Crime against humanity:
Its not an exaggeration to say that the policies of President Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions may have essentially orphan hundreds of immigrant children, said Democratic California Sen. Dianne Feinstein during opening remarks at the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. Even worse are the stories we heard about that bad separations and the bad conditions in which they were held.

And one more thing: like Senator Blumenthal, who questioned the Trumpists directly today, she's a Jew who remembers WWII. You wonder why I would even bring that up? Well, based on the small sample of my own family, my husband finds this so gut-wrenching he refuses to even talk about it with me. I had insomnia for at least a week after the news broke -- but for him this is family history.

(51,591 posts)to "come clean" today and NONE of them would admit the admin did this on purpose, knowing that they never intended to unite families and intended to scare immigrants from even considering trying to come here for safety from their dangerous conditions in their home countries. They all sat there and said NOTHING! Ivanka is now sharing family photos again now that Dear Daddy signed the Exec Order clearing up this mess and is so glad it is all over and everyone is living happily ever after.
