John Oliver Rips Trump Administration for Biblical Justification of Family Separation Policy (Mediaite)

On Sunday, John Oliver joined the long line of critics of the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy of separating children from their parents at the border.

Oliver pointed out that the policy was instated by Attorney General and “least fun thing to find in a Kinder egg” Jeff Sessions, saying it was “objectively awful.”

“I cannot stress this enough. There is no law that suddenly required separating parents from their children,” Oliver explained. “This was the result of a deliberate policy choice by Jeff Sessions, a man so small he can wear – and this is true – a raspberry as a hat. That’s a fact.”
