These are harrowing first-hand accounts from children in custody based on interviews from attorneys in the camps. Every American should read them and demand we close the camps immediately. The truth is right here: It's up to us to listen. #CloseTheCamps
These unsafe and unsanitary living conditions are a direct violation Flores Settlement Agreement. A Temporary Restraining Order Motion was filed to bring emergency relief to children who lack basic hygiene supplies, adequate nutrition, or sleep at CBP facilities. #CloseTheCamps
The Trump administration is responsible for all of this. The truth is right here: It's up to us to listen. #CloseTheCamps

BREAKING: @TheIntercept just reported that DHS monitored the protests against family separation that took place last summer -- this is an abuse of power and we demand answers. theintercept.com/2019/04/29/fam…
These peaceful protests were in response to the horrific family separation policies that were being carried out by the Trump administration and that ripped thousands of children from the arms from their parents.
Documentation reveals that DHS tracked over 600 of our events including locations, Facebook accounts, and URLs.

Family Separation Hearing Thread⤵️
We’re here today in the first (!) oversight hearing regarding the Administration’s cruel, inhumane, and unlawful #FamilySeparation policy. Live-Tweets in the thread below. So far there is universal bipartisan agreement: #FamiliesBelongTogether
Today’s hearing is focused on how @HHSGov carried out its role to care for and ensure the safety of immigrant children. Neither DOJ nor DHS, who reportedly spawned the Administration’s #FamilySeparation policy, is represented here today.
Government Witnesses rise to be sworn in. This this the first time anyone in the federal government has testified in Congress under oath regarding #FamilySeparation

UPDATE: @CBP’s actions at the border today were alarming. The agency is going against everything that this country stands for, including not allowing refugees to present for asylum. #RefugeesWelcome
We went to Tijuana with @RepJimmyGomez, @RepBarragan, @AlOtroLado_org and @IMUMIDF to personally escort a handful of the most vulnerable refugees to a port of entry, including the mother and children pictured in the iconic tear gassing photo. #RefugeesWelcome
Among the group were unaccompanied children, Maria and her 5 children from the iconic photo, and 7 children who are at risk of aging out of protections because the Trump administration is forcing them to stay in Tijuana past their 18th birthdays. #RefugeesWelcome

My fellow American Patriots: Let's not make the mistake of overlooking how wealthy and resourceful our neighbor to the south, Mexico, has become. Much of it can be traced back to the failed policies of NAFTA. I've seen it first-hand and I'm here to tell you about it. #Mexico #PRI
I have been posting here on Social Media about it for a year now. As Americans we don't always understand, or understand at all, the realities of politics in Mexico City.

I was amazed, myself, to learn the budgets these people are working with and their access to international
political consultants, law firms, lobbyists, and so forth. I was conflicted within my own thoughts for a long time because I believe there is no other American entrepreneur in recent history who has advocated for legitimate U.S./Mexico technology business, than I have. #USA

The Trump Regime approved the transfer of #nuclear technology to #SaudiArabia seven times!

Trump is risking #War with #Iran because he states, “we just don’t want them to have nuclear weapons - not too much to ask.” 

How can Americans believe this lie?

2015 Hillary Clinton's email.

What Israel military leaders really worry about -- but cannot talk about is loosing their nuclear monopoly!

The Yinon Plan, a strategy intended to ensure Israel’s regional superiority in the Middle East that involves breaking apart the Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia & Egypt into smaller & weaker sectarian states.

Though #Pakistan was created on religious line, #Jinnah was most liberal Muslim who never wanted #Pakistan a religious firm!
Till 1977 , Religion was just a personal choice in #Pakistan , General #Zia not only pushed religion but also took country decades backward !
#SZAB
Zia knew he had zero support from People hence he decided to take support from Mullahs and he ensured that hardcore Islam penetrate each institution in #Pakistan including #Army & #ISI !
#Soviet invaded #Afghanistan in 1979, #Zia used this opportunity to the fullest .
#US wanted to work on Proxy war, Zia got excellent platform to build these Proxies in Madrassa's of Pakistan.

There is perhaps no more arrogant posture that can be taken here on earth than what quasi-intellectuals such as many of the top Democratic party leadership figures have arrogantly started to assume as they play God in the name of "science."
Such foolish arrogance has already come back to hurt them in some ways, and I suspect it will continue to do so. It is important Americans understand some of what has been going on.
Reflecting, I think a lot of the worst stuff high level Democrat party operatives are involved with started back in the mid 1990's or possibly slightly before then. There is no question it has been getting worse over time and things continue to get worse at an alarming rate.

It's not every day I take a stand a political issue. In reality, just a computer guy who started a Social Network during the com internet boom. Don't know much about politics, despite having spent years around political figures. Spoke up when it seemed like the right thing to do.
So far, there's one thing I've spoken out about, definitively. That is the increasing influence on the U.S. Democratic Party by the Mexican PRI political party. I spoke out about it because I know it's true, it's not understood by Americans, and it's completely wrong. #TRUTH
I have spoken out about Mexico's increasing influence and meddling in U.S. politics not because it's some ill-informed guess or opinion I had. I spoke out about it because I know it based on my own experience, things I heard and saw in both countries, first-hand. #TRUTH
