    Those wails and sobs are from 10 Central American children inside of a detention center last week after being forcefully separated from their parents. Listen to them scream out "Mami" & "Papa" These are babies.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/1008805084979912704 …

    Here, for the first time, we hear the audible wailing & crying of detained children that have been forcefully separated from their parents at the US/Mexico border. This is an awful human rights catastrophe from Trump.

        I don't think I've ever hated anything in my life, not truly, anyway, but I firmly believe I hate Donald Trump and everything his administration has done thus far. Enough is enough. We need to end the unethical treatment of these people. Desperately.

        I know, and to make matters worse, the people we have in place to stop this are so unbelievably cowardly. It truly hurts my heart.

        That border patrol agent who is mocking these children’s cries as an “orchestra” should be buried under the sea.

        If people tolerate this they will tolerate anything. Claiming asylum is not illegal, child abuse is. You don't have to be a parent to be torn apart listening to these children's cries, just a human being with compassion. Please American friends, take to the streets. End this NOW.

        And that border patrol officer we hear, cruelly and callously making fun of these innocent kids agonizing cries, is no better than an MS13 gang member. #InhumaneSoullessEvil #KarmaWillKickHisAss #Bigly

        Where are the protests for this? Where are the Democrats and Republicans whi appose this? This is terrible, inhumane and cruel. No child deserves this especially not a child whose parents are chasing the American Dream.
