It is the Trump administration’s decision this year to prosecute all unlawful immigrants as criminals that has forced the breakup of families; the children are removed when the parents are taken into federal custody. While previous administrations have made exceptions to such prosecutions for adults traveling with their minor children, the Trump administration has said it will not do so.

Previous admin exception was catch and release...Which does work when the adults never show back up for court and can't be found any longer.

In fact, there is no law that requires families to be separated at the border.

No.
You are being lied to.

CNN ran a piece this morning with this narrative followed by an on site correspondent reporting on her personal tour of "the cages". She described several containments with UNACCOMPANIED minors, several with women and their children, and of men in long lines holding their infants as they waited. Most of the piece focused on the facility which was described awfully as a collection of cages or pens.

Of course the piece obliterated CNN's splitting off children narrative. No mention of the fact the facility was an Obama era construction.

They've got absolutely nothing on PDJT. Muh collusion failed. Muh Stormy failed. Muh obstruction failed. Muh racism failed. They have nothing. Nothing.

So the next logical step is to grab the next straw. These libs are fricking sick. They've put these kids in as their political pawns. These motherfrickers didn't give a frick about these kids during the W or BHO tenures. But now that it can be fashionably weaponized against PDJT, they're concern trolling the frick out of us all.

As stated above- if you don't want your family separated, don't cross into our country illegally. Or, change some motherfricking policies to where families get deported together. Fine, don't want to be separated from your kids? We'll gladly bus you back to Tijuana all together. Problem solved. Stop wasting money on trials and hearings. No green card? No papers? Go back to your home, and follow the procedures that thousands of legal immigrants follow, to attain citizenship in the US.
