OPINION:
On a daily basis, America’s so-called “family courts” separate hundreds to thousands of children from their fathers without so much as a peep from the Democratic left — in fact, they created the separation laws. In contrast, the separation of illegal-immigrant children from their fathers (and mothers) is met with howls and screeches heard across the land (“Democrats in no rush to help Trump, GOP clean up family separation mess,” Web, June 19).
What this contrast should illustrate is that the Democratic left cares not a whit about “the best interests of the child.” Rather, it uses children solely as political pawns.
