The 77-year-old House Minority Leader was left shaken and overwhelmed on Monday when illegal immigration advocates crashed her press conference and refused to leave.
A group of about 30 so-called “DREAMers” surrounded Nancy Pelosi and shouted chants at her in San Francisco.
Pelosi lost her cool and shouted back.
“If you do not want to listen!” she yelled, before trailing off.
“Where were you,” they chanted, “when we asked…”
“You never asked,” Pelosi responded under her breath.
“And now you have the audacity to tell us that you have been fighting deportation!” the mob chanted.
“Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes, I am! Yes, I am!” Pelosi fought back.
“You are a liar!” the illegals screamed at her as an activist held a sign over her shoulder reading “Democrats are deporters.”
“You don’t know what you’re talking about,” Pelosi said, seemingly groping for words.
Her lips and hand quivered as the group continued to heckle her, before accusing them of “not helping the cause.”
“We are the cause,” they mocked.
“Since you don’t want to listen, we’ll have to just go,” Pelosi responded before being led away by a security agent.
Just 11 days ago, Pelosi and Chuck Schumer sat in lawn chairs at the Capitol and praised illegal aliens who were there protesting President Trump’s decision to let Congress decide the fate of youngsters protected by President Obama.
As Schumer sat hunched over, Pelosi said, “Please know that when you are called ‘DREAMers,’ you’re not only dreaming for yourselves, but you’re dreaming the way our Founders would want Americans to dream,” as Schumer nodded enthusiastically.
“And again, you make America more American,” she added, “with your commitment to your own success, but also to your families and making the future better all around.”
“You’re dreaming the way our founders would like Americans to https://t.co/rqVqbqlvmK make America more America”
Pelosi knows nothing about the Founders. They were all White Anglo Saxon Protestants.
We fought a war to keep the Mexicans south of the border. Now they come across the border looking for work because there are no jobs or money in Mexico. ;)

Indications are that Mexico's economy (and government) are very close to going down the same path that Venezuela did.
i.e., bankruptcy and complete government breakdown

glad they aren't buying her crap. this was not about helping them, it was about fighting trump. Dems did nothing about this before.
When government gains the power to control the use of private property, it becomes possible for the politically dominant to profit by high commodity prices using government regulation to constrain supply. One merely drives competitors out of business by manipulating the perception of risk to a land use preferred by a democratic majority. - Mark Edward Vande Pol

I don't see how when most of the largest US Manufacturers have plants there,and half the Mexican citizens are drawing welfare or SS checks from Uncle Sugar.
Ford and John Deere have plants there,for example. Chances are some of their Mexican employees in Mexico are also drawing welfare in the US.

Could you tell us how that would work?
Sorry,I thought it was obvious. Mexicans who came here legally,or illegally and who got amnesty can get on the welfare rolls,and since they are here legally can travel back and forth across the border at will. There is nothing preventing them from crossing the border to go home to Mexico and work at John Deere,Ford,Westinghouse,etc,etc,etc because they are still Mexican citizens,and then going back to their government housing in the US on weekends to collect their welfare checks,Food Stamps,etc,etc,etc. After all,Mexico has no interest in reporting them to the US because they benefit from the money these people bring back from Mexico,and the US has no way of finding out who is and who is not working at any of the US factories in Mexico. After all,they may be working there under their actual names instead of the names they give to US authorities.
Don't forget,under Clinton it was decided to pay SS to any and every illegal alien who could prove they worked here long enough to qualify for for SS retirement,and we even agreed to mail the checks to them in Mexico. This means that any and every child they have under the age of 18 automatically qualifies for welfare,Medicaid,and Food Stamps. I can only assume they only have to register and those checks will be mailed to them in Mexico,also.
