INACTION RENDERS CONGRESS IRRESPONSIBLE ON ISSUE
do-nothing Congress to act in a moral way to reunify parent with child. Congress knows what the government has done is just plain wrong, but it long ago ceded any moral or lawful authority to a trumped-up excuse bordering on political incompetence. People and their small children — the most vulnerable among us — are being mistreated in large numbers, and the executive branch (the president) is responsible. Failing to act makes Congress irresponsible.
All that those children, their parents and the collective moral consciousness of the United States of America have on their side is a federal district judge in San Diego.
And all that judge has is a bunch of excuses from bureaucrats working for a president who couldn’t care less.
If we ask today if parents know where their children are, most of us can answer in the affirmative. But, if we ask our government where the children they have taken from their parents are, the answers will not be as forthcoming.
A changing and more dangerous environment in the United States caused parents to make sure they knew where their kids were at night. A changing attitude in our government has now caused some parents to wonder where their kids are all the time.
