More than half of the reciepts for the unaccompanied children have been lost “unexpectedly” of course, I suggest they will find them alongside the missing emails.
The Kurdish Forces to the Rescue of the Yazidids. Kurdish forces from Iraq, Syria and Turkey organized the evacuations and were positioned along the escape route to protect refugees from the extremists.

And as the comic relief for the day we bring up John Kerry who had the audacity to tell Africans not to build more farms as it would contribute to global warming. That’s the closest I could come to funny, it is really just irony. And very, very arrogant.
