How is the international community dealing with orphans, after the arrest of ten missionaries accused of trying to smuggle children out of the country?

With James Comey’s public testimony scheduled tomorrow, the President today tweeted his selection of a new FBI Director. Is the Chief Executive all style and no substance?
