No shock there - Coulter was an early proponent of the nazi fetishism that currently runs the GOP.
 
****in' illegal alien child actors are taking jobs away from real Americans. Being a child actors is one of the few ways children are employed, but the left will turn a blind eye.
 
Thanks Sylvan.

Clinton responded to Trump claiming Germany was a mess because of immigrants and gave some stats (all crime) in a speech about crime in Germany being down, Fox says she's wrong using different stats (violent crimes and a different time period) to contradict her.

I wish there was some fact checking handy, I'm tired at the moment.
 
The baby crying audio is getting a lot of news coverage, good.

The latest GOP talking point: none of the immigrants show up for their hearings if they get released after being processed.

No wonder, when people are instantly deported by ICE when they check in like they are supposed to.

Moral of the story: Don't try to smuggle your family across the border.

You know what families don't get separated? The ones immigrating legally.

That's factually incorrect. Those people seeking legit asylum are getting separated, too. Regardless, its am inhumane practice. period.
 
Let me add: I see that Joe Pollack, who is still at the white nationalist site Breitbart.com, is also justifying it, and saying that the kids aren't being held in cages (they are).

Wouldn't be shocked in the slightest if the white power Trio on Fox News (Hannity, Inghram, and Carlson) did so as well.

From Zora Neale Hurston: "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time"

And I'll add the old African-American proverb: "We told y'all." This is what I expected to see, and why I joined both the ACLU and the NAACP the day after Dolt 45 was elected. He ran on white supremacism, so no shock that he's governing based on it as well.

THey're being told to apply at ports of entry - except those have all been closed to asylum seekers. No different than "You just need to go down to the DMV to get a voter ID - also, we're closing all DMV offices in every majority black or Hispanic area in the state."
 
White House says they have to arrest all illegal immigrants and put them in jail. Would it not be better for them to deport them immediately than keep them here? It does not get rid of them to jail them.
:funny:
That was their reason for separating the kids, who are not criminals.
 
GOP pundit on CNN: "The Democrats want this, it's a voting issue."

Ummm, if that's the case why doesn't Trump end it?

The woman's losing her temper, "Trump ran on securing the boarder." The truth comes out.

Ahhhhhh!

Good thing no nation owes foreigners a port of entry.

Of course, according to the pundit on CNN: these are horrible parents because they send the kids off on their own (the other kids that arrived alone). This lady has no clue that everyone doesn't have her white-ass life.
 
It's always interesting to see who is willing to justify child abuse.

Let's say, just for the sake of argument, that it is all the parent's fault and no blame can possibly be assigned to Trump or anybody else American or working in any position of power. Does that actually justify separating the children from their parents? Does it mitigate the irreparable harm that is being done to the children? Are the children themselves culpable for any crime?

Or should the USA be better than that? Should it find ways to deal with the problem without abusing children? Even assuming that it's 100% the parent's fault, that doesn't mean that this policy isn't also wrong on America's side. If I tell you that I'm going to punch your baby in the face if you steal £1,000 from my bank account, then am I justified in actually carrying out that threat if you do so? Or is it possible for both the theft and the baby-punching to be wrong?

And, I suppose, the further question is - has this policy actually created a better situation than the one before it was implemented in May? Is anybody better off because of this? Is America better? Safer? Better off financially? Are there fewer immigrants? Bear in mind before answering that Sessions explicitly said that the purpose of this policy was to act as a deterrent. Is that a good enough reason for child abuse?

Before the new procedure mandated by the Trump administration it made sense to hold them here. The old procedure was keep the whole family together in a detention facility until they can see a judge. If the judge decides they have a valid asylum claim they get to stay here legally. If no asylum is granted then the whole family is deported together.

Now with this new procedure the more humane process would be to just keep them together and deport them ASAP. Instead we now inflict a ridiculous amount of emotional abuse on the parents and children by separating them, holding them longer, then deporting the parents and children separately. I don't think the Trump administration could have devised a more cruel but legal way to handle a terrible situation.
