Family values Republican style.
I missed this last week, but buried in a somewhat minor Policy Manual update, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services announced that it may now start placing undocumented immigrants into removal proceedings when a family member files a visa petitions to help them (eventually) "fix their papers."

Trump’s agenda is deeply unpopular. Republican members of Congress, especially in swing states, need to wake up and start speaking out, or risk losing their seats next year.

The dog that led a 2-year-old boy to safety after he spent a night alone in the Arizona wilderness last week is being praised for his heroism with an influx of gifts from strangers.

"Toys, chew toys, snacks, you name it, just a little bit of everything," his owner tells NBC affiliate KPNX of Mesa.

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”
I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff
