Please tell me your children are not home schooled.

It's only a temporary measure.

Until they get the showers built.

Chump doesn’t care about these families/kids! He cares only about himself, and it’s disgusting! I think that his very shy wife talked him into doing the right thing, she seems sincerely compassionate.

He makes a grandiose deal out of signing something to curb families being torn apart and then it seems it was a nothingburger as families are still being separated.
Ya gotta remember this is a guy who sits on a gold toilet in his golden mansion up in the clouds,he has no idea what its like to be poor and desperate for a better life.

Sure they are giving them drugs .. for illnesses. You would prefer that they do nothing when kids are sick? Wow.

Nonsense.
The ones that actually don't care about them are the ones who are using them to spew their hate.

Psychotropic drugs have been and apparently are still being administered to healthy kids, to control behavior. A drugged child is easier to control.

Drug abuse of this kind has been reported at a facility in Texas as well as at one in Virginia. Both facilities are operated by for-profit companies, from what I understand.

It’s hilarious that as the world’s richest country we think we have a fighting chance against illegals when we reward their children with citizenship, who will grow up to sponsor their undocumented parents for a green card.
You can get a green card if you invest $500,000 in project that promises to create US Jobs, and apparently you can get one by investing in a Kushner real estate project because that's what they were selling to the chinese Kushner family in Beijing: 'Invest $500,000 and immigrate' to US Here's more on how it works: https://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/ful...ogram-28662457
And while Trump has his followers panties in a bunch worrying about invaders and MS-13, it appears that if you are a forger, have committed fraud, or if you're simply a criminal and want to be a US Citizen the EB-5 visa is perfect for you! https://abcnews.go.com/US/whistleblo...ry?id=28671577

And this goes on while people freak out about how outrageous it is for some guatemalan woman with an 8 month baby to seek asylum /sigh

Try again...

One child was prescribed 10 different shots and pills, including the antipsychotic drugs Latuda, Geodon and Olanzapine, the Parkinson’s medication Benztropine, the seizure medications Clonazepam and Divalproex, the nerve pain medication and antidepressant Duloxetine, and the cognition enhancer Guanfacine.

Dosage recommendations at Shiloh gave orderlies what Mills called an unusually wide berth to determine how much medicine to give the children. Shiloh already had a reputation for mistreating children. In December 2014, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Houston, called for Shiloh to be shut down, citing reports from the Houston Chronicle of “physical violence, unreasonable and excessive use of physical restraints, administering emergency medications without notice to governmental authorities, and several deaths of minor children while in custody,” she said in a statement. But the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services continued sending children and funds to Shiloh – a total of more than $19 million after the congresswoman called for its closure, according to federal payment records.

We have throughout decades said that family unity was important. To toss it away is a decision based on hatred and fear, not logic. Deport those we need to deport, but separating families is cruel and stupid.
So true. Obama was wrong to institute such an illegal and inhumane practice.

Why did they not shut that place down in 2014? Why were people not outraged in 2014?
