Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) sent out a series of four Tweets attacking the Trump Administration with allegations of "criminal abuses at the border" including claims they "sexually abuse immigrants."
Democratic 2020 hopeful Warren warns that "as president," she will start a task force at the Justice Department “to investigate the Trump administration’s criminal abuses at the border.”
“[W]e’ll hold perpetrators accountable,” she vowed.
“I’ve got a message for the Trump administration,” Warren warned in her first Tweet.
“When you physically abuse immigrants, sexually abuse immigrants, or refuse to supply immigrants with medical care that they need, you break the law of the United States of America.”

“Trump may look the other way—but President Elizabeth Warren will not,” she said in her second Tweet.
“I’ll launch a task force in the Department of Justice to investigate the Trump administration’s criminal abuses at the border, and I will hold perpetrators accountable,” she said.
This Tweet also includes a link to Warren’s immigration plan.

"As president,” Warren says in the plan, “I’ll work to expand legal immigration.
"I’ll take executive action to provide a measure of protection for those who are undocumented while pursuing a legislative solution that provides a path to citizenship.”
“When people come to our borders desperate—people whose lives have been turned upside down, people trying to build a better future—we need to treat them with humanity, and we need to follow the law,” Warren said in her third Tweet.

Warren's comments triggered an instant backlash in the comments.
We have a message for you, when you allow illegals to physically abuse citizens, sexually abuse citizens, murder citizens, or refuse to help citizens by favoring illegals you break the constitution, the supreme law of the Land.

You will never be President!
Among other criticisms, users pointed out Warren's offensive lack of distinction between immigrants and illegal aliens.
"Your willful ignorance is infuriating," one user responded.
"THEY ARE NOT IMMIGRANTS; THEY ARE ILLEGAL ALIENS."
