Trump says he will be signing something to keep children and families together - 1. Looks like he may be backing down from his Zero Tolerance Policy and listening to Schumer and using his pen instead of legislation; 2. Probably doing this because the Repugs don't have the votes to pass what Ryan said he was going to hold a vote on tomorrow.

(46,166 posts)They don't have the votes and the Party is feeling the heat. This lead balloon policy landed on the Republicans and they've cracked.
Now all they can do is to try and put lipstick on the pig with the fellating around the table being aired on tv right now.

(45,002 posts)Asylum seekers are still being tossed in concentration 'facilities' without hope of, well, anything. It's still an atrocity.

(25,245 posts)They have upset the apple cart. They have thousands of children and families broken apart and spread all over hell. They have all these detention centers and now a tent city. They spent a lot of money to get to this point and they will have to spend a lot of money to reverse this. They will probably screw it up because they don't have good tracking to get the children back to the rightful parents.
I hope the MSM keeps the pressure on Trump and the Repugs. They own this - lock, bumpstock and barrel. We need to make them carry this ownership all the way to Nov. Must keep on reminding the American People of the inhumane ways of Trump and the Repug Party.

(15,805 posts)the civil rights icon, spent the morning on the House floor calling on Trump and congressional Republicans to end their policy by saying "as we stand here, a five-year-old woke up in a cage. This morning, Mr. Speaker, that innocent little child is crying in a cage, and we stand here doing nothing."
