This clip is a case-study in Trump lying: In a very rare on-camera exchange with reporters, & in a rare moment where reporters fact-check him on the spot, he gets annoyed, insists they let him speak and then repeats his lie, deliberately, consciously, brazenly, several more times.

Replying to @atrupar
REPORTER: Why did Sessions announce the family-separation policy?

TRUMP: He's following the law.

REPORTER: It's not a law!

TRUMP: The Democrats gave us the laws. I want the laws to be beautiful.

Christian clergy weigh in:

Cardinal Daniel Nicholas DiNardo, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, “While protecting our borders is important, we can and must do better as a government, and as a society, to find other ways to ensure that safety. Separating babies from their mothers is not the answer and is immoral.”

Rev. Franklin Graham: “Disgraceful. It’s terrible to see families ripped apart, and I don’t support that one bit.”

Bishop Kenneth Carter, president of the Council of Bishops of the United Methodist Church. “Tearing children away from parents who have made a dangerous journey to provide a safe and sufficient life for them is unnecessarily cruel and detrimental to the well-being of parents and children.”

Let me help move you a step up from stupid.

For the past several years, a growing number of people coming into the US without papers have been Central Americans — often families, and often seeking asylum. Asylum seekers and families are both accorded particular protections in US and international law, which make it impossible for the government to simply send them back. Those protections also put strict limits on the length of time, and conditions, in which children can be kept in immigration detention.

When the Obama administration attempted to respond to the “crisis” of families and unaccompanied children crossing the border in summer 2014, it put hundreds of families in immigration detention — a practice that had basically ended several years before. But federal courts stopped the administration from holding families for months without justifying the decision to keep them in detention. So most families ended up getting released while their cases were pending — which immigration hawks have derided as “catch and release.” In some cases, they disappeared into the US rather than showing up for their court dates.

The Trump administration has stepped up detention of asylum seekers (and immigrants, period). But because there are such strict limits on keeping children in immigration detention, it’s had to release most of the families it’s caught.

The government’s solution has been to prosecute larger numbers of immigrants for illegal entry — including, in a break from previous administrations, large numbers of asylum seekers. That allows the Trump administration to ship children off to ORR, rather than keeping them in immigration detention.

Who cares about these stupid kids anyway.? If the families would stay in their home country and stop invading ours, their family would still be intact. THINK

Ah, I made you mad. Poor you, but let's be clear.
Obama kept families together while Trump is cruelly ripping children from their parents' arms.

LIE.......media screwed up showing kids in cages thinking it was Trump when in fact it was pictures from 2014

Libs and bleeding hearts whining of 2,000 kids when 2.7Million American kids are seperated from Americans parents:
