RUSH: Last week, former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein blasted the zero-tolerance immigration policy that was used on his watch. He said it should never have been “proposed” or even “implemented.”

He said this after a Justice Department watchdog report claimed the policy was the “driving force” responsible for thousands of children being separated from their parents.

Here we go again with this lie.

Rosenstein said he’s been asking himself what could have been done differently. The zero-tolerance immigration policy is at the top of his list.

Now, Democrats are coming back into power, and the groveling is a sight to behold. Anybody like Rosenstein who yearns to get back into the left’s good graces has to pretend that they opposed everything that Trump ever did — and beg to be forgiven for their trespasses against the Democrat agenda.

For the record: The reason illegal immigrant parents were “separated” from their children was due to the 1997 Flores settlement between leftist immigration activists and the government under Bill Clinton — twenty years before Donald Trump became president. You can look it up.

Now, according to news reports, caravans of “migrants” ready to illegally breach our borders are already forming in South and Central America, because they know President Biden will welcome them with open arms.

You see, Democrats have a zero-tolerance policy against enforcing America’s immigration laws. So it’s going to be back to business as usual.

Learn it, love it, live it, I guess. Get used to it.
