What are we doing? >> i mean, to quote adam, the cruelty is the point. we are to go back to the rally, you have huge groups of people chanting, you know, send her back. this idea that america is a country that is not open that, is not willing to have any form of asylum. thats the other terrifying thing. its not just these horrible conditions. its that the trump administration wants to essentially end asylum as we know it. take almost no refugees. its horrifying. not since america turned away jui...

When youre warehousing children in those conditions, its not surprising we have six children who have died. some of the pictures youre seeing are of those children. i met with a mother last week. ms. juarez, whose daughter died in these horrific conditions. the daughter and the mother were placed in what i.c.e. calls an ice box. for three weeks she pleaded with doctors to give her doctor the care she needed. they wrote it off as an ear infection and she died of a viral infection. and the conditi...

To honduras, to el salvador that explicitly tried to train law enforcement to be much safer, to actually uproot corruption and address the issues of gangs. you cant have it both ways. you cant say you are going to make your country less safe but at the same time not abide by our own asylum laws when in fact anybody that the moment someone steps foot in our country they can legally ask for asylum. are we processing these individuals fast enough? no. lets get to the root of the problem. the presid...

>> whats the company? >> burn -- cal auburn. you know the former chief of staff john kelly is on the board there. $775 per head per day and they go out in shackles. >> all right. thank you so much. >> that is what we need to be focused on and thank you so much for bringing it to light. >> thank you very much. >> thats incredible. coming up political sabotage by tweet. >> new reporting shows that president trump hurt someone by his tweet. >> while we hear from some democrats in washington, d.c....

Many other colleagues and he said we came to bear witness and what we witnessed was warehousing of children for profit. the final thing they showed us which was stunning to me, they showed us a room which was like an air traffic control room and they were bragging frankly about following these travelers very different travelers. little children. they showed us one large screen which was tracking the last 14 days of the childrens minority. meaning when they were aging out. and it showed the day t...

Ever been given consideration in the house. thats my feeling about it. >> congressman, given that youre there in a border state of texas, im curious whats been the response from your constituents and the extent to which theyre worried about this. >> well, very concerned. i spoke last evening at the texas state capitol to a crowd of hundreds. part of the life for liberty vigils that were held all across america. my staff was in san antonio for the same and in washington. i think people realize th...

Overcrowding, we saw the same pictures back to the room in 2014 in the obama administration, but we are paying $775 per kid per day in government funding to these detention centers that are making money as they do not give out toothpaste and freshwater, and that is child abuse. the parents can handle it, but the little kids cant. that has to be fixed immediately. speeone coggeshall and alexandra garcia cortez with her four plus million twitter followers says she saw people drinking out of toilet...

A cost of $775 per head per day. so its sadly perversely profit-making location and that is not to say there arent terrific people of good will trying to help these children. but there is a perverse incentive to hold on to them and to my mind to sanity -- sanitize what we saw. we saw one dormitory, neatly made up and not a personal item and when joanna hayes and i decided to go off course to find another dormitory room they didnt want us to do that and we did any way and they did look differentl...

Welcome back to "hardball." there were more expressions of outrage today as a congressional delegation toured the nations largest unaccompanied minor detention facility down in home steady, florida. lets watch. >> when you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have to say something. taxpayers are paying $775 per day per child for people to be held in these situations. >> what is it going to take to comply with the law, have these children reunited with their sponsors, their fa...

Affirmative that they would give coverage, health care coverage to people who came here illegally. and the democrats no question are pushing, prioritizing immigrant rights in a way that is out of step with the mainstream of the country. the mainstream of the country does not want government-funded child abuse which is what is happening at the hands of the government in these private detention facilities where were spending $775 per day per kid for them to have no toothpaste, no soap, not enough ...
