laws clearly articulate in ensuring that we do not deliver aliens into the hands of their percent kurts. the american civil lib er tees leader praised the judge s decision and the white house responded this morning calling it meritless. a stunning admission from the woman who leads the united states border patrol. she, too, was a member of that secret facebook group where members mocked detained im immigrants. the group was called i m 10 to 15, referring to the border patrol code for undocumented migrants in custody. carla provost we ve had on this program said she reported her membership immediately after the news broke about the shocking commentary. not only did i self-report, i turned my entire facebook account over to the office of professional responsibility. provost has been on this program more than once as you said, poppy. she denied knowing about any of the content because she says she
