The White House is reacting to disturbing images that surfaced on Sunday of Border Patrol agents appearing to whip Haitian migrants desperately trying to cross the Rio Grande river into the United States. 'I don't know what the circumstances would be, it's obviously horrific,' Press Secretary Jen Psaki said of relevant footage from the border on Monday.Psaki was asked about the images at her daily White House briefing.'I've seen some of the footage, I don't have the full context, I can't imagine what context would make that appropriate but I don't have additional details,' she said. 'I don't think anyone seeing that footage would think it was acceptable or appropriate.'

Not as bad as Nancy's thug shooting and killing an American woman for the "crime" of trespassing in "The People's House". Sorry, this is exactly what has been needed. Keep it up Texas.

Had you not been trying to cross into America illegally, you could not have been whipped. Go home.

I watched the 'devastating' video. It was nothing more than a couple of lashes at best from the reins. Big damn deal. These invaders should be shot on sight as far as I am concerned.

"Whipping...with what appears to be ropes or Lariats.." DIPCHITS!!! Those are just their frikkin reins...the tails of reins, and if you tried to whip anything hard with them your horse would freak out, they react/turn to the slightest rein pressure on their neck, nobody yanks or saws on a bit to turn a finished horse. You can turn horses or cattle you are herding by swinging them, just the sight and slight whistle of them through the air makes whatever you are herding shy away. People too.

99.9% of People world wide seeing video of tens of thousands of people illegally invading across another country's borders say.."'I've seen some of the footage, I don't have the full context, I can't imagine what context would make that appropriate but I don't have additional details,' she said. 'I don't think anyone seeing that footage would think it was acceptable or appropriate.' to illegally swarm across another country's border. ONLY the US Whitehouse doesn't seem to think it is "unacceptable orinappropriate" but instead let it continue for a week, with thousands per day coming across that could have been stopped with ONE squad of CBP agents at any time.

They show more angst and distress over this picture than they ever have over what these illegal aliens are doing to American citizens. Remember Kathryn ("Kate") Steinle anyone? She was shot and killed by an illegal alien while walking with her father and a friend along Pier 14 in the Embarcadero district of San Francisco in 2015. Any horrific reaction to that Miss Psaki?

This is an invasion of illegal aliens meant to do damage and destruction to our republic. They should be given one warning shot then shoot to kill. So, no, I don't think it's appropriate either, since whipping isn't going to stop anyone. Only bullets can do that!!!

These fools have never ridden with Western tack. It’s common to whip the tail end of the reins in the air to get cattle to move. As overworked and under-appreciated as the BP agents are, I’m surprised he didn’t just ride through the immigrants. Sheesh, we’re being invaded and all our clown administration worries about is being seen as “caring”.

This is the Southern border of the United States of America. The Border Patrol has never had enough agents - EVER. Washington D.C. can’t hire enough desk jockeys, administrative assistants and all manner of lawyers to work on Capitol Hill. So money has never been the issue. What Washington values, they hire plenty of and pay them well. For this country to not have a fully-armed battalion of Border Patrol agents in full command of that southern border is beyond stupid. We have been utter fools to let feckless politically correct politicians do otherwise.

Ok, so what do you want them to do. I don't think hugging them as they commit a crime is a good idea. These people are trying to enter this country illegally, it's a crime. Unicorns and flowers don't work. Force does. It's the same as crowd control. The libs want us to hug and kiss everyone that wants to enter illegally.

A stunning selection of photographs captured last night's Harvest Moon in all its glory, as the Earth's natural satellite lit up skies around the world. This is the closest full moon to the autumnal equinox - the moment the sun appears to cross over the celestial equator - on September 22.In the UK, the full moon rose at 19:23 BST and set at 06:52 BST early this morning, but the spectacle will appear full and bright for the next two nights.On average, the moon rises 50 minutes later than sunset each day, but when it is an equinox moon, it can rise as little as 25 minutes after sunset.

The tens of thousands of Afghan refugees being imported into the United States by the Biden Administration are carrying numerous dangerous diseases in addition to the Chinese coronavirus, including malaria, measles, and tuberculosis, as reported by Breitbart. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) admitted to the influx of diseases through the Afghan arrivals in a statement on Monday, declaring that all of the refugees will be required to take the measles vaccine; however, there are still no measures in place to require them to receive a coronavirus vaccine. According to the CDC press release, they had been “notified by public health departments of 16 measles cases among the evacuees.”
