The Patriot Post® · Video: Border Patrol Agent Sets Record Straight on CNN

National Border Patrol Council spokesman Chris Cabrera assures CNN’s Brooke Baldwin that children separated from their parents at the border are treated humanely. Not only that, he destroyed her pathetic attempt to smear the men and women of the Border Patrol.

“I don’t think everybody understands what’s happening down here,” explained Cabrera. “You know, a lot of these kids that are coming here, and put through terrible, terrible situations by their parents; they are brought over in extremely dangerous conditions, in extremely dangerous terrain, and all this can be avoided if they just go through the port of entry. There would be no crime committed by them and they wouldn’t get separated. Why they don’t do this is beyond me. As we all know, when you get arrested, you don’t get to stay with your family.”

“When you see a 12-year-old girl with a Plan B pill, or their parents put her on birth control because they know getting violated is part of the journey, that’s just a terrible way to live. When you see a four-year-old girl traveling completely alone with just her parents’ phone number written across her shirt. I mean, come on now, something needs to be done,” he said. “We had a nine-year-old boy last year have heat stroke in front of us and die with no family around, and that’s because we’re allowing people to take advantage of this system. If we want this law changed,” he insisted, “we need Congress to take action.”

And as Chuck Schumer admitted, Democrats are far too cynically invested in the political gain to allow Congress to take action.
