In L.A., Obama urges donors not to take midterms for granted: 'We are seeing the consequences' of a political story based on fear
When It Comes To SCOTUS, You Can’t Stop Trump. All You Can Do Is Vote There's only one path back to power for liberals and progressives: "and it runs through the ballot box," writes Wendy Kaminer.
Obama: ‘You are right to be concerned’. In his first public comments in months, Obama blasted Trump without actually saying his name: “Telling people that somebody’s out to get you, or somebody took your job, or somebody has it out for you, or is going to change you, or your community, or your way of life — that’s an old story and it has shown itself to be powerful in societies all around the world. It is a deliberate, systematic effort to tap into that part of our brain that carries fear in it.”
Marchers around the country protest family separations. Organizers said more than 30,000 people marched near the White House to protest the Trump administration's immigration policies.

Milo Yiannopoulos: My call for shooting journalists was just a 'troll' Conservative commentator Milo Yiannopoulos responded to the deadly mass shooting at a newspaper in Maryland by claiming that he was just “trolling” and “joking” when he told reporters two days ago he "can’t wait for the vigilante squads to start gunning journalists."

Portland homeless accounted for majority of police arrests in 2017, analysis finds "One in every two arrests made by the Portland Police Bureau last year was of a homeless person...The number of arrests is dramatically disproportionate to Portland's homeless population. People experiencing homelessness represent a tiny fraction of the city's overall population -- well below 3 percent even using the biggest estimates. "Yet in 2017, they accounted for 52 percent of arrests." This is what "broken windows" policing looks like in Portland.
Trump-Supporting Friend—This Really isn’t About Donald Trump “It’s about my disappointment at your easily manipulated nationalistic fervor; how the God and Guns, America First, Love it or Leave it rhetoric, so easily took root in your heart—how hostile to outsiders and foreigners you’ve become.”

When you parent, it’s crucial you realize you aren’t raising a “mini me,” but a spirit throbbing with its own signature. For this reason, it’s important to separate who you are from who each of your children is. Children aren’t ours to possess or own in any way. When we know this in the depths of our soul, we tailor our raising of them to their needs, rather than molding them to fit our needs. ― Dr Shefali Tsabary
Our children didn’t come into the world to be our puppets. They came here to struggle, fumble, thrive, and enjoy—a journey for which they need our encouragement. ― Dr Shefali Tsabary
“Because children are essentially good, when we see a child hit, it ought to evoke in us an empathic response such as, “What pain they must be in to feel the need to hit.” ― Shefali Tsabary, Out of Control: Why Disciplining Your Child Doesn't Work... and What Will

Yale University Professor Timothy Snyder gives a crash course in Ivan Ilyin's philosophy of fascism and explains why this worldview is so appealing to Putin: it defines freedom as knowing your set place in society, asserts that democracy is a ritual and not a reality, and maintains that there are no facts in the world. Perhaps the most fascinating part of this is how new technology—like Facebook—is turning old fascism into political warfare.

Top people speaking for the United States aren't telling us the truth — starting with the president.
White House Proposes Merging Education And Labor Departments
How America Treats Its Own Children Punishing children for the circumstances they're born into, or abandoning them to the vicissitudes of fate, is pervasive in US policy, and makes us an outlier among peer nations. We shouldn't fool ourselves into believing that even if the family separations end, we will have proven ourselves a compassionate country towards our most vulnerable. There is so much ,ore we can, and should, do.
Why Trump country is unfazed by the child separation crisis "People who are accustomed to cruelty, on the giving and receiving ends alike, are not very likely to find such a policy appalling."

Trump's Migrant Family Policy Now Moves To The Courts
Why are so many migrants crossing the U.S. border? It often starts with an escape from violence in Central America Many migrant families crossing the U.S. border are often times escaping from violence in Central America “We were witnesses when two of my husband’s cousins were killed and now they are looking for us, too,” said a mother from Honduras, a country with one of the highest murder rates in the world.
Holding migrant children in tent cities costs more than keeping them with parents: report Newly obtained federal data shows that separating migrant children from their families and placing them in “tent cities” costs taxpayers over three times more than keeping families together in detention facilities.
Why a Rogue President Was Forced to Back Down on Family Separation "Although there has been a spike in the number of asylum seekers in recent months, the overall number of undocumented immigrants coming into the United States from Mexico and other Latin American countries is significantly lower than it was a decade ago. THERE IS NO "CRISIS" at the southern border, except the humanitarian one of Trump’s own making. Trump’s picture of the United States being swamped—or, in his words, “infested”—by Latino migrants is a fantasy that he concocted to whip up the racial fears and antipathies of his core supporters."

