Representative Maxine Dexter has a lot of questions. Why were all of the pregnant, unaccompanied minors in the US rounded up and sent to San Benito, a tiny town on the Texas border with Mexico? Are they given appropriate medical care, given their high-risk conditions and Texas’s abortion ban? And most importantly: where are the girls – and their infants – now?

Dexter, a Democratic congresswoman from Oregon and a former critical care physician – one of the few doctors now serving in Congress – detailed these questions in an 8 May letter to refugee and health officials after visiting the San Benito facility and, she said, being blocked from speaking with any of the children. She still hasn’t gotten answers.

Ah, #Portland and #Oregon leaders are taking Winston Churchill's advice to heart from when he famously proclaimed "The Nazis are looking for a war—let's not give it to them!"

Outrageous, that #WillametteWeek has not retracted their endorsement of #MaxineDexter, even after their own reporting of how she has embraced $2.7 million dollars of #ProGenocide dark money.
