Nah, nothing to do with people being fed up with Obama’s immigration policies.
Via The Hill:
Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.) is blaming Republicans for a California protest that blocked the transfer of child immigrants who had crossed the border illegally.
Protesters earlier this week prevented busloads of immigrants who recently crossed the border — mostly children and parents — to be transferred from the Texas border to the town of Murrieta, Calif.
Grijalva said Republicans were using illegal immigration as “canon fodder” for their base.
“And you saw the tip of the iceberg in California and if we allow carve-outs, if we allow to continue to fall backwards on this issue and not do anything, then what we saw in California is going to be replicated along the border,” he said on MSNBC.
“And the more time the Republican majority and the Republicans in Congress continue to use this issue as a political wedge or canon fodder for their base, the more that social divisiveness, that rip in the social fabric becomes more of a reality.”
