And I’d be awful curious to learn of the political ties of the folks getting rich off all this human misery, with their privately run internment camps. But I’m guessing we’re not going to find much common ground here. Sure. But even if you don't give a rat's ass about the humanity aspect, it's just bad politics. And business.

Whether Obama did it or not, or whatever, stop seperating the kids and improve the optics of the situation. That said, the dems have demonstrated that they don't care about the immigration problem. So I back Trump on that issue, moronic execution notwithstanding. They aren't seperating anymore. Once Trump stopped that they moved on to inhumane conditions. Whichbwe all know are not happening. The biggest joke was a doctor went there to give medical aid and then said they were being denied medical aid. It's nuts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And the whole "children have died" is pure BS. They died from conditions they showed up with. It's not our fault the shithole they crawled out of doesn't vaccinate. They either died in hospitals or after they were released from custody. There was also a flu epidemic where quarantine was necessary. Some American kids died of the flu in the last year as well. This pure propaganda is out of control. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And oh yeah the obligatory cops are racist and the pressing issue in the black community. Yawn. Since they haven’t actually done anything to improve the pressing issues in the black community, perhaps we should see how this administrations policies play out for them. It’s only been 2 years. Besides the historical low black unemployment numbers, Trump seems to be doing more for their community than I’ve seen anyone else do (or try to do). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Over the years, lawyers acting on behalf of minors protected by the Flores Agreement have filed numerous motions asking judges to enforce it, claiming that the government has fallen short of its obligations.
