Tea at Trianon: Child Sex Abuse At Border Alleged

John Wilson Croker on Marie-Antoinette

"We have followed the history of Marie Antoinette with the greatest diligence and scrupulosity. We have lived in those times. We have talked with some of her friends and some of her enemies; we have read, certainly not all, but hundreds of the libels written against her; and we have, in short, examined her life with– if we may be allowed to say so of ourselves– something of the accuracy of contemporaries, the diligence of inquirers, and the impartiality of historians, all combined; and we feel it our duty to declare, in as a solemn a manner as literature admits of, our well-matured opinion that every reproach against the morals of the queen was a gross calumny– that she was, as we have said, one of the purest of human beings."

~from History of the Guillotine by John Wilson Croker, 1844

Edmund Burke on Marie-Antoinette

"It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the queen of France, then dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely there never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like a morning star full of life and splendor and joy. Oh, what a revolution....Little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fall upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honor and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look which threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded...."

~Edmund Burke, October 1790

Child Sex Abuse At Border Alleged

From Jeffrey Lord:

“Texas officials are investigating allegations of child sex abuse and neglect at San Antonio’s Freeman Expo Center, where thousands of migrant children who crossed the border are being held.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott made the alarming announcement at the center Wednesday night, according to News4SA.

The Republican said there are four complaints being investigated: child abuse, understaffing, unfed children and a failure to separate kids with COVID-19 from healthy children, the report said.”

The Governor added this obvious point: “These products are a bi-product of President Biden’s policies.”

Governor Abbott is exactly right.

The real tragedy here is that none of this is rocket science. Why is all this happening? The American Military News headlined the reason right here:

The story cites a report from ABC’s Martha Raddatz and says this:

“An illegal immigrant told ABC News on Saturday that he unlawfully crossed the border into the United States because Joe Biden is president, noting that he would not have attempted the journey if Donald Trump still held office.

When ABC’s Martha Raddatz asked the illegal immigrant father – who traveled from Brazil with his wife and three children – if he would have tried crossing the border when Trump was president, the man responded, ‘Definitely not.’

ABC’s Martha Raddatz to illegal alien who crossed the border: ‘Would you have tried to do this when Donald Trump was president?’

Illegal alien: ‘Definitely not.’

Raddatz: ‘Did you come here because Joe Biden was elected president?’
