My mouth is hanging open. Points for honesty? What a B. I can only hope it was a jab at her husband maybe. That's what I'm hoping. |

This has a list of companies (that are known so far) and gives the information for that law firm mentioned upthread.
Holy Sh*t - Vanderbilt is on there! I know people at Accenture in the federal practice 😬 I saw that and researched just a little. An article came out saying they don't support Core Civic or whatever it's called. I didn't get into the nitty gritty, but it sounds like the student body wasn't on board with that and got a bill together to stop it a few years back. I need to read more about it. |

tallb I was asking my coworker to get info from her sister. She said of the 55 kids there, only 6 of them were separated from their families. The rest were unaccompanied minors so they either crossed with a coyote, a sex trafficker or people trying to pass these kids off as their own in order to gain access into the country, usually for drugs, etc. Out of the 6 that were separated from their families, 3 of them had just left today to be reunited with them.

What a hard job for her. I see why they have they have to do something with kids that are unaccompanied, and the stories they have gone through sound traumatizing. I am glad the ones that came with their families were reunited, and hope that bodes well for others that were sent away. I'm most upset about the little ones that can't advocate for themselves and how are they going to find their parents. Did she say if Melania gave a damn? I saw she told a group of kids good luck on her way out. |

I saw she told a group of kids good luck on her way out. She said she was very polite and wanted to see everything. She went through the classrooms, wanted to view their artwork, where they slept, what they ate, what their typical day was like, if they thought the counseling was helping, etc. That’s all I know. |

Thankfully, all the ppl I interact w on a daily basis, find this whole thing disgraceful and horrifying. So I haven’t come into contact w asshats like joelies has. I’m not sure I could keep my cool if I did. I’m in a super blue state, so I sent an email to my senator to thank him for supporting Keep Families Together and have sent a donation to raices. I wish I could do something more tangible. I’d love to be in direct contact w this kids and cuddle them or bring them supplies or whatever. I’ve seen the pictures of those foil type looking blankets they have . . . 😕 |

If they're talking about her jacket, they aren't talking about how the world meaningless or how Trump wants to consolidate the DOL with the DOE. It's certainly a possibility. |

What I really wanted to say suggested the use of a device that was in heavy rotation during The French Revolution... |

Everything she wears is carefully picked out. She is a model and wears great things. No way she wore a $30 jacket on a hot day without being flagged before getting out the door. Maybe her husband told her that it what she was going to wear. Also she has tweeted more in the last few days than his whole term (generalizing here).

How do I not engage w assholes on fb?!? Honestly, I’ve started unfollowing certain people. I did a few around the time of the election and a few more this past week. Including my bff’s H who posted something along the lines of ‘if anyone supports the idiot governor or votes democratic, please unfriend me bc I can’t handle that level of stupid’. So I did. |

Around the election, I unfriended a few people and have been a little suspicious of a few others, but they haven't just come out and say who or what they support, so they remai...for now.

Anyone catch the clip of the reunion at BWI airport? I want proof of 2299 more reunions. Every.single.one
Also that's my default airport, I would have lost if it I had encountered that, I get teary at international terminals already when people are just happy to visit each other.

Still no plan to reunite these kids...the 500 or so they did reunite never were sent out of the first place, so they knew where they were.

Apparently the Navy has plans to build a "migrant detention center" for 47,000. They aren't stopping and I can't believe there are any Republicans who are surprised by any of this. Where the fuck were you? Didn't you listen to his campaign speeches, debates, and potential appointees? |
