In June 2018 social media users circulated disturbing photograph depicting a sobbing toddler clutching the bars of a cage in which he is confined.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is what happens when a government believes people are “illegal.”<br><br>Kids in cages. <a href="https://t.co/OAnvr9cl3P">pic.twitter.com/OAnvr9cl3P</a></p>— Jose Antonio Vargas (@joseiswriting) <a href="https://twitter.com/joseiswriting/status/1006397160622055429?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 12, 2018</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Liberals came out all over social media stating that the image depicted a boy who had been detained by (ICE) in 2018 and demonized Trump as being responsible for the boy’s circumstance.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">NO photo that 45 takes kissing Un’s ass will have the impact this photo of an immigrant child IN A FUCKING cage will have if we can get this to go viral. The world has to see this horror that is 45. RT, RT, RT. Please. <a href="https://t.co/2Hm55Kxacl">pic.twitter.com/2Hm55Kxacl</a></p>— PaulMay↩️ (@PaulMayATL) <a href="https://twitter.com/PaulMayATL/status/1006390948560097280?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 12, 2018</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
As it turns out, the photograph was taken on June 10, 2018, during a staged event in front of Dallas City Hall to protest against the Trump administration’s practice of separating families and confining undocumented children
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Trump, Sessions, McConnell, Ryan, this is on YOU! <a href="https://t.co/VR5m70eWsC">pic.twitter.com/VR5m70eWsC</a></p>— Ron Perlman (@perlmutations) <a href="https://twitter.com/perlmutations/status/1006710482533617664?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 13, 2018</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Different photographs of the event show that the same little boy was standing in a mocked-up “cage” open at the top. Commentators noted that the boy was crying because he saw his mother outside the “cage” and could not immediately figure out how to get to her, not because he was confined in the cage.
You can see the boy out of the cage in this photograph:

Snopes Update their truth rating on June 12, 2018, from Unproven to Miscaptioned. If this had been a conservative who posted this fake news Snopes would have labeled it “False” and called it a lie. “Miscaptioned”, really?

The Fake News is so out of hand. Liberals flock to it like geese and suck up every second of the lies. They then spread the lies to all social media outlets and when proven wrong, crickets.
Conservatives must keep exposing this fake news and calling them out for it.

Welcome to twatter and fagbook Matthew. All these people need is a small spark that fits their narrative and they are off to the races.
Anyone looking for a good laugh just read the comments on Podestas twatter feed. Makes the Presidents comments look kind in comparison. I only saw one or 2 comments supporting that POS.
I find what the MSM did is utterly repulsive. Trying to shame a Country into forced illegal immigration. This does not change my mind at all. It strengthens my beliefs that the parents of these children are criminals. First breaking illegally into a Country, and then by risking their children’s welfare. To avoid children in so called cages, don’t bring your children here illegally. We should not give due process to non-citizens. You come over the border, you should go back immediately- the whole family. MSM = EPIC FAIL
People, don't y'all get it yet?
The MSM, Liberals , Socialists and Powerful Rich are fighting to OPEN our Borders and become a 1 government world……without Borders. The only way to accomplish this is to take out the USA.
It's amazing that there is a liberal left after your exposure of the truth. Any lib associated with this missinfomation should scurry off in shame but we all know they have no shame.
Move on.org does this complaing on a daily basis bemoaning the “separations between parents & children- such liars and hyprocrisy
Expose them!!
More #FakeNews & lies from the leftists regime. So sick of it. Way to keep it in the spot light Lexy.
What's going on this country… Is an OUTRAGE!
Always give the bad actors enough rope to hang themselves with. Their day is coming…..Karma is always a bitch to those that are!
Ain’t my kids, my kids are American born n bred, hell with the illegals and their brats.
What bothers me is the idiots thst see this and believe it and vote for these idiots! America is at war! Another civil war! Anyone that doesnt see obstruction from doj and fbi sre just stupid!
Unbelievable! Thanks for exposing more FAKE BS Lexy & Goldwater!!
