Celebs slam photo of Ivanka Trump and son amid border crisis
Ivanka Trump posted a photo with her son and has received heavy criticism from social media. Many celebrities are reacting to the post.
A few celebrities slammed a photograph Ivanka Trump shared on social media Sunday amid reports that the Office of Refugee Resettlement [ORR], a federal agency, lost track of 1,500 immigrant children in the last three months of 2017.
The first daughter shared the candid moment of her holding her 2-year-old son, Theodore, with a caption stating, “My [heart emoji]! #SundayMorning.”
Singer Halsey and other social media users and celebrities criticized Trump’s post for her timing amid the report.
“I wonder what #SundayMorning is like for the parents of 1,500 lost children your father is responsible for. F--- your #SundayMorning,” Halsey, 23, tweeted.
The pop star was not the only celebrity to take notice of Trump’s photo.

Comedian Patton Oswalt also criticized the post.
“Isn’t it the just the best to snuggle your little one – knowing exactly where they are, safe in your arms? It’s the best. The BEST. Right, Ivanka? Right?” Oswalt tweeted.
Comedian Jim Carrey also got in on the criticism by sharing a cartoon inspired by the report.

“1,500 innocent children ripped from their mothers’ arms at our border. Lost in Trump’s ‘system.’ Give us your tired, your poor, your huddle masses yearning to breathe free – and we will torture them for wanting a better life. From Shining City to Evil Empire in under 500 days.”
Comedian Chelsea Handler also criticized the photograph asking, “What in the world is wrong with this family? Is this picture supposed to remind Mexican asylum seekers what they’ve lost?”
On Saturday, a report stated the ORR lost track of 1,500 kids. Steve Wagner, an official with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, disclosed the agency’s fumble to a Senate subcommittee last month.
Fox News’ Bradford Betz and the Associated Press contributed to this report.
