In Texas Camp, GOP Sees INVASION While Democrats See Mistreatment of Haitian Migrants (ILLEGALS); Border Patrol Union Leader Slams White House and Media for Claims of ‘whipping’ Migrants, and related stories

In Texas camp, GOP sees invasion while Democrats see mistreatment of Haitian migrants:

Top Democrats, who had been strikingly silent about the illegal immigrant camp that built up on U.S. soil, are now lashing out at the Border Patrol agents assigned to handle the situation, accusing them of abusing the Haitian migrants streaming into the U.S.

Images of agents on horseback trying to block Haitians from reaching the camp, some seemingly deploying reins in the effort, reverberated through Democratic circles Monday.

Rep. Lucille Roybal-Allard, the top Democrat on the subcommittee that handles the Border Patrol’s funding, pronounced herself “deeply disturbed.”

Rep. Bennie G. Thompson, chair of the House Homeland Security Committee, demanded agents be disciplined for “horrific and disturbing” behavior.

“This mistreatment runs counter to our American values and cannot be tolerated,” he said.

This was meant to protect the illegal aliens.
