The FUD Factor

I'm inclined to agree with Old Dog on this one, "panic" is the wrong word for it. "Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt" more accurately describes the government tactic in question.  I still think, though, that it's more likely that the space aliens are covering up for the government than it is that the government is covering up for the space aliens.  Unless the government and the space aliens are in it together!  That would explain a lot of the strange things that the government keeps coming up with.  I've had the feeling all along that Donald Trump is not of this world.  That whole Trump-Russian thing might just be a red herring to keep us from finding out who he is really in collusion with.

Speaking of fake news, how about the big uproar over our government "losing" almost 1500 Mexican children?  Turns out that the only reason they can't find them is that the guardians the government entrusted these kids to are refusing to answer their telephones, probably because they are illegals themselves.  What I want to know is why the children weren't turned over to the Mexican authorities in the first place?  They are here illegally, most of them through no fault of their own, and their parents are in jail because of it.  You can't rightly put the kids in jail for what their parents did, but that doesn't mean they should be allowed to stay here.

I seem to remember that, some years ago, there was this little Cuban boy who's mother drowned trying to swim to shore after their refugee boat sank off the coast of Florida.  The kid was rescued and he had relatives in Florida who were willing to claim him, but the courts ruled that he had to be sent back to Cuba to live with his estranged father.  Why is it okay to turn an innocent child over to the evil Communists, but not okay to turn a bunch of them over to the Mexicans who, by some accounts, are really nice people who should be welcomed into our country with open arms?
