In the cases of the people that have crossed the border and requested asylum, they have not committed a crime.

Yes, US convicts are separated from their children. And not just the US, but Britain also and a host of other countries.

For example, Tommy Robinson is separated from his family, can’t even talk to them. Although he was allowed to talk with them briefly a week ago, he was then moved into another cell where he could not have any communication with them. The communication he did have was a result of pressure from massive amounts of supporters some who were very important politically.

I am certain that detained illegals are able to communicate with their children and to know they are safe.

This issue of separating children from families is overblown. The children are very well taken care of. When deportation orders are issued, the parents will be reunited with their children and the family can return to their place of origin together.

We all know what this is. This is financed by deep state globalists to taint the Trump Administration in hopes that the invasion from the South can proceed in its quest to dominate key parts of the US demographically.

I personally have known in the past of one upper-crust Mexican family that ‘sold insurance’ to border crossers in case they died or were injured. I am fairly certain this insurance was a payment pass-through to enable transportation and placement of illegals and that the insurance payout stream came from Euro reinsurers backed by the ECB. This is all part of a plan and is not at random.

Why can’t they stay in Mexico? The Mexican government has no heart. Oddly enough, you will never hear this plea from the enemy of the people, the media.

No. Mrs. Trump with her usual grace and charm is requesting all sides to throttle back and resolve this intelligently. I am sure that the usual suspects on the left wil throw insults at her to no effect.

In a couple days the rest of the meta cult known as the Democratic party will start to get restless as they demand attention in the media circus. This means Trump will keep this scam bull crap kiddie drama going for a lot longer than the libtards can tolerate and then the libtards will move on to something else.

The left is comprised of cults that hate, hate, hate one another and Trump knows this even if conservative intellectuals are too stupid to realize these facts.

“Their parents BROKE OUR LAW.”

If the parents crossed the border at a border crossing and requested asylum, they have not broken a law.

Seems to be a very simple solution to this problem. Stop trying to sneak across the border

Well since children shouldn’t be taken away from their parents we can do away with Child Protective Services and Foster Care programs. We just send the kids to jail with their parents

Furthermore, all of our troops in Germany should be redeployed to Nicaragua and El Salvador to take over their countries in order to defeat the criminal gangs, that are causing the exodus in the first place.

They want United Sates law to protect them? Give it 3 weeks. Done. Put their leaders in Guantanamo, police the streets and shoot the gangsters dead.

Only then will the normal, nice people from these countries feel safe and and have no need to claim asylum.

Why are we spending gazillions of dollars to protect Germany? ( Or France, England or any other country?) Let the Russians take them over. I won’t cry a tear. They deserve it.

Save the good people of Central America, instead.

They can't. To combat outright corruption, it's necessary to kill their leaders and gangs. It's the only way. You must live in an expensive community, that's for sure.

What about the military families who are separated while their service member is deployed to be a super duper pooper scooper that I read about. . .of course not using that terminology. The military has lost its way. This should not be.

The detention of children apart from their parents is a result of the policy mandated by Attorney General Jeff Sessions,

Huh? Really?

Thought they had been doing this well before Trump et al showed up?

Not far off from the way our country is headed. For years people just say vote to change the laws by getting the right politicians in charge. Well we see how that’s worked out for us with all the deep state corruption. The only way to fix it is going to take more time, or a revolution. Trump can’t do this alone.

Interesting. I read the entire article (Yes, I know!) and what Mrs. Trump’s SPOKESWOMAN said she said had pretty much nothing to do with the REST of the article because they just wanted to use her words to PROMOTE Democrat Candidates that will be up for election this coming fall.

So, I’m not going to lose any sleep over two sentences that NBC decided to use to push their agenda of HELPING DEMOCRATS WIN ELECTIONS.

My guess? Ain’t gonna happen, anyway.

Build the wall! Reunite these families with one another - ON THE OTHER SIDE OF IT! MAGA!

Read the following from another source. Reporters pushing agendas can turn words many ways.

By Peter Baker

June 17, 2018

WASHINGTON — Melania Trump urged “both sides of the aisle” on Sunday to come together to stop federal authorities from separating children from their parents when apprehended at the border, a rare public intervention in an issue that has generated enormous criticism of her husband.

In a statement issued by her office, the first lady expressed empathy for affected families, saying the country should be governed “with a heart,” but did not directly take issue with President Trump’s policy. Instead, by saying that “both sides” needed to agree, she adopted his argument that the situation was caused by political stalemate rather than a policy he initiated.

“Mrs. Trump hates to see children separated from their families and hopes both sides of the aisle can finally come together to achieve successful immigration reform,” the first lady said in the statement, which her office said was issued in response to questions by reporters. “She believes we need to be a country that follows all laws, but also a country that governs with a heart.”
