One nation, under God [sic]
"In the email, the trooper said medics “were given orders to push the people back into the water to go to Mexico” and were also ordered not to give water to the migrants.
The email is a report of weekly events and operational concerns from June 24 to July 1 while the officer worked as a trooper-medic. The email was first reported by the Houston Chronicle on Monday.
In one seven-hour period late last month, according to the email, two medics from the state Department of Public Safety said they treated:
A 4-year-old girl passed out in 100-degree heat after Texas (National) Guard personnel pushed the group she was in back toward Mexico
A man with a significant laceration on his leg, suffered when he tried to rescue his child from razor wire placed on a deterrence buoy in the Rio Grande
A 15-year-old boy with a broken leg, suffered when he tried to cross a more dangerous part of the river away from the buoys
A 19-year-old woman trapped in the wire having a miscarriage."
Jesus weeps.
