----------------------------------------------------------
The Associated Press (AP) obtained an email from Eligio "Lee" Pena, an assistant patrol agent, that ordered more than 3,000 agents to not speak to reporters about the "humanitarian crisis." The email allegedly said that reporters are likely to press for details and "may try to disguise themselves" in the process."

Pena's email went on to warn agents that they could be disciplined or even charged with a crime if they speak to media, according to the AP.

Since the news of the spike in foreign minors, Border Patrol contacts--many of whom used to speak on the record regularly--have not returned numerous phone calls or emails from Breitbart Texas.

The silence comes in the face of the apprehension of 47,000 foreign children traveling alone to the U.S. since October.
 
Remember when Barney Frank shouted at the Whistleblowers to keep Bush from heading off the housing bubble burst?*

:eek:

Democrats hate whistleblowers unless they hurt Republicans politically...






* and then they had the temerity to blame his General Republican Philosophy?

Whistleblower implies someone did something illegal. What illegal thing did Bush & Obama do?
 
Hey miles?
You work in human resources, right? That's what your profile claims, anyway....

Let me give you an HR hypothetical question.

Let's say your company was involved in some sort of scandal that may or may not be true.

What would happen to an employee of your company if they gave an interview to the press, representing their own views as the corporate position, without your company's permission?

Hmmmmm?

You present this snippet as though it is some of proof of Obama's latest failing. It isn't. Literally every law enforcement agency has a prohibition on unauthorized personnel speaking to the press. Somewhere in the reams of paperwork that Border Patrol agents sign when accepting their position you will find a policy stating this. In light of the state of journalism in this country today it is not just a good idea, it is a necessity.

Miles has a pathological hatred of all things related to President Obama.
 
It's not like Obama is prohibiting the press from taking pictures of coffins.

The RWCJ still has the 'you're either with us or against us' mentality that failed so miserably.

This was a good question.

Too pussy to answer, Miles? We know you saw it. :D

Where in their contract was the babysitting clause?

Submit your application for employment. Assuming your acceptance you will then have access to the hundreds of pages of Policy and Procedures that you will be agreeing to when you accept the position.
 
I guarantee I have changed more diapers then you, sonny.

What's that got to do with anything? The fact that you would even joke about not taking care of these kids reveals you for the monster you are and no amount of diapers changed would have any effect on that whatsoever.
 
Honestly unless it was as a volunteer at whatever we call modern day orphanages it doesn't count.

I salute you for at least trying to learn a trade. That alone puts you head and shoulders above most of your wingnut brethren here, who are chronically unemployed and unemployable.

Fuck you...send a check to the Somalis.

Such language. From one who claims to be civilized to. Tsk tsk. As for the Somalis they are a problem for another day. Mexico is our neighbor getting them and the rest of South America unfucked has to take priority over unfucking Africa and the Middle East not that they aren't on the list but one thing at a time.
