Grothman Compares Concentration Camps To 'Boarding Schools'
Everyone has seen the horrid, inhumane condition that immigrant children are being kept in in Trump's concentration camps on the border. We have seen how the children are being housed in dog kennels, not being given enough food and almost no medical attention. We have seen the reports that the children are being physically abused, where the girls are being raped and of the children dying because of the mistreatment they are put through at the hands of the border patrol. We've also seen the reports that there are thousands of children who have been taken from the loving arms of their parents and cannot be reunited with their parents.
Well, almost everyone.
Congresscritter Glenn Grothman (R-Wisconsin) claims to have been to these concentration camps, and in a newsletter to his constituents, paints a fanciful and completely unrealistic picture of what life is like for these children:
This week, at a House Oversight and Reform Committee hearing, I spoke with acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan about the state of unaccompanied minors at the border, the hardships they face getting to the border and the possibility of being kidnapped and sold by the cartels.
