Alot of child sex trafficking occurs in this country. Coincidence that the U.S pulled out of the U.N. Human Rights Council while all this is going down?

Wouldn't put anything past this administration at this point.

I OFTEN MOVE CHILDREN TO NYC FROM THE SOUTHERN BORDER AT 12:45AM, NOTHING TO SEE HERE

UHM! That's trafficking

 

[aepps20]

Aepps, I'm glad you're around for comic relief because this has been a hard week.

For anyone curious as to what will probably happen to some of these children, as far as I know:

- They will deport parents without children

- They will be placed into foster care and declared "abandoned" after a certain time, even though these parents have no way to stay in touch with the court.

- They will be given to new families, sometimes with incentives like 1k/month per child, according to flyers that are already out.

Absolutely unconscionable.

Happy to do my part. The deplorables aren't going to win. Resist my friend RESIST.
















LIBBIE CONJECTURE AND INNUENDO OF COURSE.

Supreme Court rules states can force online retailers to collect sales tax

The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that states can compel retailers to collect sales taxes even if they don't have a physical presence in the state.

The 5-4 decision overturns a 1992 Supreme Court precedent that effectively barred states from collecting such taxes, and could leave consumers paying more for online purchases as cash-strapped states tap a rich vein of new revenue.

He has to be around people that actually like him so he can feel better about himself.

It's his safe-place.

White House releases sweeping proposal to reorganize government
The White House on Thursday unveiled a sweeping plan to reorganize how the federal government is structured, including controversial proposals to impose work requirements on assistance programs.

“Businesses change all the time,” said White House Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney. “Government doesn't, and one of the things you get when you hire a businessman to become president is you bring this attitude from the private sector.”

The plan touches a wide range of agencies, but one of its main proposals is to move the food stamp program, officially known as SNAP, out of the Department of Agriculture and into the Department of Health and Human Services. That department would then be renamed the Department of Health and Public Welfare.

A new Council on Public Assistance would then oversee programs gathered in one place, including food stamps and Medicaid, and have the power to impose uniform work requirements in those programs, a move strongly opposed by Democrats.

The reorganization plan faces tough odds in Congress, where even aside from the dispute over work requirements, any reorganization faces opposition from congressional committees that could lose power if their jurisdictions change.


Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.), the top Democrat on the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, dismissed the plan as dead on arrival even before it was official unveiled, calling it a move to propose “futile reorganizations of the federal government just to have a new talking point.”


“Democrats and Republicans in Congress have rejected President Trump’s proposals to drastically gut investments in education, health care, and workers — and he should expect the same result for this latest attempt to make government work worse for the people it serves,” she added.

The proposal would also merge the Departments of Education and Labor, with the idea that education and job training should go together.

Another proposal that is sure to be controversial is to privatize the United States Postal Service.

Another would merge the Department of Agriculture’s food safety regulators with those in the Food and Drug Administration. Officials said that would reform the current system, where a cheese pizza is regulated by the FDA for safety, while a pepperoni pizza is regulated by the Department of Agriculture.
