Gestapo tactics.

Or otherwise known as, The Enemy of The People

This image was a photoshoot. Please CNN stop using it. This is more of the reason Trump tried blocking ur unnecessary AT&T merger. Fake news at its best

Staged picture. CNN knows this. “Journalism”. Democrats are ensuring Trump’s re-election

What is this photo? I thought it was quiet at the border -no crisis, no caravans, no activity...

how many times is this pic going to be used

💔😞

I like the FBI. They Protect God’s Kingdom. My dignity was crushed some 16 years ago and they rebuilt it.

You always crop this photo to suit your narrative.

The government has every right to track people who are involved with an invasion on the United States

Staged photo democrats are lunatics

2 of my Spanish speaking clients went to the border to witness to the invaders but they never came back. I worry maybe they got mixed up with the illegals. Veronica brought me hope for legal migration but I fear she is lost forever

...their own countries and cleaning up house Starting with their bullshit religious rights and insessant babymaking. They “hate the white man” but follow his religion, buy his shit in order to feel like somebody,and then point the oppressed finger right back. Just stahp. ...

The buck stops at Trump's desk!

Come here LEGALLY and there won't be a problem. Hmmmm what a concept.

Diversionary tactics

So we’re supposed to take in Everyone with a battered country? Where exactly is all this money, space, and tesources going to come from? And they destroy their Own countries and will Always be more willing to follow White people Anywhere they go rather than standing up to ...

I remember this picture, staged and posed it was wonderful.

Like all the liberal activists encouraging all these people to join the caravans and helping them along the way. When so many are being hurt by this journey.. and most turned away because they don't qualify. You need to think of them not your agenda of new voters. It's disgusting

Cnn is so fake lol. Reusing this staged photo again. Yet you mutts buy into it. The downfall of a great nation....the DEMONcrat party and the cnn propaganda pushing machine

Still using that discredited photo? Sheesh, you people never quit.

Funny that cnn is using a staged picture

Crisis.

Investigating the CBP is a knee-jerk response by Left-wing Filthy Wealthy Sorts who are bank-rolling the Illegal Immigration Invasion of the USA...!!!!

Resist FAKE NEWS

Is anyone surprised by this? Just another example of Trumps racist influence!

More anti American propaganda

Why did CBP shoot tear gas on to the Mexican side and why wasn't Mexico outraged. Can you imagine if Mexico did that on to the USA side?

fakenews

This is not just a border issue; it’s a life issue. People all across our country are losing their jobs. I cannot understand why anyone would want to come to this land of freedom. Our President has no understanding about free lands.

Lets hope the Government tracked activists and Journalists who assisted the illegal aliens in breaking the law by giving info to assist in crossing the border.

😴

The United States can only take so many people in before our resources are depleted.

Still using this photo? Brilliant...

Half of whose employees are Hispanic

Where were these people when Obama was wire tapping journalists and thir families?

Why target journalist trump complex I see

Fuck that.

The photos from this series were sooooo effing staged. The family is running panicked but everyone in the background is just standing around. fakenews

MeghanMcCain Your thoughts?

Don’t start none. Ain’t gonna be none. If I tried to go to Canada or Mexico without docs, they would kick my ass out faster than you can say CNN is fake news.

Congress, DHS watchdog asking if U.S. border agents targeted reportersCongress and DHS are investigating if U.S. border agents targeted journalists, according to a statement from Customs and Border Protection and a letter to CBP from the chair of House Homeland Security Cmte. I imagine all those illegally aiding and abetting an invasion of foreign nationals are open to questioning and possible prosecution. Can’t wait for the stupid takes from people not reading the article, toward the bottom I think you are using the term 'journalists' rather loosely.
