Democrat Nancy Pelosi joins the mainstream media in defending MS-13 gang from Trump

By now, everyone has heard that Donald Trump, in answering a question about MS-13 from Fresno, CA police, called MS-13 gang members “animals”. The Democrats and their allies in the mainstream media disagreed with characterizing MS-13 gangsters as animals. Let’s see a few reactions from the Democrats and their allies in the mainstream media, then we’ll see what MS-13 does.

First, the facts, from the non-partisan Real Clear Politics:

House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi responded to President Trump calling violent MS-13 gang members “animals,” at her weekly press briefing Thursday morning. Pelosi says Trump’s comments as reported are a new low, and make her wonder if the president believes “we are all God’s children” or not.

“When the president of the United States says about undocumented immigrants, ‘these are not people, these are animals,’ you have to wonder, does he not believe in the spark of divinity? In the dignity and worth of every person? ‘These are not people, these are animals,’ from the president of the United States.”

“Every day you think you’ve seen it all, along comes another manifestation of why their policies are so inhumane,” she said.

“Calling people animals is not a good thing,” she said, before ending the news conference and walking out.

Even radically leftist CNN makes it clear that Trump was talking about MS-13:

CNN agrees: Trump was calling MS-13 "animals"
CNN agrees: Trump was calling MS-13 “animals”

But that makes no difference to Nancy Pelosi. She wants to open the borders to let them in, because they have a “divine spark”. Pro-amnesty groups joined Pelosi in denouncing Trump’s condemnation of MS-13. Liberal journalists from National Affairs and Huffington Post and Business Insider and CNBC and MSNBC and Think Progress and the New York Times and NBC News (Andrea Mitchell) the Washington Post (Jennifer Rubin) and CBS News defended MS-13. (See this Daily Wire article for all the tweets from those sources)

Here’s MSNBC anchor Lawrence O’Donnell:

Trump is Hitler, says the mainstream news media

Those tweets are still up! This is not a misunderstanding – they know Trump was talking about MS-13.

So what does MS-13 do, exactly?

Beating little girls with baseball bats: (ABC News)

The source explained Ayala-Rivera, a high-ranking local MS-13 leader who goes by the nickname “Noctorno,” pimps out a number of underage girls from a number of states. On Aug. 1, 2017, the source said Pena-Rodriguez, Romero-Rivera, Ayala-Rivera, plus two other men, used a solid bat to beat the girl behind the single-family home along Valley View Avenue. The men reportedly took turns whacking the 15-year-old girl’s flailing body — 28 swings in total. Her injuries included an “indented” buttocks, discolored arms and legs, and visible bleeding from the neck down.

A second unnamed source would later tell cops that Ayala-Rivera (‘Noctorno’) ordered the backyard clubbing because he felt the victim was “not doing a good job as an MS-13 prostitute.” The same source revealed Ayala-Rivera (‘Noctorno’) raked in a lot of money by trafficking teenage girls to men of all ages.

[…]According to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Romero-Rivera is in the United States illegally.

Gang-raping little girls: (Washington Post)

The petite young woman was a 16-year-old Laurel High School student three years ago when she decided to skip classes one day to join two other girls at a party at a Hyattsville apartment.

At the party, she said, Oscar Ramos “Casper” Velasquez took her into a bedroom, where he kissed her and told her that if she didn’t have sex with him, as many as 15 other teenagers and young men at the gathering would have sex with her.

When she resisted, two more young men entered the room, the woman told jurors yesterday in federal court. One man threw her on the bed and choked her, the other held down her arms and “Oscar pulled out a gun,” she testified.

“He put it to my head, and he said if I didn’t shut up, he was going to kill me,” the woman told jurors.

Eight men raped her, the 19-year-old woman said. Two assaulted her simultaneously. Outside the room, she said, she heard one man say, “Five minutes each.”

Murdering little girls: (ABC News)

An MS-13 gang member has been convicted in the 2001 murder of a 13-year-old Whittier girl.

On June 28, 2001, the naked body of Jacqueline Piazza was found in Elysian Park. She had been shot twice in the head, a statement from the district attorney’s office said.

Her murder remained unsolved for nearly a decade, until the Los Angeles Police Department uncovered new information and presented it to the district attorney’s office, the statement said. Four men were charged in the crime in 2012.

Prosecutors said the men kidnapped the victim the night before she was found and drove her to a remote area of the park, where they allegedly sexually assaulted and killed her.

On Thursday, a jury found Jorge Palacios, 39, guilty of one count of first-degree murder and one count of kidnapping to commit rape.

Sex-trafficking little girls: (Washington Post)

The 12-year-old runaway was desperate — she was out of money and had no place to stay. So she turned to the one man her friends said could help: a top MS-13 gang member.

