Shows that Trumpistas had no intent other than stealing children and putting them up for adoption or for sale – otherwise, there would be paperwork connecting to their parents!

Psychologist Michal Kosinski says artificial intelligence can detect your sexuality and politics just by looking at your face. What if he’s right?
Vladimir Putin was not in attendance, but his loyal lieutenants were. On 14 July last year, the Russian prime minister, Dmitry Medvedev, and several members of his cabinet convened in an office building on the outskirts of Moscow. On to the stage stepped a boyish-looking psychologist, Michal Kosinski, who had been flown from the city centre by helicopter to share his research. “There was Lavrov, in the first row,” he recalls several months later, referring to Russia’s foreign minister. “You know, a guy who starts wars and takes over countries.” Kosinski, a 36-year-old assistant professor of organisational behaviour at Stanford University, was flattered that the Russian cabinet would gather to listen to him talk. “Those guys strike me as one of the most competent and well-informed groups,” he tells me. “They did their homework. They read my stuff.”
Kosinski’s “stuff” includes groundbreaking research into technology, mass persuasion and artificial intelligence (AI) – research that inspired the creation of the political consultancy Cambridge Analytica. Five years ago, while a graduate student at Cambridge University, he showed how even benign activity on Facebook could reveal personality traits – a discovery that was later exploited by the data-analytics firm that helped put Donald Trump in the White House.
Trump ‘will empower the Kremlin’ if he continues to undermine Nato

Sir Malcolm Rifkind says Theresa May should warn the US leader on his UK visit of consequences of weakening alliance
Theresa May should tell Donald Trump during his visit to Britain this week that he will wreck his own mission to “make America great again”, and instead empower the Kremlin, if he continues to undermine Nato, the former Tory foreign secretary, Sir Malcolm Rifkind, has said.
Senior UK politicians and diplomats believe the next 10 days of international diplomacy – during which the US president will also attend a Nato summit in Brussels and hold talks with President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki – will be vital in determining the future strength of the western alliance as a bulwark against Russian aggression.

Immigrant Kids Separated From Parents to Receive Legal Representation Via LA Justice Fund Thanks to LA County Supes
On Tuesday, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved a motion to extend a pot of money called the Los Angeles Justice Fund to kids and parents separated after crossing the border into the United States. According to the U.S. Office of Refugee Resettlement, 104 of the thousands of immigrant kids removed from their parents are currently in LA County or in the greater LA area. (None of the separated children are in the custody of LA County, however, according to county officials.)
“LA County will always stand with immigrants and asylum seekers,” said Supervisor Hilda Solis, who authored the motion with Supervisor Janice Hahn, and who championed the creation of the LA Justice Fund.
Immigration courts have served kids as young as three years old notices to appear in court, Solis and Hahn noted in their motion. Lawyers are not appointed to represent the kids in court. Instead, the children are handed a list of organizations that may offer them legal help.
“No one in this country, let alone a small child, should be forced to defend themselves in court alone,” Hahn said. “LA County has already voiced its strong opposition to the policy separating families at the border, and with this action today we can do our part to help these children as they navigate the court system to be reunited with their families.”
The LA Justice Fund is a $10 million partnership between LA County, the city of LA, the Weingart Foundation, and the California Community Foundation. A total of $2 million came from the city, $3 million from the county, and $5 million from philanthropic organizations.
So far, seventeen non-profits in Los Angeles County have received $7.45 million from the LA Justice Fund to provide legal representation to immigrants facing deportation under the Trump Administration.
The grantees include Public Counsel, the Loyola Immigrant Justice Legal Clinic, the USC Immigration Clinic, Southwestern Law School’s Immigration Law Clinic, and the Vera Institute of Justice’s Center on Immigration and Justice.
“Los Angeles County has not stood idly by as this Administration abuses children and their parents who are simply trying to escape poverty and violence,” said Solis. “Family separation is cruel and a grave injustice for the more than 2,300 children who were physically torn away from their parents.”
