    The Department of Health and Human Services said the children who have already been separated will not be reunited with their parents. "For the minors currently in the unaccompanied alien children program, the sponsorship process will proceed as usual."

        Because they simply cannot keep track, never had the intention. So the children are being deported to where? Agree. That is human trafficking.

        There should be no new deportions until they can reunify families.

        But, we do have these laws called #FOSTA and #SESTA, right? Oh, wait.... they're only for banning legal and consensual sex work and porn, not actual trafficking? Oh. Congrats, liberals....you got snookered again. #WeToldYouSo

        This is not acceptable. We the people need to demand that these children are reunited with their birth parents.
