ZitatLast night my 5-year old woke up from a bad dream, crying and calling for his parents. I ran to him, quickly smoothing him back to sleep.

The rest of the night I kept thinking about the kids we are removing from their parents. How many called out last night? Who answered them?

Wall Street Journal reporter Michael C. Bender confirmed on Monday that photos of the president of France, one of Americans longest standing allies, were removed from a wall in the White House's West Wing.

In place of the French president were at least three photos of Trump shaking hands, walking and talking with Kim.

ZitatLies, China And Putin: Solving The Mystery Of Wilbur Ross' Missing Fortune

In November 2017, Ross confirmed in writing to the federal Office of Government Ethics that he had divested everything he promised.

But that was not true.

For most of last year, Ross served as secretary of commerce while maintaining stakes in companies co-owned by the Chinese government, a shipping firm tied to Vladimir Putin's inner circle, a Cypriot bank reportedly caught up in the Robert Mueller investigation and a huge player in an industry Ross is now investigating. It's hard to imagine a more radioactive portfolio for a cabinet member.

The AHRQ National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC, guideline.gov) Web site will not be available after July 16, 2018 because federal funding through AHRQ will no longer be available to support the NGC as of that date. AHRQ is receiving expressions of interest from stakeholders interested in carrying on NGC's work. It is not clear at this time, however, when or if NGC (or something like NGC) will be online again. In addition, AHRQ has not yet determined whether, or to what extent, the Agency would have an ongoing role if a stakeholder were to continue to operate the NGC.

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ)'s National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC) is a searchable repository of summaries of more than 4,000 clinical practice guidelines made by professional societies, voluntary health agencies, and governmental agencies to explain the evidence for using methods of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment in more than 50 health care fields. NGC has also offered guideline syntheses that compare different guidelines available on similar topics and expert commentaries that provide additional insights related to evidence-based practice.

ZitatThe U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia ordered a preliminary injunction that puts an immediate halt to the government's policy of locking up mothers and children from Central America – all of whom have been found to have legitimate asylum claims – in order to send a message to other migrants that they should not come to the U.S.

We must always arrest people coming into our Country illegally. Of the 12,000 children, 10,000 are being sent by their parents on a very dangerous trip, and only 2000 are with their parents, many of whom have tried to enter our Country illegally on numerous occasions.
ZitatAs children are separated from their families, law enforcement agents reclassify them from members of family units to "unaccompanied alien children." Federal officials said Tuesday that since May, they have separated 2,342 children from their families, rendering them unaccompanied minors in the government's care.

Zitat"This week, I have been in touch with various agencies and organizations working with these vulnerable children. We have received reports and are very concerned that the children arriving here are much younger than those who have been transported here in the past. Some of the children are infants as young as three months of age and are completely unable to advocate for themselves. While we commend the work of resettlement agencies in Michigan attempting to serve these children with dignity and compassion, nothing can replace the love, sense of security and care of a parent."

The administration's current family separation policy is an affront to the decency of the American people, and contrary to principles and values upon which our nation was founded. The administration has the power to rescind this policy. It should do so now.
Das genügt nicht mehr, Senator:

Trump hat sich mit den Republikanern getroffen um sie auf Kurs zu bringen. Zum Glück ist er ein Genie und überhaupt weltgrößter Verhandler - da doch eigentlich garnix mehr schief gehen.

About last night
House GOP leaders had one goal -- to have the President forcefully back the second of two immigration overhauls slated for votes on Thursday, which was the result of negotiations between moderates, conservatives and leadership.
...
Then Trump took the floor and talked -- about trade (He told Republicans to relax -- he knew what he was doing, sources inside the room said).
He also talked regulatory reform, his North Korea meeting and told the gathered lawmakers they were a "hot group" because of how well things were going.
He attacked a member of the conference for losing his primary -- South Carolina Rep. Mark Sanford.

When he got to immigration, the President said he was supportive of the House GOP efforts, but left some members unclear what he actually supported

Die Abrechnung der Partei, die Babies in Lager sperrt, mit dem FBI macht außerhalb von Fox keine Schlagzeilen. Man hört da einen Haufen starker Worte, eines bedrohlicher als das andere. Insbesondere Peter Strzok schält sich als der Agent Clintons/Obamas heraus, der die ganze Russland-Scheiße erfunden hat – jedenfalls wenn man Grassley & Co. glaubt. Die Schönheitsflecken auf diesem Narrativ sind vergleichsweise klein: z. B. muss man dem IG sagen, dass seine Schlussfolgerungen unverständlich milde sind. Da wird es ja bald Zeit, eine Untersuchung der Tätigkeit des IG aufzunehmen.

Noch ein Schönheitsfehler. Adam Schiff hat Strzok eingeladen, vor dem Kongress auszusagen:
ZitatSchiff noted that Republicans on the committee had notified the DOJ in January about the committee's intentions to interview Strzok, but they ultimately did not offer him the opportunity to speak before the committee "for reasons that remain unclear."

"We would welcome the opportunity to finally hear from Mr. Strzok," Schiff wrote.

Schiff offered the FBI official a closed-door interview that would cover unclassified and classified matters, parts of which could then be released in an unclassified portion of the transcript if Strzok agrees.
http://thehill.com/policy/national-security/393181-schiff-invites-strzok-to-appear-before-house-intelligence-committee
(meine Hervorhebung). Genauso wie mit Nunes' ,,subpoena" oder mit dem ,,FBI-Agenten in der Trump-Kampagne". Je vager und ungeklärter die Vorwürfe, umso besser lassen sie sich von den Trumpisten ausschlachten – nach der Aufdeckung sind sie uninteressant für das Vorhaben, Mueller zu kippen.

ZitatThe fact that House leaders deemed the meeting a success underscores one of the central paradoxes of this presidency: Trump's decision to speak on a piece of crucial legislation often leaves lawmakers bracing with fear.

"Every time President Trump weighs in on a bill and doesn't cause complete chaos in the Republican conference should be considered a win by leadership," one senior Republican aide told me.

In der "Immigrationsfrage" wird das übereinstimmenden Berichten zufolge dazu führen, dass der Kongress überhaupt nichts beschließen wird. Die Partei wird weiter Babies von ihren Müttern wegreißen und in Lager sperren.
