Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) claimed on Wednesday that U.S. Border Patrol agents, who were defending the U.S. Southern Border from illegal aliens while on horseback, were acting in a manner that was “worse than … slavery.”
Waters expressed no sympathy for the small Texas town of Del Rio, which has been flooded with more than ten thousand illegal aliens, and which has reportedly resulted in food shortages in grocery stores.
