The Attorney General outlined a "zero-tolerance" policy last month and other members of the administration have described family separations as a "deterrent." Period. https://t.co/tbQlbmkquq

We are increasing the pressure to stop family separation and the Trump administration is feeling it. That's why they're deflecting and lying about what they are actually doing.
We can't afford to think about not winning this fight, because the lives of children are at stake. pic.twitter.com/282FZRwA1Z

As journalists who deal in facts we have an obligation to say that this is a lie. https://t.co/zAeF4txwDD

Barron Trump is what, 11 or so? And Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ children, how old? When their parents obstruct justice or work with/for hostile powers, perhaps we could exercise zero-tolerance and remove their children to unknown locations under unknown conditions for indefinite durations for the sake of deterrence.
No, no we can’t. Because that would be unconscionable. As much as they may consider us “not even human”, it’s not something we take seriously. We can, however, enjoy a clear moral high ground. And take selfies from up here.
They boast about their ‘toughness’ out of one side of their mouths. And then whine: ‘look what you made me do’ like a classic wife-beater.
