Again this is the message: "There is no seeming consequence to the president and lies and it is going to have incredibly harmful consequences in the way that we operate going forward, based on the construct of the Founding Fathers,"
You can attack the messenger all you want but that doesn't make the message less true.

All four living former first ladies condemn Trump border policy
Hillary Clinton denounced the administration for citing the Bible in its defense, saying, "Jesus Christ said, 'Suffer the little children unto me' not 'let the little children suffer.'"
Meanwhile, Bush, who almost never speaks out on political issues, broke partisan ranks in a Washington Post op-ed.
“I live in a border state. I appreciate the need to enforce and protect our international boundaries, but this zero-tolerance policy is cruel. It is immoral. And it breaks my heart,” she wrote.
Rosalynn Carter called the policy of separating families "disgraceful and a shame to our country."
Michelle Obama also weighed in to support Bush.

Cruz Offers Bill to End Swamp Anguish Over Migrant Children

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has drafted a “Protect Kids and Parents Act” that would end the separation of migrant parents from their children and would offer emotional solace to the many Democrats, Hollywood figures and establishment GOP players who are urging that something be done.
“We can fix this,” Cruz said in a reassuring Monday statement, adding:
If my Democratic colleagues will join me, not play politics, but work to solve the problem, we can start to end family separation this week.
Cruz’s fix will ensure family unity by keeping migrant parents and their children in government centers until their legal cases are completed, and until they are either sent home or accepted into the United States:
While these cases are pending, families should stay together. Children belong with their mothers and fathers. Once their cases have been adjudicated — under my legislation, in no longer than 14 days — those who meet the legal standard should be granted asylum and those who don’t should be immediately returned to their home country.
Cruz’s measure is very different from California’s Sen. Diane Feinstein’s “Keep Families Together Act,” which would bar law-enforcement officials from detaining migrants who bring children northwards. The draft bill says:
An agent or officer of a designated agency shall be prohibited from removing a child from his or her parent or legal guardian, at or near the port of entry or within 100 miles of the border of the United States …
Federal officials would be unable to detain migrants because the current law bars them from detaining children.
So far, all 49 Democratic Senators have co-sponsored the Feinstein bill, which would allow millions of young men and women easy access to the U.S. job market, providing they also bring a child. Many of the manual jobs they seek would provide cheap services to upper-income Americans, such as D.C. professionals. Those services include bussing restaurant tables, dry-cleaning clothes, mowing lawns, and cleaning wine glasses.
Most of the migrants will work long hours at wages far lower than those needed by blue-collar Americans, partly because many of the migrants are in bondage debt to the violent cartels who let them pass through their border territory. Nationwide, roughly 8 million illegals immigrants -plus roughly 400,000 Central Americans who have filed for asylum — are already helping to hold down blue-collar wages.
The Feinstein legislation would likely shut down the centers created by the border agencies to shelter children while their parents go through the court system. Those shelters have been likely to Nazi concentration camps by many progressive, but appear markedly different:
Cruz’s fix may be welcomed by Laura Bush, Gov. Jeb Bush and other Republicans who demanded that something be done.
Few of the GOP leaders have described what they want to be done.
“In 2018, can we not as a nation find a kinder, more compassionate and more moral answer to this current crisis?” Laura Bush wrote in a Washington Post op-ed. “I, for one, believe we can

Sen. McCain Flip-Flops on ‘Zero Tolerance,’ Now Urges Zero Enforcement

Sen. John McCain has joined the elite push to minimize enforcement of border laws and is calling the President to stop detaining migrants who bring children northwards.
McCain’s call to end enforcement came via a Tweet:
If federal border officials are denied the power to separate migrant parents from accompanying children, they will not be able to enforce immigration laws and unable to detain adult migrants as they move towards cheap-labor jobs in Democratic-dominated urban centers.
The denial would also mean that they cannot stop foreigners from enrolling their children in Americans’ schools — although few migrants will be able to register their children for schools in upper-income districts.
This easy migration policy is another flip by McCain, whose rhetoric was far different from his repeated advocacy for amnesty in Congress. In 2015, one year after he pushed for a huge “Gang of Eight” amnesty that would have legalized 30 million people in just ten years, and one year before his next election in 2016, he introduced a Resolution to be voted on by the Senate urging the restoration of a zero-tolerance border policy.
The 2015 resolution was submitted to the Senate to endorse “Operation Streamline” which prosecuted all migrants coming across the border in their home state. The program was so successful that President Barack Obama closed it down.
The Streamline program did not have to deal with migrants’ children because few migrants brought children into the zero-tolerance district.
RESOLUTION
To express the sense of the Senate regarding the success of Operation Streamline and the importance of prosecuting first time illegal border crossers.
Whereas the Border Patrol’s Yuma Sector has long grappled with the crossing of undocumented aliens and has seen illegal traffic decline precipitously from the early 2000s to the present …
…
Whereas a key to the success in the Yuma Sector has been the implementation of Operation Streamline, a program established in 2005 that was described by former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano as ‘‘a DHS partnership with the Department of Justice, . . . a geographically focused operation that aims to increase the consequences for illegally crossing the border by criminally prosecuting illegal border-crossers.’’;
Whereas known for its ‘‘zero-tolerance’’ approach, the Yuma County Sheriff’s Office cites 100 percent prosecution of illegal border crossers as a shared goal of a partnership including Federal, State, and local law enforcement agencies;
…
Now, therefore, be it 1 Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that—
…
(4) the Executive Branch should immediately remove any issued or related prohibition, policy, guidance, or direction to cease prosecuting first time illegal border crossers under Operation Streamline.
In a press statement, McCain declared:
WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Sens. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.), today introduced S. Res. 104, legislation expressing the sense of the Senate regarding Operation Streamline, a program that has seen success in reducing recidivism among illegal border crossers. The resolution, which is co-sponsored by U.S. Sens. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.), also calls on the Obama administration to immediately remove any directives or policies that would bar the prosecutions of first-time border crossers under this program.
Operation Streamline is a joint initiative administered by the departments of Homeland Security and Justice. In place since 2005, the program has been associated with a zero-tolerance approach, including criminally prosecuting illegal border crossers. It has been effective in the Border Patrol’s Yuma, Ariz., sector, with apprehensions dropping from 140,000 in 2005 – the year Operation Streamline was implemented – to less than 6,000 in 2014. By comparison, the Tucson sector, experienced more than 87,000 illegal crossings last year.
…
“Arizona’s Yuma Sector has gone from being one of the busiest sectors for illegal immigration in the U.S. to one of the most secure thanks to the stepped-up efforts of our law enforcement officials under Operation Streamline,” said McCain. “Despite this success, the Obama administration continues to scale back important progress by ceasing to prosecute illegal border crossers. The citizens of Arizona cannot afford to lose the gains that have been made to secure the southern border, and I will not stop fighting to ensure that we have the best policies in place to keep our communities safe.”
McCain also opposes President Donald Trump’s border wall, even though McCain ran for re-election in 2016 with a catchphrase, “Complete the danged fence”:
