If you're not sure how many you have in custody, it's probably safe to say that you're not really sure how they're being cared for.

Other potentially separated migrant children could still be identified. The government has reviewed the files of 4,108 children out of 50,000 so far.

Sabraw gave the Trump administration six months to complete the task of combing through nearly 50,000 records to locate additional separated children.

At a loss for words really. What’s next, Dotard awards them Purple Hearts and then puts them in charge of Homeland Security. Sounds about right.

Demoralize demoralize demoralize.

As long as McConnell can hold the party line in the Senate, Trump is Teflon Don. The only solution is to vote him out, With 23 (or more, I lost count) Dems running, they are going to have trouble focusing on the goal. At least R's are starting to crumble in the House.

Given the overwhelming support of this admin by evangelicals, one could argue quite the opposite.

They're as far away from the idea of Jesus as you can get. Jesus might have actually slashed their throats for imprisoning refugee children in cages.

Anti-money laundering specialists at Deutsche Bank recommended in 2016 and 2017 that multiple transactions involving legal entities controlled by Donald J. Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, be reported to a federal financial-crimes watchdog.

The transactions, some of which involved Mr. Trump’s now-defunct foundation, set off alerts in a computer system designed to detect illicit activity, according to five current and former bank employees. Compliance staff members who then reviewed the transactions prepared so-called suspicious activity reports that they believed should be sent to a unit of the Treasury Department that polices financial crimes.

  Quote

But executives at Deutsche Bank, which has lent billions of dollars to the Trump and Kushner companies, rejected their employees’ advice. The reports were never filed with the government.

The nature of the transactions was not clear. At least some of them involved money flowing back and forth with overseas entities or individuals, which bank employees considered suspicious.

Wow, what the fuck 

Not only is that guy not to be punished...he’s lionized by the Trumpist masses. They’re not uncomfortable with a man in uniform who guns down civilian girls....THEY FUCKING LOVE IT. It’s raghead killing time! Git some!

Again...this isn’t about sympathy for a soldier who went wrong. It’s hero-worship of someone they think did something RIGHT. Chew on that for a bit. Our POTUS thinks war criminals are heroes, and the people cheer him.

The most twisted, demented "honoring the troops" ever.  But as long as black football players don't kneel during the national anthem, America, Jesus, and the flag WINNING!!!

in regards to hw, i think that was more of a ross perot problem. the % breakdown that year was highly unusual, if i recall correctly. 

i still maintain ghwb was underrated.

Not looking for an argument, but do you think he was a better choice than Clinton?

HW does deserve some credit for not being totally beholden to the right's hate engine, but he is the electoral product of Lee Atwater and the wickedness of Stone and Manafort. He was right about limiting the first Gulf War even though I thought he was wrong at the time.

Trumpkins wish they could do this themselves, which is why they cheer on this pardon.

nope, and i'm not either.

ghwb was the first president i was old enough to really remember while he was president, and i figured all republican presidents would be like that.  i think he can be retroactively graded against some of the shit we've seen since, and it puts him in a pretty positive light, all things considered.

my original post on the matter was just in response to polling numbers and getting/not getting a 2nd term.  i was really just pointing out the unusual nature of the 1992 election results.
