    Nielsen is offering zero empathy in this briefing for the families being separated. Even was asked whether Trump feels compassion and dodged.

        .@aterkel Nielsen did not mean to dodge the question, she just did not know what "Compassion" meant...

        Remember...one has to first have feelings before being able to feel compassion. That's a no go for Trump and this administration.

        "The children are being used as a pawn to get Congress to act", paraphrasing @SecNielson.

        This Press Briefing is just straight up vile, propaganda from our Government. Secretary Nielsen fragile creditably is vanishing before our eyes!

        Which is exactly how much empathy we will offer her for the rest of her natural life, may it be blessedly short.

        I would probably say he expressed compassion when he claimed he didn’t want to separate families (and blamed the law) Nielsen, Miller and some of the others have been worse than him

        That lie from Trump wasn’t compassion. He’s an extortionist.

        Well I’m with you on his motives. But I would rather have him lie and acknowledge it’s wrong, then seeing Neilson and Miller argue it’s fine

        I would not be surprised if she quits her job soon. She doesn't have kids of her own ..... let's hope her conscience starts to wreak havoc on her.

        Not surprising. This is the same @SecNielsen who was crying at trumps state of the union and said it was “powerful” 🙄
