And SOP for most of the press.
Repeated along highways from coast to coast when a citizen parent has been traffic stopped and a warrant check reveals a bench warrant.
Nothing to see here. Move along.
I don’t know why anyone would believe the MSM anymore, especially when politics or Trump is involved. Do they just like being lied to? I think to some degree, liberals actually do. The truth is harder for them to bear.

“In 1997, the federal government made an agreement in a case called Flores not to keep unaccompanied illegal immigrant children in custody beyond 20 days. The settlement said nothing about accompanied illegal immigrant children – children who crossed the border with their parents. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals then ruled that accompanied children also could not be held in custody under the terms of the settlement. This meant that the government either had to release whole families, or that the government had to separate parents from children.”
“Immigrants who come to points of entry to seek asylum aren’t actually illegally in the country – they’re not arrested. They’re processed through ICE, and their children stay with them. If, however, illegal immigrants cross the border illegally, the Trump administration now treats them as criminals. If they choose deportation, they aren’t separated from their kids; if they choose to apply for asylum, they stay in the country longer than 20 days, and their kids have to be removed by operation of law.”
Make it felony for each child the adult brings in illegally. Three felonies = life in prison.
Is there a reason they have to be processed after being caught? Is there some problem busing them back over the border?
Trump should make a prime time speech that expands on but includes exactly what this DHS document says.
You are either a Nation of Laws or a Nation of Leftists.
We can’t be both. Mob Rule will prevail if the Leftists gain power.
A good part of the MSM is Disney and Comcast — two behemoths that facilitate and encourage malice in media. No conservative should patronize either.
Good for you DHS. Now figure a way to get this widely disseminated.
This is great information...thanks for the heads up. As suspected the rules are in place to protect children in all circumstances. Not to be jerks to children.
The press is screaming loadly to avoid any reporting about the corrupt FBI that attempted to throw a presidential election thru it’s own meddling.
Happy to see my Agency fighting back.
I wonder how this differs from procedures used when adults and children are arrested for other crimes committed in the U.S.
btt
What did everyone expect. The Trump administration is interfering with the trafficking of children. Of course liberals are triggered.
Bttt
What a novel idea, if you commit a crime you will suffer the consequences.
.... The Administration absolutely needs at this point to not play a childish blame game but to form a coordinated team effort to use the talking point that states ... "The Trump Administration is merely following policies set down by previous administrations." Then when pressed further begin stating the facts such as laid down in this article.
.... There is a lot of disinformation out there being spun by both sides of the argument .... So what matters now is how this whole thing is handled and getting the true facts out there to the general public in a manner that doesn't sound like a truck load of childish whining.
I find it interesting that everybody’s acting like it is an absolute evil to “separate families“, when we actually do it all the time.
Feel free to use the example of a convicted murder or car thief or a person who is charged but can’t make bail prior to trial. Or use the example of a soldier who must deploy to Afghanistan or be Court-martialed. Kids taken away from a family while CPS investigates abuse is another good example.
Now the question is about where you draw the line, and it’s not quite so black-and-white.
