Families Belong Together
500+ nationwide protests planned June 30th KEEP FAMILIES TOGETHER
More cities have joined Wash DC and over 500 cities have an event planned. Spread the word and RESIST....IT WORKS!

Find an event near you, donate, make phone calls and write to your reps, sign the petition. THANKS!!!!

The executive order that Donald Trump signed today is not a solution to the crisis created by his administration; it keeps kids imprisoned indefinitely, and doesn't reunite thousands of separated families. But it does show the administration is reacting to public pressure, so we will continue to increase our pressure for justice at hundreds of events on Saturday, June 30, to say that families belong together.

He's today's version of Mayor John Daley of Chicago. A much more aggressive version.

Trump holds all three branches of government, now. Now he has the authority also to reshape the intel agencies, get rid of Mueller, whatever. He has unchecked authority. Oh, there might be a few peeps from a few Republicans. But not much. Any Republican who stands in the way will be crushed. They don't dare speak out, or their careers will be ruined.

Fait accompli.

The only thing that could help the country is the Mueller investigation. So Trump will take care of that.

If he was able to get a Supreme Court Justice to "recuse himself," he has the power to do anything.
