Just substitute the name of one issue for another and you'll have the game plan. Plus, in this case the media has truly manufactured the outrage. No one cares this has been happening for years, no one cares it happens to American families every day with more frequency and less due process. People are upset about this because they were told to be upset about this, nothing more. Immigration law is a real problem.

Also explain to me why, that if they care about children so much all of sudden, how is it ok to perform late term abortions.

President Donald Trump’s former lawyer and close ally Michael Cohen resigned from his Republican National Committee post Wednesday and denounced the administration’s family separation policy in his resignation letter, reports ABC News. Cohen blamed the time-consuming Mueller investigation as a major reason for his resignation, ABC reports, but he took a surprising stance against the administration by criticizing the forced separation of migrant families. “As the son of a Polish holocaust survivor, the images and sounds of this family separation policy is heart wrenching,” Cohen wrote in the letter, cited by ABC. “While I strongly support measures that will secure our porous borders, children should never be used as bargaining chips.” Cohen used to serve as the deputy finance chair of the RNC’s Finance Committee.

B-Man Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 The Utter Hypocrisy And Stupidity Of The Illegal Immigrant Parent-Child Separation Debate https://www.dailywire.com/news/32091/utter-hypocrisy-and-stupidity-illegal-immigrant-ben-shapiro … This is an era of massive hypocrisy. On the one hand, you have the Left arguing that policy must change with regard to family separation at the border. That would be the same Left that argued in 2014 that it was utterly inhumane to keep children locked up with their illegal immigrant parents, and sued to have that policy changed. On the other hand, you have the Trump administration arguing that “zero tolerance” at the border was good policy, and that family separation was merely a byproduct of the legal workings of the system; the Trump administration also argued that they didn’t have the legal authority to unilaterally overrule Ninth Circuit rulings on the Flores settlement. That would be the same Trump administration now arguing that Trump can unilaterally change policy through executive action. On that first hand again, the Left argues that separation policy is essentially Nazi-esque evil. These would be the same people on the Left rejecting a legislative fix in order to “keep the focus” on President Trump, as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) so charmingly put it. On that other hand again, the Right argues that separating parents from children is a deterrent, while at the same time arguing that the policy is an Obama holdover for which the Trump administration bears no responsibility. So, here’s the simple reality. The Trump administration did not create separation policy. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals did. The Trump administration did push a zero-tolerance policy on border crossing, treating all those who enter the country illegally as criminals. The Trump administration does not have the executive authority to unilaterally change law, as ruled by the Ninth Circuit. The policy should be changed, and should never have been discussed as a deterrent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALF Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Cost of detaining migrant kids higher than keeping them with families By Bob Fredericks June 20, 2018 The cost of holding migrant children who have been separated from their parents in “tent cities” is $775 per person per night — far more expensive than keeping kids with their parents in detention centers, a new report said Wednesday. The reason for the higher cost to taxpayers, according to an official at the Department of Health and Human Services, is that the need to arrange for security, bring in air conditioning, medical workers and other government contractors is much higher than the costs for existing facilities that are already staffed, NBC News reported. It costs $256 per night to hold kids in permanent HHS facilities like Casa Padre in Brownsville, Texas. Keeping them with their parents in detention centers like the one run by ICE in Dilley, Texas, cost $298 per person per night, according to an agency estimate when it awarded the contract for the facility in 2014, the network reported. https://nypost.com/2018/06/20/cost-of-detaining-migrant-kids-more-expensive-than-keeping-them-with-families/ I can't imagine that cost is accurate.

And please do not answer" but Obama" The reason why many are upset, and the reason why this is still and issue is because the executive branch is not supposed to legislate with a pen and a phone. It's supposed to happen in Congress, where they have the power (the only ones who have the constitutional power) to create laws that will last beyond themselves and whoever sits in the Oval. The ACLU is already filing suit to get the EO overturned. That's because Congress will not take action. You're right this is political. It's always been political, by both sides. But one side is working to fix a problem through the means described in the constitution and the other is advocating for executive fiat. The irony is thick, especially when the side wishing to rule through executive order calls the other authoritarian fascists. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
