Mexico is calling on the United Nations to intervene to prevent the United States from separating immigrant children and parents, the result of the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy.
President Trump last week signed an executive order to end the practice after a global outcry, but the Mexican government made no mention of Trump’s order in a statement released Thursday evening.
The statement said Luis Videgaray, Mexico’s foreign secretary, met Thursday in New York with U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and urged the U.N. to intervene on the issue.
The statement called the separation of families cruel and a violation of human rights. Videgaray had already condemned the practice in remarks on June 18, calling it “cruel and inhuman.”

The "spirit" world is an ancient/present mind control weapon/tool the thieves use to overtake their prey/victims. Good/bad spirits are figments of imagination. The goyim can be easily manipulated by the use of spirit seeds being sewn into "creative minds". It causes the goy to become their own worst enemy, attempting to battle an unreal entity. While, the thieves rob you blind, deaf and very dumbed down. Once "they" got the ignorant masses "believing" in these spirits, both good, bad or "holy", been easy pickens ever since. Goyim are then worried about the wrath of "god" instead of the thieves they no longer can see. Fortunately the goyim are waking up to the scam, but for some, not quick enough. Better now than has ever been for people to see who has been fooling them for thousands of years. It's all mind control.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - A California man who told investigators he was upset about the repeal of net neutrality rules was arrested Friday and is accused of threatening to kill Federal Communication Commission Chairman Ajit Pai's family, authorities said.
Markara Man, 33, of Norwalk told investigators that he sent three emails to Pai in December 2017 because he was angry over Pai's role in repealing the regulations and wanted to scare the chairman.
"I will find your children and I will kill them," Man wrote in one of the emails, according to court documents.
The same email listed the names and addresses of several preschools in Arlington, Virginia, though the chairman's children did not attend any of them, officials said.
In another message, Man accused Pai of being responsible for a child's suicide, and a third email included a photograph of the chairman and a framed photo with his family, authorities said.
When federal agents traced the emails back to Man and questioned him in May, he acknowledged sending them and provided law enforcement officers with a written apology that he sent to Pai, court papers said.
"I'm sorry I made a threat against your kids. That was crossing the line," he wrote in his message.
Man was charged in federal court in Virginia with threatening to murder a U.S. official's immediate family member with the intent to intimidate or interfere with the official's duties. He could face up to 10 years in prison, if convicted.
A telephone number listed for Man in public records rang unanswered Friday. It wasn't immediately clear if he had an attorney who could comment on the allegations.
The FCC voted last year to repeal the Obama-era net neutrality rules that said all web traffic must be treated equally, It gave internet service providers such as Verizon, Comcast and AT&T a free hand to slow or block websites and apps as they see fit or charge more for faster speeds.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Officials say San Francisco will become the first major U.S. city to increase its minimum wage to $15 an hour Sunday under a ballot measure approved by voters in 2014.
City Administrator Naomi Kelly says it will be the first to hit the milestone for all workers. But it won’t be the last. California lawmakers approved a plan two years ago to increase the state’s $10 minimum to $15 by 2022.
A much smaller San Francisco Bay Area city, Emeryville, also will increase its minimum wage for smaller employers to $15 on Sunday. Larger employers have had to pay workers a little over $15 since last July.
Larger employers in Seattle pay workers at least $15 an hour.
Advocates have been urging a $15 minimum, saying workers need a “living wage” to survive.

Attorney General Ken Paxton sent a letter to Fort Worth ISD Superintendent Kent Scribner on Thursday evening demanding he hand over a copy of the district's controversial sixth-grade human sexuality curriculum, which includes lessons about gender identity and sexual orientation.
Paxton claimed in the letter that district officials were repeatedly denying parents access to the curriculum or textbooks, which he said are in use in 22 schools across the district. He said children who asked to take their textbooks home or take a photo of the curriculum were denied.
Paxton cited state and federal laws that give parents access to "all written records of a school district concerning the parent's child" and "the right to inspect and review the education records of their children."
Stand for Fort Worth, a parental rights group opposed to having their children learn about gender identity, has been calling on Fort Worth ISD officials to hand over the textbooks and curriculum for months, arguing the district should have asked their permission before moving forward with the curriculum, according to the Star-Telegram.
They argued that although parents were sent a notice allowing them to opt their children out of the course, the notice was not clear about the content.
Members of the group cheered Paxton's letter on Facebook Thursday night, though they did not immediately respond to a request for comment. "Given the rash of inappropriate behavior by some teachers and the garbage being taught by others, it's imperative that parents remain vigilant and guard against their kids being indoctrinated!" one person wrote.
Fort Worth ISD officials also did not return a request for comment Thursday. State curriculum standards do not require sixth graders to learn about sexual orientation or gender identity, but districts are allowed to add material at their discretion.
This isn't the first time Fort Worth ISD officials have crossed top state leadership on issues of sexual orientation and gender identity. In 2016, Scribner signed a policy allowing transgender students to "acknowledge the gender identity that each student consistently and uniformly asserts" and use the bathrooms and locker rooms of their choice — prompting Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick to call for his resignation, claiming the policy broke the law.
The policy also directed school employees to share information about students' gender identity at the student's direction. Paxton argued in a subsequent nonbinding opinion that that part of the policy broke state law by limiting parental access to crucial information.

