Abby Phillip is not alone with her moronic take that somehow entering our country illegally is not a criminal offense. You’d think the word ‘illegal’ would somehow tip her and other mouth-breathers off but … nope.
Luckily, Scott Jennings was front and center to explain that anyone entering our country without obeying the laws to enter our county is breaking them.
Crazy, we know.
Watch:
🔥SCOTT JENNINGS TAKES DOWN ABBY PHILLIP WITH COMMON SENSE!
ABBY PHILLIP: They’re not just going after criminals. @ScottJenningsKY: They’re going after people who are in the country illegally, right?
ABBY PHILLIP: This is a much bigger universe.
SCOTT JENNINGS: Doesn’t that… pic.twitter.com/7ZymQId7UC

Post continues:
SCOTT JENNINGS: Doesn’t that make you a criminal?
ABBY PHILLIP: No, it doesn’t.
SCOTT JENNINGS: To come across the border illegally?
ABBY PHILLIP: Coming into the country illegally is a civil offense. It’s not a criminal offense.
SCOTT JENNINGS: If you come into the country illegally, here’s the message. We’re going to find you and send you back. I mean, I’m sorry that’s the way it is…If you’re going to allow any illegal immigration at all, the message then goes out. Just get here. It’ll probably work out for you. That was the last administration. This is a different one!
Love that … we’re going to find you and send you back.
And no, we’re no longer under the administration that welcomes illegals into our country, all but prioritizing illegals over legal citizens.
Oh, and yes, it IS a criminal offense:
This is factually false.
Unlawful entry is a criminal offense under 8 U.S.C. 1325. https://t.co/teJ5BCzIja
