The US Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen, who enforced some of President Donald Trump’s controversial border policies, has resigned.
Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan – a very competent Customs Leader who I have met many times – will replace her temporarily.
Ms. Nielsen was responsible for the proposed border wall with Mexico and the separation of migrant families.
Her resignation came after the president indicated he wanted to follow a “tougher” immigration policy.
Once working as a meteorologist, Christian Moullec must have been familiar with the cloud floating above. While he used to look up to see the cloud, now he decides to come closer to the floating cotton candy in the atmosphere.
Using his ultralight aviation, or some call it as microlight, he soars up to the sky. Often accompanied by his wife, his purpose is not to touch the cloud, his purpose is much more noble than fulfilling one childhood dream.
Rather than doing what he dreamed of as a child, his flight is a dedication to wildlife.
He is flying to help migrating birds doing their journey safely. This is not a single flight story, but Moullec is doing it in almost daily basis.

Any country that vetoes a delay to Brexit at next week’s European Council meeting “wouldn’t be forgiven”, Irish premier Leo Varadkar has said.
The European Council will hold an emergency meeting next Wednesday to discuss the UK’s request to delay Brexit until 30 June.
Donald Tusk, the council president, is expected to instead propose a delay of one year with the option of the UK leaving the EU earlier if parliament ratifies a withdrawal agreement.
Mr Varadkar said Ireland wanted a longer extension than is being proposed by the UK government.
He admitted that some EU countries were frustrated at the UK’s failure to ratify a Brexit deal but said he had asked other states to show “patience and solidarity”.
