      I am told that the Trump administration does not plan to return any of the children who've been separated from their families back to them. It's not just that they lack a plan to return them. They do not intend on returning them and will use their return as a bargaining chip.

      I just spoke with a family related to a child that has been sent away with a foster family. They literally told me they are considering forcefully taking their nephew from the foster family and that they feel like he has been kidnapped. It's the Underground Railroad of 2018.

      Many of the children who've been detained & sent away thousands of miles from their parents actually have relatives in the United States. Those relatives are being denied access and custody while their relatives are in group homes & centers w/ strangers This is an abomination.

          If only it were that easy.There is a vetting system in place to ensure that these children are not susceptible to any kind of human trafficking. Precaution should take precedence until there is a determination that the child's safety&well-being are going to be met upon release.

          But. This. Is. How. The. Corrupt. Foster. Care. System. Works! There are no reforms being offered by either party, just anti-trumpism. This is why Repubs will likely maintain control of both the house and the senate.

          If someone had kidnapped my kids, I would probably get me mad enough to start shooting at the guards of these illegal and barbaric detention centers.

          One of my daughters had a friend who was in group homes during her middle school years. We brought her to our home every weekend. Her lawyer helped me get permission from the court to do this. None of the group homes were good.

          Why didn't anyone want to impeach former Presidents? This immigration policy is no different to what it's always been for many years.

          That bill was brought in by Clinton originally in 1997 from memory. It's been quietly in action ever since. Where was the outcry back then?
