Classic take on Stockholm syndrome—create the situation and then get an atta-boy for a gesture only needed because of the situation he put us in. This, the $90 checks…way too little too late Trump says he won't let Iran strike L.A. or San Diego: 'Not going to let that happen' - Los Angeles Times.

The Trump administration will start selecting lawyers for unaccompanied minors. Meaning the judges work for Donald Trump, the prosecutors work for Trump, and now the attorneys representing children will work for Trump. This is a rigged system that will result in more untold horrors for these kids.
