The Democrat-sponsored harassment of Republican officials continues unabated.
On Tuesday, a group of illegal immigration supporters confronted Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his wife, Elaine Chao, as they were leaving an engagement at Georgetown University.

The group somehow managed to just waltz right up to the senator’s SUV, surrounding the couple as they tried to leave, and repeatedly shouted at them.
“Why are you separating families, huh?” one protester demanded. “Why are you separating families?”
Another shouted repeatedly, “How does he sleep at night?!”

Others played audio of crying children in a misguided attempt to argue against the administration’s current “zero tolerance” policy of enforcing the law at the southern border.
Chao was having none of it, dishing it back to these young men trying to intimidate her with her own equal fervor.
“Why don’t you leave my husband alone!” she shouted. “You leave my husband alone.”

When did it become okay for liberals to harass an Asian woman who works for the White House?
Oh, that’s right, when it became mainstream in the Democrat Party to threaten and intimidate women as long as they’re Republicans.

And how is it even possible that this group, considering the political atmosphere at this time, was able to just walk right up to the vehicle of a sitting senator, the Senate Majority Leader no less, without any form of security stepping in to stop them?
This isn’t an unknown issue. Maxine Waters, a very high-profile Democrat, has repeatedly called for supporters to harass and incite violence against members of the Trump administration in recent days. (RELATED: Lawmaker Introduces Measure to Censure Maxine Waters After Calls to Violence).
Liberal protesters have already engaged in multiple instances of harassment against Republican women including Flordia Attorney General Pam Bondi, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen.

Chalk up another woman falling victim to the harassment in Chao, the Department of Transportation Secretary.
Ironically, and surely unbeknownst to these supporters of illegal immigration, Chao used the immigration system properly and legally when she came to America at the age of eight.
She would go on to become the first Asian American woman, and the first Chinese American in U.S. history, to be appointed to a President’s Cabinet – a true American immigration success story.

