The Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Homeland Security have been in a “scramble” to get the information to reunite almost 3,000 children with their parents in the family separations fallout, The New York Times reports. Two sources told the newspaper that records linking parents to their children “have disappeared” or have been “destroyed,” making positive identifications between children and family an uphill battle. HHS also sent out an email looking for volunteers to help scan through about 12,000 children’s records to determine which children were separated from their parents by the U.S. government and who arrived unaccompanied.

Subject: Second Civil War Report from the Front
My dearest Lisa,
July 4th was a horrible day. Some MAGAs learned of my past as a biology teacher and derided me as a “goddamned evolutionist.” They caught me at the Natural History Museum and demanded I renounce Darwin.
I told them that if man was descended from monkeys, Donald Trump is proof we have not descended far. They all came to attention and saluted when I mentioned their Dear Leader’s name. That’s when I escaped to my safe space.
Sherman was right: war is hell. Or maybe Mr. Peabody said that. Whoever it was, a veggie burger and a hug would do me no harm right about now. With luck I shall return from the front soon.
Yours in solidarity,
~Rick
Fear not, dear Rick, the redcaps are using the strategy the redcoats did on the front in our days of yore -- we can see them coming a mile away.
Stay armed with facts. It's our only hope.
Fistbump,
Lisa
The Department of Justice (DOJ) is reportedly asking a federal judge for more time to reunite the thousands of families separated at the U.S.-Mexico border.

President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida has asked the federal government for permission to hire 40 foreign workers, according to data released Thursday by the U.S. Labor Department.
The Palm Beach resort wants to hire waiters and waitresses who would be employed using H-2B visas, which businesses typically obtain if they can establish that there are not enough American workers able or willing to fill the temporary positions.
