DHS Nielsen Tells Migrants They Cannot Leave Their Children in the U.S.

Immigration officials have begun telling illegal migrants they must take their children home, following the decision by 100 migrants to leave their children in the United States.
“All of these adults who left [the United States] without their kids, left based on a decision to leave their children,” Homeland Security secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said July 18 in an interview at the Aspen Security Forum. “So now we’re saying to them, ‘No, no, no, you have to take the children.’”
At least one Central American country wants the power to decide if the separated children should live in the United States, Nielsen said:
We have to involve the other countries. You know, one of the Northern Triangle countries when I just met with them, said to me, ‘It’s not appropriate for DHS or the United States government to determine what’s in the best interest of the [migrant’s] child. We in our courts will determine what’s in the best interest of the child.’ So it’s very complicated.
The decisions by more than 100 migrants to separate themselves from their children is undermining the political claims by many progressives and Democrats that President Donald Trump is willfully separating families to frighten and deter migrants from crossing the border.

Breitbart, again. How utterly disgusting to see these endless links. Truth is the biggest casualty these days.

Anyway, what a stinkin mess Sessions, Trump, Kelly and Miller created with these poor families. It would be comical if it were not so inhumane, and there weren't so much needless anguish and suffering.

The heartlessness is beyond my ability to comprehend.