WE THE PEOPLE’ HAVE THE POWER OF OUR VOICES AND OUR VOTES, TO VOTE OUT THE ENTIRE LYING,CORRUPT, TREASONOUS DEMOCRAT PARTY COME NOV 2018, VOTE TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN AND TO END ALL CORRUPTIONS IN WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT SHARE WITH OTHERS
I just wish once the pompous butt holes who think harassing people and slinging S slogans at them is the humane or thoughtful way to deal with this. Just how stupid and rude do they wish us to think they are? As for the actual issue what kind of parent puts their family ina situation where their child will be separated and too often just flung at the border like a cannonball without the accompaniment of parents? These dullards do not truly appreciate the risk they encourage people to take for all their thoughtless and rude banter.
What would you call 10,000 liberals chained together on the ocean floor? A really great start.
These liberal folks seem to have forgotten one thing. These people that are in detention centers have broken the Law of the United States of America. They have illegally entered into the country with their children knowing its illegal. If they want to come here as my wife and her relatives did utilize the LAW and do it right. I have no sympathy for any of them. Can you tell me how much it costs us as tax payers to have to deal with this mess? Millions yearly! Money we could be using to care for the poor children inside the USA, not giving it to outsiders. YOU ARE PAYING FOR THEM EACH AN EVERY ONE.
Okay, here’s the inconvenient truth about the democratic party. They are the most racist group of people I have ever encounter. Some of the things that have come out of their pie hole, was very shocking, but it taught me this they do hate ALL of the minorities in this country. And, come on… they don’t care about these illegals either, they are just being used as public political pawns and want them for one reason and one reason only… THEIR VOTES. You’ve got that idiot Maxine Waters making ludicrous statement of… If you elect me I will ensure you, you will get your reparation. For What? Who was oppressed Maxipad? Who was harmed? She makes these stupid statements that she knows will never pass in congress, but it does give her an out, blaming those mean republicans who just don’t care about them as much as she does.
They have been trying to hide their true past, so desperate to rewrite their history, like the Democratic Party defended slavery, assassinated one of the best Presidents in our history, started the Civil War, founded the KKK, and fought against every major civil rights act in U.S. history? And, for them, their true past shares the inconvenient history of the Democratic Party. I’d sick of this toxic environment, their intimidation traits, spreading fear, hate and intolerance across this country and they behave as if they’re winning. I still believe they will lose more seats in Congress because they have taken this ugly path, they continue to acknowledge the good President Trump has done and they silently hoping our economy fails.
Yesterday, I sent out a challenge to three California liberal democrats. Jerry Brown, Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters since all three were appalled when President Trump called members of the MS-13 “animals” and had posted on Facebook. I challenge these California politicians and lawmakers/lawbreakers to put up or shut up. I dare Nancy Pelosi, Jerry Brown and Maxine Waters to invite a member of MS-13 to live in your home for 1 year (if they have a wife or children then they should be included), because you don’t want to separate a family isn’t that right Nancy, Maxine and Jerry) You will provide them shelter 24-7, you cannot use them to cut your lawn or do your laundry, they are not your unpaid helper, they’re a guest. You must provide for them, a bed inside your home (not sleeping on the floor or living in your garage or basement), you must provide for them 3 meals every day and I’m not talking about a quarterpounder and fries from McDonald’s. Three home cooked meals sitting around your dinner table with the rest of your family. You must give them a key to your home, a new car, a cellphone, pay for all of their expenses, provide them with your Rolls Royce healthcare plan, clothes, the code to get onto your property, as your properties have an enormous brick wall surrounding your home, which was built to keep these same people out. Going on vacation, yep you got it so will they. For Pelosi and Waters, who have multiple homes, so whatever home you’re in, so will these so-called liberal “victims.” Where you’re in Cali or the district of corruption, so will they also challenge all of the pro-illegal celebrities. ARE YOU ALL UP FOR THE CHALLENGE? I really want to see that spark of divinity Pelosi keeps talking about! I’m envisioning the look of terror on both of their faces.
Note to “Dreamer” who wants to behave like a NAZI Brown Shirt THUG with his roving gang of fellow FASCIST LOONS accosting and THREATENING members of our government in public, and acting as though they have not only “right” to do so, but it’s somehow COMMENDABLE for them to behave this way:
This is NOT the way you convince us that we should allow your overentitled ILLEGAL A$$ to remain in this country–where I hasten to point out, you have NO LEGAL RIGHT to be! In fact, based on your behavior, as described here, I say DEPORT YOU NOW and your ENTIRE damned ILLEGAL FAMILY with you. We sure wouldn’t want to “separate” your family!
Maxine Waters incited violence of a partisan nature against Officials by private entities by encouraging harassment and stalking; both violent crimes. She violated Rule XXIII – Code Of Official Conduct:
14. A Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner may not, with the intent to influence on the basis of partisan political affiliation an employment decision or employment practice of any private entity—
(a) take or withhold, or offer or threaten to take or withhold, an official act; or
(b) influence, or offer or threaten to influence, the official act of another.

