Obama's Child Detention Photos You Have Not Seen

 

In 2014, journalists were given a media tour of two Barack Obama administration detention facilities in Brownsville, Texas, and Nogales, Arizona. During that tour, pool photographers Eric Gay and Ross Franklin documented images of minors in holding facilities.

One of those photographs was used to create a viral social media firestorm claiming it was “children ripped from the arms of their parents by Donald Trump,” and comparing Trump to Hitler — even though the photo in question was taken when Obama was in charge.

There were no outrageous claims of “children ripped from the arms of their parents by Barack Obama!”

    America is starting to look like Saigon, circa late April 1975!

      Yes, lined up on the floor of DAO TSN. Sally Vinyard, the last American female to leave Vietnam stayed on processing them until the end. You'd love to meet her.

    Why don't you mention and point to the article? Which also says "47,000 UNACCOMPANIED children have crossed the border since October 1, 2013" and "CBP is required by law to turn over any migrant children to the Department of Health and Human Services within seventy-two hours of detaining them. Officials at the Nogales and Brownsville facilities told reporters they are struggling to meet this requirement."
