President Donald Trump signed an executive order Wednesday that he says will keep migrant families together during detention on the U.S.-Mexico border.
The president will not abandon his "zero tolerance" policy of criminally prosecuting all adults who cross U.S. borders illegally.
Earlier, he signaled he would sign a measure to stop his administration's splitting of migrant families.
"I'll be signing something in a little while that's going to do that," he told reporters during a White House event after saying he wanted families to be kept together. "I'll be doing something that's somewhat pre-emptive and ultimately will be matched by legislation I'm sure."
Trump added: "We're keeping families together, but we have to keep our borders strong. We will be overrun with crime and with people that should not be in our country."
The order is expected to allow families to be housed together even while adults in the family are being detained or prosecuted for crossing the U.S. border illegally or for seeking asylum at the border outside of a designated border entry point.

See post 138, does not mean catch and release
That's mine, too. The ACLU has already moved the goalposts, saying the kids should not be held at all. Which means they really want a return to catch and release.
Tell me what they gained as opposed to what they actually wanted, which was to have the parents and their kids RELEASED pending their hearing.
Sorry but Trump won big and you will see this by the reaction of the liberal loons.

At least they speak the same language.................
There are no family type detentions centers. There is no funding for this at all which means catch and release. Even id “centers” wee built they’d be called internment centers or concentration camps.
Where are you getting this info about “outside US border”?
Please, geez you are REALLY not getting what happened at all!!
“Trump, previewing the measure earlier in the day during a meeting with lawmakers, said the move would “be matched by legislation.” He also said he’s canceling the upcoming congressional picnic, adding: “It didn’t feel exactly right to me.”
Haha. No hot dogs for you, Congress critters!
The U.S. District Court for the Central District of California is not in the Constitution.
Its UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
That is not what the EO says. I guess a “refugee” only becomes an Illegal if his request is denied.
They can compel DNA gathering on those seeking asylum.
It is a law enforcement issue.
That part of the tweet deserved more emphasis.
VanDeKoik is one of the best on FR :-)! VanDeKoik has a knack for injecting wayyyyy too much logic into meltdown threads using very few words ... it’s an awesome talent :-)!
It means nothing of the sort.
Trump to Congress:
This ain’t no party
This ain’t no disco
This ain’t no foolin’ around...
I read the article.
...but reading the EO I don’t see it.
No way, the picnic should proceed as planned.

You want to tell us where “catch and release” is continuing under this EO?
