USA Today Runs Big Story On DREAMer Getting Deported, Gets It Wrong

USA Today writers Alan Gomez and David Agren thought they had a Big Scoop regarding the Evil Trump Administration deporting a DREAMer, with the breathless headline

First protected DREAMer is deported under Trump

Of course, their little update, down near the end of the story, rather destroys their narrative

(Daily Caller) USA Today reported Tuesday that an illegal immigrant protected by Barack Obama’s amnesty was deported in February after spending an evening with his girlfriend. However, a Department of Homeland Security spokesman told The Daily Caller that this story is false because Juan Manuel Montes Bojorquez did not receive amnesty and was caught climbing over a border fence when he was detained.

The USA Today story said that Bojorquez, 23, was apprehended by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents while he was waiting for a car ride to pick him up.

According to the article, he told the officers he left his wallet in his friend’s car and because he didn’t have his ID or proof of his Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) status, he was deported.

“Within three hours, he was back in Mexico, becoming the first undocumented immigrant with active DACA status deported by the Trump administration’s stepped-up deportation policy,” the USA Today reporters wrote.

He may have been a DACA recipient at one point, but

David Lapan, a DHS spokesman, told TheDC, “Juan Manuel Montes Bojorquez was apprehended by the Calexico Station Border Patrol after illegally entering the U.S. by climbing over the fence in downtown Calexico. He was arrested by BP just minutes after he made his illegal entry and admitted under oath during the arrest interview that he had entered illegally.”

The spokesman added, “His DACA status expired in Aug. 2015 and he was notified at that time. In addition, he has a conviction for theft for which he received probation.”

Time Magazine has been spewing Fake News for as long as I can remember. Not worth mentioning them.

Status expired...he didn't carry his (expired) card near the border...he ended up in Mexico and got caught jumping the border...he was on probation after being convicted of a crime...

Any one of these events individually substantiate his deportation!

Shows the difference between fake news and false news!
