A Texas detention facility for migrant children run by the U.S. Border Patrol has inadequate food, water and sanitation, lawyers who visited reported. Locked up children are forced to care for other children, including babies and toddlers, and some were sick with flu. “In my 22 years of doing visits with children in detention I have never heard of this level of inhumanity,” said attorney Holly Cooper. President Donald Trump dismissed the report, and the furor it triggered, and then falsely claimed his predecessor enacted Trump’s own policy of separating children from their caregivers. On Monday, an administration official warned the government may soon run out of money to shelter children at all. “We are full,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar. —Josh Petri

The Iconic Toyota Supra Is Back 

The original Toyota Supra was essentially an elongated Celica, with a longer hood and front panels to accommodate an inline six engine. Beloved by tuners and street racers, the new $49,990 version retains some of the prior version’s design cues, and adds a perfect 50-50 weight distribution. Unlike that prior version, it will not be available with a manual transmission. Drift enthusiasts will have to look elsewhere.
