Rev. Samuel Rodriguez was "full of indignation" when he saw the reports and heard from politicians about the deplorable and inhumane conditions for illegal immigrants at an El Paso County, Texas migrant detention center. But what he saw at the same facility toured by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. with a group of pastors was "drastically different."
The president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, the world's largest Hispanic Christian organization, and senior pastor of New Seasons Christian Worship Center in Sacramento shared his firsthand experience touring a migrant detention center during a press briefing Monday.
“I read the reports, saw the news clips. I just wanted to see what was actually happening in order to better enable our efforts to find a fair and a just solution to our broken immigration system," Rodriguez, who has advised President Trump and both Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush on immigration reform, noted. “To my surprise, I saw something drastically different from the stories I’ve been hearing in our national discourse. Even as a veteran of immigration advocacy in the U.S., I was shocked at the misinformation of the crisis at the border."

You mean she lied?
Who you gonna believe?
AOC or a group of ministers of God?...................
AOC is a liar. She is a bartender who stole from her fellow workers. She is a liar.
I’ll take “neither” for 200, Alex.
The head of the Border Patrol agents’ union told Fox News that AOC was aggressive and abusive towards the agents when she came. He said video footage of this was shot by PBS, and he called on them to release it.
Yeah, like THAT is gonna happen!
So, did those pastors just blindly believe AOC, on faith?
I would be a whole lot more at ease if the pastors had said “As we suspected, a Democrat, this time AOC, lied, again.”
AOC did her usual thing, reciting what her handlers told her to say before she even arrived. The screaming, the obscenity, the outrage, the outright lies, all part of the now-customary Dem package. It wasn’t a good look.
Being very polite and generous with the wordsmithing there.
Doesn’t anybody read the articles?........
One of the biggest stories of this decade is just who are the shapers and handlers of these people being shoved in our faces? What is their true agenda? Who is footing the bill and arranging the grooming? Why?
Hope they can overcome these lies. They are all over Spanish and English Goebbels Mushroom mainstream media .
AOC is a clown and they know it!.........
“I would be a whole lot more at ease if the pastors had said “As we suspected, a Democrat, this time AOC, lied, again”
Democrats have a strange compulsion to lie & misrepresent. It’s so ingrained in them that the Democrat party, socialism, and liberalism are founded on outright lying & misrepresenting the truth.
It’s a psychological issue that brings them together as one.
The further left you are, the more you have to lie.
The further left you are, the more you have to lie.
Umm...yeah.
They said they were “surprised” and “full of indignation” at reality being so different from what AOC & MSM purported. Isn’t that what the article said?
My point: If they doubted AOC & MSM up front, as they really ought to, they shouldn’t have said the above stuff. Makes them look naive. Should’ve said “We seriously doubted the reporting, came to look, and easily found it was false. Lies.” Theatrics I guess.
That’s good!
They were just being polite by not calling her a liar........
