Maine Democrat Senate Candidate Arrested At Border Facility

This guy went to the border and caused a stir outside a facility. The Border Patrol people told him to leave. He didn't so they arrested him.

Ringelstein told the border agents that he believes, without going into the facility, that the children are being deprived of water, books, blankets, and other essential items.

---

Yes, folks, they really believe the kids are being starved like Jews in concentration camps.

“You are literally imprisoning children here. So let’s think about the equivalency of that,” Ringelstein said.

“Are we really talking about children? Are we actually calling them prisoners now? Is that under your enforcement that they’re called prisoners?” Ringelstein asked.

Border patrol agent replies:

“We do have people that are under arrest,” she replied. A man sitting next to Ringelstein then asked what they were under arrest for, to which the border patrol agent replied, “For illegally entering the country. […] They’ve broken the law. This is a country of laws is it not?” she said.

Ringelstein said he didn’t want to talk about it, and asked what that had to do with anything.

---

Yeah, he doesn't want to talk about the lawlessness at the border, just "muh children in cages."

But it ended nicely:

---

Ringelstein refered to the centers as “Trump’s interment camps” as he is eventually handcuffed by police officers.
