President Trump on Sunday defended his administration's immigration policies, which have led to the separation of migrant families, claiming "many are just using children for their own sinister purposes."

Trump has repeatedly used heated rhetoric to cast suspicion on immigrants, accusing them of trying to "infest" the U.S. and suggesting immigrants are causing Europe to "lose its culture."
Meanwhile, the Trump administration continues to face backlash over a "zero tolerance" immigration policy that led to the separation of thousands of migrant children from their parents. The policy called for any individual crossing the border to be arrested, leading to the separations.
A court-ordered deadline for the government to reunite the separated children came and went on Thursday, and hundreds of young migrants remained apart from their parents.
