Thread: Pulling US aid to Honduras would fuel, not fight, illegal immigration

I do NOT say that and I'm not in charge of making that decision and unlike you I don't pretend to be.

Hmm, guess you got caught making up your own facts. Not cool.

I honestly don't know what the truth is, but if I were to venture a guess, I'd say the reasons they're coming varies from person to person. Some may be as you describe, but I'm sure some aren't.

Whatever the case, it's not appropriate to make up lies and try to pass them off as truth. Doing so hurts your credibility, our credibility, and ALIPAC's credibility (IMO).

President Trump pulled the aid. I support that decision and hope he sticks with it and pulls their trade too, until they stop coming here.

I had no idea how thin-skinned you, stoptheinvaders and JD2 are when it comes to illegal aliens. I'm sure I'm right about the nurse and teacher and hope Veritas or someone explores this and finds out just who these people really are, because they are not who they say they are, and they are not invading the US for the reasons they give. They are con artists, every single one of them.

I have posted the sob stories as part of a news article, and often I call them out for their sob stories.

Yet, you accuse us of "while you all suck in every single piece of crap the left wing media can push down your throats like it was honey"

Proof I called them out earlier today

Separating child from parent is A_OK on that end, but causes a national crisis once they reach the border.

One 22 year old left without telling his wife, he didn't want her to suffer. I suppose it is better to have her think he just disappeared, no worries then.

These reporters really need to do a better job with sob stories.

I don't think he actually pulled it. He threatened to pull it.

Someone posted an article yesterday when Pence was in Central America about Trump having pulled $2.6 billion of aid from Honduras because Honduras hadn't met the necessary conditions to curb illegal immigration. I think he's going to pull it all shortly and has already given them phone notice today, based on his Tweet I just posted a couple of minutes ago.
