quote:

Illinois Rep. Luis Gutierrez blasted Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen as "a liar" and appeared to compare President Trump with King Herod, who wanted Jesus killed after his birth.


quote:

He said it is ironic that Republicans would hold the hearing during the Christmas season, which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ.

Gutierrez, a Chicago Democrat, said that it is "repugnant and astonishing" that during the holiday season, migrant family separation would be a topic of importance to the GOP.

Gutierrez said that, at the time of Jesus Christ's birth, King Herod became outraged and ordered all children under two to be murdered.

"Thank God there wasn't a wall that stopped [Jesus, Mary and Joseph] from seeking refuge in Egypt. Thank God that wall wasn't there," he stormed.

"And, thank God [the Trump] administration [wasn't there] or He too would have perished on the 28th -- on the Day of Innocence when Herod ordered the murder[s]."


I love when Christian hating leftists try to throw the Bible at the right.

Gutierrez is a piece of shite

While Nielsen gave her response, Gutierrez scowled at her, appeared to text on his phone and then left the hearing room while Nielsen was still talking.

There are lot of things they destroy, people, cities, communities, educations systems but

They can't control this and it FRIGHTENS THEM

The Right has found a peaceful and persistent method to destroy them

Satan knows the Bible too.

Did he read the part about building the wall of Jerusalem and then the rebuild of the same. God appointed duties for his people to build the wall.

Jesus was a Jew. Jewish people would never build a wall to protect themselves. Never

Did I miss the part where they were refugees? Could have sworn they were going back home for census purposes.

I’m so tired of the over use of the word “migrant”.

Liberalism is a disease.

Liberals are now speaking for Jesus and the Military Industrial Complex.


Trump has broken them

This comes from the assumption that all of the political right are fundamentalists, so of course if they attack with the bible it'll be effective. And it's silly because the right, more than the left when it comes to voting, is diverse in beliefs.

When I hear a leftist using the bible to defend a position, or attack an opponent's position, my instinct is to respond with "great, now do abortion!"
BTW Herod might not have needed to have babies executed had leftist policies been in place during his time. Single pregnant mother.

Democrats only care about God when they think it can help them achieve their goals.

Jesus’s path was set regardless. He was always going to die on the day and way he died.

And they were travelling within the Roman Empire. Why would there be walls to divide the Empire, the Romans build walls to keep the trash out and they failed in the end because their barriers failed.

I believe they erected Hadrian’s Wall and Antonine’s Wall for this very reason.

I'm sorry, but the fact that large swaths of people in this country are stupid enough to fall for this rhetoric is a sign that this country's political future is in trouble.

By this logic, no country is allowed to control or regulate the people entering it, wall or no wall. Also, we allow asylum seekers. I'm preaching to the choir here but the shamelessness of leftist rhetoric is truly disgusting.
