The best way to deflect attention away from a horrible Biden administration is to make up a narrative.
The left is doing just that with photos of border patrol agents and Haitian migrants.
The left says the border patrol agents on horses are whipping Haitian migrants. Except…I don’t see whips. I see reins.
Thanks a lot, El Paso Times. You would think you guys would know the difference between a whip and reins:
A mounted U.S. Border Patrol agent shouted commands in a tense encounter with Haitian migrants wading through the Rio Grande near Del Rio, Texas.As the Haitians tried to climb onto the U.S. side of the river Sunday afternoon, the agent shouted: “Let’s go! Get out now! Back to Mexico!”The agent swung his whip menacingly, charging his horse toward the men in the river who were trying to return to an encampment under the international bridge in Del Rio after buying food and water in Ciudad Acuña, Mexico.One migrant fell as he tried to dodge, others shielded their heads with their hands.
Before I show you the pictures and video I want you to read these two tweets. It explains what is happening.
Sawyer Hackett, the man in charge of Julián Castro’s PAC, tweeted out these horrible photos! I don’t see Twitter labeling them as misinformation.
HACKett (get it? hahaha!) got some help from the loyal leftists in the media.
A border patrol source told Townhall’s, Julio Rosas:
Agents use their reins for a lot of reasons. Primarily it’s used to steer the horse, but agents will also spin them sometimes to deter people from getting too close to the horse. If they get too close, the horse can step on them, breaking bones or causing other injuries. Agents also need to maintain control of their reins so they don’t lose control of the horse, which can cause injuries to immigrants, the agents, and the horses.We are not aware of anyone being struck with the reins.
