‘I’m so worried about how many pedophiles are now signing up to go and work in these places’

NPR Host: I’m Worried About Pedophiles Getting Jobs at Migrant Shelters (The Washington Free Beacon)

An NPR host fretted on MSNBC Tuesday that pedophiles would try to get jobs at the migrant shelters housing illegal immigrant children at the southern border.

The controversy over the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" border policy has dominated the news over the past week, with fierce criticism pouring in over the practice of separating children from their parents when they enter the country illegally. President Donald Trump has said he hates the practice and called on Democrats to vote with Republicans to change the immigration laws, while they have accused him of using the children separation issue as a bargaining chip.

Asked by MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle why the public had only been given images of young boys in the shelters and not girls or toddlers, "Latino USA" anchor Maria Hinojosa said it was part of the Trump administration's "narrative" that illegal immigrants are dangerous criminals.