The day after they met at a party, the man drove the girl home, let her take a shower and gave her some fresh clothes. Then he told her, “We’re going to work.”

At first, the girl didn’t understand what the man meant. But everything became horribly clear after they pulled into a pharmacy parking lot and she watched another gang member return to the car with a box of condoms. The next stop was her first customer.

For three months, the girl was prostituted almost daily in dingy apartments, motels and even at an auto repair shop.

[…]The 12-year-old was one of dozens of prostitutes, many juveniles, being sold for sex in the Washington area by members of Mara Salvatrucha, also known as MS-13, the region’s largest and most dangerous street gang.

Lots more here.

Democrats and their mainstream media allies support sanctuary cities for MS-13. Anyone who disagrees is “Hitler”.

Watch Nancy Pelosi defend MS-13 in her own words:

Leftists are generous with other people’s money and other people’s lives. It’s not the rich Democrat elites and their rich allies in the mainstream media who suffer from MS-13. Nancy Pelosi has a net worth of nearly $30 million. The Democrat Party elites and the mainstream media talking heads live in gated communities, and have security systems and armed guards. They’re safe from MS-13. They little girls who run away from home don’t matter to them.

  1. Also amazing how they suddenly believe on God and the spark of divinity as the left attacks enemies and tries to belittle opponents.

    But they may not believe Christians have a spark of divinity since nor theie legal citizens, including the case fo the victimized girls being prostituted

  2. These buffoons act as if there is no such things as technology by which the sincerely curious can find out the context of Trump’s words. They count on their sycophants not making the slightest effort to test them for honesty.

  3. Absolutely sickening. Beating up and pimping underage girls. I feel bad for all of them, especially that 15 year old who was beaten near to death! Those who do such things are worse than animals, “animals” is being charitable to describe them! I only hope those girls got some help once their stories were discovered. The liberals who want to protect those gang members due to immigration status or ethnicity are nuts! What if it were their daughters? Shows the extreme hypocrisy! They’re only angry because Trump had an opinion! I certainly don’t want those criminals in my country! The truth hurts, so the liberals are whining!

    Another point, while in no way excusing the horrific atrocities that gang inflicted on many young girls, it also shows the importance of raising girls who value themselves and don’t run away seeking shady people and going into the criminal underworld. Rebellious girls who ran away have gotten themselves into these types of messes as gang members victimize vulnerable young people. The radical feminist movement makes women feel like they’e empowered by rebellion from the norms and virtues a young lady ought to posses, so more and more are rebelling from the home and family in exchange for a life of crime and promiscuity. When they realize it isn’t as glamorous as it seemed, the gangs trap them and the girls mentioned payed the price for trying to get out. All these girls who want to be strippers or go into sex work don’t realize how shady the business is… I think forewarned is forearmed. My parents told me all about such dangers, so I was knowledgeable enough to stay far away from such influences. The girls never deserved such brutality, but some, like the runaway walked right into their trap.

    1. At least half of our elected representatives – probably closer to 80% – want to do nothing about our border. I would guess close to 80% of our bureaucracy wants to do nothing about it either. Nor do our business leaders or small business owners. We are simply not the constituency our government represents. I leave as an exercise to the reader what this means for the future of the American nation-state experiment . I believe it’s in its death throes. I recommend we adopt the same sort of localism and fraternal kinship Americans had in the late 18th century. Locally, you may be able to accomplish much working together. The Republic appears to be dead.

      Keep in mind many of these MS-13 stories come out of Maryland and Northern Virginia. WHen you think about it, MS-13 has the manpower in theater to take over the nation’s capital.

        1. Fabius Maximus talked about that book in a post yesterday. I’ve been reading JihadWatch since the mid-Aughts so I’m familiar with the arguments of Bruce Bawer, Andrew Bostom, Mark Steyn, and Robert Spencer. Does this book add anything new?

          1. It focuses on low-skilled immigration across all European countries, and especially on the politicians who pushed it and their motives. And why there was no political resistance, despite the majority of voters being opposed.

  4. The left all over is equally crazy. The liberal government in Canada took out a bill that said if someone is a convicted terrorist and every hold dual citizenship they will have the Canadian citizenship stripped from them and returned to the other country.

    But the liberals feel it is better as they are to bring home Canadian Isis members and try to reintegrate them into society. No idea for anyone how it will be done but they find it wrong to take a way citizenship just because they hate the country and try to destroy it.

    It is the same kind of illogical thinking as in this case of protecting illegals. There are reasons why anyone should have rights to a nation lost especially of they are from another country.

    We can’t rehome the world and sustain them all at our expense
