The Obama administration used these spaces to separate children from adult human traffickers not children from their own parents. They never had a zero tolerance policy. This is just a lie Republicans push to make themselves feel better about their cruelty.

Zero tolerance regardless of age is a Trump administration policy. Punishing infants and toddlers for the actions of their parents is inhumane. You don’t have to tear a baby away from its mom to enforce immigration laws. Traumatizing children to get to their parents is a Nazi move.

The Trump administration wrote cruelty to kids as standard US policy and would have happily continued to enforce it had the courts not stepped into. Trump supporters are absolutely complicit.
