I'm sorry to say, but there's a lot of timidity that needs to be gone by week's end. Trump isn't doing this in a vacuum. People with power are letting this be done.

Let's revive Stop and Frisk in New York. Let's stop and frisk any federal agent doing the bidding of ICE on our turf.
The authority of the federal government doesn't have to be honored when it is an immoral authority. Anymore than those Selma cops with dogs needed to be honored.

John Lewis says, Cause good trouble. I say, Cause a good constitutional crisis.
This is the time for states and localities to openly defy the federal government, which has shown itself to be in violation of human rights and the Constitution, and to have authoritarian tendencies.

Mayors and governors, do more now.
Why can't you close the roads around ICE facilities and others involved in this barbarism? Don't let their employees get to work. Say you're concerned the facility is being used unconstitutionally and for child abuse. Get sued. Fight it.

I'm a New Yorker. I think most of my fellow New Yorkers would agree that any separated child brought here must have a right to contact their parent daily -- at a minimum. Must come with clear data on where their family is. @NYGovCuomo @BilldeBlasio, your move.

White House correspondents: Please ask in the briefing today whether every child and parent has been given a bracelet. If not, why not? What is their plan for reuniting an eight-month-old with a parent? How exactly would they do it?

It's time for some bravery. It's time for doing more than calling your senator.

When my children were born, they gave them bracelets and gave my wife and I bracelets, which linked us. If the government is not doing for these children what is standard practice in every public hospital, this is state terrorism. Deterrence of immigration through willful abuse.

These children are now being flown all over America.
Every governor should, right now, sign an executive order requiring that any child so brought into the state has clear paperwork connecting them to a parent, with the parent's whereabouts, and an ability to contact the parent.

This is astonishing footage of what @NY1 reports may be children separated at the border being smuggled around New York with black fabric over their heads. twitter.com/NY1/status/100…

Pope Francis criticizes Trump’s family-separation policy: "I believe that you cannot reject people who arrive. You have to receive them, help them, look after them...Populism does not resolve things. What resolves things is acceptance, study, prudence." wapo.st/2tnQnjw?tid=ss…

When Trump said barbaric things, we were told not to take him literally.
When he started making barbaric policy, we were told the courts and other bodies would save us.
Now there are camps. Camps.
Everyone hug an alarmist today. And let's save our country's soul.

Donald Trump is building a gulag archipelago of kids, some too young to stand or speak, many doomed never to see their family again. twitter.com/joyannreid/sta…
