Talking about the ICE arrests in Mississippi. First thing the anchor says "terrified children" being separated from their children. Was CBS talking about ICE raids when it was done under Obama? Did they give a shite then?

If the parents wouldn’t come here illegally, they’d never risk being separated from their children.

Children cry every single day in America when their parents are arrested.

Why is this particular instance noteworthy?

It was also the "I can't believe this is happening" tone in the anchor

When you break the law and are arrested you are separated from your children. That's how it has been since the beginning of time.


The lengths these people will go to "get" Trump really is incredible to watch

The real responsibility falls squarely on the illegal immigrant parents for making the decision to cross the Rio Grande - and taking their children with them. And don't tell me they didn't know about the perils of doing so beforehand.

I remember when anti-Trump people flipped out when Sinclair bought a bunch of news networks and promised more varied news coverage. Yet here we are.

NPR had a kid bawling on the radio. Must have been in the morning email from the DNC.

I know I sound like a broken record, but this is meant to appeal to the emotions of suburban white women and drive them into the arms of the Democrats.

I haven't watched network evening news in years.

It nauseated me when Obama walked on water every night and it's equally bad anti Trump garbage now.

No way in hell I'm exposing my wife and kids to that.

She'll see crying kids and it will take me an hour to set the back story and deprogram her.

frick these intentionally dishonest network shitholes.
