I agree with the article that was published by Gabe Ortiz on the Daily Kos about how the migrant families are still torn apart and not reunited with their families yet. The intended audience would be anyone that’s fighting rights or protesting for the migrant children and how the family is still not reunited, I see this short article like an update for the people. I also see it as a way to put Trump and the Trump officials on blast for not doing anything about passing the deadline by not one or two days but by 85. I feel like the article could have been a little longer and more detailed because this is such a strong topic but other than that I believe the article made the point clear. The publisher overall explains how they as in the trump administration are being cruel by keeping these kids locked up and away from their family. Not only are they being cruel that way but it also explains how they are being cruel by doing nothing about passing the deadline to let these kids reunite with their families. Even though they are slowly moving them to reunification they are not caring enough to organize everything correctly which is causing the parents to not be informed on picking up the kids which eventually they have to send them back under the U.S. custody. With that being said the author's overall argument is to show and expose the trump administration for not only being careless and cruel to these kids by locking them up away from their family they are cruel enough to not care about improving that system and sending those kids back home.

This CNN Article published by Chris Cillizza has discussed many of the major differences between agreeing with President trump on US Government issues while on the other hand disagreeing with him on major life decisions. Cillizza talks about how Trump has been deeply unpredictable on all sorts of things, but he has been remarkably stable at court picks. The court picks are what they use as the base of the argument. Trump is unpredictable and that’s mainly the big problem here. If we had a president that we could trust then we wouldn’t have many disagreements throughout the US that mainly concern him. Cillizza is one of many who agree with another resource by the name of Kavanaugh. Kavanaugh has just been chosen as Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee and his confirmation to the court appeared to be sealed with three key senators deciding he's worthy of being confirmed. It's a constant battle with Trump and his Supreme Court but it’s not like they have a choice. Who would want to go against the President?
