I'll say it a million times and I'll say it their faces. If their reaction is to immediately defend exploiting vulnerable children, they're depraved, they've got no soul, and to fuck straight off.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Ice goons won't let this go and they'll probably find a way to fuck this kid's family.
The Texas politician said he picked them up from the detention center and brought them back to Minneapolis early Sunday.
Finally a useful politician
I am relieved this kid has been released, but I remember that there's still over 1000 people in Dilley, and Dilley is one among many. These kids are being fed rotten food, given dirty water for baby formula, often separated from their families. With ICE committing so many crimes, how many of these kids are getting trafficked?
That poor kid is damaged for life.
People who are trauma informed understand this is a true statement.
trauma informed
You mean those who have been abused.
People who are trauma informed understand, "that poor kid (who has been abused) is damaged for life" is a true statement.
Trauma informed sounds so stupid. Like some kind of lame effort to replace the real words for what it is. Its probably meant well as such lame ass concepts are but for someone who has suffered abuse and at his age it sounds like a bullshit catch phase to me.
Those and those who understand what happens when a child goes through trauma.
That poor little boy.
Well, good. I did not bet on that happening.
They're both completely lawful residents. They've literally done nothing wrong and should have never been detained.
Obviously.
Glad to see it!
I hope someone helps them to sue the shit out of those responsible.
