'Oh my god!' MSNBC panel stunned by ICE treatment of US Marine's immigrant wife

Reacting to a report that Donald Trump's ICE agents arrested the wife of a U.S. Marine in Louisiana who recently gave birth, set off the panel on MSNBC's "The Weekend" on Saturday morning.

A furious and animated Elise Jordan exclaimed "Oh, my god!" as she noted the Marine father has been forced to bring the couple's 9-week-old baby to the jail where his wife is being held so the newborn can be breastfed instead of ICE releasing his wife.

According to a report from NOLA.com, "Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested Paola Clouatre, of Baton Rouge, after a U.S. Customs and Immigration Services check-in last month that she attended with her husband in New Orleans, according to the family's attorney."

"There's a story on Military.com that we cannot get out of our heads that you've been reading all week. I'm so haunted by it. A woman who has been in America since age 14, she fled Mexico violence, applied for asylum," Jordan reported.

"Now 25 years old, she has a 9-week old baby, and now she's in a detention center," she continued. "She's married to a U.S. Marine, also has a 1-year old, a 1-year old mother. The Marine is taking their baby to the facility so she can breastfeed. Oh my god! What kind of country are we? Where is our humanity if we aren't willing to let a mother breastfeed her child in the safety of her own home and married to a U.S. Marine?"

"And then, on top of it, you know, she gets snatched up because she's following the rules that was set out by the American government," she exclaimed. "That's the thing of all the of all the horrors of what we've been seeing around the country, people who are told you have to you have to follow the process, follow the procedures, follow the steps, do the right thing and you'll be rewarded."
