PROBLEM: Co-chairman Bob Weinstein and chief operating officer David Glasser  who has been expected to move into the CEO role as the company confronts a post-Harvey future  told employees in a video conference that they were completely blindsided by the waves of reports documented by the Times and the New Yorker.
Lance Maerov  the board member who handled the contract negotiations  said in an interview with the Times that he had been told of settlements  but said that he had assumed they were used to cover up consensual affairs. Glasser declined to comment to the newspaper  as did  Bob Weinstein . Tarak Ben Ammar and Richard Koenigsberg  the other members of the board  did not respond to messages from the Times.
Ben Ammar told French television on Wednesday night that  Weinstein  had “violated the charter and we fired him within the hour.” The Franco-Tunisian businessman was referring to the company’s code of conduct that employees of TWC sign which covers “verbal  physical  sexual and racist aggression.” He told news channel LCI that he couldn’t speak about the ongoing investigation convened by the board  but said the company has “proof.” He did not elaborate.
He also noted that  Weinstein  re-signed the code of conduct in 2015 after revelations that he had groped Italian model Ambra Battilana Guttierez. An audio recording  captured when Gutierrez worked with New York City police and wore a wire in a subsequent encounter with  Weinstein   proved damning but did not result in any charges as prosecutors declined to move forward with a case  citing insufficient evidence.

SOLUTION: Weinstein Company board reportedly knew about payoffs to women since 2015

PROBLEM: We have some news now on how the Trump administration is pushing back against illegal immigration. The administration has for months talked about separating immigrant families at the border as a way of discouraging them from coming in the first place. A federal lawsuit filed on Monday says federal agents are increasingly doing that  and the idea has outraged activists. The plaintiff is an undocumented Congolese woman who's being detained in San Diego while her 7-year-old daughter is being held 2 000 miles away at a shelter in Chicago.  NPR's John Burnett  has the story.
 JOHN BURNETT   BYLINE: In recent years  the Department of Homeland Security has attempted to discourage asylum-seekers from coming to the U.S. Under Obama  they detained some unauthorized families in camps in South Texas rather than release them in the U.S. while their cases are heard. The Trump administration has gone even further. It has arrested immigrant parents in the U.S. who paid smugglers to bring their children across the border  and it wants to expand detention space. Now comes the most extreme measure yet  family separation.
 BURNETT : That's Lee Gelernt  deputy director of the ACLU's National Immigrant Rights Project. He's representing a 39-year-old mother who traveled from the Democratic Republic of Congo to Mexico with her 7-year-old daughter. They surrendered to immigration agents near San Diego in December. They said they were fleeing violence in Congo and asked for asylum. She's being held apart from her daughter. They're only able to speak by phone.
 BURNETT : A spokeswoman for Homeland Security declined to give a reason why the child was taken from her mother  saying only the agency does not comment on cases under litigation. The practice of separating undocumented families to discourage them from coming is not a formal stated policy of the administration  but immigrant activists say it's been quietly growing in frequency along the Southern border. Katharina Obser is with the Women's Refugee Commission.
 BURNETT : Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services has documented 53 incidents of family separation in the last nine months  mostly Central Americans. They say they're fleeing rampant gang violence. But the administration believes most of them are gaming the system  and it wants to stop the flow  first  because the trek is dangerous for young children. And  second  Matt Al Bent's  an official with ICE removal operations  told NPR...
 BURNETT : Immigration lawyers say the strategy could work. Mothers may drop their cases and go home to be reunited with their children. But is that a reasonable way to curtail illegal immigration? Dr. Lisa Fortuna  director of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the Boston Medical Center  is an expert on the impact of trauma on immigrant families. She's submitting an amicus brief in the ACLU lawsuit.
 BURNETT : The lawsuit claims that immigration agents violated the Congolese woman's constitutional right to due process. It asks the government  if it's going to detain a mother and child during the asylum process  at least allow them to be together.  John Burnett   NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR  Copyright NPR.

SOLUTION: To Curb Illegal Immigration DHS Separating Families At The Border

PROBLEM: Police say that  a 29-year-old Uzbek immigrant named Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov  sped a rented truck 20 blocks down a lower Manhattan bike trail  slamming cyclists and pedestrians.  His  deceased victims include a young Belgian mother of two  two fledgling American businessmen  and  perhaps most tragically  five of eight Argentines who visited Gotham to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their high-school graduation.
NYPD Counterterror Chief John Miller said  "He did this in the name of ISIS." A note in Arabic note in  Saipov ’s vehicle pledged allegiance to the terror network. His cell phone reportedly contains some 90 videos and 3 800 photos from ISIS  including images of beheadings and prisoners being crushed by a tank.
 Saipov  seems remorseless.  He  reportedly said  he  was "proud" of  his  killing spree and wished to hang an ISIS flag in  his  hospital room.
But political correctness also eased  Saipov ’s carnage.
De Blasio further disconnected the dots in April 2014 when he scrapped an NYPD surveillance program designed to root out "budding terrorist conspiracies." It scrutinized  among others  Paterson  New Jersey’s Masjid Omar Mosque. De Blasio claimed that junking this initiative would ease tensions  "so that our cops and our citizens can help one another go after the real bad guys." Too bad they could not go after a real bad guy among this mosque’s congregants — Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov.
Information is vital here.  Saipov  may have loads of  it . American officials should squeeze  it  out of  him   like juice from a lemon.
"If you act like a terrorist  and you say you’re a terrorist  that’s enough for me " Sen. Lindsey Graham  R-S.C.  told journalists on Wednesday. "We ought to treat you as a terrorist." Graham knows exactly how to handle  Saipov .
As soon as he can travel   Saipov  should be jetted to Guantanamo and interrogated until he spills everything he knows about his terrorist training  contacts  and any mayhem that they are poised to unleash. After that   Saipov  should receive a swift military trial. If convicted  he should be dispatched at once.

SOLUTION:
Political Correctness Helped Bring Saipov's Terror
