Dem plays audio from child detention center on Senate floor
The Hill ^ | June 19, 2018

Posted on 06/19/2018 4:52:09 PM PDT by SMGFan

Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) played audio obtained from inside a facility used to detain migrant children separated from their families during a speech on the Senate floor Tuesday.

"They say a picture is worth a thousand words. But the audio released yesterday ... is worth a million tears. How do you submit the cries of innocent children to the congressional record? I don't know how you do that, but you can hear it," Menendez said before playing the audio.

The audio, obtained by ProPublica, includes workers trying to gather information from children as they cry out for family members. The conversations are conducted Spanish but children can be heard in the recording asking for their "papa."

Mommy, Mommy I don’t want to go to school.

Son, you are now five years old. I must by law send you to school.

Probably sounded a lot like the young girls he raped on his trips to the Dominican Republic.

Some of those children could be crying for parents who are still in their home countries. If only there were instant DNA tests.

Why didn’t they play the same thing during the 0bama regime? Or Bush? They started the separation of kids.

OMG! Children sometimes cry. OMG the fences! Almost every school and day care center in America have fences. I was fenced in when I was a kid going to school. If I tried to escape the nuns would let me have it with a ruler. Enough of this caca.

He should have played the audio of the crying and sobbing under-age girls he had sex with.

I heard that when they first trotted out this tactic, they had kids crying for their mothers and fathers in English. Did they get some Spanish language frauds yet?

No one is talking about the Unaccompanied minors sent here by their parents. That is a significant percentage. (I heard 80% but cannot find the source now) Anyone?

I just got unfriended on fb over this audio recording by I guy I have known for over thirty years and even worked for him as my manager for a couple of years. We even have similarly confusing last names which became a running joke between us and others due to our nicknames, Higgy and Hoppy. He was always a great guy to be around but now seems to be a bleeding heart Democrat from Detroit.

Just how long does it take to do a paternity DNA analysis? Does anyone know?

If the paternity fraud is high, it would be good to know and to quantify.

Good grief. Don’t they have rules on the Senate floor to prevent these theatrics? They are really trying to hide the damage that has come out in the IG report.

In addition to the doubtful veracity of the recordings - does anyone see a privacy issue? Photographing, video recording or audio recording minors without their consent?

Good point.

A former child protective services man said last night on the radio that the sound of wailing, crying children was the same for his many cases of criminal parents who abused and tortured their own children (!!) or just were caught for drug smuggling or dealing or armed robbery and so on . The kids cried despite the nature of their parents.

And kids could not be sent to prison with the folks or to overnight holding cells among drunks and addicts and perverts so they could be with their parents!

The protective service agents had to take them away to help them.

Under age five, children are always crying at the least insecurity. The parents are the ones responsible for the crying. If they don’t like it, they can take the kids and go back home.
