Hillary Clinton weighed in Monday morning on the ongoing controversy regarding the Trump administration’s "no-tolerance” border policy, suggesting that Jesus would not condone the actions of the American border authorities.
At an awards lunch for the Women’s Forum of New York, the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee called out “those who selectively use the Bible” to give grounds for the separations, which were reported by the Department of Justice on Friday.
“I went to a lot of years of Sunday school — even taught it from time to time. I’ve studied both the Old and New Testament, and what is being done using the name of religion is contrary to everything I was ever taught," Clinton said. "Jesus said, ‘Suffer the little children unto me.’ He did not say, ‘Let the children suffer.’”
Clinton’s comments appear to be in response to Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ invoking scripture last Thursday in response to criticisms from various Christian groups, as well as well-known evangelical leader Rev. Franklin Graham.
“Persons who violate the law of our nation are subject to prosecution,” Sessions said. “I would cite you to the Apostle Paul and his clear and wise command in Romans 13 to obey the laws of the government because God has ordained the government for his purposes.”
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders backed up Sessions’ remarks during a later press briefing, in which she told CNN’s Jim Acosta that it is “very biblical to enforce the law.”

I bet the pages are all stuck together too.
George and Satan.
Trump is doing a great job of getting these people to expose their true agenda. Both Democrats and people who run as Republicans then vote with the DRats.
Bullcrap.
How about her laughing while she got a rapist off, and then ignored her own husband with his women.
Watched it, and I said to my wife these scumbags are not listening to the briefing. They have their narrative, and now arguing with her. Their job is supposed to report what the briefing has been said.
lol when the left is turning to Jesus... you KNOW they are desperate!
ROFL
Satan uses scripture too.
Do I have to heave from every useless, insufferable ass in America?
We can launch Hillary, Jeb, Mitt, Laura, the kids and their families into space with a giant catapult so they can all live happily ever after for the next five seconds for all I care.

Surely he has written a file memo on it?
Mueller can subpoena it!

Especially song of solomon...
NOW, this grotesque creature is claiming to have occasionally taught Sunday school???? Is this verifiable at all? Hey Hillary, there is a commandment against lying, and another against adultery...you should let your “husband” know about both! /s
He did not say, ‘Let the children suffer.’”
Does this apply to Haitian earthquake victim children?

Good post!!!!!
Wonder who does Hillary’s bible research? Surely, if she touches it it will burn her hands.
What did he say?
This from a woman who believes it is alright to kill the child as it is leaving the womb.
Jesus didn’t say let the children grow up without parents because you had the parents killed, either.
