THREAD: I've said the only way to hold racism to account is to call it out.
I’m calling out @CBPMarkMorgan.
After seeing this tweet identifying migrants as an “invasion,” I reached out to him, asking that he recognize the connotations of the word “invasion” and delete it.https://twitter.com/CBPMarkMorgan/status/1321485127889936384 …
Morgan refused saying we can't “cancel” the word "invasion" b/c of sensitivities around its use. On August 3, 2019 a domestic terrorist confessed that he drove over 600 miles to massacre Mexicans and immigrants who were part of an “invasion.” The bloodshed was fueled by racism.
.@realDonaldTrump's racism & xenophobia put a target on our back, fueling the violence inflicted on us that day. And his embrace of white nationalism has fueled the increase of hate crimes across our country.
Morgan is using his govt-funded bully pulpit to mirror Trump's words.
And even if we disregard the racially charged nature of the tweet & the use of the word “invasion,” it’s clear that Trump's taxpayer-funded DHS crew (@DHS_Wolf, @HomelandKen and now @CBPMarkMorgan) are using their govt positions to send a message 6 days away from the election.
The unsubtle campaign message in Morgan's tweet: don't change leaders because they might change strategies. The fact is the cruelty, waste & incompetence of this administration has never been a solution. It's a stain on America's reputation and a dark moment in U.S. history.
But I guess it should be no surprise that they use their bureaucratic twitter accounts to foment fear. They probably understand how hard it will be to get the Trump stink off their name and reputation once we're rid of him. May they be linked to him forever. - fin -
Thank you.
With all due respect Congresswoman, border security and immigration enforcement are NOT racist. Semantics are irrelevant when a radical open borders agenda destabilizes our communities with drugs and crime. Brave CBP agents risk their lives to give Americans security we deserve.
Criminals invade our cities, flooding our streets and addicting our children to opioids and other drugs. Human traffickers have capitalized on our flawed immigration policies and traffic children like commodities. There is nothing *racist* about these facts.
nevermind that our government has been 'invaded' by a bunch of men that were appointed to their positions illegally.
