The woman who teared up when a child asked about safety at a school has no care about children being separated from parents?

Oookay.

The outrageous despicable inhumanity and duplicity of people who would treat children this way, knowing (as they must by now) that this will permanently scar these poor kids, in an attempt to hold them ransom for political gain makes me so furious I can hardly type.

Btw, every time one of them opens their mouth to pass the blame to Democrats or Congress in general, all I can hear is the domestic abuser saying “See what you made me do! I hate that you make me do this!”

She added: “We want to fix the whole thing. We don’t want to just tinker with one part it."

Its called democracy, stupid.
Compromise and fix the most egregious things first that the WH, on its own, initiated, and refuses to stop.
(This democracy thing might actually work for the first time in this Presidency.)

Gonna leave this right here:

The Senate failed to get the 60 votes needed to move forward on four separate proposals, including one backed by President Donald Trump and a separate bipartisan bill that had been the most likely to win approval in the deeply divided Senate.

Trump helped defeat the bipartisan bill, which went down in a 54-45 vote, by labeling it just hours earlier as “a total catastrophe.”

He instead backed a Republican plan that would offer Dreamers a path to citizenship but also commit funding to build a wall on the U.S. border with Mexico and impose much tougher restrictions on legal immigration

In a blow to the Republican president, 14 senators from his own party opposed that bill, which failed by an emphatic 60-39 vote.

It doesn’t matter how many times they try it “Stop me before I kill again” just isn’t the compelling political message Republicans think it is. There’s a reason they never talk about doing this stuff before elections.

If they just fix this then Trump won’t get $$$ for the Wall. So the kids are hostages, or just another brick in the Wall.

So where is the Gang of Eight’s proposal? Hey Rubio couldn’t you see this coming?
Sen. Michael Bennet, D-CO
Sen. Dick Durbin, D-IL
Sen. Jeff Flake, R-AZ
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-SC
Sen. John McCain, R-AZ
Sen. Robert Menendez, D-NJ
Sen. Marco Rubio, R-FL

According to a National Law review article: The policies envisioned by the Senators include the following provisions:[6]

A path to citizenship for [Unlawfully present aliens][7] already in the United States is contingent on certain border security and visa tracking improvements. The plan provides for permanent residence for[Unlawfully present aliens] only after legal [lawfully present aliens] waiting for a current priority date receive their permanent residence status and a different citizenship path for agricultural workers through an agricultural worker program.
Business immigration system reforms, focusing on reducing current visa backlogs and fast tracking permanent residence for U.S. university [student visa]immigrant graduates with advanced degrees in science, technology, engineering or math also known as the STEM fields.
An expanded and improved employment verification system for all employers to confirm employee work authorization.
Improved work visa options for low-skilled workers including an agricultural worker program.
Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-NY[5]

“Once again, we want to fix the entire system,” Sanders
responded. “We don’t want to just tinker with it. The President is
tired of watching people kick it down the road and not take
responsibility and not fix the problems that we have.”

“Once again, we want to break the entire system” Sanders said “We don’t just want to adjust the things that aren’t working. The President has taken funding away from every department, state, and county in America with the tax cuts and grown the deficit, but he won’t take responsibility ever. We’ve done our best to turn this nation over to the Russians and base it on their corrupt Oligarchy, and we are saddened that the people are not grateful to us. I believe that children are the future.”

Meanwhile, DHS Secretary was laughingly saying that congress could fix the problem instantly. I’d love to see that split screen.

“No no, we’re just keeping the children in cages until you meet all of our demands. There’s no hostages…”
