Psaki Blames Trump ‘Kicking Children out’ for the Border Crisis

‘We believe that policy was inhumane’

EXCERPT:

PSAKI: “As the secretary said, this is a message we are conveying with every opportunity, from the president, the vice president, from officials in the region, and we are doing that with the full support, of course, of the Department of Homeland Security and resources that we have available. I will say that the big difference which we certainly understand the outcome may be an influx as we have seen of more children. If you were kicking children out, there is naturally by design, I'm not mathematician, but going to be more children who come in because we believe that policy was inhumane. And we believe that children who are under the age of 18 should be treated with humanity and provided safety while we consider the process is moving forward. So we certainly have a different approach.”
