Shame on us
https://theintercept.com/2019/05/21/...whistleblower/
Reading this, and hearing the story tonight on NBC Nightly News, sickens me.
Mistreatment of immigrants, in particular the mentally ill, has been going on for years.
It's not a problem caused solely by the Trump administration, although
matters appear to have gotten worse. Basic human rights are largely ignored.
Every one of us is now compliant in criminal offenses. This has to stop.

Our review of more than 8,400 solitary confinement incident reports spanning 2012 to early 2017 show that in nearly a third of the cases, detained immigrants were described as having a mental illness. The records show at least 373 instances of individuals being placed in isolation because they were potentially suicidal, and another 200-plus cases of people already in solitary confinement being moved to “suicide watch” or another form of observation — in many cases another solitary cell.

I didn't see anything in the linked piece that suggests that.

The immigration crisis and all related issues with it is ALL Trumps fault. If we still had a crappy economy, many would want to go back home after a few months rather than stay and tell all their friends how great it is here.

Its not as if we drag them across the border and put them here. Where would you suggest finding the resources and required professional ability to deal with the numbers we're now seeing? Ask your democratic leaders that promote and encourage their coming here for answers. They have none. They want them here to populate their agenda and eventually vote for fake promises thats bringing them here in the first place. Trump is a non-factor.

Presidential nominee Gillibrand wants to assign a lawyer to each illegal immigrant at government costs. I don't see why we can't assign a psychiatrist to each as well.

1. Where is the evidence that backs up the whistle blower?
2. We can solve this by sending everyone back at time of capture.
3. Perhaps the idiot Upchuck and the Dingbat should spend more time working on this and stop the sabre rattling over Trump. After all, both of these hack were in charge a lot longer than 0bama and Trump combined, so guess who owns it?

Gilligan is an attorney, she can volunteer some of her time.

Kind of like Gore with climate change, in office for 8 years but didn't throw a fit about it until after he was out of it.

Dems DO NOT solve problems - they EXPLOIT them.
No debate on this. Case closed.
The total incompetence of UpChuck and Dingbat are the root cause for this.
Shame on them , not me.
Shame on those who keep voting them back into office.
Shame of those who support them.
But not me, horsey, not me.
