Trump’s DHS separated parents from their kids — and deported them. 545 parents STILL cannot be found.

THIS IS TORTURE:

“The kids would start crying and it wasn’t just tears, it was screams.”

@jacobsoboroff
BIDEN: “Children were ripped from parents’ arms and separated. And now they cannot find over 500 sets of those parents, and those kids are ALONE… It’s criminal!!”

TRUMP: “They are so well taken care of…”

“Donald Trump’s administration lost the parents of 545 children they abducted at the border and caged… Stephen Miller created the myth that these parents didn’t really lose their children.”

"The prior administration dismantled our nation's immigration system in its entirety… The entire system was gutted… It takes time to build out of the depths of cruelty that the administration before us established.” @SecMayorkas

“It cannot be that here and now in 2020 we allow the government of the people, by the people and for the people to perish on this earth. No, it cannot and it must not… WE WILL VOTE.” @JoeBiden in Gettysburg

“The FBI says white nationalism is a real problem, and the FBI wants to do something about it, but President* Trump doesn’t want to talk about that. He doesn’t keep the country safe.” @GenMhayden @RVAT2020

Typical income taxes:

Teachers paid $7239
Firefighters paid $5283
Nurses paid $10,216

...and Donald Trump paid $750.

That is unfair by any measure.

“President* Trump’s actions and language are in fact racist. Those words gave permission to white supremacists to think what they were doing was permissible… We are less safe today because of his leadership.” @NeuSummits @RVAT2020

“How do you make a broken family whole? The same way you make a nation whole. With love and understanding, and with small acts of kindness. With bravery. With unwavering faith.” Dr. Jill Biden @DrBiden

“There's a humility to the randomness of tragedy that brings about caring that cannot be faked. Grief humbles you. In this moment our country needs a leader of humility. We are in pain. It gives us hope that Joe Biden is #ManOfTheMoment.” @ReallyAmerican1

“If you can find purpose in profound loss, it makes it easier. What bothers me most is the admin now has no sense of EMPATHY… People are really saying, ‘Tell me I’m gonna be okay. Tell me I can get through it.’” Joe Biden

“President* Trump wanted to have a DELIBERATE policy of ripping children away from their parents… The things he wanted to do not only were impossible, but in many cases illegal.” @MilesTaylorUSA @RVAT2020

Melania Trump says that detained children are better off in cages than where they came from.

Melania in July 2018: “‘Oh what about the children that were separated?’ Give me a fucking break.”

#MelaniaTapes
We now know DOJ aided President* Trump’s family separation policies without ANY plans to reunite them.

@AliVelshi: "What was the point of this?"

@jacobsoboroff: "To inflict torture, in the words of @P4HR.”

President* Trump’s attacks on our U.S. Postal Service are deliberate decisions to hurt our veterans and to hurt our seniors who depend on mail for medications and checks. VOTE EARLY. @votevets #TrumpYouLose

Every journalist should ask President* Trump @svdate’s question:

“After three and a half years, do you regret all the lying you've done to the American people?"

Does he have any regrets AT ALL?
