I was one of the reporters Trump said he "brought" to see family separations. He, and he alone, systematically separated thousands of children -- "torture" per @P4HR and "government sanctioned child abuse" per @AmerAcadPeds after they were warned it would damage kids for life.
Trump never answered @kwelkernbc's question about how he'll reunite them because he doesn't have a plan. Worse, right now they couldn't if they wanted to. They cannot be reached, because their record keeping was so shoddy.
This was the day I went on the tour of the facility Trump was talking about. Father’s Day 2018. Kids weren’t “well taken care of” they were locked up after being taken. Yes, facility was built by Obama admin, but the separation policy was uniquely Trump.
