“We came to the border to get an unvarnished view of how the Trump administration is trying to keep the American citizenry safe — while, to the best of their ability, they protect the children swept up in this border crisis,” noted Fox News host Laura Ingraham and her team at “The Ingraham Angle” early Tuesday evening, ahead of her one-hour program, live tonight from just south of San Diego, California.

No one likes to see children separated from their parents — anywhere.

“But what we are trying to distill is what happens to those children once they are separated,” said the team at “The Ingraham Angle.” “Part of the reason they are detained while this [illegal immigration] process is unfolding is so they do not fall victim to bad actors like traffickers.”

Laura Ingraham herself has spent considerable time in Central America — and she adopted a child from the area. Watch as she addresses the despair the people there “are fleeing — and how that stacks up to the current conditions in which they find themselves.”
