Judd: Under Obama, Border Patrol spent their own money on kids at border

Brandon Judd, president of the National Border Patrol Council, said that border agents spent "their own money" to buy diapers, formula, toys and other necessities for the children in their custody during the Obama administration, he said in an interview with Breitbart News' Senior Editors-at-Large Rebecca Mansour and Joel Pollak, during a broadcast on Sirius XM's "Breitbart News Tonight."

Judd stated:

 “Back in 2014, at the height of the children that were crossing the border without parents — the unaccompanied minors — when we took them into custody, we did not even have the basic necessities for those children, such as formula, such as diapers, and frankly, toys for these children to play with while we were waiting to put them into the hands of ICE.

“It was our border patrol agents that were going out with their own money they were buying these basic necessities for these children when the Obama administration wasn’t even giving us the resources in order to take care of these children. Yet you don’t hear that.”

And let us not forget the images of the children in cages the left blamed the Trump administration for were actually taken in the Obama-era.

Judd also spoke about the 2003 death of James Epling, a border agent who died after saving a drowning migrant in the Colorado River in Arizona near the U.S.-Mexico border. He left behind three young children and a pregnant wife trying to save a child "that shouldn't have been in the United States in the first place." He added, "Yet you don't hear about that. When James Epling died, it was barely a blip on the radar of the mainstream media, yet of course you're only going to hear when an illegal alien passes away in our custody."

Judd discussed how certain Democrats, the “mainstream media,” and “hard left” are framing the death of Jakelin Amei Rosmery Caal Maquin — a 7-year-old migrant girl from Guatemala who died while in the Border Patrol’s custody — as the result of negligent border agents.

It turned out the child unfortunately died of sepsis, an infection, and the only person to blame is her father.
