    Default "Somebody is going to die" 250 migrant kids/infants in chaos, squalor, lice, illness

    PEOPLE, PEOPLE, PEOPLE, this is the equivalent of WATERBOARDING in slow motion--on kids. I woke up this AM in a bit of a stupor. (Lots of drugs (legal) to knock out something that sent me to a 'doc in a box' facility SUN early morning). I woke up to Scarborough so outraged, he SAID he was setting up a fund to get food, diapers, toothbrushes and soap to this facility down on the border. I had heard about the SOAP and TOOTHBRUSHES mandated by a judge but I sure as hell missed all of the rest of this story.

    All this apparently started rolling out from an AP story on FRI or SAT.


    ‘Somebody is going to die’: Lawyer horrified after witnessing chaos, illness and danger at migrant child jail in Texas

    Outrage is mounting over a shocking Associated Press report published late last week revealing that at least 250 migrant infants, children and teenagers have been locked up for nearly a month without adequate food, water or sanitation at a Border Patrol station in Clint, Texas, near the city of El Paso.

    Lawyers who visited the facility described a scene of chaos and sickness, with children unable to shower or change into clean clothes
    for weeks on end. The AP report came the same week that the Trump administration argued in federal court that the government is not required to provide toothbrushes, soap or beds to children detained at the border, and as other reports found similarly squalid conditions at a number of immigration jails. We speak with Warren Binford, a lawyer who interviewed children detained at the Clint, Texas, facility.

    Ask me if I give a damn. They weren't forced to come here, were they?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Then someone better tell the House to get off their moronic asses and do something about it. Like passing Trumps border legislation.

    Why are the children unaccompanied?

    Did they ?
    They can walk back or perhaps liberals can rent busses to cart them back like the ones they rented to haul them up.

    House and Senate BOTH offered up bills. House HISPANIC CAUCUS wants more safeguards on how the money is spent (I'd certainly put some safeguards in there). So the bill is ready to roll, what last MON (or TUES). The ORANGE ASSHOLE gets his devastating polling #'s (or the #'s are 'outed' to us) from HIS own commissioned poll, which has him losing in every key state. He reacts. Says he's going to start rounding up illegals and deporting them.

    I have no idea what kind of wringer this asshole just put in the appropriations mix!!! Would you trust this POS?

    The ONLY 'art of the deal' having anything to do with TRUMP was in the author's imagination.
