Sessions Compares Nazi Germany to Trump Immigration Policies

Geez, another emotional appeal?

"Babies" are not on trial. If their parents qualify, the kids are returned to be handled by HHS as any qualified asylum seeker.

If the parent's don't claim asylum, they are processed within 24 - 48 hours and the kids are returned to them immediately to cross back over the border.

The kids are not being treated badly, they are being held until one or the other of those scenarios occurs. If it is asylum proceedings that take more than 20 days, then the kids are fostered asap with either relatives in the USA who are here legally, OR in other willing American foster homes.

Say, maybe YOU could volunteer to be a foster home eh? :yes:

You are going to have to back that up with a link, because somehow I don't believe you. How do we know who's kids belong to who? What if there is a newborn baby and it's so chaotic the ICE agent forgets to tag, (yes that's what they do), it properly. Very easy to mess up thousands of lives in this situation. Sounds like most parents are going to or at least the situation is designed so that most parents will be deported. That does not solve the situation of the kids still being here.
 
Great, more hyperbole and idiocy from anti-trumpers.... how surprising. :coffeepap

So what? It's not like you offer anything except complaints about threads you don't like. Why not find a pro-trump forum?
 
I'm just exhausted of the constant fearmongering regarding Trump. I don't support the guy, I can't stand him, I hope he doesn't get a second term.

However, he is not Adolf Hitler. Adolf Hitler genocided millions, installed a ruthless dictatorship, wished to completely undo years of social progress, sent millions to die in imperialist wars, and far, far more.

Trump is, at worst, a Twitter-addicted narcissist that lacks good conservation skills and constantly calls people immature names on twitter like "Rocket Man". He is not the leader of what will become the American Reich.

haha dude, you've not even been here a month. Quit gaslighting.
 
Can this forum go one day without a post making a comparison between Trump and Adolf Hitler.

I don't know. Stay tuned.

The Truth about Separating Kids
https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/05/illegal-immigration-enforcement-separating-kids-at-border/
 
Seems to me that the end of the journey for these kids is like a 'walk on the beach' compared to the
hard journey they managed through approximately 2000 miles in Mexico. Kids getting fed properly, playing video
games & receiving medical attention, some realizing these benefits perhaps for the first time in their lives.

I think the DHS is sending them back...they just have to go through a lot of red tape.
A lot of the children do not belong to the adults bringing them here Nielson mentioned over
300 fake families were found. The parents hire them to bring them here,
hoping to follow later after an amnesty. And if their kids are abused while coming here, oh well,
it's a price to pay. The left have cranked up the propaganda machine to the max,
trying to influence the already weak kneed to fold, and throw open the borders and create the
beginning of the end to American sovereignty..
 
You may want to read your own link :

These kids are here with their parents.

I did read it, however, if you read further in, you will see that this can also apply to the children being detained under the current enforcement situation. That, thanks to the 2016 Ninth Circuit ruling expanding the Flores Agreement which only applied to unaccompanied children as now applying to ALL children, accompanied or unaccompanied.

Then here is the National Review article which explains further.

There is no middle ground with you. That is sad.

Because its funny to see how much idiocy is going around in the anti-trump camps.

One being that the assessment for this, is that there were hundreds of thousands of Jews trying to enter Nazi Germany of their own accord... so yeah.

Forgive me if I find this kind of ****, side splittingly funny.

I read the first few paragraphs of that asinine article. It even said it's a new policy to prosecute all illegal adults as criminals. You fail.

Um. You are reading the wrong forum.

This person is clearly reading your insane threads because the Donald Trump Syndrome is in complete control. Your threads have little merit; nothing more than pot stirring for the leftwing haters. So you're getting called on it, and just don't like that.

Yes, people with your viewpoint seldom read everything, typically stopping when they feel they've either read enough to justify their own assumption bias or feel it is something they prefer to dismiss rather than upset their established world-view.

It is only a "new policy" to those upset we are actually enforcing established immigration law, something that should have been "policy" all along.

NeverTrumpGOP, that is at best a gross misinterpretation and at worst a baleful misrepresentation of what Attorney General Jeff Sessions said. He was responding to accusations of the zero-tolerance immigration policy being compared to Nazi Concentration camps. His rejoinder was that he is trying to keep illegal immigrants out of the United States, and is catching and deporting illegal immigrants, and that Adolf Hitler's Nazi regime was catching people and putting them in camps with the intention of murdering them.
While it is true that Sessions was responding to the questioner asking whether his policy was akin to Nazi concentration camps, Sessions sidestepped the issue by saying 'we're different, we're trying to keep people out while the Nazis were trying to keep people in.' The operative comparison is separating families and locking up children in cages.

What underscores Trump Administration policy is the callousness of the policy -- which indeed reminds me of Nazi Germany. Underscoring said policy is Session's ruling that even fear for one's life isn't sufficient to grant asylum. I have to hand it to Trump -- it only took 500 days to have his policies compared to the Nazis. Committing atrocities at the border goes hand-in-hand with attacking the domestic rule of law and insulting democratic leaders while praising thugs.

Wrong. This is the first time that I've ever linked the president to Nazism. And I'm just analyzing what sessions is saying. You just don't like it

There is no established law that forces parents to get separated from their kids. I just said that.

Yes, there is. It has been quoted several times, and you simply refuse to see it.

Maybe this post will help:

Original 1997 decision: https://www.aclu.org/files/pdfs/immigrants/flores_v_meese_agreement.pdf

Ninth Circuit decision 2016: https://www.aclu.org/files/pdfs/immigrants/flores_v_meese_agreement.pdf

The Flores Consent Decree from 1997 says that unaccompanied children can be held only 20 days. A 2016 ruling by the Ninth Circuit extended this 20-day limit to children who come as part of family units. So even if we want to hold a family unit together, we are forbidden from doing so.

Or this thread:

Try again. :coffeepap:

Aren't new thread titles supposed to reflect the intent of the article and not the uncontrolled twisted leftist ramblings of a faux Moderate?
Like ... why not use the actual title of the piece at the link.
There must be a good reason, huh.
