This stop on FLOTUS’ tour appears to be a facility of unaccompanied minors - which is totally different than the children who were taken from their parents arms.

I should clarify this tweet - there are 60 children at the center she visited. 10% were taken from their parents (according to an administration official) - so six. Apologies for any confusion on that one.

Excuse me? This facility holds unaccompanied minors. What you fail to grasp is that the children separated from their parents become UNACCOMPANIED MINORS. So, contrary to your claim that these groups are “totally different,” they are actually housed in the same exact facilities
-
By "unaccompanied minors" I mean the children who came across the border without their parents. Which is different than the ones that were taken from their parents. In this facility, the former are the vast majority.

And lastly, you initially said “totally different” which I think you would now recognize as not just incorrect, but misleading.
-
They are totally diff... nevermind. Be well.

You sad “a facility of unaccompanied minors—which is totally different than the children taken from their parents’ arms” you now know that those facilities are in fact not “totally different,” but one and the same.

Trolling over semantics, eh?

You made an understandable error, but please just clarify for your followers so that it doesn’t look like you are intentionally deceiving the public.

You made an error, Jimbo. Back off.

But your tweet gives an impression that there is a separate facility for children of parents who're being prosecuted. If you are an activist, I can see why you would mute that distinction to create outrage. But if you claim to be a journalist, this is huge known error

In other words, your original tweet was false/misleading. Furthermore, only 10% of total illegal alien minors in the custody of HHS were separated from their alleged parent(s) after crossing the border. So, the number at this facility is consistent w/ the overall ratio, yes?

1. This directly contradicts what your original tweet states. 2. You can’t listen to a tweet, so maybe think before you do.