All those Macho Liberal men?…seem to only go after women…I guess they are afraid of getting their jaws jacked if they confronted men
One reason to NOT support illegal immigration – about in year 2009 two beautiful high-school seniors, driving along a local highway were rear-ended and killed by – an illegal immigrant (who probably had too much tequila at that). Their parents, schoolmates, all who knew them – even a few of us who did not – were appalled and devastated. They had NO driver’s license, no proper registration, etc. for the car and had not only NO business being on the road-they had NO business whatsoever being in the United States of America. This is but one example. Others of gangs, drug-related crimes, etc. abound. Any one of these who want to whine about illegals and their families should put themselves in the place of a family that faced such a terrible loss…
What gets me is the “dreamer” who was the ring-leader of this MOB that accosted McConnell and his wife obviously thinks he and his EQUALLY ILLEGAL parents have some kind of “RIGHT” to stay here, just because they succeeded in sneaking in here and managed to evade detection for 20-some years. He does not seem to understand that he is ALREADY a CRIMINAL–and SO are his PARENTS. I say he’s concerned about “keeping families together?” Fine–I say let’s keep HIS together and deport EVERY DAMNED ONE OF THEM together! We do not need roving gangs of over-entitled ILLEGALS roaming around looking for people to accost and intimidate. THROW IHM OUT NOW–and his damned ILLEGAL parents who brought this little FASCIST Brown Shirt here in the FIRST PLACE OUT of this country.
Typical gutless, vomit-inducing Dems. Bastards. I’d like to see them try it with me and my pals…most of us are 100% Italian. The gutless pukes would never try us, of course, but if they did they would be spread all over the street after we kicked their asses.
I don’t have to wonder who is paying them to do this. Soros is behind it and he needs to be run out of America for ever. Maxine Waters has got to go also. Some body is going to get hurt or killed. Soros wants the Republicans to do something and start a war with the Democrats. Well the laugh is on you Soros because the Republicans will stop it the right way.
Not one Liberal has an answer to one simple question. What makes ILLEGALS SO SPECIAL THAT THEY HAVE SPECIAL RIGHTS THAT CITIZEN’S DON’T HAVE ??? When an adult citizen in our COUNTRY is arrested for any, and I mean any reason, they are not allowed to bring their children with them while they are incarcerated. SO AGAIN I ASK FOR JUST ONE LIBERAL TO EXPLAIN THEIR SPECIAL TREATMENT OVER A CITIZEN !!!
One can only hope that this outrageous new leftist trend backfires in a really big way, because if it doesn’t, we’ll be another step closer to a state of anarchy. The hypocrisy and double standards of these leftist louts are truly mind-numbing. I wonder if many people notice that it’s always the Left that engages in these tactics. Violent, ugly confrontation is their answer to everything.
Don’t you just LOVE how the “Dreamer” THUG leading this mob seems to think that it is not only RIGHT for him to behave this way, but COMMENDABLE? He ALSO seems to think he and his EQUALLY-ILLEGAL famliy have a “right” to be here. WRONG! I say let’s not separate his family–DEPORT THEM ALL, and let’s NOT waste time doing it! Or are we going to wait until he and his Brownshirt Nazi THUG PALS injure or KILL somebody with this “confrontation” BS?
The liberals are the most idiotic ignorant dumbasses known to man kind. Don’t they watch the f__king news or do they just do what anyone tells them to do. POTUS signed and Executive Order the keep these families together already. Why don’t they STFU already. We are so sick and tired of their B.S. Soon one of them may meet up with a bullet! Better back off you liberal idiots! WE ARE TIRED OF ALL YOU LIBERALS! Maxine Waters needs to be replaced immediately! DO IT NOW!
Elaine Chao has more guts than her husband, maybe she should be the Republican Senate Leader and not Mitch? The Republicans must begin to fight back against these insults and assaults with fire and fury. If the McConnell’s didn’t have a SS escort, then they should of had one. If they did have a SS escort, then all of them should be fired and replaced immediately!!!
something has to be done…these liberals are unhinged….
LOCK AND LOAD THATS HOW YOU STOP THEM
If you incite violence, you are no different than Maxine Waters.
Where were these hypocrites when Obama detained and separated far more illegal immigrant children from their parents then has the current administration. Obama’s own Homeland Security chief Jay Johnson actually said this on Fox this past Sunday.
“How do you sleep at night?” is not an argument. Oops. I forgot, other than hypocritical hysteria, the left has nothing. BTW – I suggest checking that guy’s immigration status.
It is already OBVIOUS what his “immigration status” is. He is another damned “DREAMER” who thinks just because he and his ILLEGAL parents sneaked IN here and managed to evade detection for 20-some years that they have some kind of “squatters’ rights” to STAY here. WRONG! I say deport HIM and his ENTIRE FAMILY–let’s not SEPARATE them, since he objects to that with such self-RIGHTEOUS fervor!
These rude, misguided idiots are getting in her face! Since security is slow in doing their job, she should have introduced these
“protestors” to a Face-Full-of-Mace. Also, these fools don’t recognize the fact that Trump signed an Executive Order to put the families back together. Undoing the clinton law!
