Faux "News" moral slagheap Brian Kilmeade says this about immigrant children:




And he went on to say, "...and now people are saying that they're more important than people in our country who are paying taxes and who have needs as well." https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2018/06/22/fox-news-hosts-not-our-kids-statement-and-the-limits-of-compassion/?utm_term=.bdbb164b24d8

There's a special place in Hell for this guy. Isn't Kilmeade an Irish name? Weren't his ancestors also "people from another country" who were treated like crap when they came here?

We Dems think all children are precious and deserving of protection.
