Nearly two months into a monstrous federal policy which separates migrant parents from their children at the southern border, the Department of Homeland Security announced it has now placed 2,000 children in facilities across the country.

Days after his inauguration, Donald Trump issued an executive order banning travel from seven Muslim-majority countries.
