Rep. Jayapal: Reparations Should Be Paid to Families Separated at Border
2019-02-10
[Breitbart] Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) said on Friday that the United States government should pay reparations to families that were separated after they entered the United States legally or illegally and faced immigration proceedings.

Jayapal appeared on MSNBC to talk about her interaction with Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker during a House Judiciary hearing on Friday, where she asked him about family separations.

"Our country is still reeling from the horror of family separations that occurred at the border," Jayapal said ahead of questioning Whitaker.

Jayapal told MSNBC host Joy Reid that the separations are "a heinous crime that has been committed on thousands of children."

Jayapal slammed Whitaker for what she called a "dismissive" attitude and for saying that people have "a lot of passion" about children whose parents brought them to the border and an uncertain fate.

"This is an issue that I know there is a lot of passion about," Whitaker said. "I appreciate your passion."

"It’s something we share together," Whitaker said.

#6  Well charger, it seems you don’t know much about Indians. The vast majority of them lean left. Indian men are controlled by their wives or mothers, sometimes both. Basically they’re giant mommas boys. Indian women are calculating b*tches, more so than Western women. Oh yeah, they love them some OPM.

#2  I think all congress critters should be locked in OBAMA cages at the border until they finance the wall. Take a roll call vote and let each one out after they vote yes on a BINDING basis.
