BREAKING: Trump administration releases new numbers on day of court ordered deadline to reunite 2,551 migrant kids separated from parents at border.

They say 711 children STILL separated, *not eligible* for reunification.

Won't say whether they intend to try to reunite them.
Last month we all asked “where are the toddlers and girls?”

Tonight we should all be asking about 711 kids the government says are “ineligible” for reunification.

Deadline has passed.

After taken them, will Trump and company even *try* to reunite them all?

We just don’t know.
To be super clear: just over half of separated kids have been reunited by the deadline to reunite them all.

The administration is declaring victory, saying zero eligible are left in ICE custody.

That ignores 711 other kids.

Latest, with @JuliaEAinsley. nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
.@JuliaEAinsley asked Trump officials on our call tonight about why the number of those eligible to be reunited changed right before the deadline.

Response was “the data is dynamic.”

Data?

We’re talking about 2,551 kids.

Kids ripped from parents.

Each one has a story.
