      If this story is true, the little girl and her mom weren't separated-- *but* mom did separate herself from three other children left behind, & from the dad. (Doesn't mean there aren't real issues. One just can't always judge them from a photo or news.) http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5869829/amp/Father-two-year-old-face-child-separation-crisis-speaks-out.html …pic.twitter.com/xASyxTomgj

      The story appeared in the Daily Mail. I'm sure you're familiar with them, and I'd like to see another news organization confirm the story before I accept it as fact. Then again, they're the only newspaper to report on http://snopes.com , which definitely is agenda-driven.

      Yes... "if" true. Sadly, in today's environment, I tend to not automatically believe anything of what I read/see anywhere unless and until I can see first hand info. Too often it turns out to be different.

          We agree. Unfortunately, Big Media are so agenda-driven that I reflexively distrust what they say, depending on the subject. They've even managed to politicize weather reports, and I would have bet money on that being impossible.

          Can’t trust “scientists” anymore. They come to conclusions based on who can give them highest grants for their “research.”

          In climatology, there's a problem - the consensus favors the existence of global warming. If your proposed research doesn't follow the consensus, you don't get a grant. It's not like climatologists LIKE that sort of censorship, but their kids need shoes, too.

          I understand your point. May be true for field of pharmacology and cancer research also.

          As a cancer patient for 20 years (I'M STILL HERE!) I can say that cancer therapy is the exact opposite of modern climatology. Breaking paradigms is what oncology medical chemists DO. All the progress in cancer treatment has been not being afraid to explore new ideas honestly.

          Sadly, for most pharmacology companies, I think it is is $$💰💰that drives research, not altruism...

          Modern pharmaceutical research requires graduate and doctoral-level scientists and supercomputers. So they're morally entitled to recover costs of doing business and make a reasonable profit. What they're not morally entitled to do is sell potent and dangerous drugs on TV.

          The father sure shared lots of photos verifying his story. They don't look like a poor family.https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2018/06/shock-migrant-mother-and-crying-girl-were-never-separated-mom-left-husband-with-good-job-3-other-kids-paid-coyote-6k-to-get-better-life-in-us/ …
