This happened on Obama’s watch, before Drumpf even announced his candidacy for POTUS.
Do you remember media and politicians gnashing about it, crying on TV, and claiming the Gestapo was running Amerikkka? No? Me neither. But never forget, Drumpf is uniquely awful.

Yes, I believe you have mentioned that already

Time magazine published a cover story with pic of small girl crying, Photoshopped to make her look like she’s confronting Drumpf.
Didn’t take a day for border agents and the father of the child to tell reporters the child was NEVER separated from her parents; she was crying ‘cos, well, as anybody who has children would know, sometimes little kids cry for the dumbest reasons imaginable.

My response to this Time front cover furore is a big fat 'so what'?
The picture was trying to portray a real 'issue'' , the fact the child wasn't separated isnt really that relevant. The underlying point the left wing media is trying to make is still the same.
The only real impact that the new facts show is that it gives Trump supporters something to latch on to as a counter narrative, and it will be very effective.The whole child seperation thing has been a left wing political beat up, and the response is going to a right wing beat up. It is a battle of dishonest narratives.

If one was very cynical you could argue that the Democrats wouldn't give two fucks if this wasnt a future and vital voter base. I hope that isn't true, but who knows with these morally corrupt pigs.

Interesting interview with a Border Patrol agent here, he must see some awful stuff every day. That's one hell of a job.

The delightful Seth Rogan has such Republican Derangement Syndrome that even young fans have to suffer for the perceived grievous sins of their father. What a prize fuckwit.

GOP/RNC just dropped a new TV ad this past half-hour featuring Maxine and some of her liberal Hollywood friends titled “UNHINGED” and it’s awesome.

@salacious-crumb
Nicely done but there is so much additional footage that could be added they could actually make a feature length movie without skimping on the quality of unhingedness. -

@jegga "She also called for tuition-free college and a universal-jobs guarantee, under which the federal government would provide a job for every American."
Hahaha. And the divide keeps getting wider.
And open borders too.

This is the New Democrat congresswomen New York. She beat a billionaire who outspent her 10-1 , putting aside her attributes that appeal to the superficial male such as myself her policies make Corbyn look thatcheresque . This is not good news for dems.
She's batshit that's for sure. Seems as though this is pushback against the right wing pushback against all the lefty bollocks. Doubling down I think it's called. We had a similar situation in the UK during the 80s when successive Labour oppositions got more and more loony left as a pushback against Thatcher and became unelectable. Eventually Blair re-invented Labour and got them into power.
