US Attorney General Jeff Sessions and the policy of children parent separation
ADVERTISEMENT
During his career that lasted more than 30 years; first as a federal prosecutor and state attorney general, and second as a Senator, Jeff Sessions has been a major anti-immigrant force. Mr. Sessions came to believe that immigrants, whether legal or illegal, posed a direct threat to the US by depressing wages, committing crimes and taking advantages of welfare benefits.
Jeff Sessions believes a zero-tolerance policy in regard to immigrants. Powerful like never before, he is the driving force behind President Trump's policy to separate immigrant children from their parents.
Since October 2017, at least 2,700 children have been separated from their parents as the result of the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" policy aiming at reducing the number of undocumented people entering the United States.
"We cannot and will not encourage people to bring children by giving them blanket immunity from our laws,"
"There is no straying from that mission," he said.

No matter what they believe or try, the population shift is well underway and nothing can stop that.
Can you imagine a time when the current white majority in the US will not be in charge of the establishment?
The U.S. government has historically used the bible as a weapon, citing it as a means to dehumanize others or to justify atrocities committed in the name of God, country and morality.
