        So the immigrant children can be returned to their parents in detention facilities.

        Can ICE, the contractors running the facilities, etc., be charged with contempt if they don't and if so, what are the odds it actually gets enforced that way?

        📣 The judge ruled that the Trump administration must reunite separated families within 30 days, and children under 5 must be reunited with their parents within 14 days. #FamiliesBelongTogether

        And folks, listen well. Despite this ruling, we must keep up the protests, the pressure, and the fight on all fronts, now and forever. Our democracy and nation are under attack. Vote, register others to vote, vote blue every time even if candidate is not 100% perfect.

        I'm not sure what that means, however, "proven unfit." In horrific 2012 story, a white couple stole a poor Honduran woman's child - at early formative stage - immediately renamed him w an anglo name, "Jamison," from "Carlos" - raised him English-only when mom only spoke Spanish-

        According to the news report I read, this racist judge awarded custody on ground she was unfit "because" she crossed the border and worked w/out paper in poutry packing - where she was arrested in an ICE raid and her then infant or toddler was taken from her &given to this couple

        This does not make you an "unfit parent" - if anything, she sounds like a dedicated parent who wanted to give her child a better life by coming into the U.S. and working hard in meat packing. It is horrifying to read about and see how distraught and anguished this poor mom was -

        - her baby son robbed from her by the #USA government and a couple w a case of "white privilege" who were clearly intent on doing exactly that from the beginning based on the evidence of their immediate choices - e.g. renaming him and using only English which his mom didn't speak

        I'm wondering how rare this is. From the sound of this report, this judge made a ruling using her passage over the border and working without papers as "Evidence" of being "unfit." Horrifying.

        And the judge further disregarded evidence that this couple clearly from the outset intended to "steal" the baby/toddler - and rob him of his mother.

        Yes - and to rob the mother - a poor woman of color from Honduras - of her baby. Heartbreaking and disgraceful. How often does this happen? It is right in the tradition of #USA racism - fr reservations to slavery - taking children fr families of color & robbing pple of heritage

        May the Lord Almighty bless that Federal Judge and all those who are leading the fight to reunite the migrant parents with their children. I've been praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. I put those children as the petition. I will continue to pray despite how down I feel.

        Well, I guess the lower courts are going to have to save our Democracy since the Supreme Court won’t! Today’s ruling from the Supreme Court to let tRumps travel ban stand is deplorable!
