I Don't Really Care, Margaret

I've said this once, and I'll say it again. I'm out of empathy for illegal immigrants, and that includes the ones who came here illegally and aren't trying to start any trouble. As heartless as that sounds, it's actually born from a concern and care for my own people, Americans. 

Yet, the media continues to do its abject best to make it seem like the policies I'm supporting, and the man I'm supporting to get it done, are cruel and evil. 

It was something I saw coming from a mile away. The legacy media painting the Trump administration as "cruel" was obvious from the word "go." As I wrote, the very first video that came out the moment Trump took power and terminated the CBP One app was one from a WaPo reporter who just happened to be there to capture a woman sobbing into the sky in very dramatic fashion... and with multiple cameras pointed at her.

The avenue of attack has continued with even some celebrities getting involved, like Selena Gomez, who posted and then swiftly deleted a video of herself sobbing into her camera about "her people" being deported and not knowing what to do about it. 

It was an insufferable moment from an insufferable celebrity who proves that celebrity opinions are worth about as much as Monopoly money... actually scratch that. I actually value Monopoly money while I'm playing the game. 

Gomez's opinion is worth even less.

But despite the fact that none of this is actually working to sway the people, the media has nevertheless persisted in attempting to make you think you and your orange bad man are just the worst, and you should feel very, very guilty. 

On Monday, CBS posted a video of a Guatemalan woman crying into her camera about her deportation, saying she needs to get back to the US to work so she can send money to her family and pay off her debt. This debt she accumulated was taken by the smuggler who got her across initially. 

So, to be clear, she wants to come back across the border illegally, to pay off the debt she got for herself when she came across our border illegally. 

Am I supposed to be feeling bad for her? It sounds like a "her" problem, not one that my taxpayer dollars need to take on so she can live her illegally, benefiting from a system I help pay for while sending money out of the country and into hands of smugglers who traffic people. 

CBS News is really knocking it out of the park today.

I can't help but feel myself caring less and less with every attempt at trying to make me feel guilt. As I said before, it really shows you whose side the left is actually on when they seem to have more care for the people harming the country than the country itself. 

If you look at the replies to the post above, you'll see a lot of the responses ask CBS why they didn't post the videos and photos of women crying over their lost loved ones who were taken by illegal immigrants. Where are all the interviews and videos of weeping family members begging for their children to be returned after they were kidnapped? What about all the outrage around the rapes and murders? 

The legacy media doesn't seem to be interested in that. 

In fact, I often find that the legacy media's interests don't even seem to be with the people they're advocating for as, if they're not trying to generate sympathy, they're promoting them as a cheap workforce which is a disgusting way to look at a human being. 

And now I just find myself annoyed. The media so overplayed their hand that I'm getting to a point where the cries of the illegal immigrants who broke no law outside of entering the country illegally are falling on a hardened heart. 

But perhaps that's what's needed at this point. In order to remove a cancerous tumor, you first have to do a lot of cutting. It's bloody and unpleasant, it's going to leave a scar, but at least after you get the cancer out you can start getting your life back in order. 

If these people really want a better life in the U.S., and if the left truly cares about their well-being (I doubt it) then they'll make sure illegals stay the hell out and allow us to get our country back in order. Once we've gotten the illegal immigrant crisis under control, then we can start looking into our own system. 

Until then, I'm just not sure I'm capable of being moved. In fact, with every deportation, I get a little more excited. 

And once again, it's not because I hate those people, it's because I love my own people.
