DOJ Not Acting Like Nazi Germany, Says Sessions
Source: The Daily Beast
Attorney General Jeff Sessions has rejected suggestions that the Justice Departments family-separation policy is reminiscent of Nazi Germany, saying the Nazis were trying to keep Jews from leaving. Sessions spoke to Fox News Laura Ingraham on Monday night and defended his agency amid widespread criticism of separations at the Mexican border. Sessions said comparisons of American camps to Adolf Hitlers Nazi camps werent fair because the Justice Department was trying to stop people from crossing the border, not trying to keep them in the U.S.. Its a real exaggeration, of course. In Nazi Germany, they were keeping the Jews from leaving the country, Sessions said. We need to think it through, be rational and thoughtful about it. We want to allow asylum for people who qualify for it, but people who want economic migration for their personal financial benefit, and what they think is their families benefit, is not a basis for a claim of asylum.

(23,097 posts)It's being Nazi like in the disdain and hatred for "the other". They don't evenn have plans for rejoining the family and lots of the children are lost in the system. WTF do they plan to do with them? it's so creepy and scary when they say they rejoin them, but it's a pure lie since they didn't even track them to begin with. Parents are sent back in 1-2 weeks, there are children that have been detained for months Nielsen just lied and lied.

I feel like I'm in a very bad episode of the Twilight Zone. A script that Rod Serling read two pages of and threw in the trash.

(8,200 posts)Tom Thump, the little tyrant Attorney General, is as bat shit crazy as his boss. He is just another in a long line of Southern racists. It is not hard to imagine what lies in store if they succeed in their pursued dream of the establishment of a Supreme Authoritarian Presidency. This has been their cherished dream for the last fifty years. They attempted this coup during the Bush administration with their Executive Unified theory until they got entangled in their lies that took us to war in Iraq. The epilogue in the history books may very well read "While they slept their children's heritage was stolen."

(6,549 posts)He knows very well what he and the administration are doing, we are just not suppose to recognize that. They are so stupid that they apparently think all Americans are even more stupid than they are. A message to Jeff Sessions: We see you! We see what you are doing! We know who you are! YOU ARE GOING DOWN, CREEP!!!

Keeping people in "tents" in El Paso, TX in the abject heat of summer, is approaching the creation of Beauregard Sessions Death Camps.

(62,521 posts)what a truly terrifying state of affairs when the AG of the United States has to make a statement like that.
we are that far down the rabbit hole.
if the current situation were occurring even 20 years ago and an AG made that same statement, he would have been thrown out of office.
but alas...here we are. Fucked.

(37,648 posts)You know they're in a bad place, when they have to try to explain the difference between them and their actions, and the Nazis.
Also, the Nazis didn't round up the Jews to keep them from leaving. They rounded them up to separate them from the "real" population of Germany, the "superior" people. They were fine with Jews leaving, but at one point, in order to get rid of them, in their eyes, they had to round up those that hadn't left.

Your an idiot Ingraham...................and to be paid money to ask that stupid question shows exactly whats going on here, you and your elf that lied in front of Congress are fucking Nazi's.
Then you have this fucking response, that makes no fucking sense................from this lying POS AG fucking asshole.....
SESSIONS: "It's a real exaggeration. In Nazi Germany, they were keeping the Jews from leaving the country but this is a serious matter."
His ending of his comment says everything about how fucking demented and pathological of hate he is and you are .
Do either of you fuckers realize that the one of the first things that your boy hero did, Hitler, was that he went after the economics of the Jewish population and anything else that was not of a Germanic heritage, this fucking comment shows that you are just like a Nazi:
" In Nazi Germany, they were keeping the Jews from leaving the country, Sessions said. We need to think it through, be rational and thoughtful about it. We want to allow asylum for people who qualify for it, but people who want economic migration for their personal financial benefit, and what they think is their families benefit, is not a basis for a claim of asylum."
They (Jews) and anyone else that could, were trying to get out of the countries in Europe, because, first they were under attack economically, because they were being blamed for taking away jobs and causing the population to be in a depression, are you that fucking stupid .
Nope, it was because they (Germany) had to pay of a war debt called World War I and they lost, then second, they (Nazi when they came to power) then wanted to just exterminate them and then blame homosexuals, gypsies, Jews, and anyone else that got in there way, and then the way you said the above fucking comment there you lying POS sounds like a Nazi propaganda remarks being led by a Joseph Goebbels propagandists with blonde fucking hair, to fucking normalize what is now happening at the US border, with reverse fucking psychology.
This airing should have your fucking operational organization disbanded from broadcasting -----------------forever ------------------and to have your fascist enabling corporation license to operate removed.........................this is not free speech anymore, never has been and never was..........................your both fucking terrorist and so is your organization
And then to add that these families are looking for personnel benefit.......................did you ask Melania if she and her family came here for personal benefit.......asshole.................when one came through on the what's called the Einstein Visa...............

(7,527 posts)Though, isn't that the net effect when children are separated then not reunited with the parents who are then deported?
They are filling the country with immigrant children...if they are lucky enough to be released to local relatives or kept in foster care.

(24,753 posts)Some of the first camps in Germany were . . . GASP . . . resettlement and deportation camps. In fact, that was their goal was to remove all those "undesirables" (or to put in words you and your ilk will understand, "undermenschen" ) from the German sphere of influence (their term) by any means necessary (as anyone who has studied the Wannsee Conference can attest).

Hav
(5,969 posts)I think you lost it when your only defense of being compared to Nazis is that they tried to keep them from leaving while we try to keep them from entering. It's bizarre because it's not a defense of actual acts or how you treat people is different to how Nazis treated people.

(18,124 posts)Sessions represents those who voted for the 'new Hitler, same as the old Hitler' who are now besieged by people of conscience and compassion.
This racist, fascist minority sub-group of the ruling class, so far, of the Caucasian race in america who created and continues to try to enforce this racist criterion for assumed/presumed american citizenship is designed to do precisely what it is currently doing to POC in america and the world the last 250-500 years, till now. And that is prosecuting heinous warfare on soldiers and civilian alike, both citizen here and created 'enemy'. Totally heartless while conducting and contributing to pain and misery on other dominant races and cultures and religions, predominantly POC.
Brown people!!!!, ohhhh hell!!!! We are being invaded by brown people!!!!!
I recently revisited a number that at the height of ameriKKKan slavery there were 4MILLION slaves. IF ameriKKKa never had slavery in it's not so distant past, then brown people would never have presented the racial dilemma that white racist now has in being challenged on the racial superiority BS spouted by wypipo.
And have no doubt, racist ideology is being challenged aggressively by POC and LIBERALS AND/OR PROGRESSIVE groups. I think that the consequences of brutally enforced ameriKKKan slavery on Africans, now americans, are the "chickens coming home to roost" that continues to pose a huge dilemma for the ameriKKKan ruling class people, then and now. They felt at that time that Africans could be controlled while in bondage.
The American Civil War scotched that assumption. Here we are in trumpland still divided and hating.....each other
