8:32 a.m.


House Speaker Paul D. Ryan said Thursday he disagrees with the Trump administration policy of separating immigrant children from their parents at the border.

"We don't want kids to be separated from their parents. We believe because of the court ruling, this will require legislative change," Ryan said.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) disputed that legislation is needed.

“This was an act of the administration, they had been planning this for a while,” Pelosi said in her own news conference.

“This is barbaric, this is not who America is, and this is the policy of the Trump administration,” she said. "The casual attitude that they’re having about this … they could weigh in with the administration and stop it on a dime."

Trump intentionally called them animals. It's part of making them less than human. The base could give a shit about those "animals" even if they are young children.

The Shitgibbon himself says he doesn't want to do it. That it is a bad Democratic law that requires it. Now Ryan is lending credence to that twisted notion. Ryan is a twisted fuck, a true sociopath.

Never anything but bad wishes for you, Paul Ryan for the rest of your miserable life.

You knew what was going on (with Russia). You were in on it. You took their filthy money and you installed
Devin "Rat-bastard" Nunes as House Intel. Chair to do everything he could to fuck with our Country.

Up yours asshole.

potentially most powerful person in Congress: the Speaker of the House decides what legislation the House votes upon, and if he wanted to Ryan could run a bi-partisan bill through the House to stop this behavior. But he won't, because he's a coward, a hypocrite, or just doesn't care.

Ryan, like his idol Ayn Rand, is a mindless, unintelligent, amoral piece of intellectual and ethical rot living in an unreal world of ignorance and cowardice.
