Soon, open border advocates will step up their agitprop against the new Trump Administration for alleged migrant family separation at the U.S. border. A number of broader points about the family separation phenomenon are worth remembering.
1. The overwhelming majority of migrant family separation decisions are not made at U.S. border by DHS. They are made by parents or others — including cartel criminals — in home countries.
2. Daily, thousands of border violators abandon some or all of their children in their home countries to make the trek into the U.S. illegally to find work. Thousands of others send their children to the U.S. alone or with cartel coyotes, and follow them later.
3. Daily, biological parents already illegally present in the U.S. refuse to come to the border to take custody of their children when the children are encountered at the border after illegal entry. To avoid immigration consequences to themselves, such parents would rather see their children turned over to shelters instead of meeting them at the border after their dangerous trek across Mexico alone or with a cartel coyote.
4. Leading incentives for migrant family separation in the home country include the astonishing cornucopia of U.S. work permits available to border violators, and lawless programs established by U.S. executive fiat. Examples of the latter are CBP One and Biden/Mayorkas/Garland blanket schemes to terminate removal proceedings for tens of thousands of border violators. These and other incentives are powerful magnets that encourage border violations and migrant family separation in home countries.
5. Congress enacted now fraud-riddled programs for border violator juveniles that promote migrant family separation long before the children reach our border. Cartels, foreign officials, and non-government organizations in source countries and along the way understand the programs and urge violators to leverage them upon arrival...

1st thing any Alt Left clown needs to answer before we debate this
How did the Biden administration lose 346,000 illegal immigrant children?
Wouldn’t happen if they stayed vin their own country or came here legally.
Folks,
Trump has talked about a wall and he has also talked about a “big fat beautiful door.” Part of our MAGA heritage is good immigration. It is a disaster the way it is now. I am 3rd generation immigrant.
Our boarder is not all wall nor is it all door. We need both.
We have many good immigrants here now, working paying taxes, contributing to society.
You may want to get rid of all immigrants but don’t throw the baby out with the bath water.
How do we get the good immigrants?
If they hadn’t come here illegally KNOWING they were breaking the law they wouldn’t be risking getting separated.......so at the end of the day the responsibility for what happens to them in this country lands squarely on them and them alone.
Hmmmmm! Less chance of this happening had they not broken in initially. Remind me where the 300+ thousand ‘separated’ kids are again?
We don’t need more culturally incompatible third worlders, illegal or legal.
We don’t need more culturally incompatible third worlders, illegal or legal.
?? You use the one word, Immigrant.Why?
Trump is talking about illegal aliens. People who broke our law to illegally come into our country.
Trump has many times praised legal Immigrants and has said he wants more LEGAL immigrants.
Do you understand the difference?
"open border advocates" is the CORRECT term, not leftists, not Democrats, but open border advocates.
That is STILL a force in the Republican wing of the Uniparty even though they may have went to ground since Trump's popular vote victory.
Is there anyone who thinks that China Mitch and Goober Grahamnesty will not be working below the radar to SABOTAGE Trump's actions to get this illegal invasion under control?
Deport them all.
Let Mexico sort them out.
Oh, for heaven's sake! They didn't lose them. Upon payment (probably to Hunter), from the sex slavers these children were turned over to those slavers. SO THEY WERE NEVER LOST!
Terminate every single “program” Mayorkas started on day one. Then throw them all out.
Every last one.

So concerned with the “migrant” ILLEGAL INVADERS family separation but not so concerned with 300 thousand missing children
Homan has said that he is not going to separate families - they are all being deported together.
I see no problem with that ...
The migrant bass turd separated their own families. The turd rollers need to stop pinning their BS on the Gringos. They sent their toddlers to the border alone in their jammies. We Americans didn’t do that. You dumbass Mexicans did.
“””””How do we get the good immigrants?”””””
Well first you start by not taking in people who have broken the law. If you are here illegally you have broken the law.
