The claim that border patrol agents on horses whipped Haitian migrants illegally crossing the border spread like wildfire, pushed by the media and Democrats. But it was a lie, not just disputed, an outright hoax.
On top of all the other evidence, the photographer who snapped the now-viral photo confirmed there was no whipping:
The photographer behind now-famous images depicting Border Patrol agents on horseback appearing to chase migrants with whips says things are not exactly what they seem when it comes to his photos. . . .
. . . "Not only were whips not used, the reason horses were used is because that’s how border patrol patrols in terrain that is rough. Horses were not even used in an agressive manner, there’s no indication anyone was injured.
"The whip lie should have died within hours, but it’s still going on, and its being spread by Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the head of DHS, Alejandro Mayorkas, all of whom explicitly or implicitly compared it to slavery.". . .
"In August, a slew of healthcare groups gave their employees deadlines to take COVID-19 vaccines or face termination. Although these mandates on paper allowed for religious and medical exemptions, in multiple cases, when exemptions proved hard to come by, employees facing threats of termination resorted to lawsuits to hold onto their jobs.
"How did these lawsuits turn out, and who eventually submitted to the will of the other: the healthcare group or the plaintiffs?". . .
“Joe Biden claims the U.S. Constitution empowers a president to mandate vaccines. He is wrong. Under the Constitution, states, not the federal government have that power,” Brooks said in a statement, challenging anyone to “identify a provision in the U.S. Constitution that unambiguously gives Joe Biden or the federal government the authority he arrogantly claims.”. . .
Who is ignorant enough to allow our lives and livelihoods to be in the hands of AOC, Maxine Waters, Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, Rashida Tlaib, Eric Swalwell, Chuck Schumer, Mazie Hirono, Kamala Harris, and all others who hate this nation and control Joe Biden? The Tunnel Dweller
Democrats continue the push to persecute the unvaccinated "Americans discovered on Wednesday that, on Saturday, Democrats had slipped something awful into their $3.5-trillion ironically named "Build Back Better Bill." If the bill becomes law (and the only thing currently stopping it is that Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin are saying "no"), employers can be charged as much as $700,000 per unvaccinated employee. This is madness.
. . ."As the Democrats get more shrill and more vindictive, increasing numbers of people are going to assume that Democrats are acting from either insanity or malevolence. Either is a terrible choice for a once free country's political leadership.
"That's my summary of what's going on here. Tucker's is better:"
[George Mason economics professor Garett Jones] asks whether immigrants bring cultural attitudes, religious beliefs, a work ethic, etc. that will kill "the golden goose of first-world prosperity." Phrased otherwise, do immigrants make "the countries they move to a lot like the countries they came from?"
"Great news! For the millions of U.S. immigrants who really wanted to immigrate to Haiti, but couldn't get in ... Guess what? The country you're living in is about to become Haiti.
"This will also come as good news to the GOP's top-dollar donors, whose sole political thought is: HOW DO WE WIN THE BLACK VOTE? (Next goal: Reverse the rotation of the Earth.)
"Apparently, it's absolutely humiliating for people who live in 100% white neighborhoods to belong to a party that appeals to white people.

"With hordes of Haitians pouring across our border -- because a certain lying conman didn't build a wall -- this weird compulsion of the donors will only get worse. Before Republican geniuses start proposing "enterprise zones" for Haitians, maybe they should take a look at Haiti.
Haitian President Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier (1957-1971) began his regime by killing off or exiling the educated elite for being too light-skinned, then expropriated the peasants' small parcels of farmland, leading, like night into day, to mass starvation.
"Result: Haitian peasants adored him! Even after a regime of mass murder and widespread starvation,"...
