Sending the parents back to where they came from, but keeping the kids? Makes no sense to me.
Edit to add: follow the money. Someone is getting rich.

(10,952 posts)ability of people to come here from Central or South America the lose the people willing to work the farms (vegetable/fruit or meat/poultry). You need to find a new work source. Children might be programmed so to speak to be a new version of essentially slave labor.

2. To hold them "hostage" to get the Dems to pay for his fucking wall.

As any parent would.
So, you don't want them to come back?
Give them back their children, you stupid fucks!

(28,944 posts)This video explains the process in more detail. However, in response to what Rachel just said about the parents being sent back without the children. It sounds like they are so disorganized they don't know where the kids are. It's a total cluster fuck because like everything Trump does, it was never thought through. They don't give a fuck!

(9,353 posts)They think that democrats will be so cowed into submission by this that they will agree to the $30 million for a wall.
Fuck them. I hope the Cheeto just crumbles into orange dust and gets swept up and dumped in a sewer.
Just heard the tape of the children crying on Rachel. These fucks deserve any foul pestilence that can be brought down on them. Twice!
