    ABC News attempted to stir the pot with a Tuesday piece talking about the anxiety being caused in immigrant communities — even where the immigrants
    were in the United States legally — but Fox News host Greg Gutfeld said he could see what they were really up to.

    Teasing the article inane X post, ABC News wrote, “President Donald Trump’s immigration policies already are affecting schools across the country, as officials find themselves responding to rising anxiety among parents and
    their children, including those who are here legally.”

    President Donald Trump's immigration policies already are affecting
    schools across the country, as officials find themselves responding
    to rising anxiety among parents and their children, including those
    who are here legally.

    The article dug into recent immigration raids, enacted by President Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security, and claimed that they were
    disrupting education in communities where immigrants lived in a number of
    ways.

    In some places, the piece alleged, false alarms had caused panic among immigrant families. In others, real raids had resulted in fearful families keeping their children out of school. “And in Alice, Texas, a school official incorrectly told parents that Border Patrol agents might board school buses
    to check immigration papers,” the piece continued.

    Instead of simply going about their daily lives, the article claimed,
    immigrant families have been struggling with the fear and anxiety that comes with “separating facts from rumor” over the raids.

    The ABC News piece failed to mention that Border Czar Tom Homan has been very clear about his preference to work directly with law enforcement to first target those who had broken laws in addition to entering the United States illegally — and the raids were primarily the result of sanctuary cities and states refusing to cooperate.

    Gutfeld wasn’t buying it, and he called out ABC News over the framing of the article: “step one: foment anxiety. step two: report on the anxiety. step three: pretend you didn’t cause the anxiety. step four: wonder why everyone hates the media,” he posted via X.

    Well, that's one of the consequences of breaking into a country without authorization and living in it illegally.

    Don't want to struggle with fear and anxiety? Don't illegally break into another country.

    If I illegally entered Italy, it would be my fault if I was constantly in fear of being discovered and sent back. Not Italy's fault.

    Moviepig needs to update his "lost the debate" routine.
