MSNBC: More Former First Ladies Speak Out Against Trump Separation Policy

EXCERPT:

BRZEZINSKI: “Well, former First Ladies are joining the chorus of people speaking out against the separation of parents and children at the U.S./Mexico border. Rosalynn Carter released a statement saying, 'The practice and policy today of removing children from their parents’ care at our border with Mexico is disgraceful and a shame to our country.' Laura Bush, who lives in a border state, wrote an op-ed, we repeatedly mentioned it yesterday, she said, 'I appreciate the need to enforce and protect our international boundaries, but this zero tolerance policy is cruel. It is immoral. And it breaks my heart.' Michelle Obama tweeted out Laura Bush’s column adding, 'Sometimes truth transcends party.' I think that might be where we’re at today. We’re going to have to ask Democrats and Republicans whether they want to be with truth or party. Especially Republicans. And at an event in New York City yesterday, Hillary Clinton harshly criticized her political rivals’ zero tolerance policy. She gave her own interpretation of a Bible verse related to the suffering of migrant children at the border."
