1,475:

…in April U.S. Department of Health and Human Services officials had told Congress that the agency “was unable to determine with certainty the whereabouts of 1,475 unaccompanied alien children.”

Surge in migrant children at government shelters as Trump admin pushes ‘zero tolerance’:

A total of 30,000 children have been referred to the Office of Refugee Resettlement so far this fiscal year, HHS said.

Hurricane Maria death toll may be more than 4,600 in Puerto Rico:

That is more than 9/11 and more than Katrina, but Drumpf gave his response an A+, and isn’t any better prepared for this year’s season that officially starts tomorrow.

Almost 7 per day: the number of lies that Trump is currently averaging.

Today Trump is fishing for apologies from sundry people for various “insults”. When is he going to apologize for any of his lies and insults? Respect is earned – he hasn’t even applied for the “job”…

And that 1,475 is *for one year*. And both DHS and HHS say they’re not responsible for the children so it’s not *their* problem. Well, given that DHS is holding the kids’ parent in a detention center, who the bleep IS? Santa Claus?!

The Border Patrol has become a child trafficking agency.

They are under the control of the DHS and in the custody of HHS. They may be “paroled” to the care of sponsors, but the responsibility of the government can’t be given to others without a court ruling. No one associated with the Trump administration wants to take responsibility for anything. 👿
