San Antonio Rep. Tony Gonzales says agents filmed whipping reins at migrants 'doing God's work'

U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales, whose district includes San Antonio, defended U.S. Border Patrol agents shown in a viral video appearing to whip the reins of the horses they were riding at Haitian migrants along the U.S.-Mexico border.

In a Tuesday interview with CNN, the Republican said the agents were "doing God's work" as they tried to stop migrants from crossing the Rio Grande River into Texas. Thousands of asylum seekers, primarily from Haiti, are now crowded into a refugee camp under a bridge in Del Rio.

"It's a very desperate situation, and they're doing God's work, fighting everything they can," Gonzales told the cable network. He added that Border Patrol agents have been "working around the clock on this crisis for months on end."

Further, the congressman also argued that chaos around the migrant camp was inevitable.

"The last thing any of us want to see is the mistreatment of anyone, to include migrants, but when you have tens of thousands of people and only hundreds of Border Patrol agents, it creates a very desperate situation," he said.

God should strike him down with a bolt of lightning for the ridiculous claim that the Border Patrol agents were doing God's work.

3. If there is indeed a God, the God I would prefer to follow would not chase the...

downtrodden, but would bring food, medicine, toilets and showers for them.

The Jesus this scumbag believes in chased the money changers out of the temple with a whip. His father wiped out almost the entire world's population because of its corruption.

If you are going to push religion, push the parts that make this planet better, not meaner and poorer.
