The Trump adminstration hoped to transport children far & wide without us ever being aware

The depravity of that core decision needs to be kept in mind. Especially when we feel discouraged or wiped out. Never doubt how viciously he's willing to abuse humanity. Today it's immigrants seeking asylum. Tomorrow it will be us if he chooses.

I agree with Tony Schwatrz's assessment - Trump's goal is to become the U.S. dictator for life.

A November blue wave won't accomplish what's needed. We need a tsunami. We need to overwhelm them completely.

1. Agreed! A Blue Tsunami! A Blue Volcano! A Blue Tidal Wave!

A Blue Explosion!

2. There's no reasoning with his followers

We have to motivate those who lean left to get registered and to vote.

3. He wanted to sell them and make money from it

4. I don't know what they really planned but they expected to get away with it

[onecaliberal]

6. They ARE getting away with it. No children will be returned. They're not keeping track.

[eleny]

7. I meant that they expected us to never know it was happening

My bad for being so unclear.

But getting away with it hasn't happened yet. I'm hopeful that plenty of shit will hit the fan before they get away with it.

5. They had no intention of reuniting kids to their parents.

End results:
Yes,
1.it eventually would be a deterrent, but until people stop trying, there is
2.money to be made housing them,etc.
3. Confusion and anger and depression nationwide is ramped up to unbelievable levels.
4. Citizens are spending valuable time and resources to combat this evil shit, while
5. Other evil shit gets done.
6. Less undocumented immigrantsmeans less money contributed to Social Security.
7. And of course, more and more money is made in evil ways off of the children who are totally
unaccounted for.

8. All we can do is keep our collective shoulder to the wheel

And do it for the kids and because we're next for being ground down under his heel.

[Lars39]

9. So true!

10. Too many people are energized and angry over this outrage

It’s not going away. Expect more Portland closing protests.
