Her family was on their way to an emergency medical checkup when they were detained.
Jfc, people voted for this nonsense. www.whitehouse.gov/articles/202...

EncyclopΓ¦dia Britannica will continue to use βGulf of Mexicoβ for a few reasons:
-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.
-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.βs authority to rename it is ambiguous.

Trump just revoked the Equal Employment Opportunity executive order of 1965, rolling back 60 years of progress on civil rights.
The order had prohibited employment discrimination in federal hiring based on race, religion, and gender.

Trump just withdrew the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement.
The US now joins Iran, Libya, and Yemen as the only countries in the world not in the agreement.
You are a source I've grown to trust over the years, so is there anything you'd recommend for reading up on his family's background? I find myself to be morbidly curious, given all of...this.
