During an appearance at a Speaker in the House event in New York, Pelosi described lobbying faith-based organizations that support Trump to get them to oppose the mass deportations that had been scheduled for this past weekend.
Then, she spoke about the phone call she had with Trump last week, during which she apparently convinced him to postpone the raids.
So when I spoke to the president, I said Look, Im a mom, I have five kids,
nine grandchildren, and you, children are scared, Pelosi said. Youre scaring the children of America. Not just those families, but their neighbors and their communities. Youre scaring the children.'
And I do think that some of the faith-based groups did weigh in with the president, I hope so, and now we have to continue to keep that pressure on, Pelosi added. To remove all doubt that we, in our country, respect people for their dignity and worth, their spark of divinity, respect them for their rights being in the United States America, and recognizing that families belong together.

(115,661 posts)Not just the ones who are here now, but those who are considering coming here to seek asylum. Trump wants to do terrible things to the people who make it here in order to scare potential asylum seekers away (and back to their own countries where other terrible things will happen to them).

(2,945 posts)I shout, the exact same words that I said when I spoke nicely, but when I shout the same words they pay attention. Could it be because there is an intent behind the shouted words that say I am going to do whatever it takes to get you to obey, and not an intent behind the nicely stated words? Is that what's missing in our communication with trumpians -- our intent to follow through with what we are asking them to do nicely?
I'm tired of being nice.

Checked Rome, nada word, and down my list I go, looking for any sign any church has done anything for our precious children. If they don't stand to defend the children then they will never stand for anything. imo

He is not scaring the kids. He is traumatizing them. This will stay with these kids for the rest of their lives - and quite likely be passed to their own children. This is industrialized child abuse, for no other reason than to satisfy the sick minds of Trump supporters who thrive on cruelty
