Immigration Advocates Say President Trump's Executive Order Creates Even More Problems(its illegal)

Subtitle :Children 'Don’t Need Jail.'

President Donald Trump’s executive order ending his administration’s policy of separating migrant families is far from a solution to the border crisis, immigration advocates are warning – and could lead to immigrant children being locked up in detention centers with their parents for “months or years.”

“The President doesn’t get any brownie points for moving from a policy of locking up kids and families separately to locking them up together. Let’s be clear that Trump is making a crisis of his own creation worse,” said Karen Tumlin, director of legal strategy at the National Immigration Law Center, in a press call on Wednesday.

Trump’s order also seeks to modify the terms of the latest settlement on the 1997 Flores case, which prohibits the government from keeping migrant children in detention for more than 20 days

This whole manufactured crisis of separating children from their parents in illegal border crossings, is just an attempt by the democRATS and their Marxist water-carryers to paint Trump into a corner.

They refuse to acknowledge that this practice was going on for several administrations before Trump. It's solely Trump's fault according to them.

But now that he has signed an EO to stop the practice, they are still upset because he has taken their political hammering-point against Trump for the mid-term elections away from them.

It did not matter if he did or didn't do anything to stop this practice, the perpetually offended Left is at it again.

This is a process Which is going to take many phases due to Congress. Trump will piece together all the best parts.

Okay, don’t accept any asylum applications from families with children. Solved.

It has nothing to do with the children, it has everything to do with getting at Trump.
As far as I'm concerned, Trump just passed the ball to the Dems and they promptly scored a self goal.

Just as many of us suspected, this was never about keeping illegals and their children housed together, it was about turning the ENTIRE illegal family loose with a pat on the back and a piece of paper saying, “Kindly show up at an immigration hearing a year or two down the road” (which 95% of them never will). Now that the pro-illegals have won the first battle, they as starting in on how we can’t detain these poor kids, even with their families, so we must release all of them....

Don't accept any asylum applications from people who attempted to cross the border illegally.
They MUST arrive openly and apply at a border checkpoint.
Also solved.

Let’s be clear

Phrases like that invariably precede half-truths, distortions, and outright lies.

We could give them free houses, cars, food, college educations, etc. and Time, CNN, Newsweek, etc. would find something wrong. We are still funding LBJ’s “great society” programs from 1965 and the Left keeps attacking on how bad minorities are treated. The Left will never be satisfied - never ever.

Right

I have liberals in my family, like everyone. I get along with them - we go way back to when we were kids and didnt think about life choices. We visit- at the beach, thanksgiving. They have the best real estate, like liberals tend to. We talk cooking, house repair, gardening, sports

When their relativist morality comes around to bite them, like when they realize, long after I do, how much crushing money it’s costing them to turn a blind eye to a spouses’ fooling around, just for instance, they come to me with their weird story. As if I haven’t heard it. As if their liberal sidekicks don’t gossip. I dont know why they come to me (last). They don’t listen to my advice. It’s usually something like, ‘well, you’re Catholic. Go talk to an intelligent priest. That’s what works for me when i need to make a big decision.’ I guess some guy looking like Donald J. flashes through their minds. They reject the truth-telling. The lets get to the heart of the matter frightens them. Theyd rather let some evil bully keep running their lives.
I watch their homes crumble.

They allow our country to crumble in the same way.

THAT i will not stand by and watch. That’s MY country. They have no right to ruin it with their moral relativism.

No

They DO arrive openly. They cross then immediately turn themselves in and ask for asylum.

The solution is sign an EO stopping all welfare payments to illegals and that anyone hiring an illegal alien will forfeit everything they have. From a business to a house for hiring an illegal to mow the lawn or an illegal to clean it. No money and they’ll stop coming.

Trumps order apparently violates a law that the libs said yesterday didn't exist. They are truly wackos par excellance.

There are two options:

Parents who enter the country illegally are incarcerated and separated from their children.

-or-

Parents who enter the country illegally are incarcerated and their children are incarcerated with them.

The left needs to choose one. There is no third option.

Obama took the third option.
Let them all go free together but tell them sternly that they must show up at their immigration court hearing.

...which they usually dont..
