Last night while driving home I thought I heard a report on MSNBC (I have sirius now) that tRump wanted undocumented immigrants to build his wall to work off coming here. I've googled lightly but haven't seen a actual report on it, I could be not using the right terms though. Has anyone else heard that? Isn't that basically indentured servitude?

I haven't. Wouldn't be surprised that he didn't think of it. It sounds more like slavery. He does use undocumented workers at his clubs like Mar-A-Lago so he can keep wages low.

Good morning, bloggers!!!

I hope that everyone is doing well.

I have to ask how families are going to be reunited. I think that we are going to see the Trump regime face many lawsuits. Heck, if I was a district attorney I might ask what local and state laws abducting children and flying them from the border to another part of the country might violate.

I would not be surprised if he offered them a pathway to citizenship id they work on the wall -- and then renege on it.

On a personal note, I am trying to make sure that unemployment has everything from my ex-employer.

Also, I will do a recorded sample lesson for the Los Angeles Unified School District later today. I am confident that I will find something for the new school year -- and I am ready to go where I am needed.

I am surprised this hassn;t happened earlier.

Andrea Mitchel is reporting that DOTUS sent Malania to the border!

Turn on MSNBC in Itunes now if you can.

Get some rest. We will manage.

This is from the Huffington Post. We need to end the policy of separating families. My hope is that a new, Democratic-lead Congress will investigate what has happened with the children because I cannot trust this current Congress to conduct honest investigations.


Migrant Children Drugged Without Consent At Government Centers, Court Documents Show
The allegations center on a mental health facility in Texas that has had problems in the past.

By Roque Planas

Staff working on the behalf of the Office of Refugee Resettlement are routinely drugging detained child migrants with psychotropics without their parents’ consent, according to legal filings.

Trump administration officials have repeatedly insisted that the family separation policy they implemented over the last six weeks is humane. But the ongoing lawsuit over the Flores agreement, a 1997 settlement that partly governs the detention of child migrants that the White House hopes to overturn, alleges a litany of wrongdoings at the ORR-contracted facilities.

The drugging allegations are among the most disturbing. One child cited in the lawsuit reported taking up to nine pills in the morning and another seven in the evening, without knowing what the medication was.

“ORR routinely administers children psychotropic drugs without lawful authorization,” a memo filed in the lawsuit on April 16 reads. “When youth object to taking such medications, ORR compels them. ORR neither requires nor asks for a parent’s consent before medicating a child, nor does it seek lawful authority to consent in parents’ stead. Instead, ORR or facility staff sign ‘consent’ forms anointing themselves with ‘authority’ to administer psychotropic drugs to confined children.”


We have fallen far from being a city on a hill.

NY has. You're also expected to report what you purchased online when you file your taxes.

And Amazon does take sales tax on their items and if that's the bulk of e-commerce, that's already covered.

So, who slept the sleep of the dead for 11 hours? This guy! Woke up at the crack of noon. In retrospect, the last couple of days were more stressful than I thought.

There is very little that my black sheep Republican cousin and his wife agree on, but this ridiculously overpriced home is one of them It is smack dab in the middle of town where they live. I did a little checking and it is by far the most expensive home for sale in Willets, CA.

If you are married to Trump supporter, divorce them. I saw this last night after normal blog working hours. It makes a compelling case for such an action.

Stephan Miller, the Nazi in charge of tot concentration camps, is Jewish. I didn't know that.

Does he even realize that if his family hadn't left the Pale, he wouldn't be alive?

It sorta was. I mean the night before last I was about ready to go sleep when my demi-wife texted me since she was having an anxiety attack I couldn't get to sleep after helping her chill. Then before that the shit was hitting the fan.

Is it overpriced? Seems normal to me though I also think it needs a lot of updating and lightening up, but that's just my person preference.

It has no land. The next most expensive property that I could find was about 300K cheaper.

I guess he figures he would have been a Kapo.

You mean like grass? Noticed it was a completely pavered back (not a fan), aerial shot makes it look pretty large. What's the sq footage of that cheaper house?

Places like this in Mendicino County, around Willits tend to have lots of land. This is in the middle of downtown Willets.

As far as square footage, I didn't really look I just looked at the price.

Right! Its the first day of summer and your wearing a jacket outside, in Texas, and I believe there was high humidity too. Who does that?!

Hence the Satan's taint comment Depending on where you are in south Texas, it is hot and humid or just effing hot.
