Trump signs executive order to stop family separations at border

Once again, an inept congress has forced a president to do their job for them.

This post is in need of some corrections.

For one, the situation came about due to the Trump administration having a zero tolerance policy for illegal border crossing and enforcing the laws on the books prior to his presidency: which included the separation of kids from parents who crossed illegally under certain circumstances.

For two, it appears you cast the illegal immigrants as blameless victims when in fact they are the guilty party for crossing into the United States illegally. I don't think separating kids from parents is the best course of action for people that are guilty of violating US immigration laws, but like nearly every other country they should be detained, charged, and punished if convicted for violating our laws. The real victims are the American people who are the victims of mass illegal immigration causing harm to our country and national coffers. These families are neither victims nor blameless.

Lastly, putting Americans first and having a zero tolerance policy after decades of lax immigration enforcement is not indefensible.

Calling the people of Alabama disgusting for not electing Moore, defending torture, changing an armed robbery story to a mass shooting story in order to one up school shooting survivors and defending ripping kids by the thousand away from their parents...

How, how can you not see what you’ve become.

Is getting to feel like you belong in the extremist conservative club that worth it to you?

You're already listening to the voices in your head in this thread? Are they the ones who constantly post that green laughing guy, even when a post isn't funny?

I would rather those kids, along with their parents stay in their home countries.

Yeah, right? Because we can't have anyone who wasn't born here come into this country. If you aren't born here of American parents, you should never set foot here. Or if you do, make your visit as brief as possible, and then get out.

Well this'll piss the Anti-Trumpets off. They won't have this to bitch about anymore.

Guess they'll have to go back to pulling stuff out of their asses.

He still constantly lies like a snake, so there will be plenty of ammo.

Ah, so to you this was just something that Trump opponents bitched about. It says a lot about you too.

No need for that, you are doing that exceptionally well already.

That is how congress has learned to 'work'. You must look at things the way that congress critters do - doing nothing much differently gets over 90% of them re-elected and keeps the campaign cash flowing.

There is now an executive order signed by the president to stop separating children from their illegal alien parents when detained for unlawfully crossing the US border. It appears congress is also to act on this as well.

Trump is impulsive, they don't have time to proofread and spellcheck enough in the time he allows them to work.

For those that continue to insist this was a law enacted by Democrats and the separation of parents and children was actually "in the books".

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/was-law-separate-families-passed-1997/

There is no federal law that stipulates that children and parents be separated at the border, no matter how families entered the United States. An increase in child detainees separated from parents stemmed directly from a change in enforcement policy repeatedly announced by Sessions in April and May 2018, under which adults (with or without children) are criminally prosecuted for attempting to enter the United States:

By law, when adults are detained and criminally prosecuted, their children cannot be housed with them in jail.

No, Donald Trump?s separation of immigrant families was not Barack Obama?s policy | PunditFact

Trumps new EO will now ignore a court order.
 
Lighten up everybody.

Donald played Stephen Miller's hand, and it didn't work out.

Hopefully it is a lesson well learned.
