Officers working for Gov. Greg Abbott’s border security initiative have been ordered to push small children and nursing babies back into the Rio Grande, and have been told not to give water to asylum seekers even in extreme heat, according to an email from a Department of Public Safety trooper who described the actions as “inhumane.”

    Reminds me of a story from Nazi Germany where a Jewish woman was holding her baby on a train platform and the baby wouldn’t stop crying. A Nazi guard came over, grabbed the baby by the feet, and slammed it against a brick wall as hard as he could. He then handed the baby back to the mother and said something like “it’s quiet now.”

    The people that support this are just like Nazi guards.
