Im here to support you, the First Lady said at the televised event speaking to the agents of the federal Customs and Border Patrol, and to give my help whatever I can, for, behalf of children and the families.
I know how dangerous and difficult your daily jobs are so I really appreciate all you do on behalf of the country, the First Lady told the Customs and Border Patrol agents.
There was no discussion of the thousands of children the Trump administration has forcibly separated from their parents and families.

Perhaps she can turn it into a calendar (proceeds going to Trump's re-election) if she brought a change of outfits?

(15,273 posts)by CPB agents. They are standing on the line on the bridge of the ports of entry asylum seekers are told to use and blocking them from getting even a toe on US soil, where they would automatically have rights. The asylum seekers are then forced to enter illegally and when they turn themselves into border guards, they are arrested and prosecuted for illegal entry.
That is some Catch-22!
