There is something really twisted about the way that many liberals think.
I know that sounds harsh to my liberal friends, just as most of my conservative readers will say, “Well, duh.”
But unlike many of you, who are even more cynical than I am, I still believe that most liberals are good people who trust the Pravda Media so much that they allow them to assign opinions to them about what they should care about, and why.
A great example was the Tren de Aragua controversy during the campaign. Martha Raddatz thought she had a killer argument about why Trump was lying about the gang problem in Aurora: “Only a handful of apartment complexes” were taken over by gang members terrorizing residents.
New meme format just dropped:

Believe it or not, many liberals actually agreed with her. Raddatz, after all, is an “influencer” with them and is taken seriously.
Now that the campaign is over, even The New York Times is admitting that Trump was right–any conservative knew that already because we saw the evidence on tape, but whatever. Now that it doesn’t matter, it is old news to liberals and they will go back to Martha and the Times for their next assigned opinions.
The @nytimes says Trump was right about the migrant gangs in Aurora.

The same thing is happening with the controversial ICE raid at a pot farm in California. It was not, as the Democrats keep saying, an immigration raid, but rather the service of a criminal search warrant searching for victims of human trafficking. Those victims were found–8 migrant children working in what amounts to slavery to grow pot for one of Gavin Newsom’s contributors. Seven of those children were unaccompanied minors that the Biden administration just handed over to unrelated adults who put them to work.
Tom Homan: “I see the media saying ‘well it was an ice raid’. No, they were serving criminal search warrants as part of a criminal investigation involving child trafficking and child labor. I think there was a total of 11 children that were found on that farm.” pic.twitter.com/tx6HZ6NEZz

Democrats are OUTRAGED, and despite the fact that the ICE agents were violently attacked and shot at, they are out there defending…the trafficking of children.
Honestly, they have gone there.
@abbydphillip So youre telling us that you are ok, if it was a bunch of black kids working in the field? That is what you are advocating for. I think it is wrong in both sense. But seems a bit racist once you flip the race to you? If so that makes you a racist for sure.

Any normal person would at least stay away from this issue if they couldn’t find it in their hearts to condemn the trafficking of children for the purpose of putting them to work on a pot farm. But no, Democrats are marching onto TV shows to condemn ICE for rescuing children, and doing their “I don’t approve of violence, but…” song and dance about ICE agents getting shot at.
NEW MEDIA SPIN JUST DROPPED
“ICE forcefully raided a California farm and arrested farmers.”
REALITY: It was a WEED farm exploiting child labor, and ICE agents had rocks thrown and a gun fired at them

The Pravda Media is doing its normal spin cycle–they write their headlines to minimize the offenses and maximize outrage at ICE. Since most Americans can see that putting trafficked children to work on a pot farm is not what our immigration system exists for, they might be on ICE’s side.
If I ran a news agency, I’d think (1) this being a raid at a marijuana grow-farm and (2) one of the illegals firing shots at an American officer would be central to the reporting. But that can’t help make conservatives look wrong and the left be The Moral, so CNN gives us this.👁 pic.twitter.com/SjPQ7W4P76

So they spin the events out of recognition.
AFL President @GeneHamiltonUSA on @foxandfriends about the discovery of illegal alien children working at a marijuana farm in California:

Still, I guarantee you that die-hard Blue voters will mirror the outrage they are instructed to feel. They have been told that ICE is bad, that it’s Trump’s fault that law enforcement officers are getting shot at, stoned, doxxed, harassed, and compared to the Gestapo.
Dana Bash asks Padilla if incendiary rhetoric by Democrats is escalating the violent attacks against ICE.
Jose flails, trying to blame Trump admin rhetoric for the attacks (!) then refuses to say Democrats calling ICE agents “gestapo” is a problem.
They’re not going to stop. pic.twitter.com/CBmgZLIJJ2

This reminds me of the Democrats UPPING the rhetorical fire after the Butler assassination attempt a year ago. After less than a week, they were hurling the same incendiary accusations against Trump. And, lo and behold, there was a second assassination attempt.

This illegal alien was apprehended at the CA marijuana facility. Turns out he had been sentenced to 7 yrs for kidnapping & attempted rape, w/ a prior conviction for attempted child molestation.
And this felon was working at the same farm as 10 kids – one being 14 yrs old. pic.twitter.com/Eg34hXSelU

I get why the Democrats and the Pravda Media go down this road–the Democrats have nothing but hate to motivate their voters, and the media sold its soul to the Democrats decades ago. But I can’t understand why there has yet to be a breaking point with liberals who are not down with a French Revolution-style insurrection.
Maybe you were denied entry because you are doing things like doxxing ICE officers to violent rioters? https://t.co/7hJVpaO2gp

Rep. Salud Carbajal was part of a violent mob of protestors attempting to obstruct federal law enforcement as they executed a criminal search warrant at a marijuana facility. He cites “peaceful” protestors, when in fact these rioters were launching rocks at officers, injuring at… https://t.co/yPNkcXOqkC

Is it brainwashing? Intellectual laziness? Misplaced trust in people who are gaslighting them every second of the day?
I understand disliking Trump. I understand opposing his policies. I understand people wanting vague, undefined “nice” compassionate policies. I can imagine a ton of reasons for opposing Republicans.
But honestly, if you are siding with human traffickers using children as slaves because you want to be nice, it’s time to reconsider your life choices.
Editor’s Note: Thanks to President Trump, illegal immigration into our great country has virtually stopped. Despite the radical left’s lies, new legislation wasn’t needed to secure our border, just a new president.
