Woman in Viral Border Photo Lets Slip Why She’s REALLY Here
By Steve Straub
The woman in the now infamous viral photo of her and two children running from teargas just accidentally revealed the real reason she’s here trying to ram her way into the United States.
It’s NOT what the mainstream media is peddling.

While perhaps admirable and understandable that does NOT qualify her for asylum as former acting ICE Director Homan explains:
“Well, first of all, I’ve said many times I certainly feel bad for the plight of these people but, they are not asylum, they are not true asylum seekers. They don’t qualify under existing law to claim asylum, they want to come here.
You’re seeing them they’re caring signs I want a job. That doesn’t qualify for asylum. So I certainly understand the plight of these people. I can certainly understand them wanting to be a part of this country but there is a legal way to do it.
And they aren’t following the legal process.
They are using the asylum system which harms real true asylum seekers who really are escaping fear and persecution.”
Exactly right!
If she wants a better life for herself and her children there’s a legal way to go about it.
You don’t try and bust down the front door.
All that said, some are now casting doubt on the authenticity of the viral photo, as the Western Journal reports:
***
First, many people in the immediate background were not running.
Second, a family not far from the mother appears to be stationary as a cameraman stood next to them, as if they were preparing to take a staged picture.
Third, a cameraman can be seen set up with his tripod just down the way with a young boy running toward him.
Finally, the smoke is actually blowing downwind from the woman.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our main websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
