"""Democrats Border Separation Bill Would Let Nearly All Parents Who Commit Federal Crimes Get Off Scot-Free""""
Democrats proposed legislation to prohibit so-called border separations would actually prevent federal law enforcement agencies almost anywhere inside the United States from arresting and detaining criminals who are parents having nothing to do with unlawfully crossing the border and seeking asylum.
Every Senate Democrat has now signed on to cosponsor a bill written so carelessly that it does not distinguish between migrant children at the border and U.S. citizen children already within the United States. The bill further does not distinguish between federal officers handling the border crisis and federal law enforcement pursuing the ordinary course of their duties.
Lets break down Sen. Dianne Feinsteins proposed Keep Families Together Act to see where Democrats went wrong. The bill provides that [a]n agent or officer of a designated agency shall be prohibited from removing a child from his or her parent or legal guardian at or near the port of entry or within 100 miles of the border of the United States (with three exceptions to be discussed later). Four immediate warning signs in this provision should put the reader on notice that this bill is not what Democrats claim.

Why does the author of the piece believe that the Dems were just being careless?
.
Campaign ads.
It’s a damn good thing Democrats aren’t in charge of anything then.
Hey Democrats remember? Elections have consequences.
So it seems that the Dems have been given enough rope to hang themselves.
Sounds like everyone with children could take up bank robbery in these special areas and walk...
I am beginning to believe our corrupt Congress doesn’t even know how to write bills any more. I thought it just didn’t fit their agenda to do their job, now it seems they don’t have a clue how to do their actual job.
It’s a campaign promise from the Dems.
Yes, Tester and Heitkamp both rushed to sign on to the bill and now are caught out.
Neither of their states wants a MEXI-FREE-PASS ticket for illegals to wander the land at will.
Seal the border...to protect the children from our gangs.
The day that the leftist Democrats pass this is the day I quite paying income taxes. I have kids and well, they need the money more than the Feds.
“beginning to believe our corrupt Congress doesnt even know how to write bills any more. I thought it just didnt fit their agenda to do their job, now it seems they dont have a clue how to do their actual job.”
Limit the number of staff that congress can hire and you would see a lot of this go away.
I was going to become a democrat so I could commit crimes and get off. This is even better!
So what this really is is a bill to collapse the country.
The RATS are sick for power and control. They want to watch the country burn while they count their votes....
Checkmate.
Staff must be kept busy picking up and dropping off money bags...they don’t seem to be able to write bills any more either.
The author incorrectly assumes the LEFT care about the unintended consequences of their laws.
The LEFT MEDIA CARTEL has their back.
Its all about the virtue signaling.
... All major U.S. metropolitan areas fall within either 100 miles of the border or are near a port of entry or both..
There’s a port of entry at every US international airport too.
I think Obama and the DNC had this all planned during his administration with Obamacare and Immigration. It was just assumed the system would be overwhelmed, GOP neutered and Clinton would stroll into the Kenyan’s White Hut.
“The RATS are sick for power and control. They want to watch the country burn while they count their votes....’
....and their money.
