      My God. They are literally shipping the kids detained at the border all over the country. They are arriving via plane and being placed in random foster care centers and group homes in states as far as New York and Michigan. They are doing this JUST TO CREATE A CATASTROPHE

          🙏🏻 thank you for understanding my intentions - my wording of “adopting” was definitely wrong and not sensitive. I’m very apologetic.

          It’s ok, I don’t mind apologizing when someone feels offended. I own my intentions, but don’t want to hurt anyone in the process-I think we all just want the same thing anyway. Thanks, Shawn xo

          Agreed. It’s wrong to separate them. And I highly doubt that tabs are being kept on these children for eventual reunification. It’s disgusting that before these parents are even criminally sentenced, their children are deprived of a lifetime with their loving parent.

          This is a denial of due process and it makes me annoyed when people bring up the “oh well in America criminals can’t take their children to jail.” That being said, it’s not as if the State loses complete track of their child. Plus, border crossing is only a misdemeanor.

          I could wail. This is so disturbing. I hate Trump, Sessions and Kristjen Nielsen with the heat of ten thousand suns. I didn't think I could hate anyone so deeply but I do.

          And is there any guarantee they will be reunited with their parents? Legalized kidnapping at Trump's orders. We haven't enough foster homes for the children in the system already. How does this atrocious policy do any good? Besides fulfilling Trump's feeling of superiority?
