This is what it sounds like inside a U.S. Customs and Border Protection facility. There are children wailing, sobbing, and pleading for their parents, and a border agent can be heard to joke, “We have an orchestra here.” If this doesn’t break your damn heart, I just don’t know. I made it about 30 seconds before I just lost it. This is what you’ve created, Trump. THIS. (Pro Publica)

Someone play that video for the 28 percent.

I thought that Justin Bieber’s new girlfriend was Alec Baldwin’s daughter, but it’s not. It’s Stephen Baldwin’s daughter, and for some reason that depresses the hell out of me. (Lainey)

Meghan Markle’s dad needs to sit down. (The Root)

I have no idea who Jeff Lewis is, but I do know you shouldn’t make shitty comments about the body (and vagina) of the woman you paid to carry your baby. What a shit-nozzle. (Celebitchy)

Pete Davidson and Cazzie David WERE ON A BREAK! Wait, are they still on a break? It’s not a “break” if it’s permanent. It’s called a “break up.” (Dlisted)

I got a Roku for our older TV in the guest room the other day, and that thing is spectacular. I mean, there’s not much need for it if you have a smart TV, unless … Oh, well, this is a good idea. (Variety)

Goddamn Tessa Thompson. GODDAMN. (GFY)

Roxana on Jonah Hill’s new look: “This is a lot of look for Jonah Hill. But I kind of like it. Like a dude I would avoid at an Urban Outfitters.” Kristy on Jonah Hill’s new look: “How is he sketchier skinny? He looks like Perez Hilton’s douchey younger brother.” 100 percent yes to both assessments.

Omg you guys !

Well, this is something at least.

I’m calling on Kirstjen Nielsen to resign as Secretary of Homeland Security. Under her watch, our government has committed human rights abuses by breaking up families along the southern border. And she has failed to be accountable to and transparent with the American people.

There is just something so weirdly hilarious about a guy spending years and years and years trying to make a movie, only to see it postponed, canceled, and delayed, and then once it finally gets made, the director loses the rights to it. HOLLYWOOD. (/Film)

The Film School Rejects have rounded up the best theories on how Chris Pine winds up in 1984 in Wonder Woman. (FSR)

‘Desus & Mero’ have parted ways with Vice, and they’re headed to Showtime for a late-night talk show. (Shadow and Act)

Just a Republican lady sitting at a table with a handgun. No biggie. (Jezebel)

Emilia Clarke has finished filming Game of Thrones, and takes to Instagram to say goodbye. (Uproxx)

Leedock was intrigued when Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows by Balli Kaur Jaswal was considered by her book club and then was surprised to find it is a Reese Witherspoon Book Club recommendation. Jaswal uses a writing class for widows at a Punjabi community center in London to explore. "The class is not just a way for the women to express themselves. It is an awareness that they are not alone and that they are one voice of many." Are you more or less likely to read a book recommended by a famous person? (Cannonball Read 10)

This wrestler using “Like A Prayer,” as his entry music and every single person in the house singing along is honestly just spectacular. Petr posted it on Slack, and it was the first thing I saw this morning, and I’m convinced it has put me in a good mood all day.
