Watch Trump official say caged children don't need soap, toothbrushes, or beds to be "safe and sanitary" [UPDATED]

Wednesday June 26, 2019. 07:05 PM , from BoingBoing
[UPDATE 6/26/19 1:58pm PT. According to an Atlantic article by Ken White, a former federal prosecutor, the woman in the video is Sarah Fabian, the senior attorney in the Department of Justice’s Office of Immigration Litigation. 'Before Sarah Fabian defended concrete floors and bright lights for President Donald Trump,' writes White, 'she defended putting kids in solitary confinement for President Barack Obama.' White also writes, 'And even though the litigation began under the Obama administration, it was the Trump administration that elected to bring this appeal and ask the court to bless these inhumane conditions as 'safe and sanitary.' That’s an extremely aggressive legal argument, and one that suggests that the disturbing conditions being reported at confinement centers are intentional, not a sign of mere neglect.' Thanks for the tip, TheChaz!]
The US government is forcing children to sleep in chain-link cages on concrete floors with aluminum foil blankets and depriving them of basic necessities like soap and toothbrushes.
“The Taliban gave me toothpaste & soap,” tweeted David Rohde, a New Yorker editor who was held hostage by the Taliban for seven months.
