Give us the numbers on these “re-cycled” children, @SecNielsen.

Was Jakelin a “recycled” child? Was Felipe?

No and now they’re dead and the blood is on YOUR hands.

Give us numbers on how many people cross “illegally” because of this administration’s cruel metering which allows in TINY numbers of people at official ports of entry.

Give us the numbers of how many “illegal” crossings are a direct result of this immoral practice!

2/?
Give us the numbers of how many children who cross with adults are found not to be related to them.

What is the percentage?

Because even if that number was, say, 50% (WHICH IT ISN’T), we would STILL need to find a humane way to deal with the other 50%

GIVE US THE NUMBERS

Oh and have them first checked by your departments Inspector General, because we already know how good you are at keeping accurate records.

We’ll wait for some data from you, but we don’t think it’s coming.

We don’t think it’s coming because all that your department knows how to do and all your President knows how to do is stoke fear and resentment with LITTLE TO NO FACTUAL BASIS

FACTS MATTER

We don’t think any numbers are coming, because if you couldn’t give them to Congress, then what chance do we have of getting anything from you other than lies?

Lying to Congress is a crime by the way.

How was it that your boss phrased it?

LOCK HER UP

We agree on one thing: there is a humanitarian crisis at our souther border.

It is a crisis YOUR president and YOUR department created.

Your brutal, inhumane, and illegal enforcement policies did this and now you seek to end it with more brutality?

WE SAY NO

You DARE to utter the words “protect children?”

As if you care ONE IOTA for protecting children.

A person who cares about children doesn’t sanction their physical and mental torture with PRISON and separation from their families!
