read this and weep

Jacob Soboroff is one of the only reporters given access to the child detention camps operated by the U.S. government, and he was horrified by what he saw there.

The reporter appeared Friday on “Morning Joe” to process the experience, which he said was the most unnerving in his life.

“I witnessed one of the most despicable moments in modern American history,” Soboroff said. “I saw kids locked in cages, sitting on floors, supervised by security guard contractors in a watch tower in McAllen, Texas.”
