NEW Report on Trump Administration Family Separation Policy

Family separation policy was “driven by an Administration that was willfully blind to its cruelty and determined to go to unthinkable extremes to deliver on political promises…”

1. This seems significant

An administration that is willfully blind to its own cruelty and going to unthinkable extremes (i.e., crimes against humanity). And this report will be gone like a fart in a frying pan.

3. Looking forward to the Trump Family Separation

...as they are all placed in separate Federal facilities.

4. Works for me.

Just add hard labor.

7. You beat me to the punch.

In a few days, "Trump Administration Family Separation Policy" could take on a whole new meaning.

12. take ivankas kids and place them in foster care.....

Or let one of the families who can't locate children adopt them.

Said for shock value only. I don't want to see any kids ripped from families (unless it is for their safety), no matter how despicable those families may be.

14. Yes, Indeed

That is what I am hoping to see in the future as well.

5. Willfully blind?

That's rather soft language.

I am talking about another motivation.

How about demonstrably and intentionally cruel? Have they considered that smelly rat behind the polices, Steven Miller? Visions of decrepit, dark concentration camps probably dance in his head as some form of revenge for something he experienced once upon a time.

Miller has found a place in this Adminstration where Nazi dreams come true.

6. Wasn't this one of the items "Anonymous" Miles Taylor was working on at DHS?

[Hugin]

8. Yeah, he was softening it from Trump's worst impulses.

Allegedly.

Rumor has it.

Some say.

[JI7]

9. I don't think they were blind to the cruelty

I think that's what they liked about it.

[Hugin]

10. Wasn't it said that "cruelty was the point"?

I think I remember that as a selling point.

[bucolic_frolic]

13. Yes, a deterrent

People would stop coming to the US if we seized their children. That was the whole point.

[Hortensis]

19. Yes. Blind, hell. Cruelty was the object.

Terrifying parents Into not coming the goal.

However, this unspeakable cruelty was also depraved people, their leader famously enjoying vicious cruelty, persecuting the most vulnerable group available to them.

So far. We’ve seen what these people are capable of before.

[bucolic_frolic]

11. That's a kind take on it, they're lucky I'm not a judge

These are crimes against children, for God's sake!

The decision-maker deserves life in prison.

15. The administration knew they couldn't track separated families, but did it anyway

From the Medium article:

— In July 2017, without warning, the Administration implemented a family separation pilot program in the El Paso Border Patrol Sector. The pilot program lasted five months and resulted in hundreds of additional children being taken from their parents and placed in ORR custody.

— During the pilot program, the Administration discovered that it was unable to track separated family members in a way that would facilitate eventual reunification.

— Knowing this, and without doing anything to address the tracking systems employed by federal agencies, the Administration chose to expand the policy nationwide in May 2018.

They knew. It wasn’t by mistake or incompetence, no. The atrocities were done on purpose, and that is a crime against humanity.
