Karoline LeavittTreating migrants as nonhumans is 'promise the president campaigned on'
"White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt refused to deny reports that migrants were not treated as humans at Guantanamo Bay and said it was a "promise that the president campaigned on."
During Tuesday's White House briefing, Leavitt was asked about a Washington Post report on the treatment of migrants.
