(This caricature of Senator Warren is by DonkeyHotey.)Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) is one of the leading candidates for the Democratic Party presidential nomination -- and she has a warning for the criminals of the Trump administration. She says:
I’ve got a message for anyone in the Trump administration who needs to hear it:
When you physically abuse immigrants, sexually abuse immigrants, or refuse to provide them the medical care that they need, you break the law of the United States of America.
Donald Trump may be willing to look the other way.
But President Elizabeth Warren will not.
In a Warren administration, I’ll launch a task force in the Department of Justice to investigate the Trump administration’s criminal abuses at the border, and we’ll hold perpetrators accountable.
When people come here who are desperate — people who come here whose lives have been turned upside down, people who come here to try to build a better future — then we need to treat them with humanity, and we need to follow the law.
We’re going to fight against these human rights violations with everything that we’ve got. And we won’t ever back down.
