Thursday at a field hearing in Texas pertaining to the surge of unaccompanied minors at the U.S.-Mexico border, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) balked at the suggestion of Homeland Security Chairman Rep. Mike McCaul (R-TX) that the children filling the border facilities need to be detained and deported by holding up a bag of lollipops to demonstrate her view that compassion not deportation is in order.
Referring to the illegal immigrant minors as "homeless children," Jackson Lee said, "I took lollipops along with my colleagues into the detention center where children were. I wasn't armed. I wasn't fearful for my life. This is not a national security crisis this is a humanitarian crisis."
The Texas lawmaker added, "The children should be given the basic covered of the law that is in existence today that will allow us to treat them in a humane way."

That yaba daba weave on her head is waaaaayyyy too tight. She is ignant.
Why not both?
Would it be too horrible to hope this dolt caught some awful germ from one of her precious illegals?
SJL. Brilliant, as always.
Mail her bags of lollipops, so many the post office won’t know what to do with them?????
Note to SJL: The border child you ordered will be delivered to your apartment later today.
Okay, how many of them is she going to take in? None? Yea, I thought so.
How many are they sending to her District ?
Mizz Jackson Lee, OTOH, is just plain stupid. Dumb as a box of rocks. With apologies to the mineral samples ...
SUPER IDEA! No return addresses...
“I wasn’t armed. I wasn’t fearful for my life.”
Because you were surrounded by armed men provided at my expense, just like you are every second of every day, you elitists hypocrite fascist thug.
She’s no Shirley Temple.
What a shame and a sham.
Will she salute the flag we planted on Mars this 4th?
Wonder who paid for the candy?
Not her. She has no idea how to make anything except BS.
Michelle won’t approve of the lollipops———maybe carrot sticks would have been better.

They don’t even have to keep up pretenses any more.... the libtard media will let them get away with saying anything.
I guess Moochelle is OK with this?
Where is she?
Eleanor, our other Fabian Socialist President’s 1st Lady would be all over this.
Not sure Humanitarian means today what it used to tho.
Entitlement mindset.
We already have one subculture of worthless parasites.
Yeah I remember every time I did something naughty I got a lollipop..
