NEW: Trump admin admits it has expelled 8,800 migrant kids from U.S. with little legal oversight or due process, skirting anti-human trafficking law.

Using COVID as excuse, he’s accomplishing what he hoped family separations would force Congress to do. nbcnews.to/3mhQveP
That figure is for unaccompanied kids. They’ve also expelled 7,600 who came as part of a family group. And 159,000 people total since March.
Undermining their own public health justification of the practice, last month @lomikriel and @DLind reported the Trump administration is “only expelling kids who’ve tested negative.” propublica.org/article/ice-is…
Was on assignment at Arizona border when news broke (h/t @camiloreports) that Trump admin admitted it has expelled 8,800 unaccompanied migrant kids despite anti-trafficking law forbidding the practice, using COVID as justification. Went live on #AMJoy and gave @CapehartJ latest.

Very sorry to hear the @latimes shut its Olympic Printing Plant after 30 years. I toured it in 2007, when I was vlog-reporting for @laobserved. It was amazing and everyone was so welcoming and kind, as you can see.

I am clearly doing my best Huell Howser impression in that tour video btw.

South Carolina’s remarkable economic growth is changing the electorate. We went inside BMW’s massive plant (where I took a mallet to a $200K car), and to West Greenville, where the Black population has declined as prices force residents out, to learn more.
“Within the next five years, I believe this neighborhood won’t be recognizable by those who once knew it.”

Six years ago, Trump officials held a Valentine's Day meeting in which deliberately separating migrant kids from parents was proposed. Thousands ultimately were.

Two years after creating a task force to reunite them, Biden's DHS says over 600 have been, but 998 remain separated.
Biden admin's task force, led by @MichelleBrane, says the "number of new families identified continues to increase, as families come forward and identify themselves as separated under the previous administration’s zero-tolerance policy." dhs.gov/news/2023/02/0…
Meanwhile, as it reunites families separated by a Trump policy Biden himself called "criminal," his admin is fighting them in court as they seek financial restitution for trauma they endured. Here's just one example, reported by @ElviaMalagon. chicago.suntimes.com/2023/2/1/23579…

This was a truly remarkable story to report and thing to witness. Researchers at @Stanford think they may have discovered a remarkable breakthrough when it comes to treating Parkinson’s patients — and it’s as simple as putting on a pair of gloves.
Here’s where people interested in being a part of the study by @peter_tass can find more information: med.stanford.edu/tass-lab
You can also e-mail Dr. Tass and his team at parkinsonsvcr@stanford.edu to reach out and connect.

Thanks so much for the feedback to this story and to @AudreyKolina and @XavierNBC for producing it.

NEW: Your “legal” pot might be cultivated by victims of labor trafficking at black market grows, as we saw in the Mojave Desert. It’s something now happening across the country. The first of our two @NBCNightlyNews reports.

With @AarneHeikkila, Mitch Koss, @julialeereports and @aliciavlozano. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/r…
Tonight on @NBCNightlyNews — part two of our investigation into human trafficking in the cannabis black market.

These victims told us they were trafficked from California to New Mexico and know others who have been treated the same way.

Here’s a preview:
