Trump's Orphans: 528 children still separated, 'severe attachment injuries' observed in migrant kids

Jacob Soboroff of NBC News has been covering the story of migrant kids separated from their families by Trump's violent policy at the Mexico border. Soboroff is in Florida today, where he stopped by a "temporary" HHS shelter for unaccompanied minors who entered the United States illegally. "It's still open," Soboroff says. "Trump administration sent many separated kids here during zero tolerance. Around 50 of them are still inside. 528 total remain separated." Watch his first-person video update below. https://twitter.com/jacobsoboroff/status/1034478219993538562 Early childhood developmental psychologists say what we're seeing in videos like the ACLU clip below is 'severe attachment injury' in the child. This is irreparable, violent harm to a child. Imagine the pain of one kid. Multiply that by hundreds. 528 kids still separated. https://twitter.com/ACLU/status/1033084026893070338

In this new joint filing, @ACLU reports additional data:

➡️ 412 already-deported parents with kids in US.
➡️ Phone numbers provided by Trump administration for 38 are no good.
➡️ 140 not reachable at numbers provided.
➡️ No phone numbers for 41.
