Time magazines new cover photo slammed President Donald Trump for his administrations separation policy.
The cover takes the trending photo from Getty Images John Moore of a little girl crying while border agents search her mother and combines it with a photo of the president.
The cover reads, Welcome to America.
Time first unveiled the photo on Twitter Thursday morning.

Driving home the point: the image of Trump they chose for the face-off is one that seems to display the callous indifference that he and his supporters have shown thus far in the debate, according to Mashable.
Time published the cover along with a cover story with the headline, A Reckoning After Trumps Border Separation Policy: What Kind of Country Are We? The story focuses on Trumps policy and how it impacts American ideals.
Time called Moores photo the most visible symbol of the immigration debate in America.
Moore told Time the photo of the 2-year-old Honduran girl was a tough one to take.
This one was tough for me. As soon as it was over, they were put into a van. I had to stop and take deep breaths, Moore told Time earlier this week. All I wanted to do was pick her up. But I couldnt.
Social media reacted to the cover.
Trump issued an executive order Wednesday that reversed the policy of separating parents and children, according to The Associated Press. The order wont end the zero-tolerance policy that prosecutes adults at the border, but the order will keep families together, at least for the time being.
More than 2,300 children who have been separated are unlikely to be reunited with their families since their parents remain in federal custody, according to The New York Times.
