![]() This photo was taken in 2014 of illegal alien detention under the Obama administration Liberals used the photo on social media, arguing that it was an example of Trump’s cruel policy, which is a verifiably false claim. Even the former speechwriter for Obama, Jon Favreau, tweeted a complete falsehood: “This is happening right now, and the only debate that matters is how we force our government to get these kids back to their families as fast as humanly possible.” Other liberal activists and journalists, Shaun King of Black Lives Matter, Linda Sarsour of the Women’s March, and Muslim activist Qasim Rashid also tweeted the Obama-era policy of keeping illegals in cages– purporting that it was Trump. I saw this photo floating around and didn’t know if it was real. It is. Children of immigrants are being held in cages, like dogs, at ICE detention centers, sleeping on the floor. It’s an abomination. Rashid specifically blamed Trump: The US Govt is holding migrant children in small cages like they are animals–just as 45 describes them. This is horrific. This is inhumane. This cannot stand. #ThisIsAmerica Twitter user Michael Pierce wrote to Mr. Rashid: “Welcome to 2014. I think I have a solid guess on how your selective outrage missed this then.” New York Times Magazine editor-in-chief Jake Silverstein and Lauren Wolfe, director of the Women’s Media Center Women Under Siege, were among the blue-checkmarked journalists who also spread the misinformation before apologizing. “I’m honestly lost as to why the Trump troll world has woken up tonight to lambaste me for posting a story that’s a few years old, by accident, & clarifying that once I discovered it. They’re vicious. It’s incredibly demoralizing that this is our public discourse,” Ms. Wolfe lamented. What’s incredibly demoralizing is that “journalists” would continue to not fact check and push out completely false information. https://thehayride.com/2018/07/did-y...gals-in-cages/ What do you make of that? ![]() |

How can you as an apparent mother talk this right and talk about Jamie Bulger ...This is not fake news...Trump admits to seperating these kids from their parents in fact he brags about it...jeez don't come on and rightfully acknoweldge what's happenng to children globally but then say it's cool if it happens to brown kids

As I understand it, there were not many kids under Obama, and it was pretty much just those suspected of being abused/trafficked, but still those living conditions are ****ing disgusting. |

the issue is not lessened or negated by a few fake photos. There were plenty genuine ones too.

I thought this was gonna be about the pictures which were actually taken at a leftie protest. But I guess some people will misappropriate any pictures to drive their agenda.

It's pointless to use stories like this to push a petty point because there are ***** on both sides misusing pictures to push their narratives. Back when the child seperation story was blowing up, there was a right wing story that used pictures of mexican children with toy guns to push the thought that they were wiolent thugs and deserving of the treatment but to use that article as an attack on the right is as pointless and tasteless to the situation of child separation as this thread and news article is.
