The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list

Also if one of these detainees commits a felony after their release whoever gave the order should be held civilly and criminally liable.

No! Just an out and out lie to calm the situation!
I really wish the sane ones in the nation would boycott these
news outlets and the advertisers that support this tripe!
Honest journalism is dead!
I usually give a news story 3 days to see what is going to be retracted!
Self pride is also now missing from so called reporters!
The credential around their neck is no more than a license to lie!
good video...so true
