  DOJ should throw kidnapping charges onto the pile of Trump crimes.
context: The department pledged to continue the work until all separated families that can be found have the opportunity to reunite with their children. In 30 years from now we will be seeing documentaries about children who suffered permanent psychological damage at the hands of Trumps administration. People will be shocked to learn that the U.S. government focible took these peoples children and intentionally separated them to be cruel. >
  
  The people who supported it will pretend they never knew anything about it and act shocked and disgusted. >
  
  They already are claiming this did not happen or Obama did it or some other nonsense. Let me clear: Trump instituted a policy to forcibly separate children (including infants) from their legal asylum-seekng parents at the border. He did this to be cruel and scare people from coming. His minions then forgot to keep records of who the kids were. >
  
  I'd only argue with "forgot." They intentionally didn't keep records so as to make it as difficult as possible to reunite these families. The cruelty was the point. In fact, they outright declared that they were doing this to try to dissuade people from coming to America. "Try to seek asylum in America and we'll separate you from your kids who you'll never see again!" >
  
  "The laws are the laws" = dead giveaway for a fascist.  The law is there to serve the people.  If it's not serving them, it should be changed. >
  
  What really gives away the game is politicians supporting and pushing through laws that do not have majority public support - anti-marijuana and abortion come to mind. Also the use of propaganda to try to affect levels of support for certain things. >
  
  A piece of legislation is almost always guaranteed to fail if it polls extremely popular with Americans on all sides. It's really sad... >
  
  Yep, like “80% of Americans support this” and they’re uh… “oh but some discredited propaganda bullshit”. Really gives away who they are truly working for. >
  
  No, they'll have their "experts" testify that they're correct.  Then you find out the "expert" talking about MJ legalization is a LEO and the "expert" talking about abortion is a religious leader. >
  
  The people who did this belong on trail for crimes against humanity at the Hague.
  Actual consequences?  Fuckin' crickets as usual. >
  
  Reminder that under Bush the US granted itself permission to invade The Hague If an American citizen should ever be tried there. >
  
  We should send Bush to be tried there. >
  
  Trump and his henchmen should be charged for these crimes.  Of all of Trump's crimes, I think the concentration camps for immigrants and separating immigrants from their children were among the worst.  We have to punish them or this will happen again next time they have the presidency. >
  
  America doesn't punish Republican crimes.

  It starts at least with the Watergate. GWB never answered to war crimes or to lying to start a war. And Trump pardon the only person charged in the Valery Plane affair. >
  
  Didn't Nixon interfere with the peace process in Vietnam, extending the war so his opponent wouldn't get a win right before the election? >
  
  Yep. >

  This program of separating parents from their children without documentation is going to be remembered in the same way we talk about the Syphilis Study at Tuskegee. Except that was the 1930s.
  One of these days some of those kids are going to take their pound of flesh out of the United States either legally or violently, and they'll have right on their side. >
  
  nah, the fascists will have rewritten history in the US by then.  Our kids will never learn about any of it unless we move. >
  
  President Ron Desantis III will remove it from the national curriculum. >
  
  Probably in a governor position he would still have that power >
  
  Never forget this was a crime against humanity. Conservatives supported it. Even your so called “moderate conservative friends”
  If it had been your kid they wouldn’t give a fuck.
  In 20 years people will call it a stain on our nation. But the sociopaths who enabled it are here right now. >
  
  The sociopaths who enabled it are in a very good position to seize absolute control of our country, too. >
  
  Don’t forget that it’s the trump supporters that empowered the sociopaths. >
  
  It boggles my mind how there isn't a bigger deal made of this. They stole kids from their parents. Any time it pops into my head, I'm infuriated. In a just world, Trump and his administration would be harshly punished. >
  
  Seriously. It is crime against HUMANITY