Ms Chao, If you would like to have volunteer security contact me, I can give you 90 days it will cost you nothing . I promise you if you are assaulted the assaulters will still be lying there when the meat wagon gets there
Soon the sleeping giant will awake and you will see the Right fight back against these snowflake libtards. Blood will be shed and lives lost as with every civil war.
My first thought, other than disgust, was, are these so called secret service protectors ALL fired this morning? I sure hope so. I was applaud that they just did nothing. The least would have been to step between the two to protect her. Cowards all.
You ask when did it become ok? With the alt-left democrats it has always been OK to use nazi-esque tactics to get their way. Duh.
This is definitely an Alinsky tactic. Having a small amount of people make a big stink, leading others to believe that there are a lot of people behind it. NO, THERE ISN’T! THAT IS WHY DONALD TRUMP IS PRESIDENT! We should not fall for this tactic!
This is assault with unknown intention possibly to do bodily harm or cause death. A flurry of bullets to stop the deadly aggression is justified.
Since because of the Leftist LOON derangement, we are now going to have to pay for Secret Service protection for EVERY member of Pres. Trump’s staff–including his cabinet, I vote the SS be armed with both a LETHAL variety of handgun, and a rifle or shotgun with a large, HEAVY stock, and the next time one of these little Nazi Brownshirt THUGS comes strutting up and surrounds one of those officials this way, they should be CLUBBED like harp seals on an ice floe. I’m thinking these GUTLESS “macho” wonders who seem to really ENJOY bullying/intimidating the WOMEN in the Trump administration–would quickly lose their enthusiasm for this crap after a few of them are left BLEEDING on the pavement wondering what happened!
Sorry–that should read a GROUP of these little Nazi Brownshirt THUGS. “ONE” can’t surround anybody! SMH.
The old Democrat Community/Alinsky Organizers, KKK, OWS, Antifa, BLM, DNC,Brown Shirts, etc., tactic of intimidation and hate on display. They never fail to maintain their image, do they?
They only understand one thing-and thats an old fashioned ass whuppin!
My wife is Chinese too but not WH official. Regardless of this, if any of these commie punk scum would approach her uninvited, the hail of bullets would be the clear answer. These rats (democRATS) will not learn until the first 100-200 of their buddies and comraded not gunned down!
I can’t have much respect for the little Communists that still show up with their Grammar School back packs and backwards ball caps. That right there tells me these fools have zero life experience. What are they going to do when their mob scares someone into believing that their life is in danger and they empty a Glock into their guts? Back off nitwits unless you really want to start a Civil War.
I bet none of these punks have jobs! Time to start fighting back.
+Keith: …. Back off nitwits unless you really want to start a Civil War ….
Too late for that. The Rapidly-Nazifying fascist Left “democrats” declared war the instant they refused to accept the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. By definition, that’s an act of war.
Why they will RIOT AND LOOT over bad old Republicans MURDERING innocent Latino schoolboys, of course. In case you haven’t NOTICED, EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. one of these LEFTIST LOONS gets pushback or BAD consequences for their DISGUSTING behavior, they immediately start playing “the victim” in the scenario. I’m sure we can expect that FASCIST LOON that owns the Red Hen restaurant and Mad Maxine Waters to start claiming that victimhood any DAY now, as well.
Confrontations is exactly what protesters want. Cell phone videos get published and encourage even more malcontents to confront government personnel where ever they are. They should never be allowed near the government personnel. Event and facility managers must provide separation security or a buffer zone. Protesters can scream all they want at thin air, but not disrupt and harass government working people or their relations. This is absolutely crazy, but easily solved. Some cities took on strategy to keep public street protesters from opposite sides separated. Do the same here. Develop a list of restaurants and expand to other service businesses later that are committed to serving food or providing a service only and will not tolerate any disruption of any type. This includes politics, race, ethnicity, religion, attire, cleanliness, etc. The list of restaurants and/or service businesses must have resources, procedures, and firm commitment to keep patrons and malcontents separated to be placed and remain on the list. Maintain the buffer zone. Don’t allow any confrontation to be recorded and empower others. Minimalize their tactics. .
Craig., I’m betting if those “cell phone videos” include a few of them lying around in a pool of their own BLOOD on the sidewalk, that others of their “courageous” ilk will NOT be encouraged to imitate them!
I suppose it will be just a matter of before one of these idiots gets up into the wrong face…Straight up, mine or one of my loved ones would be the wrong face for starters.
Haha….The left. Always base crowd mentality and void of any intelligent discourse. Once they get started they stay on the same chant or rant. It’s indicative that they are walking their 5 minutes of fame, especially if there are TV cameras around.
