Mom of Illegal Immigrant Says Her Son Came to U.S. Because ‘They Don’t Deport Children’

While the White House continues to insist the influx of children from Central America has nothing to do with its immigration policies, mounting evidence is proving otherwise.

In addition to a leaked internal memo that pins the administration’s lax enforcement laws as responsible for the recent humanitarian crisis in Texas and Arizona, Jorge Ramos, anchor of the Spanish-language television network Univision, further challenged the Obama narrative that the surge is a direct response to violence and poverty in Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras.In an interview with a Marlen Mena Bautista, a Honduran mother whose 15-year-old son recently crossed the border illegally, Ramos found that children are instead coming to the United States because of a widespread perception that they won’t be deported.

RAMOS: Do you have the perception that once children cross the border to the United States, they won’t be deported?

BAUTISTA: That is what is being said in Central America, almost all the time. Almost everyone is saying it.

RAMOS: So what is being said in Central America is that they don’t deport children. So once they enter this country, they stay in this country?

BAUTISTA: Yes. I imagine that is why he decided to come.

Responsible for promoting the message that the current influx is a result of poverty and violence in Central America is Cecilia Munoz, director of the White House Domestic Policy Council. Munoz joined Ramos for an interview, refuting his claim that in Central America there is an impression that a child who crosses the border to the United States is never going to be deported.

“That is not so,” said Munoz. “[The children] are in deportation proceedings, and many of them will have to go back,” she added.

Busted her.Cecilia Munoz, director of the White House Domestic Policy Council. Munoz joined Ramos for an interview, refuting his claim that in Central America there is an impression that a child who crosses the border to the United States is never going to be deported.“That is not so,” said Munoz. “[The children] are in deportation proceedings, and many of them will have to go back,” she added.Yet, when asked by Ramos how many of the 24,000 Central American children detained last year by the Border Patrol have been deported, Munoz deflected.

“They are still in the process. It is a lengthy process. So I can’t tell you the number exactly,” she said. ...(.Like they said nobody will be deported and she confirms this as she states I don't know...how many or when or where...Would not expect anything less from Team Obama..)

Word must be out that Obama is holding parties for illegals so come on down and enjoy this added benefit

“We should just put them to work in the old factories.”

The company I worked at had one of the most advanced automated assembly lines in the country. Then they lost their military contract. Because they owed local taxes based on the purchase price they tore it out and scrapped it within a month. (The tax was a couple of million a year.) So, we couldn’t even bid on work that would have used that equipment. Because of taxes you often find that companies tear down their buildings or dispose of their equipment. So, what old factories? There might be some buildings left, but the jobs are long gone.

Children become adults pretty darn quick. This is out of control.

This country is under the most intense, unopposed invasion of our borders we have ever experienced, made possible by the Obama administration who is intentionally making the whole thing possible. Between the middle east falling apart, criminal behavior by Obama’s IRS, Benghazi, and who knows what tomorrow, we are being Cloward/Pivened to death by a Marxist who got snuck into the Whitehouse under the excuse of being half black. This situation is the worst challenge to this country I have ever witnessed in my baby boomer life.
