Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen took issue with the use of the word “cages” to describe the detention facilities used for children.
Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen testified before the House Homeland Security Committee on Wednesday, attempting to push back against criticism of President Donald Trump’s policy that separated migrant children from their parents.
Again, Nielsen argued against the use of the word “cages,” referring to detention facilities as"areas of the border facility that are carved out for the safety and protection of those that remain there while they’re being processed."