Inside the trunk, agents say they found 16 bundles of marijuana weighing 180 pounds.
Santacruz-Renteria was arrested for possession of marijuana and transported to the Starr County Detention Center.
Starr County HIDTA and the Starr County District Attorney's Office have taken over the investigation.
Mexico elections center on disgust with corruption, violence
Sunday's elections for posts at every level of government are Mexico's largest ever.

Mexicans vote Sunday in a potentially transformative election that could put in power a firebrand vowing to end politics and business as usual in a country weary of spiraling violence, unchecked corruption and scandal-plagued politicians.
But his rivals warn that a victory by leftist Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador could set the country back decades with an interventionist economic policy and are also promising to fight corruption and bring change to Mexico. All the candidates are lambasting President Donald Trump's policies against migrants and Mexico.
Sunday's elections for posts at every level of government are Mexico's largest ever and have become a referendum on corruption, graft and other tricks used to divert taxpayer money to officials' pockets and empty those of the country's poor.
This is Lopez Obrador's third bid for the presidency and some see it as his best shot after 12 years of near-permanent campaigning. His railing against the "mafia of power" that has long ruled Mexico and in favor of the poor appears to be falling on receptive ears with polls showing him with a wide lead over three rivals who have failed to ignite voters' interest.
"The corrupt regime is coming to its end," Lopez Obrador, a 64-year-old commonly known as AMLO, said at his final campaign event Wednesday. "We represent modernity forged from below."
Much of the popular ire has been aimed at unpopular President Enrique Pena Nieto's Institutional Revolutionary Party. Its candidate, Jose Antonio Meade, failed to gain traction with voters who would not give him the benefit of the doubt in spite of his ample resume in government and being an outsider to the ruling party.
Ricardo Anaya is the candidate of a right-left coalition. He has tried to harness the youth vote with an emphasis on technology and new ideas, but he divided his own conservative party to take its candidacy and it's unclear if his new allies in the leftist Democratic Revolution Party will actually turn out for someone from the other end of the ideological spectrum.
Sunday is the first time that an independent candidate appears on the ballot.
Jaime "El Bronco" Rodriguez fought for attention with a horse-mounted "everyman" campaign and by tossing out policy bombs like his proposal to cut off the hands of public officials caught stealing. Without the big party machinery it was an uphill battle.
But "independent candidacies are here to stay in Mexico," Janine Otalora Malassis, president of the electoral court, said on Friday.
It is also the first time Mexicans living abroad can vote for down ballot races like senators. More than 181,000 received ballots and the 97,000 that the National Electoral Institute had gotten back by Friday morning were already double what they got in 2012.
Juan Carlos Enriquez, 30, said he supports Lopez Obrador but warned him that he better not steal.
"Of course, I want him to win. But it has to be made clear that he has to deliver what he promises and not become like the rest," he said.
Hovering over the election is the specter of vote fraud, though electoral officials deny it is a possibility with the modern balloting technology and institutions now in place.
In both of Lopez Obrador's previous two presidential losses he alleged fraud. In his first loss — by a mere 0.56 percent to conservative Felipe Calderon in 2006 — his supporters held months-long protests in Mexico City and he referred to himself as "the legitimate president."
His allies are warning even before Sunday's presidential vote that there better not be any funny business.
"They shouldn't dare commit a fraud, because if they do they will meet the devil," said Yeidckol Polevnsky, president of Lopez Obrador's Morena party. "We will not accept it."
