    I didn’t think you cared about accuracy but thought I’d make sure.

    LOL I don't think anything about that meme was true ;) But you seem to have found a way to trivialize it!

    Good job MG!

    So when Obama took the parents/criminals in to custody/holding cells until their hearing, the little children were with them the whole time ;) You really going with that..

    If the parents didn’t have any serious crimes on the record and could prove they were the parents, they were released until their immigration hearing.

    ....or they could have chosen instead to get in the official "path to citizenship" line like everyone else and not had to show up to trials or ever fear being deported in the first place. You know, the way that most migrants do "moving to America".

    I posted earlier about how that’s just not realistic for many people, especially in South America.

    Most were. Not sure what you’re getting at.
    A Boston Globe investigation called the application of the family separation policy "opaque", reporting that Border Patrol, judges, government case workers, public defenders, and federal prosecutors had no clear answers about the reunification process or how separated parents can contact their children. Reportedly, it was difficult to reconnect children to their parents because children and parents entered two separate systems: parents were put in ICE custody and then entered the US Department of Homeland Security to face criminal prosecution while children were classified as an "unaccompanied alien child" and transferred to the US Department of Health and Human Services. Therefore, authorities no longer tracked them as a family unit and there was no system in place to reunite them.

    So you don't have a problem now with putting these children in horrible conditions that are like concentration camps in their cages in violation of their civil rights?

    And if there is no confirmation the adult is the parent or legal guardian of the child release the child with the adult to go their merry way? And why release them if they are making illegal claims for asylum? There is a legal process to do so and they violated it. They should be deported. And why don't we just tell the country of their origin's Embassy take custody of THEIR citizen and get them back to THEIR citizen parents?

    Until the proof can be confirmed, it is the LAW.

    No they need some documentation to show it’s their kid
    What’s an illegal claim for asylum when they haven’t had a hearing yet? You can request asylum at a port of entry.
    We split them up, we should be fixing it

    They are indeed antithetical to American values, but let's put it like this: Peace in the region, or constantly mediating between the two sides? What has done more for the US and for the world? To me, the pro-heavy hand towards Israel has made the Arabic nations finally say "Well, they're here to stay and the "jihad crusade" is pointless so they're finally starting to modernize in some ways.

    Now, if Israel were to start say genocide that would change the calculus, but I think it's about drawing final lines and getting the Israeli government to see where those lines would be for "Israel's safety".

    Why, you call it abomination and travesty of justice if it happens on Trump’s watch, and a necessity if it happens on sleepy Joe’s watch.

    Simple, really.

    No kid can muster 1,000 miles journey. They’ve been helped by Cortez woman and sleepy Joe along the way.

    That's fine! So win, lose or draw with judges, Border patrol, case workers, prosecutors Yada-yada, aren't you the slightest bit curious how these children have become property and wards of the U.S? I mean seriously, how many parents do you know that would NOT do everything in their power to reclaim their children?

    And you create your own curiosity. What would you have done with the children while the men and women were separate FOR OBVIOUS reason awaiting a hearing? Clearly you wouldn't house children with adults that have no ID! Then again the mere mention of DHHS or DFS begins a entirely different set of bureaucracy and insanity.. Once those people get involved you're lucky to get your child back as a American citizen let alone a faceless illegal..

    Anyway, no one is to blame but the abusing and neglectful parent, kidnapper or whatever.. MPO if the child was never reunited with their parent be it Mexico, the border or within the U.S. then they were never going to be claimed anyway.. And that my friend is why open borders and soft immigration laws are so dangerous for WE the people and those children caught up in bullshit on both sides of the fence..

    Doubt I used either of those words, but so long as Biden is not separating families, it’s not the same.

    Funny how the partisanship causes sudden 180's in opinions...almost like their "concern" was never genuine at all.
