Rep. Rashida Tlaib Melts Down, Starts Screaming that Trump Benefited ‘Financially and Personally by Having a Broken Immigration System’

EXCERPT:

TLAIB: “The president of the United States benefited financially and personally by having a broken immigration system that keeps our immigrant neighbors in a broken system that doesn‘t allow them to come out of the shadows. Why? Because that‘s cheap labor! Let‘s be honest. They are arresting dishwashers, people at Home Depot that work! And their donors benefit. You know it. The restaurant industry benefits. They know exactly what they're doing. If they even wanted to fix this immigration system, they would go to the people that employ them. And we know it. Now detention centers — guess who is going to benefit from private detention centers and holding our immigrant neighbors? Their donors. So shame on us in bringing these governors here when we know exactly what is happening here. This is all for profit, all for cruelty, and fear and division. Fix our economic system in our country! People are starving! People can‘t afford basic needs! And you are ripping our loved ones away from us because you don‘t have the courage to fix our broken immigration system. It‘s been inhumane for decades. Shame on us, both Democrats and Republicans, for not doing what is right in this chamber and doing what is right for the American people and making sure we are not separating families.”
