The FEMA money for Hurricane relief was raided for $1Million to pay for detention camps for immigrants just as a storm blows into the Gulf. In defiance of the Court order to reunite children taken from parents at our borders.

The Trump administration?s ?temporary? prison camp for unaccompanied migrant kids and some migrant kids kidnapped from their parents at the border isn?t just going to continue through the end of the year, it?s going to get even bigger. Officials are seeking to increase the capacity of the Tornillo, Texas prison camp by the thousands, from a reported 400 beds earlier this summer, to 3,800 beds.
?These temporary beds will be brought online incrementally as needed,? claimed <https://www.texastribune.org/2018/09/11/federal-government-greatly-expand-tornillo-shelter-unaccompanied-minor/> a Health and Human Services (HHS) spokesperson. ?We will continue to assess the need for this temporary shelter at Tornillo Land Port of Entry in Tornillo, Texas, based on the projected need for beds and current capacity of the program.? Except, the government has always called this prison camp ?temporary? because they think it doesn?t make it sound as bad.
In reality, the Trump administration?s wish has always been to detain migrant kids indefinitely?just look at the new proposal <https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/9/6/1793759/-Trump-admin-seeking-to-eviscerate-standards-protecting-migrant-kids-under-U-S-custody> seeking to eviscerate standards protecting migrant kids under U.S. custody, and as The Texas Tribune reports, ?the decision marks the third time the facility's operations have been extended since it opened in June.? And as officials seek to detain more kids and for longer periods of time, they?re also making it harder for kids to get out of these jails.
Migrants kids can be released to relatives already in the U.S. or other sponsors, but ?immigrant rights groups have asserted all year,? The Texas Tribune continued, ?that the administration has created unnecessary barriers for families or sponsors willing to take in the unaccompanied minors. After the family separation crisis, critics complained that some families were made to undergo more vetting than others.?
The administration currently has nearly 13,000 migrant children under HHS custody, the vast majority kids who came to the U.S. on their own and seeking refuge. More than 400 are children who continue to remain separated from their parents in blatant violation of a judge?s order. All are at risk of ongoing emotional and physical trauma, and for many, the damage has already been life-altering <https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/9/11/1795012/-One-kidnapped-migrant-child-languished-in-a-Chicago-facility-for-over-a-year-documents-reveal>, with distraught children forcibly medicated under custody.
Child detention is child abuse, and it?s on the hands of every complicit legislator and administration official doing nothing to protect these kids, especially those who are under court order to do so. ?This administration has resorted to putting kids in tents rather than pushing for comprehensive immigration reform while Congress sits complicit with inaction," said state Rep. C?sar Blanco.

Concentration camps for toddlers.
This is a national shame that the United States will bear for generations.

Cruelty to children is a feature of this depraved administration. I have former friends and a few extended family members I am no longer on speaking terms with because I simply cannot associate with people who would support such a thing. (And no, I don?t feel any relief from a glory-seeking ?anonymous? mole in the White House; that just switches from chaotic evil to lawful evil.)

Hate to be a conspiracy theorist here, but the thought has occured to me that some of these places are being built to house protestors. Or whomever they might deem to be a political enemy. You know damn well Trump and the deplorables would do it in a heartbeat if they could.

Pardon my rant, and sorry to unload, but there is something very wrong and evil going on with this administration. From these camps for illegally detaining children (or whoever they decide to put in them) , moving FEMA emergency response funds to fund ICE operations, all the attacks on social programs and those that advocate for them and the common good, pushing through an obviously unqualified choice for the Supreme Court that will protect and do the bidding of the White House, the list goes on and on and on. Do any of you honestly believe that what we are watching unfold on the East Coast isn?t really just murder in slow motion? The Administration will provide little to no help for the storm victims. They-don?t-effing-care. Let?s also not forget that there is a highly trained Russian, who hates us and what we stand for, whispering in Donnie?s ear. Giving him advice and orders. Most of the Republican Party is complicit in these atrocities. I am barely surprised anymore by what goes on. It all seems like a puzzle to which they keep adding pieces. All I can say is thank god for Rachel Maddow and others like her. They are the only reason I can keep up with it all and keep it all in perspective. We all need to pay attention and get involved before we find ourselves unable to get out of the traps it seems they are building. if nothing else, make damned sure you let your Congress Critters know how you feel and then get out and vote. Help people to vote, if you can. It may be our last chance.

I went on a rant last night about wanting to see every single person involved with this maladministration being made to pay ? & pay hard ? for their part in what the Republicans are doing to the country. But after reading this diary, I realized that they all need to be made aware NOW that they?re operating on borrowed time & are going to pay. All the people involved in every aspect of this ? not just the people at the top of the Republican food chain, but ALL of them, from every ICE agent to the people working inside these ?facilities? ? need to be made very aware that when the Democrats take power, retribution is going to be swift & thorough & it?s going to go from top to the very bottom-. People need to think about the actions they take today in terms of what?s going to happen to them when they no longer have the cover of a Trumpian government to hide behind & that the future will judge them on how they behaved today.

This is possible because of this nation's complete indifference to issues of Due process, liberty and privacy as it relates to the rights of children and parents. You cannot cherry pick human rights. As long as you continue to support a system that is keeping nearly half a million kids apart from their familes every day, it should come as no surprise that such a system can easily swell to gobble up a few immigrant kids. The solution is to reaffirm the rights of children to remain with kith and kin even if for some reason they cannot remain with a parent. Until we acknowledge this basic human right of children, all children will remain vulnerable to such self serving exploitation. The foster care system is a racket no less exploitative than charter schools - using children as IOUs to shift federal dollars into private pockets. Put the focus back on building families not destroying them. Everything that has been said about the deep and irreparable harm being done to children by separating children from their families and fostering them to strangers is true and has been confirmed by research. Immigrant family separation is just the wee tip of a massive iceberg mostly composed of the forcible separation of citizen families. When people continue to ignore and dismiss this much larger issue, the hypocrisy is too great to be ignored. The excitement is over a way to attack Trump and was never about the horrific trauma to the children. It is just another group of people using children's pain for their own ends. And that is exactly why it happens. No one really cares about any of these kids except for what tbey can get out of it, whether it is to attack Trump or get their greedy paws on some federal funds or punish a minority for not being White enough. Until I see someone stand up for the overarching principle that children belong with their families, immigrant or not, I remain less than impressed with these crocodile tears. Justina Pelletier had two parents as well as respectable aunts, uncles, granparents and grown siblings. As long as The State can steal a child such as that from so many loving family members no child is ever safe in this warped and callous nation!!! We should hold these things to be self evident -- that children belong with their families. One parent may be unfit but there are other family. Children do not spring onto this earth from a vacuum. They have a history. They have a legacy. They have a family! They DO NOT belong to The State.
