CNN host Ashleigh Banfield on Thursday eviscerated a Texas
councilwoman who spearheaded the effort to ban undocumented immigrant
children from entering her city.
Earlier this week, League City became the first Texas town to pass a resolution
that would deny any request to assist the federal government in the
ongoing immigration crisis, and specifically ruled out detention centers
for children inside the city limits.
But when Council Member Heidi Thiess agreed to discuss the resolution
she authored on CNN Thursday, she probably did not expect to be shamed
on live television.
“Do you see how those who are your critics say that is just heartless?”
Banfield asked. “We’ve got kids being raped in overcrowded detention
facilities. They need help. These are people who are desperate, and they
need help. And, effectively, your critics say you’re just turning your
backs on them.”
