Absolutely shameful: DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen continued to defend the #Trump administration's "zero tolerance" policy that results in separating children from their parents who enter the U.S. illegally.

During Monday's press briefing at the White House, Nielsen denied separating children from their parents at the border amounted to "child abuse."
