He must allow parents to get their children back. Otherwise, Trump will be impeached. Stopping the procedure is not enough. Children must be reunited with their parents..It is that simple.

He probably still sees them as useful hostages in trying to get his wall.

for this? For making these kids instant orphans, kids they, when you get down to it, stole?

Every effort has to be made to get these families reunited whether the parents are still here in the US or already deported.

These people are out of their fucking minds if they think that is going stand.

We have to hang this around the neck of each repug candidate in the upcoming election campaign.
