White House Spox Hogan Gidley: Claim Families Are Being Separated at Border is 'Completely False'

[Soph0571]

In a truly stunning show of outright lying Monday morning, White House Deputy Press Secretary Hogan Gidley told Fox & Friends that the claim the Trump administration is separating children from their families at the border is “completely false.”

“Do you think that the message from the media is correct, that your administration is separating parents, moms and kids?” Fox & Friends host Brian Kilmeade asked.

“It is completely false,” Gidley replied.

-------------

Um, holy crap, that’s a glaring lie. There is clear evidence from the DHS that nearly 2000 children have been separated from their families at the border in six weeks’ time as a direct result of the “zero tolerance” policy instated by Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Despite Trump’s attempts to blame the other party for the policy in an effort to draw out immigration concessions, separating families at the border has nothing to do with Democrats.

You know that Fox viewers the land over are going to believe this complete bollocks? Right? And they are going to repeat this ad infinitum until it becomes 'fact'....

No Control over how the executive branch is handling this problem that my base actually loves and supports. Poor little me...

At least when Obama did something we Democrats liked OR NOT, he had big enough hands to OWN IT.

George Orwell, "1984"

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. His heart sank as he thought of the enormous power arrayed against him, the ease with which any Party intellectual would overthrow him in debate, the subtle arguments which he would not be able to understand, much less answer. And yet he was in the right! They were wrong and he was right.

11. Can't get their story straight

Kelly: We're looking at separating immigrant children from their parents as a deterrent.

Sessions: Our Zero Tolerance Policy means we'll separate families!

Trump: I hate locking up kids, but it's the Dems' law. Tell them to change the law!

SHS:It's biblical!

Conway: Nobody likes it but Dems started it!

Miller: It was a simple decision to do it.

Nielsen: What policy? There's no policy.
