Trump law: separate immigrant kids from parents

[Dawg]

As a Pediatrician I’m legally required to call Child Protective Services on the Trump Regime

This is child abuse. US Feds are perpetrating terror upon children.

What made me call Child Protective Services was when I saw Attorney General Jeff Sessions grin as he had the audacity to read scripture justifying the cruelty, trauma, and abuse of immigrant children. Traumatized children and youth throughout America’s history have seen that sanctimonious smirk before. For centuries, enslaved children heard the misuse of scripture to justify their separation from parents as they were legally sold by smiling auctioneers. Federal officials grinned as Sessions did as they “assimilated” Native American children and gave them “religious” reasons for separating them from families and homelands. Japanese American children and families were given friendly sermons in internment camps. I was not there for those children, but I’m here now.

This clip is a case-study in Trump lying: In a very rare on-camera exchange with reporters, & in a rare moment where reporters fact-check him on the spot, he gets annoyed, insists they let him speak and then repeats his lie, deliberately, consciously, brazenly, several more times.

REPORTER: Why did Sessions announce the family-separation policy?

TRUMP: He's following the law.

REPORTER: It's not a law!

TRUMP: The Democrats gave us the laws. I want the laws to be beautiful.

so by the president enforcing the laws of the previous president he is a liar in libber land? WOW you people are high

I'm afraid lefty surrendered all moral standing on any issue when he/she enabled the wholesale laughter of some 60,000,000+ babies from 1973-present.

Now then, a pro-life person could most certainly credibly take issue with Trump's enforcement of existing law...but you mass-butchering leftists cannot. You folks are merely trying to squeeze a little political benefit from the suffering of others...as always.

Thanks for providing another example showing that Republicans care more about fetuses than they do children, live born children.

She has a lot of gall considering she is a foreign born trophy wife bitch

Poor illegal immigrant gold digger, built a "modeling" career first with her clothes on and then with her clothes off, has the same amount of redeeming qualities her husband has......NONE.

UPDATE, November 20, 2014 (Ian Gordon): According to US Customs and Border Protection, 68,541 unaccompanied children were apprehended at the border in fiscal 2014. Despite some government funding for legal aid, many of them are still struggling to find lawyers.

"The children are separated from their parents — or, to be precise, from the adults accompanying them, who may or may not be their parents — when their parents cross the southern U.S. border illegally and are caught and detained. Previously, ... the adults would be released. Under the “zero tolerance” policy of the Trump administration, the adults are being detained and prosecuted. Children cannot be incarcerated with them.

"However, families that arrive together at legal ports of entry and apply for asylum status are generally not split up and are permitted to stay in the U.S. pending the adjudication of their applications...

"Democrats and the mainstream media have accused the administration of separating the children of “immigrants” from their parents and imprisoning them in “cages.” ... The facility at El Cajon, however, is not a “cage.” It is a comfortable facility providing lodging, meals, clothing, medical care, education, recreation, counseling, and other services. "It is run by a nonprofit organization called Southwest Key as part of the Department of Health and Human Services’ Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) Program, run by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) in the Administration for Children and Familes (ACF) ... Southwest Key has operated its facilities — 27 in total, across California, Arizona, and Texas — since 1997...This is not a new problem, even though it took Trump to make the media realize it existed."

It's a relief to know the concentration camps for children that we are now learning the U.S. has been operating for decades are (allegedly) very humane ... from someone who says the same about Auschwitz ... sure hope they stay that way as the number of kids incarcerated in them skyrockets.

 

[EatTheRich]

Sounds sooooooo much better for lefty Trump haters when they call the facility a "concentration camp" and pretend these kids are being mistreated and practically tortured, doesn't it? Coming from where they are coming from, they never had it so good... and they can thank their parents who brought them here and snuck them over the border illegally into a country that hasn't invited them.

They'd be shot elsewhere.

It is by definition a concentration camp no matter where on the brutality spectrum between Manzanar and Jasenovac it is.

What's wrong with making babies laugh?

 

[EatTheRich]

One difference: they aren't putting ALL American parents in prison.

 

[Constitutional Sheepdog]

One difference: they aren't putting ALL American parents in prison.

there is a difference between CITIZENS and Illegals.

 

[EatTheRich]

there is a difference between CITIZENS and Illegals.

Yes, an arbitrary legal distinction, just as Nazi Germany had an arbitrary legal distinction between Jews and Aryans.

Separating children from their parents at the border breaks my heart

She believes we need to be a country that follows all laws, but also a country that governs with heart.

One difference: they aren't putting ALL American parents in prison

Did either of you actually read the article I linked?
"families that arrive together at legal ports of entry and apply for asylum status are generally not split up and are permitted to stay in the U.S. pending the adjudication of their applications" and 90% of the children in detention arrived unaccompanied by an adult.

Any concern for the trafficking of these children away from their parents, through Central America and Mexico to go unaccompanied to the US border? Any concern for the Mexican government loading these children onto buses at its Southern border and shipping them North to the US as their means of dealing with them? Any concern for the poverty and crime and corruption that drives Latin American's to go through this in the first place?
No, no, and no. Only concern for political capital to use against the President.

With no concern for the facts or the law, let alone children, either.

No one wants to see children suffering to any degree. To accuse anyone of feeling otherwise is deplorable. To do so for the sake of partisan politics is beyond reprehensible.

concentration camps for children

Yes, an arbitrary legal distinction, just as Nazi Germany had an arbitrary legal distinction between Jews and Aryans.

The attempt at evocation through the use of the terms "concentration camps" and "Nazi Germany" is inaccurate, irrelevant, dishonest, propagandist, and cheap.

The distinction between citizens and foreign nationals in a country illegally is no more arbitrary than any other legal distinction. It's valid, reasonable, rational, and necessary. It's the law, and the the POTUS has a constitutional duty to enforce the law. If one wishes the law changed, one ought write one's congressional representatives.

The distinction between Jews and others is not at all arbitrary; it's quite real and a distinction made by Jews themselves.
It's also irrelevant to this discussion and put forth as a technique both unsound and lazy to support an argument that has no foundation in law or reason.

Trump's policy of holding children hostage to win Cong'l funding of his Wall is despicable. Giving in to this demand may end today's suffering, but will only lead to worse things in the future. Compromise is the key to legislation, but concession to evil leads only to more evil.

There's no law of the previous admin that forces agents to kidnap kids at the border after agents keep them from going to legal ports of entry

"families that arrive together at legal ports of entry and apply for asylum status are generally not split up and are permitted to stay in the U.S. pending the adjudication of their applications"..

This is false

https://www.aclu.org/cases/ms-l-v-icehttps://www.aclu.org/cases/ms-l-v-ice

The American Civil Liberties Union filed a federal lawsuit seeking to reunite an asylum-seeking mother and her 7-year-old daughter fleeing violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo, only to be forcibly torn from each other in the U.S. and detained separately 2,000 miles apart

The lawsuit cites violations of the Constitution’s due process clause, federal law protecting asylum seekers, and of the government’s own directive to keep families intact. "Ms. L" and her daughter were reunited in March, though the national

class-action lawsuit in this case continues.

.

Also, the "trick" the agents are pulling is NOT to tell the immigrants where the legal ports of entry are or disallowing them entry into legal ports to be processed

This is some evil stuff yaw

This policy is evil

Exploiting children for political gain is evil.

MAGA Nationalist should stop exploiting the kids then

You seem grumpy that you were unable to hack and shred these ones in the womb.
