The judge needs to call Azar and Nielsen before him the day after they miss the deadline, hold these “putative humans” in contempt, and immediately jail them until all of the children are returned.

The irony, of course, is that he couldn’t hold them in a cage in a freezing room with only a thin pad and a mylar blanket because it would be considered cruel and unusual punishment.

They deleted the records. People should go to jail over this. Those at the top should resign immediately. It is time to call for international observers.

They need more time… now just why does that not surprise me…as far as I believe you could give them 100 years and they still would not have enough time. I believe it is simply because they have not kept records and don’t have a clue how to reunite kids and parents. That is the main reason why they are now thinking of running everyone through DNA screenings.

Is there any way he could send them to be incarcerated in the facilities housing the children?

The government is also asking the court to leave out of the ruling parents who have already been deported, citing “the complexities involved in locating individuals who have been removed, determining whether they wish to be reunified with their child, and facilitating such a reunification outside of the United States.”

Ranting => “Besides we’ve already given those kids to Betsy Devoss to adopt out to good Republican Christian families.”

What a colossal, screwed up mess.

Trump’s HHS is simply an agency of child kidnappers, which is fine for a real estate mogul who admires Boko Haram’s hardline, authoritarian practices.

HHS “custody” is invalid. It TOOK them to terrorize them.

STOP IT!

“claiming that “potential traffickers” could be making “false claims of parentage” but providing no documentation of this happening.”

You can bet your asshole that they’re going to use the DNA tests to fake proof of it though. That’s why they want more time. It’ll be just like their efforts to fake evidence of voter fraud. “Proving” that illegals are all child traffickers would be like a wet dream come true all over their freshly bleached white sheets and hoods.

lack the time for ICE to conduct criminal background checks on the parents.

ICE should start by conducting criminal background checks on themselves and submitting to DNA testing to be matched against the rape kit backlogs.

Wonder why they don’t want to return the children siezed prior to the filing of the suit? Those kids were already handed over to baby sellers and traffickers? For sure, they were not DNA typed,

Speaking of the Southern District of California. The Federal Marshals there have their TVs tuned to Fox news on huge flat screen TVs. They also chain and shackle all prisoners as a matter of course “for safety” in what they call “three piece suits” which consist of handcuffs connected to a waist chain and ankle chains.

They have no fucking idea which kids belong with which parents.

State-sponsored kidnapping and child abuse, and intentional infliction of emotional and physical distress.

There must be accountability for these outrages. And we must stay outraged about what is being done by “our” government … at least, the current government of the country we still live in.

Now if I gave an airline or FedEx, or the post office a month to find my luggage or packages, and they said that they needed more time, I would have to assume those are lost forever.

Is that what the administration is saying, they will never return the kids?

I doubt that there is baby selling going on – it’s mostly a blend of incompetence, corruption, and overwork.

I see no positive outcome for many of these children.

They need the same chains and shackles that the immigrants get.

Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar insisted to reporters on a conference call on Thursday that his agency was ready to meet the looming deadline imposed by federal courts for reuniting the thousands of immigrant children in his custody with their parents.

But later that same evening, the Trump administration asked the California judge overseeing the case for an extension, claiming the tight timeline is putting them at risk of violating their “statutory obligations to ensure the safety of children before transferring them out of HHS custody.”

These assholes literally can’t tell the same story from one day to the next. I think their excuses are bullshit. They can’t comply because they never planned to track where parents and kids were so they could later match and reunite them, and they don’t dare admit that. since the plan from Day 1 was to treat human beings like cattle.
