Formula shortage reveals GOP’s compassion for American babies, anger over nourished immigrant ones

Well...this hits the nail on the head, as indeed, for some, compassion is totally partisan and quite negotiable.


The baby formula shortage has led a number of Republicans to demonstrate their deep and abiding concern for the smallest among us, unless the "smallest" in question are ones Republicans don't want among us.
Texas Rep. Troy Nehls, for example, tenderly tweeted Thursday: "Baby formula should go to Americans before illegals. This should not have to be said."
Also not having to be said, apparently, is that undocumented children in U.S. care, by law, have to be fed. That and the whole "not feeding a baby is kind of wrong" thing, which in Nehls' mind must be morally negotiable.
Florida Rep. Kat Cammack, in a video posted on Facebook, said she is “so angry about this” fact that the government is giving food to infants in its care along the border. (I assume her anger is a form of love for all God’s children.)
“These are your tax dollars going to buy formula” for the immigrant babies, she said, before claiming without evidence that the babies she would like to see starve are also tragic victims of “violence and trafficking,” and calling President Joe Biden the “trafficker in chief.”
I mean, clearly it breaks Cammack’s heart to see these innocent infants harmed in any way, shape or form, and all she wants is for the government to immediately take away their food so they go hungry.
So clearly these Republicans are addressing the baby-formula shortage through the scriptural philosophy of: “All lives are precious, except these little immigrant whiners over here. They can pound sand.”

On Thursday, Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the patron saint of logical consistency, said: “Food security is national security, and right now we have a food security crisis for the most vulnerable of Americans, the ones that we cherish the most, and that’s our babies.”
Yes. Our babies. But not other people’s babies, I guess.
I know some are going to see Greene’s concern about food insecurity as strange given that she and her Republican colleagues helped bring an end to the extended child-tax credit, which had lifted 3.7 million U.S. children out of poverty.

But were those really our children? Who's to say. Let’s assume they weren’t.
yes republicans are anger that xiden’s policy has cause american babies to suffer
 
Come on Westwall - what choice do those children have? Why punish them?
So lets punish all babies equally, right? You worthless piece of flesh. US Citizens first then if there is anything left over then it goes to illegals and their anchors. Egad, i really despise people like you, willing to give this country away to the Communists.
 
A question equally worthy of asking the people who drag them here! For doesn't taking these kids in and feeding them also reward these people encouraging yet MORE be brought in the hope of using them to get their foot into the door of the USA?
You constantly hear from the Progressive Morons that ever increasing CO2 is causing the world to burn up, so lets bring millions of illegals here to the US, let them buy old gas guzzling cars while living in houses with multiple families creating tons of excess CO2. You just cant make up how much of morons the left have become..
 
Or....we could not play partisan politics with this issue..and that we should endeavor to feed all children irregardless of immigration status.

Using this shortage to advance a partisan political agenda is contemptible~
No, using a partisan political agenda to virtue signal for illegals at the expense of American children is contemptible
What part of America First offends you people so much?
IDC if the British push for Britains first. That makes sense & is their right as a sovereign nation. Same for every other country
 
Hit the road if you feel or wish “American babies After illegal ones”

The part about abusing non American children.

Why do feel this insane need to punish babies at all? These babies are incarcerated, being held at the border. The 1997 Flores settlement set minimum conditions required for children held in immigration detention and that includes baby formula.

I really despise people like you who think it’s ok to abuse children simp,y because they aren’t American.

Frankly, before commercial (and more expensive) baby formula, we made our own and it just as nutritous. No American babies are suffering,
