Bethany Christian Services, an adoption center with financial ties to [Education Secretary] Betsy DeVos, has taken 81 immigrant children who were forcibly separated from their parents at the border. Most have had no contact with their families. Theyre charging $700 per child per night. This isnt foster care, this is state-sponsored kidnapping.

But eye on the crime always. First, rescuing the children. Then finding out just what kind of riches are being reaped from government contracts trafficking in kidnapped children.

(36,540 posts)They said they had been separated for 55 days. That would be $38,500.
BTW, it was absolutely gut wrenching to watch this reunion. For two months this little girl wondered if she'd ever see her mother again. This is on all of us if we can't stop it. You can find it on Jake Tapper's FB page, The Lead:

These guys have received many large donations from the DeVos family foundation since 2001, according to Snopes. DeVos family members have served on the executive board, and Brian DeVos (cousin of Betsy DeVos' husband) served as executive vice president as recently as 2015.
I certainly hope that media reporters in western Michigan are contacting this organization and finding out what the hell is going on there. People had better be answering their questions too.
