You know, something designed for people... with seats and seat belts?

This administration is filled with monsters.

This night time movement makes me think they have something to hide. I feel for the personnel involved.

BUT, I feel more for the kids involved. They must all be treated passionately.

Our government is of the people, by the people and for the people.

As they say at sea, or boarding a ship, welcome aboard.

I'm also willing to believe she was taken to one single site that is designed to be shown to "visitors" to deny ll the bad things that are being reported. I've seen her speak against du fuss too many times to believe she would blatantly lie. The comment doesn't sound like she speaks either. Some jackass wrote a comment and got it to some reporter.

Sharp eyed DU reader caught it:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1014&pid=2090723

Someone on either MSNBC or CNN was talking to a reporter on the ground near this placeearly this morning. They were talking about all the activity during the night. Trucks coming and going, shipments of stuff coming in, etc. They had been keeping an eye on the place watching for kids arriving. I told my husband I bet they were going to let cameras in and were designing a nice set. Lo and behold, Melania arrives "unexpectedly." Right. Add that to the BS list.

She went to the one that was the "nicer" jail and not the one that still has dog cages in it and little girls. Oh well, she "doesn't really care", so why should you!

What do you want to bet that wearing that jacket was intentionally and deliberately planned to create a furor as a distraction from some of the details of Melania's visit and the issue of reuniting the families?

Since these "people" love to projection so much, perhaps there really is a pizzagate somewhere
