How's that gonna work when, what is it, 80%(?), of the little Bolivar Twists are "unaccompanied" minors? Just lock 'em up in camps with random wetbacks to be traded like cigarettes?
I got a bad feeling about this.
I like the "turn them back at the border" strategy a little better. Maybe that's just me.

I agree fully - don’t let them in period!
This must be how Trump plans to show the world the truth about that. Once the order is signed and enacted there will still be a detention center where children, who don’t have parents to stay with, will be segregated. (Should take up most of the facility.)
Then, the truth about these unaccompanied children will have to come out. They should be returned to their parents in their native countries.
What kind of parent sends their children to the border, but stays behind?
The LEFT MUST answer that question! (We already know the answer.)
I think that is still the goal.. Congress needs to change the existing law though.
From The White House “Presidential Actions” web page:
President Donald J. Trump Announces Fifteenth Wave of United States Attorney Nominees and Tenth Wave of United States Marshal Nominees
https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/president-donald-j-trump-announces-fifteenth-wave-united-states-attorney-nominees-tenth-wave-united-states-marshal-nominees/
Gosh, I wonder what all those waves and waves of attorney’s and marshals are needed for? :)
I see that the Southern California nominee “Mr. Brewer served in the United States Army as an Airborne Ranger and received the Silver Star and two Bronze Stars for his service in the Vietnam War.”
Louisiana’s nominee is, “Mr. Strasser is a retired Navy Reserve Captain, JAGC, where he served world-wide, and as a military judge. “

Good times...good times... And now for the immigration EO.
Affording Congress an Opportunity to Address Family Separation
https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/affording-congress-opportunity-address-family-separation/
Here’s a quote I liked:
“Under our laws, the only legal way for an alien to enter this country is at a designated port of entry at an appropriate time. When an alien enters or attempts to enter the country anywhere else, that alien has committed at least the crime of improper entry and is subject to a fine or imprisonment under section 1325(a) of title 8, United States Code. This Administration will initiate proceedings to enforce this and other criminal provisions of the INA until and unless Congress directs otherwise. It is also the policy of this Administration to maintain family unity, including by detaining alien families together where appropriate and consistent with law and available resources. It is unfortunate that Congress’s failure to act and court orders have put the Administration in the position of separating alien families to effectively enforce the law.”
