They were at the facility, waiting, since Sunday.  Not turned away.


They were in Mexico. It as 113 degrees.

THIS IS ON THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION.

These are consequences of a conscious decision to institute policy designed to be painful.

KC,

Stop blaming a family sitting around in 113 degree heat, desperate to get somplace with food, water, and shelter, you pustulating boil of pure idiocy.  Who were new to the area and unaware that June is when dams and diversion channels are opened up to release irrigation water along the border, and the Rio becomes ten times more dangerous.  Stop blaming people for being frightened and ignorant, and start demanding responsible and humane policies from your FL.  You stupid fuck.

You kind of wonder at what point does the "right"get shocked enough that they are enabling and empowering an inept racist, rapist, protector of the Rio Grand, and Russian puppet to drive the Eldorado into the ditch.

I'm wondering whether its denying those poor kids from Guatemala and Honduras, ripped from their families and thrown into cement warehouses, toothpaste.

Romney and Ernst are calling for a full investigation of sexual assault claims against trump. The House should oblige these two republican senators.

I blame the French and that ridiculous statue they gave us to clutter New York’s harbor.

It sucks that people are dying trying to get to the USA, that is how strong the American Dream is, this is the country that our ancestors built and passed down to us. Right now we have homeless people on our streets, as we send all of the jobs to China, and China is not buying American goods like they need to. There are a lot of issues.

Folks need to be more organized, and the immigrants need to be able to go on the world wide web to the website for the unions, and they need to be able to find out where the jobs are in the USA, and the immigrants can have a plan, and they can map out their route, etc, instead of just praying and traveling. Some of these people have no idea where they are going, they need to know where they are going and they need to have a plan. You do not just go walking across the desert.

The immigrants can get jobs helping to rebuild in areas which were destroyed by fires, and they can  get jobs helping to rebuild in areas which were damaged by hurricanes and floods, etc.

The immigrants can also get jobs working in the vineyards, in Napa, and Sonoma, etc, etc, etc, and they can work in the avocado orchards, and in the fields planting and harvesting fruits and vegetables, etc, etc, etc, and Disneyland has jobs, and Las Vegas has jobs at the casinos and hotels and stuff, Reno has jobs at the hotels and casinos too, etc, etc, etc.

The immigrants need to have a plan, and they need to have it all mapped out.

And we need to have ways for our good neighbors here in the Western Hemisphere to come to the USA legally to live, work, and go to school, and we need to have an easy path to citizenship for them.

We are the caretakers of the American Dream, and many people fought and died to pass this nation down to us, and people are still fighting and dying. The American Dream did not come cheap.

And we have plenty of room. Battle Mountain, Nevada, has wide open and cheap land. And Texas, you could fit the population of the whole world in Texas. We have plenty of room here in the USA for those who wish to bring their dreams here.

Also of note, is that congested traffic on our freeways is never going to get better, so we need to expand transportation alternatives, and we need better public transportation. We need high speed trains, and we need more subways, etc. The immigrants are going to keep coming, the American Dream will never die.

So, the immigrants need to have better plans, and the unions and stuff can help the immigrants to plan, and the USA needs to accept the role as caretaker of the American Dream, and we need to be more welcoming and helpful.

Salute,

Tony V.
