Stephen Colbert attacks the policy.
TONIGHT! There is the right side of history and then there is the side of history where the Trump admin defends their policy of separating children from their parents. #LSSC pic.twitter.com/Wneh1PHgzR

Seth Meyers says that anyone who supports this policy should resign in disgrace.
But of course they won’t.
Matt Bors also weighs in on how the Trumpists are trying to now use the Bible to justify their actions.
Addressing the architects and implementers of this cruel policy, cartoonist Jen Sorensen invokes the spirit of Joseph Welch and his immortal words to senator Joe McCarthy, “Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?” If those who support this policy were honest, they would have to answer ‘yes’. But since they are not, they won’t.
Marcus Ranum says
Still waiting for all the 2nd amendment nuts who want guns “in case the government gets repressive” to stand up and be counted. (Actually it seems like a lot of them are on the other side)
Gregory in Seattle says
Have you seen this? News about the Regime’s separating family that had the calm and professional Rachel Maddow have a near breakdown on air.

How about this irony:
https://www.aol.com/article/news/2018/06/19/us-withdraws-from-united-nations-human-rights-body/23463117/
This while the administration is perpetrating one of the most vile cases of human rights violations by jailing babies.
.
Not to mention shooting black men for no reason, taking away people’s healthcare, etc., etc., etc.

johnson catman: So, ironically, it’s perfectly appropriate for the US to have withdrawn from the Human Rights Council.
johnson catman says
DonDueed @4: I was speaking of their accusations of other countries violations of human rights while they themselves are plenty guilty. I agree that the US should not be judging anyone on human rights violations.
