Samantha Bee MOCKS Trump's Exec Order, Claims Mommy And Me Jails Aren't A Solution

“Yay! No more baby interment camps, just regular internment camps… Cool! That’s what we call a win in 2018,” Bee exclaimed. “To be clear, I am happy that at least these kids are theoretically are gonna stay with their parents, but Mommy & Me Jails are not a solution.”

The Full Frontal host said that we’ve “tried the family detention thing before” and that it was “very not good.” She then invoked the 1997 Flores settlement which forbade the incarceration of migrant children longer than 20 days and expressed doubt that anyone in Congress will have better solutions.

“Baby Jails are the worst possible thing, but Mommy & Me Jails are a close second,” Bee continued. “Any solution to this problem has to start from the premise that children should not go to jail. I know, I know. I’m such a radical leftist.”

She then took a moment to mock those who were too hesitant to describe the detention centers migrant children were placed in as “cages.”
