And again, I don’t blame any members of the CBC for boycotting

TW Simone Biles says she was abused by Larry Nassar too. This guy is the scum of the earth. And Michigan State continued to allow him to practice medicine on their gymnasts after the allegations.

Nothing to do with anything but Barron has grown like a foot since inauguration. He is as tall as Mel. Also I think Mel would be perfectly happy still living in NY. She always seems concerned for him, where he is, etc., when they are photographed together and its nice. He is the one member of the family I feel bad for. Like poor kid was just living his life and then thrust into all this because his father is a narcissist. I'm not diagnosing anyone with anything, but as the parent of a child on the spectrum, I feel every muscle in my body tense when I see him being photographed. Being on a red carpet it an itchy tux with people shouting his name and flashbulbs going off in his face would be an absolute nightmare for my kid. And Barron looks*very* uncomfortable. Whether he's sensory, or just shy, it just wants to be a regular kid, I feel for him

This is devastating and completely fucked up. Why is it so important that this one guy be deported. Why give me one good reason.

snip Bannon is talking to the House Intelligence Committee behind closed doors today. I was hoping it would be public. I guess I'll just have to watch Kirstjens testimony. I really wanted to watch Bannon squirm tho

Did the press just catch SHS on her way in to her job? or was her little q&a planned outside?

In a bit of good news (at least for me), Phil Murphy is being sworn in today and we will officially be rid of Chris Christie!

gosh you have to believe in karma, don't you? Because I can't imagine being such a monster that you think it is a good idea to tear apart families. Who does that? What a bullshit policy decision, I don't care what you think about immigration, if at the end of the day you think the best course of action *now* is to separate kids from their families, well you can go to hell.

Grassley DHS doesnt operate as a single department, ...the right hand doesnt know what the left is doing...department doesnt adequately share information so this doesnt prevent the next NY or San Bernadino (which he couldnt say). In 17 dept was criticized by its own IG, failed to unify ICE, etc. They enforce same laws and must be reading from same page or you are going to suffer conflicting agencies
I dont know how much I can liveblog this morning but I'll try to pop in with important things. Or do we need a separate thread?

talking about CPE system going down and causing problems. We dont know who has departed this country and who is still here. Most come here legally and just stay after the visa expires, but DHS cant build IT system to make tracking possible.
Then he pats DHS on head. Real efforts to close loopholes and protect us from terrorists. (Plus deporting perfectly normal people who have contributed to this society)

Talking about Sanchez family from Oakland who (parents) was deported. Their children, one a citizen one a DACA (21 & 23) have to now take care of their younger sisters because sending parents out of the country who have young children is pretty shitty.
