We hear this week of the latest victim of the cold-hearted anti-refugee policies of the Republican administration. A seven-year-old child, found thirsty and hungry, was put in a truck and left there for almost eight hours. She died of dehydration.
Migrant children die of thirst because of Trump’s edict for ICE agents to destroy humanitarian supplies.
American Christian humanitarian churches have been leaving survival supplies, like water, along the paths frequented by lost refugees. The Republicans decided that life-saving water supplies should be found and destroyed, leaving the asylum-seeking refuges without water.
We can only wonder how our Border Control Agents and ICE patrols can destroy survival caches of water with such enthusiasm. Can they sleep at night? Do they dream of the children and other victims who will die of thirst because of this dastardly policy?
Someone needs to remind the Republicans that Jesus said
“Suffer the little children”, not “make the children suffer”.
I wonder if they will get water in their hour of need?
What’s the opposite of a “Good Samaritan”?
