then for the first time, the pack stated they were part of MS-13. They further explained their belief that one victim's Nike Cortez shoes and red hat suggested he was a member of the rival 18th Street Gang.

Without provocation, all 15 MS-13 members began to punch the two men in the head and chest. Upon falling to the ground, the victims were placed in "chokeholds, kicked and stomped on," court documents state. A few members went so far as to grab hold of large tree limbs, using the heavy, coarse wood to beat the victims' defenseless bodies.

One of the men reportedly grabbed hold of a knife and shouted, "Let's just kill them now!" Other members secured weapons of their own when two park patrons happened upon the ongoing assault. Those witnesses inadvertently spooked all 15 MS-13 members, in turn, making them scurry away.

The two victims ran in the opposite direction, finding help at a nearby dog park. They later told officers they had feared death as the countless blows and kicks were issued with seemingly fatal force. Paramedics transported both men to Suburban Hospital in Bethesda with severe injuries. Their current medical conditions are not known.

MORE: MNCPP have caught/charged four suspects, but 11 are still at large. Those in custody facing attempted murder/assault/kinapping counts.
8:49 PM - Jul 19, 2017

So far, Maryland-National Capital Park Police have arrested four individuals, charging each with at least a dozen criminal counts that include attempted second-degree murder, first-degree assault and kidnapping. However, 11 suspects remain at large. Investigators are calling the felony case "open and fluid" but have refused to disclose any additional details. MNCPP also refused to release mug shots of the adult suspects currently in custody, an uncommon move in the law enforcement community.

Nevertheless, here is what we know about each of the four accused MS-13 members already facing charges in this case.

Jose Alberto Sibrian-Garcia, 25, lives in a rental home along the 4400 block of Randolph Road in Silver Spring. Court documents indicate Sibrian-Garcia was born in El Salvador and resides with his fiancée in an upstairs bedroom. The 25-year-old has worked as a landscaper for the last 18 months, and previously did work as a day laborer. Sources tell ABC7 U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is actively reviewing his immigration paperwork. He is presently in Montgomery County custody.

Albaro Moreno, 20, lives in an apartment along the 13500 block of Georgia Avenue in Aspen Hill. He is currently in Montgomery County custody.

Jose Joya-Parada, 16, lives in an apartment along the 13500 block of Georgia Avenue in Aspen Hill. He is currently in Montgomery County custody.

On Monday, Montgomery County State's Attorney John McCarthy spoke before the Montgomery County Council's Public Safety Committee about the continual rise in violent gang activity and crime, most notably with regard to MS-13. According to McCarthy, at any given time, 25 percent of Montgomery County’s jail inmates openly confess allegiance to a gang. McCarthy suggested a change in mentality is needed at the county level to thwart the mounting issue.

"I really don't know if we have a real idea of the full extent to which there is gang crime in the county," McCarthy stated with great candor.

Police: MS-13 men beat sex-trafficked girl with bat 28 times, 'indented' part of her body

KENSINGTON, Md. (WJLA) - A female human trafficking victim too young to legally drive a car or buy a lottery ticket was savagely beaten with a bat by a pack of incensed MS-13 members, Montgomery County Police said.

Late last month, Ivan Alexis Pena-Rodriguez, 20, Yervin Josue Romero-Rivera, 21, and Miguel Angel Ayala-Rivera, 24, were all formally charged with first-degree assault, plus other assorted criminal counts.
According to court documents obtained by WJLA, Montgomery County authorities served a search and seizure warrant at a suspected MS-13 hangout house along the 11200 block of Valley View Avenue in Kensington, near Albert Einstein High School. As a result of that warrant, an unnamed source told detectives about an incident that left a 15-year-old girl "severely" wounded and bloody.

NEW: MS-13 members clobber 15yo prostitute with bat 28 times because she was “not doing a good job”-MoCo Police say.

The five men took turns hitting girl in backyard of a Kensington MS-13 hangout house.

The girl was left bloody, her skin discolored + her buttocks “indented.”
7:45 AM - Feb 16, 2018

The source explained Ayala-Rivera, a high-ranking local MS-13 leader who goes by the nickname "Noctorno," pimps out a number of underage girls from a number of states. On Aug. 1, 2017, the source said Pena-Rodriguez, Romero-Rivera, Ayala-Rivera, plus two other men, used a solid bat to beat the girl behind the single-family home along Valley View Avenue. The men reportedly took turns whacking the 15-year-old girl's flailing body — 28 swings in total. Her injuries included an "indented" buttocks, discolored arms and legs, and visible bleeding from the neck down.

A second unnamed source would later tell cops that Ayala-Rivera ('Noctorno') ordered the backyard clubbing because he felt the victim was "not doing a good job as an MS-13 prostitute." The same source revealed Ayala-Rivera ('Noctorno') raked in a lot of money by trafficking teenage girls to men of all ages.

Detectives managed to speak with the young victim by telephone, but she was too nervous to provide her location or even admit to being brutally assaulted by the gang. She did, however, state she had been at the Valley View Avenue address and knew some of the defendants.

According to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Romero-Rivera is in the United States illegally. ICE has submitted an immigration detainer with Montgomery County authorities for him. An official document obtained from Montgomery County's Department of Correction and Rehabilitation explains Ayala-Rivera also has a pending ICE detainer. As for Pena-Rodriguez, court paperwork indicates he was born in El Salvador, but ICE explains it cannot publicly share information about the 20-year-old.

Romero-Rivera and Ayala-Rivera were already in jail awaiting trial for their alleged roles in a string of armed robberies at check cashing businesses across the area. The streak of high-stakes heists ended in November with a police chase along Interstate 495 in College Park that netted five suspects, plus a stockpile of guns and cash.

Violence committed by MS-13 in communities like Gaithersburg, Montgomery Village, Silver Spring and Wheaton has seen a sharp increase over the last five years in particular. The Montgomery County Police Department and Montgomery County State's Attorney's Office, in conjunction with state and federal authorities, have increased funding and manpower, but the work remains a sizable challenge. Language barriers, deportation misnomers and the fear of witness retaliation are all constant hurdles for detectives to clear, this human trafficking case being no exception.

Beezer wrote "Death penalty within 48 hours." and you agreed! :confused:

Maryland abolished the death penalty 5 years ago so it's moot. The rest of her post is great so of course I liked it. You confuse yourself a lot, are you okay?! Maybe you need to grab your photo ID and visit Beezer's doctor.
