"UN: ‘Nothing normal’ about U.S. detaining immigrant children" PBS NewsHour 6/5/2018
Excerpt
SUMMARY: More than 650 children were separated from their parents at the U.S. border during a two-week period in May, according to the government’s own figures. On Tuesday, the UN Office for Human Rights condemned the practice and told the U.S. to halt immediately. William Brangham reports that these separations are happening in large part due to Attorney General Jeff Sessions' Zero Tolerance policy.
"Asylum seekers are being ‘afflicted by our own government,’ Sen. Merkley says" PBS NewsHour 6/5/2018
IMHO: The description of the "holding" cells sound exactly like Nazi Concentration Camps. Is this what the U.S. has become? Is this what you want?
Excerpt
SUMMARY: Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley visited a migrant processing center in Texas on Sunday where children, either unaccompanied or separated from their families at the border, were being held in what he described as large cages. The Oregon senator joins Judy Woodruff to discuss the conditions he observed.
