      Because:

      A) You didn’t read the article, and thusly come in with your usual “democrats bad” without realizing that most of the reason these people haven’t been reunited is nobody knows (because there are no records or incorrect records) with whom they should be re-united

      B) We have elections in this country and “dems being in power” doesn’t mean that they’ll stay there…because they’ll leave after having lost an election.

      The Dems don’t have control of every branch of government, so there’s nothing they can do. They’re powerless. Fortunately, they’re working hard to cultivate a bipartisan coalition of influential figures, such as Jeff Flake, John Negroponte, Elliot Abrams, John Bolton, and Dick Cheney. Together, we’re confident that they can retake the White House and govern from the political center, rather than deviating to the extremes like during the Donald Trump and Joe Biden administrations.

      By bringing neoconservative Republicans into the big Democrat tent, we can achieve a homogeneous and irrefutable understanding of how to govern. This is the only way to reunite those 1,300 children with their families. And if you suggest to the contrary, you’re hurting Kamala Harris in her campaign to protect American democracy from a tyrant who might take power by cheating his way to victory.

      So go out there and vote. And yell at anyone who doesn’t vote or votes for the wrong candidate. Anyone who doesn’t vote for Harris is responsible for those orphaned children. It’s their fault. Don’t forget it.

        Ah yes, Republicans get into power, do all kinds of evil shit. Democrats get into power, but they’re “powerless” to end it.
        There have been prisoners held in Guantanamo Bay without charge or trial under 2 Democrat presidents.