Migrants risk the dangerous trip to the U.S. because it’s safer than staying home “It doesn't matter how forceful the policies are at the border. People are going to go north, because the alternative is to stay home and to risk their own lives,” said Jason Marczak of the Atlantic Council.

Don't stop with family separation. End the whole immigration prison system The question Americans need to ask themselves next is this: Why are we imprisoning immigrants or asylum seekers at all?
The border crisis is a reminder that Trump has no idea what he’s doing “If Trump wants to make solving the problem a major priority, he needs to make Central America a major policy priority. Instead, he’s picked a secretary of state with no experience in the region, made himself politically toxic by calling El Salvador a 'shithole country,' embroiled the country in pointless fights with Mexico over NAFTA and a border wall, repeatedly threatened to end aid to Honduras for no reason, and decided not to show up at the Summit of the Americas.” — Matt Yglesias

We can welcome the tired, the poor, the yearning to be free – and still be free ourselves. We can help the very hungry afford food, the very sick get care, the very cold get shelter – without jeopardizing our own dinner, health or bed. If America can’t figure out how to amass the resources, the courage, the boldness, and the political will to ensure NO child suffers on our shores – then who will? - Congressman Joe Kennedy III — US Representative for Massachusetts District 4

Trading 'One Form of Child Abuse for Another,' Trump Executive Order Called a Sham, Not a Fix "Let's be clear about what this executive order does: Instead of imprisoning children in separate internment camps away from their parents, this administration will now imprison children in the same internment camps as their parents."
How Will Detained Children Find Their Parents?
For families who have already been separated, policy change doesn't guarantee reunification They crossed the border as families. Now, as some parents face the prospect of being sent back across it, many have no way of knowing how much deeper into the United States their children may have been sent without them.
Trump’s new order on families at the border raises even more questions about what happens next for child migrants Trump's executive order replaces one controversial policy, that of separating migrant families, with another: holding them in detention indefinitely.
Rep. Mark Takano: Trump's family separation policy echoes my family's World War II internment. That damage lasted decades. "The damage done to those interned by their own government was so undeniable that President Ronald Reagan signed legislation in 1988 formally apologizing ... When Reagan took this action, it seemed as though America had learned the lessons of this mistake."

Pope criticizes Trump administration on immigration, child separation Speaking to Reuters , the Pope said he supported recent statements by US Catholic bishops who called the separation of children from their parents "contrary to our Catholic values" and "immoral."

Why, one exterminates it. “Infest” is the essential, and new, word here.

Today is World Refugee Day.
If you've been fortunate enough to have been born in America, imagine for a moment if circumstance had placed you somewhere else. Imagine if you'd been born in a country where you grew up fearing for your life, and eventually the lives of your children. A place where you finally found yourself so desperate to flee persecution, violence, and suffering that you'd be willing to travel thousands of miles under cover of darkness, enduring dangerous conditions, propelled forward by that very human impulse to create for our kids a better life.
That's the reality for so many of the families whose plights we see and heart-rending cries we hear. And to watch those families broken apart in real time puts to us a very simple question: are we a nation that accepts the cruelty of ripping children from their parents’ arms, or are we a nation that values families, and works to keep them together? Do we look away, or do we choose to see something of ourselves and our children?
Our ability to imagine ourselves in the shoes of others, to say “there but for the grace of God go I,” is part of what makes us human. And to find a way to welcome the refugee and the immigrant – to be big enough and wise enough to uphold our laws and honor our values at the same time – is part of what makes us American. After all, almost all of us were strangers once, too. Whether our families crossed the Atlantic, the Pacific, or the Rio Grande, we’re only here because this country welcomed them in, and taught them that to be an American is about something more than what we look like, how our last names sound, or the way we worship. To be an American is to have a shared commitment to an ideal – that all of us are created equal, and all of us deserve the chance to become something better.
That’s the legacy our parents and grandparents and generations before created for us, and it’s something we have to protect for the generations to come. But we have to do more than say “this isn’t who we are.” We have to prove it – through our policies, our laws, our actions, and our votes.

"Never trust anyone who sells you the solution to a problem you didn't know about until you met them. Their goal isn't to fix the problem. It's to manufacture demand for what they want to sell you.
“Nazi Jew hating was not a statement of fact but a declaration of intent … What the Nazis were doing was not describing what was true, but what would have to be true to justify what they planned to do next.” -Hannah Arendt

What we're seeing unfold now is what they had planned to do. It's sickeningly unsurprising.' - Tim D.
