- This is totally ridiculous. I have never once worn a bulletproof vest at the border, nor has CBP ever asked me to -- even while on a chase with Border Patrol to apprehend migrants in remote Arizona desert in the middle of the night. Because. The. Border. Is. Not. A. War. Zone.
- We can track our @FedEx packages down to the *second* if we want to. Why can’t the United States government figure out how to reunite 2,000 *kids* with their parents? Because there was no plan.
- BREAKING: Lawyers say they can't find the parents of 545 migrant children separated by the Trump administration. With @JuliaEAinsley.
- This is a lie. @realDonaldTrump is the only president to *ever* systematically separate migrant children from their parents as a stated deterrent policy. I saw those kids in cages with my own eyes — a direct result of a policy put in place by Trump and executed by @SecNielsen..@60Minutes did a phony story about child separation when they know we had the exact same policy as the Obama Administration. In fact a picture of children in jails was used by other Fake Media to show how bad (cruel) we are, but it was in 2014 during O years. Obama separated....
- "When I picked up my granddaughter from the federal agents, she had a dirty diaper, a bruise on her face, and was developing a rash. She was exhausted and cried… My heart aches knowing this could happen to others, to my kids, or even me, despite being U.S. citizens.”
00:00 - BREAKING: Judge overseeing reunifications says Trump administration's lack of plan to reunite remaining 572 migrant kids is "unacceptable." "For every parent who is not located there will be a permanently orphaned child and that is 100% the responsibility of the administration."
- I’m a part of the first group of journalists to go into the shelter for detained child migrants in Brownsville Texas since the zero tolerance separation policy was announced. 1000+ boys here. Going in right now. More tonight w @chrislhayes on @allinwithchris @MSNBC. #inners
00:00 - CBP announces *massive* seizure of fentanyl at AZ border. Guess where? Port of entry, not desert. Guess who? Mexican national, not Central American asylum seeker. Guess how? In a tractor-trailer, not a backpack. Guess what didn't stop it? A wall. Agents using technology did.Press conference on historic Fentanyl seizure begins in 20 minutes
- Also without apology for inflicting lifelong trauma on thousands of children forcibly taken from their parents.VP Mike Pence: "I couldn't be more proud to serve as vice president to a president who stands without apology for the sanctity of human life."
00:00 - Seeking asylum is legal.
- Not true at all. I was there in El Paso on Friday. The VP most definitely went to the border — specifically, the Paso del Norte Port of Entry, one of the busiest pedestrian border crossings in the United States."Harris didn’t even go to the actual border. She visited a Border Patrol station about nine miles from the Rio Grande, talked to some immigration activists and legal service providers, posed for press photos back at the airport, and departed for Los Angeles before 1 p.m." @nypost
- I was inside the detention center that separated more kids from any other. FLOTUS was in McAllen but didn’t go there. There is *nothing* phony about kids alone in a cage supervised by a security contractor in a watch tower. I saw it myself.We must maintain a Strong Southern Border. We cannot allow our Country to be overrun by illegal immigrants as the Democrats tell their phony stories of sadness and grief, hoping it will help them in the elections. Obama and others had the same pictures, and did nothing about it!
- Miles Taylor was a critical part of the team that decided to separated thousands of migrant kids from their parents, resulting in lifelong psychological trauma. He would like you to believe otherwise.
