Sorry, kids, we deported your parents, and we don't know where they are. Have a safe trip back to Guatemala.

Denmark will limit the number of 'non-Western' residents in neighbourhoods to 30% to 'reduce the risk of religious and cultural parallel societies':

Edit: I think Singapore does something similar where it restricts where immigrants can live for some period of time.

We cite pandemic response so they don't have to be released in the interior. Merkel shoulda thought of it first.

As I watch drone footage of this bridge on the Today show this morning, I'm wondering if FoxNews is full of shit.

Sucks for these people - would be in a much better position if they had just stayed in Chile or wherever. Sounds like the feds should have done more to communicate the significance of the Temporary Protected Status extension and how it would not apply to those resettled elsewhere, presumably.

Imagine if Congress addressed this so that it didn't swing between inhuman brutality and clueless free-for-all every 4 years!
