A federal judge in California on Friday approved a court settlement that will prohibit federal U.S. border officials from reviving the Trump-era "zero tolerance" family separation policy for the next eight years.
Under the settlement between the American Civil Liberties Union and the Biden administration, the federal government will be barred from separating migrant families solely for the purposes of prosecuting the parents for entering the U.S. illegally. There are limited exceptions to the eight-year ban, such as when a parent poses a risk to their children.

Remain in Mexico is a much more important/effective policy. This one was more punitive than effective.
The problem is asylum, which is mandated by our international agreements.
We'd basically have to withdraw from the Geneva Convention to effectively do anything about asylum abuse.

That or state suicide?
Seems like an easy decision

How are people from other countries allowed to pass through Mexico to seek asylum? Shouldn’t asylum be at the first “safe” place they come to? Explain it to me like I’m 42

No. Asylum law requires oppressed to stay in first country they come where they are not persecuted. That means Mexico for the most part.

Or regulating ports of entry, which Remain in Mexico does, which is why it's much more important than spitting up families who've already made it here.
Or we could just invest in Central America and Gain exponentially more benefits without the risk of economic migration being so alluring. Better them than China.

I don't think many countries rely on that interpretation including US courts.

A future administration should not recognize this as binding in any way.
The Biden administration has no constitutional authority to obligate a future administration except through legislation (changing the law) or by treaty (which requires ratification by the Senate).

DNA testing to prove relation was also thrown out.
What a waste of voting GOPe, who for 30 years campaigned on fixing this.

If family separation is not allowed then it is imperative that those families not be allowed to enter the U.S. at all. The British government had the idea to send asylum seekers to Rwanda as a safe third country. Perhaps the U.S. Government could make a similar deal.

ACLU may as well be part of the Biden administration. They are negotiating with themselves.

I think we'll keep protecting the rule of law.

This is not true. It's going to lead to a court order.
You're arguing that administrations can ignore court orders.

Why do you do this? Nothing actually says we have to take people that are coming from all over the world.
In reality a lot of the past and present Central Americans should seek asylum in the nearest country. So like Mexico, which isn’t a poor country stacked up to all countries.
And we sure as hell shouldn’t be taking people from anywhere across the Atlantic or pacific.

If they claim asylum, we do, under the Geneva convention. Like I said, "We'd basically have to withdraw from the Geneva Convention to effectively do anything about asylum abuse."

Cite me the binding cases that you're relying on to make that claim.

Who defines asylum? Because I don’t have a huge problem with actual asylum, which 99.9 percent of the “seekers” don’t qualify.
Your country being a shithole isn’t asylum.

The Geneva Convention and courts interpreting our treaties.

You're correct, but that's fraudulent asylum, which still involves due process to determine the fraud. That's the "asylum abuse" referenced in the stuff you quoted above.

There’s no way every country who signed it is enforcing it the same way. Our courts are just taking the most liberal interpretation possible.
We could definitely make major changes and still abide by the treaty.
