The #2 ranking Senate Democrat has called upon Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Kirstjen Nielsen to resign, following the release of a government watchdog report. The report found that the Trump administration stole thousands more children under the zero tolerance policy than was previously known. No one has been held accountable for this humanitarian disaster at our southern border, Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois tweeted. DHS Secretary Nielsen should accept responsibility for this outrage and resign.

Where are the children ripped from parents before the regime even started accounting for them?

Oh and get some whistleblowers to join in. They must have stories about abuse and drugging those poor kids up.

While we are visiting fantasy land, then the World Court could then move on to the Orange Shitgibbon and he could share that Spandau vacation.

Are the 'guards' being paid? What is the contingency if the money runs out?
If no resignation, Nielsen has some serious explaining to do.
