Hillary Clinton, just now: This is not happening because of the 'Democrats' law,' as the White House has claimed. Separating families is not mandated by law at all. That is an outright lie and it's incumbent on all of us, journalists and citizens alike, to call it just that.

We'll have someone clean up the blood that's dripped from your fangs, no worries."

(11,885 posts)This has been a pattern trump and the gop have been doing to children all along, remember. They passed a law taking health care away's from millions of kids, cut their food programs, refuse decent gun legislation, and on and on . They don't care about the children , and their policies show it. Supporter s people that promote child abuse on little children should be shamed out of office.
