      12 GOP senators, led by Orrin Hatch, have just sent a letter to AG Jeff Sessions calling for a halt to the family separations at the border (There are 51 GOP senators in all, and Hatch has shopped the letter to colleagues all day for possible signatures.)pic.twitter.com/OLuO4HReLk

          Hey @tedcruz, did something in this letter make you queasy and unable to sign on with it? I suspect @BetoORourke would have been all over it had he been asked...

          Let's not forget @SenJohnMcCain who is all-talk-no-action. He revels in sounding like an elder statesman but he supports this Republican shitshow 100% with his actions and votes. He is one despicable and deceitful man.

          What happened to Flake and Sasse? Didn’t they write some eloquent words on how wrong this atrocity is?

          I think I read a tweet earlier saying his office was working on an opposition policy to the separations. Color me impressed.

          I wrote both Inhofe and Lankford a letter this morning, I’m shocked he signed. Not shocked Inhofe hasn’t.

          The letter is nice, but why don’t they just sign S3036?
