The Trump administration
does not approach this mission lightly, and we intend to continue our good faith efforts to reunify families.”

John Schnatter allegedly used the slur during an exercise designed to help him avoid public scandal, according to Forbes
The founder of Papa John’s Pizza has quit his company’s chairman seat Wednesday night after apologizing for hurling a racial slur during a sensitivity training call.
John Schnatter resigned from the 33-year-old pizza chain after his profane use of the N-word from May surfaced and the Papa John’s International, Inc., stock spiraled.
“News reports attributing the use of inappropriate and hurtful language to me during a media training session regarding race are true. Regardless of the context, I apologize. Simply stated, racism has no place in our society,” founder John Schnatter said in a statement, hours before he stepped down.
Shares of Papa John’s fell by up to 6 percent in intraday trading, wiping out roughly $96 million in market value.
The stock rebounded slightly at closing, down 4.8 percent.
The company said it would begin its search for a new board chairman.
Schnatter, 56, used the slur during an exercise designed to help him avoid public scandal after he blamed protesting NFL athletes were to blame for dipping profits.
Stormy Daniels has been arrested in Ohio, according to her lawyer.
Stormy Daniels, the adult film star suing President Donald Trump after an alleged affair, was arrested during a performance in Ohio early Thursday.
Lawyer Michael Avenatti said that his client, who was paid $130,000 not to discuss the alleged affair during the 2016 campaign, was “arrested in Columbus, Ohio, performing the same act she has performed across the nation at nearly a hundred strip clubs.”
“She was arrested for allegedly allowing a customer to touch her while on stage in a non sexual manner! Are you kidding me?” Avenatti tweeted. “They are devoting law enforcement resources to sting operations for this? There has to be higher priorities!!! #Setup #Basta”
Daniels will be arraigned on three misdemeanor counts of touching a patron at a “sexually oriented” business.
Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, launched the tour shortly after she began to talk about her interactions with Trump, which she says also includes being threatened in a Las Vegas parking garage and intimidated into staying silent.
“This was a setup & politically motivated. It reeks of desperation. We will fight all bogus charges,” Avenatti said.
