…Trump ‘Looked us in the eye and told us that our family members didn’t die in vain’
Breitbart ^ | September 14 | Michelle Moons

Posted on 09/14/2017 8:32:11 PM PDT by EliRoom8

Mary Ann Mendoza, mother of slain police officer Brandon Mendoza tweeted on Wednesday night:

>> Don’t you dare turn your back on Angel Moms who stood by you!” and:

Mendoza provided the following statement on Wednesday night in response to the news:

There is nothing President Trump should be negotiating on when it comes to Border Security or an unconstitutional program such as DACA. Congressional and Senate members need to get off their hind ends and start doing something productive instead of drawing lines in the sand. This is NOT a Democratic or Republican issue. This is an AMERICAN issue and they need to start protecting us! The Senate needs to pass HR3003 No Sanctuary for Criminals Act and HR3004 Kate’s Law. Both of these deal with ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIMINALS. They owe Americans the protection they have failed us on. President Trump needs to stand firm and keep his promises not only to us Angel Moms and Dads but to All Americans.

Sabine Durden, legal immigrant and mother of slain 911 operator Dominic Durden, responded to the news on Thursday morning:

Nothing can hurt me deeper than the death of my only child. Nothing but the news about DACA receiving amnesty feels like a horrible nightmare and if true, betrayal of the worst kind. I placed my life on hold since July 10, 2015 when I personally met Trump and believed he would honor his promise of no amnesty and building the wall. I shared my sons’ tragedy at rallies, spoke to senators and congressmen, appeared on tv and radio shows and supported and stood up for the man I believed would be the best for our country. For him to keep his promises so no other family would ever have to feel this pain.

Betrayal is never pleasant. It’s especially unpleasant to watch these parents USED, forgotten, and discarded

"How would you feel today if on your TV you saw a picture of Trump signing into law a “clean bill” of Obama’s unconstitutional executive order, with Luis Gutierrez, Nancy and Chuckie grinning behind him."

If President Trump grants amnesty to illegal aliens - any of them - I will feel betrayed and pissed to the core.

No, not summarily thrown out. Just denied work permits - like every child of illegal immigrants from the beginning of the country

Stop lying to yourself and us. Trump hasn’t ended DACA. He tweeted today that it will stay in place. The dreamers will stay, he said. Please stop trying to deny what Trump has very openly said

You crack me up! Never failing to vomit your hatred of Trump all over threads. But wait, weren’t you trying to convince us a month ago that you really really do support him? I gain great enjoyment at reading your hate filled hysteria, keep up the good work.

If they’re not deported, they must somehow be taxed.

"No family members covered under this law unless it’s a minor."

Chain immigration.

That’s not what he tweeted

Quit trying to undermine the President

The ball is in Congress’ a court

Until he starts deporting these illegal aliens and their illegal families he is giving them defacto amnesty and spitting in the eyes of these people. Actions, not words.

“Giving amnesty to 800K DACA people is worth killing the “Trump is Hitler” stuff and gaining greater gains on the immigration fight.”

No, it’s not.

Trump would have a better chance selling this crap if he had stated that he won’t even consider a compromise on DACA until ever foot of the wall is completed. Voters are not going to believe another promise of a post-amnesty improvement on security. And as others have said, amnesty for 800,000 will encourage another 8 million to jump the border as soon as possible. It’s a never ending cycle. Trump promised to end it. He lied.

Yep - Breitbart seems to be going all-in to hurt Trump. makes one wonder about the real reason Bannon left....he has made a few "Captain Obvious" comments on Twitter but sure hasn't become a warrior for Trump.

Too bad we have so many FReepers who have such narrow vision and inability to think that all they can do is chant: Out with them all....out with them all" - seems like a Left Wing "protest/rally" with folks so dumb they have to be fed a few simple lines.

Apparently deporting the criminals first is not acceptable to you. They are deporting and turning away

The reason we conservatives get rolled all the time is because of all or nothing thinking. The Left takes little bites to get to their goals. We on the other hand throw temper tantrums

Look, criminal aliens will get deported. I have no real concern over that. What I do have concern over is the 30-60 million other illegal aliens, the vast majority that are not “criminals” in the same sense as violent offenders convicted of felonies. I fear that these others will get a pass, so lets start with them instead while the focus is on illegal aliens. Maximize deportations while we can.

Not fast enough. A few dozen or hundreds each day is nothing when they need to be deporting 10-25K each day to solve the problem.

Folding needs to stop. We need to speak up. And we need to get rid of our elected folders like Ryan, McConnell, and others.
