    Creepy close to dead accurate, anyone also want to think back on what “Shock and awe”, did to kids in IRAQ? We’ve got a LOT to worry about.

    For many reasons, the USA cannot call themselves the “greatest country in the world”. And this one takes their standing down a few more notches.

    ^ The comparisons are apt. The rallies, the threats, the disregard for Rule of Law, the belittling of anyone who opposes him, the desire for military parades, the demands for loyalty, the claims of supremacy, the comments he’s made admiring authoritarians…

    I’m guessing that Trump thinks there a too many “brown” people in the U.S. as it is.

    My question is: How long will it be before this demon (that some people laughingly call President) decides to take the next step, and simply kill anyone caught trying to come into the country?

    There was an article yesterday that said the Koch brothers are objecting to separating children from their parents. Not long after I read that, Repubs started saying they were now objecting to this action when many (like slime Cruz) had been backing this horrible practice the day before.

    Looks like JS is still here after all. That just shows the futility of posting direct replies to JS as “she” just comes back and deletes their post and your replies go away too.

    Toxic Trump must be a mental midget because he plays the Nazi card over and over and the greedy Republicans go right along with it.

    JOANSIMPSON ABOUT 3 HOURS AGO

    Donald Trump is enforcing an immigration law that President Bush signed into law in 1997, the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008. Children are separated if their parents are not present, if the child is in danger, or the parent is placed into criminal or asylum proceedings. Under the 1997 Flores Settlement while Bill Clinton was president children of illegal aliens cannot be held for more than twenty days. Children have to be released to proven relatives or foster care until their parents are processed. This did not seem to be an issue when Obama was president as photos taken during his administration have shown children in chain link cages.

    Quoted to give context to the replies here, and to make copypasta trolls accountable for their nonsense.

    Mr. Bell, another truly true depressing image of what our country is coming to these despicable acts of separating children and denying it to the public. Here’s a list of things that have been developing in the last 24 hours.

    Rachel Maddow broke down in tears last night and could not finish reading the breaking news of the tender age child care facilities . She later tweeted an apology for not being able to speak because it was too heartbreaking.

    Kirsten whats her name? is said that it’s the Dems fault for not coming to the table to negotiate comprehensive immigration laws and give Donald Trump his wall. When point in fact it is Yertle turtle who is blocking at least four important bills simply because he wants total control of the Senate and it’s he who decides what will be presented on the floor and what will not. 1) he is blocking bills to stop Trump from separating children from their parents. 2) he is stopping bills to fix the DACA situation. 3) he refuses to allow a bill to protect Mueller’s investigation to be presented on the floor discussed or voted on by the Senate. 4) he refuses to allow bills that will affect and fix our immigration laws. All of these as an example as to image of having sole control and only he has control of the Senate as majority leader and only he is allowed to decide what is presented on the floor.

    United Methodist Church has decided to reprimand and possibly excommunicate Jefferson Beauregard Sessions.

    Too many more things that happened than can find room for so that I can put them in this post. But in general all the articles are indicating that the entire world as well as a majority of Americans are disgusted and alienated by Trump’s and Sessions’ policy of separating children from their parents and compounding that erasing all links between parents and their children all information is being deleted from the system so that parents cannot find their children children cannot find their parents!!!!

    I saw Rachel Maddow break down last night when presented with news about the “tender age shelters” for babies and toddlers separated from parents. Yes, it is ugly! The only good news I see is that there are reports that trump administration and homeland security are beginning to rethink the separation policy. How stupid are these people to think that any of this made sense? Not only is it immoral, the optics of it are so ugly, and even from a labor and economic point of view— come on, let the parents stay with their babies and young children! If you have spent any time with young children, you know what their needs are! They can’t separate them and then have only a few government workers taking care of huge numbers of them. It doesn’t work to treat precious infants and young children like they are going out to feed the chickens. We are seeing very few pictures of them because they don’t want us to see the ugliness.

    @DARREN BELL… This is how powerful your images are emotionally. Just above here you can see my emotional rants because I can feel how horrible this is for both the parents and the children, I can feel how horrible this is to America as an honorable country which is turning into becoming one of those s..t hole countries that people are going to want to leave and never come back, and no one is ever going to want to come here again which is Trump’s xenophobic genocidal plan, all the better to subjugate us. Watching the news, watching the world despise us for this Zero Tolerance policy, watching some of the most racially prejudiced America’s Christians rise up in anger against representatives who are allowing this Zero Tolerance policy, yes, watching and feeling total frustration of not having the power to stop the insanity that is happening in our country. That’s how powerfully your images are affecting us all, who come here to see your cartoons because you have the view point and the talent to display our sorrow and our dismay and our frustration. Thank you for sharing with us.

    Well, after days of saying he could do nothing because it was someone elses fault, he said that he was the only one who could fix it and signed an executive order trying to make himself look good.

    This is not our proudest moment, week, month, year- and-a- half. I’ve seen a lot in my long life, but this makes me weep. We have the potential to be great, we have been great, but we are being divided, trashed, taught to hate each other and to make charity and hospitality dirty words. Mammon is the served god now. So shallow; so reprehensible! May the Presence bring us out of this alive and able to atone.

    ANDY Where to you get your information that the children are arriving unaccompanied? Does any parent with a lick of sense send a two-year old off into the unknown alone? This mess was created by The Great Pretender as a lever to force Democrats to fund his wall, and for NO other reason. The law he claimed caused all the trouble doesn’t exist except in his fevered brain. Let’s face it, anyone who doesn’t know health care is complicated and thinks trade war are easy is slipping over the edge. As far as Nazi references are concerned, there are folks on this forum who are old enough to remember. Read a few history books – there over in the non-fiction section. Start with the 940 section.

    NPR said there is gofundme set up for getting separated kids legal counsel and means to get back with their families. They have collected about 15 million so far but it has to be spread out among a few thousand. They must keep going with this work to get these kids the help they need.

    When the nazis built the first concentration camps, they had propaganda run with photos of how nice it was and fake letters written home saying how comfortable everyone was. History repeats itself. Maybe steven miller will eat his gun in the bunker? the thought makes me smile.

    While comparisons to the Nazi’s is way over the top, this image reminds me of the entrance gate to Dachau: Arbeit Mach Frei (Work will make you free). Not sure what ‘America’ Trump thinks he’s making ‘great’ again, but it certainly doesn’t resemble mine – and my family has been here since the Revolution.

    I think that sign, over the entrance, should read: Freiheit durch Inhaftierung! Far more appropriate!
