Would you like to see how the left-wing media spins stories to make Republicans look like the bad guys? You need look no farther than the spin Roll Call put on a story about Vice President Mike Pence replying to liberal demands that the Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement be abolished.
For several weeks, now, a growing list of left-wing Democrats have lighted upon a new campaign issue and have begun braying to “abolish ICE.” This week the Trump administration has finally begun to push back against the outrageous demand. President Trump mentioned the left’s push to eliminate one of our chief immigration enforcement agencies at a rally in Montana. But VP Pence also spoke about it from Washington on Friday.
Pretending to report on Pence’s comments, the DC-based newspaper Roll Call jumped to the story with a Friday piece entitled, “Pence to Democrats: Stop ‘Spurious Attacks on ICE.”
The very first paragraph of this laughable excuse for news is a master class in left-wing spin all aimed at making Pence look like the bad guy.
Here it is:

‘Abolish ICE’ Story in ‘Roll Call’ A Perfect Example of Liberal Bias in the Media”
On Thursday another story about detained immigrant minors broke, this time about a group alleging that they were abused while being held. But the way the story was reported was a perfect example of how the media lies about this immigration debate because while the leftist media has blamed Trump for it, they neglected to mention the incident happened during the Obama years.
Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol suggested Feb. 7 that the federal government should use immigration from Mexico to replace the American white working class.
The left and their minions in the media are losing their collective mind over President Donald J. Trump’s temporary halt to immigration from a list of terror-sponsoring nations and it appears that they are trying to bully him into withdrawing his order. Thus far they are not winning… and that’s a good thing, too.
This year at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), I was fortunate enough to get some time to interview one of the most redoubtable conservative activists in the nation, 
Another one of Obama’s “DREAMERS” has been nabbed after a state-wide manhunt. This week the Missouri State Patrol arrested an illegal migrant who was suspected of going on a murder spree after being “accidentally” released by federal immigration officials.
It is a well worn adage that America is “made up of immigrants.” But the “making” occurred in an era when people moved to the United States in order to become Americans. Democrats, though, have taken that original intent and upended it to create a means to destroy the country instead of growing it. And there is no better example of this than the words of a Mexican immigrant who was asked to remark on the candidacy of Marco Rubio.
As President Obama continues his push to wildly expand his plans to bring in hundreds of thousands of Syrian “refugees” into the U.S. despite what happened in Paris only a week ago, he is attacking anyone who opposes his dangerous policy. In particular he said that requiring a “religious test” for refugees is “un-American.” Yet, U.S. law does have a religious test in its refugee laws and in one case that test was put in place by a Democrat.
Journalist Jose Antonio Vargas, arguably the most famous illegal alien in the media, has repeatedly argued that he and other illegals are productive members of society and pay their “fair share” of taxes. But this claim just took a hit after news leaked that a federal tax lien of over $41K was levied against his property in California due to a failure to pay taxes.
One of the key aspects of the new immigration policy that Donald Trump proposed this weekend was to end birthright citizenship, the one rule that has served to create the “anchor baby” phenomenon drawing pregnant mothers to the U.S. from every corner of the world. This would be the right move for any president to make and it would be in keeping with the original intent of the Constitution and its requisite amendments.
Americans rally against “birth tourism.”
Let’s face it, Donald Trump has tapped into a very serious concern that most Americans have and that is illegal immigration. But the fact that he’s become a rising star in this GOP primary race at this time isn’t because he’s so great. It’s because the GOP is so damn bad on the issue. For Trump’s current success, the whole thing is Jeb Bush, John Boehner, and Mitch McConnell’s fault.
Obama has done his best to fill up our nation with criminal illegals, certainly. But he has also been doing his best to make sure those illegals are also criminals of the more conventional–and dangerous–kind. Obama has been protecting rapists, thieves, drunk drivers and murderers with his amnesty plans. And now, another one of his murderous illegals has killed more Americans.
As Islamists cut off people’s heads while they are still alive, as they burn people alive, as they murder women, gays, people of “errant” religious beliefs, and commit every manner of atrocity, the Commie Pope in Rome is finally speaking up to condemn the “inhuman conditions” perpetrated by…. the United States of America.
Obama met with a group of illegal immigrants in the White House today and said that they “belong here” and that they are “just like” the rest of America’s citizens.
On Wednesday Obama’s Attorney General Nominee Loretta Lynch said that all illegals should be allowed to work in the USA despite the fact that they are breaking our immigration laws and are essentially criminals in this country.
This is why I despise government. Every decision made in DC adds thousands of new government placemen at a cost of millions in salary and an ever expanding government. That is what happened when John Boehner did not immediately put a stop to Obama’s amnesty plans in that recently concluded budget negotiations.
