On Thursday, Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough took to the airwaves to repeat the claim from Boston Globe reporter Liz Goodwin that "children are being told and their parents are being told that they're being taken off to the showers. And that they'll return. And they never return."
JOE SCARBOROUGH: "What's going on right now at the border is un-American, I will tell you a lot of Catholics, leaders have come out and said, it is un-Christ-like."
...
SCARBOROUGH: Public defenders, in the federal courts down there in McAllen, Texas reporting that children are being told and their parents are being told that they're being taken off to the showers. And that they'll return. And they never return. You know, I don't have to compare that to previous regimes in other horrific countries. That -- that conclusion actually is too obvious. This is Donald Trump's America. And yes, it sounds like something we would be condemning, coming out of North Korea.
...
SCARBOROUGH: That's our America, Mika. And sadly, that's our Republican party. And that is the problem today.
