Happy tariff day, everybody! I’m sure the impact on American farmers will be insignifi....
The current slide comes at a precipitous time for US farmers. They have about 179 million acres of the two crops growing in their fields—a combined land mass equal to nearly two Californias, and just 1 percent less than last year’s plantings. To make a profit on these crops, farmers will have to make at least $4 per bushel on corn and $10.05 on soybeans for the 2018 harvest, a University of Illinois analysis found. Currently, the two commodities fetch $3.43 and $8.40, respectively.

I can’t stop thinking about this tweet while reading about how they’re asking for deadline extensions because they don’t want to commit any resources to parent/child reunifications, and have destroyed some records documenting parenthood.

Apparently immigrants who are in a program to volunteer to serve in our military to earn citizenship are now "quietly" being discharged and not given citizenship. :/

This is real life.
Edit to note that the exchange in court was not literally “let us have an extension so I can dogsit.” The question of what people had on their agenda was brought up to determine when the soonest possible reconvening could occur, and the government’s lawyer mentioned out of town dogsitting....which was then factored in to the scheduling decision.

The reporting on this seems needlessly alarmist. "Dozens" of immigrants were discharged (seemingly for security reasons), yet thousands haven't been.

They have now acknowledged 38 instances of children under 5 years old whose parents are either unknown or cannot not currently be located.
This is not the same as saying there aren’t other children for whom reunification may prove difficult or impossible, for this or other reasons. It is saying that at least 38 children exist who are too young to be able to provide any information to authorities and who may have been orphaned by haphazard cruelty.

I sure hope no one ruins our national civility standards by calling these people racist to their faces.
