Panama and Costa Rica Governments Are Doing Smugglers' Job for Them
Todd Bensman, the Center's Senior National Security Fellow who led the CIS reporting team, said, "At a time when the U.S. government remains partially shut down because congressional leaders have dismissed President Trump's national security concerns at the border, these Central American governments have effectively become human smugglers. They are moving huge flows of migrants (including many Middle Easterners) northward to our border. I interviewed migrants from terror-prone countries, including Pakistan and Iran, who outlined to me step-by-step how the authorities in Panama and Costa Rica are helping transport them closer to the United States."

The "controlled flow" policy originated in 2016, when the Panamanian government experienced large flows of Haitian migrants, and encouraged them to travel north rather than stay in Panama. The Haitian wave of migrants has abated, but the policy remains in place, as outlined in the video below.
Leftist Media triggered by Trump-loving U.S. troops; CNN slammed for reporting autographs against the rules
Published hours after President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump arrived in Iraq for a surprise visit with U.S. troops stationed at Al Asad Air Base, the piece specifically complained about the troops asking the president to sign their “Make America Great Again” hats.
“But troops’ requests for the autographs could brush up against [DoD] guidelines for political activities,” the virulently left-wing network breathlessly reported.
“Those guidelines say that ‘active duty personnel may not engage in partisan political activities and all military personnel should avoid the inference that their political activities imply or appear to imply DoD sponsorship, approval, or endorsement of a political candidate, campaign, or cause.'”
CNN even took the time to ask certain “US military authorities” for comment. None reportedly replied.
Video footage and the written report of Trump's visit with service members in Iraq showed signing of hats and a "Trump 2020" patch.

“It is in fact a campaign slogan, that is a campaign item, and it is completely inappropriate for the troops to do this,” Kirby said. “Every time [Trump’s] around military audiences, he tends to politicize it, and he brings in complaints and grievances from outside the realm of military policy.”
This stunning hit piece was not well received on social media, where CNN has been pilloried nonstop for attacking America’s men and women in uniform.

NBC’s Christmas Attack on Trump Backfires Hours Later
A left-leaning mainstream media news outlet has egg — or should we say eggnog? — on its face after an article slamming President Donald Trump over Christmas ended up being off base just hours later.
On Christmas Day, NBC News published what can only be described as a hit piece, scorning the president for seemingly ignoring American troops during the holidays.
“Trump becomes first president since 2002 not to visit troops at Christmastime,” that outlet’s scolding headline declared.
“By staying home on Tuesday, Trump became the first president since 2002 who didn’t visit military personnel around Christmastime,” NBC declared in its article.
But there was a glaring problem: The above statement not only turned out to be false, it seems that NBC was in such a rush to smear Trump that its reporters tripped over themselves.
As we just reported, President Trump and his staff had been planning a major Christmas trip to Iraq all long.
“President Trump and the First Lady traveled to Iraq late on Christmas night to visit with our troops and Senior Military leadership to thank them for their service, their success, and their sacrifice and to wish them a Merry Christmas,” White House press secretary Sarah Sanders tweeted on Wednesday.

“It was noted that the return trip from Iraq would make a stop at Ramstein Air Base in Germany, where the Trumps will also visit with U.S. troops who are stationed there,” The Conservative Tribune reported.
That’s a lot of holiday troop visits for a president who was just slammed by the media as ignoring the troops.....
