They have also separated families at the ports of entry - and despite encouraging people to go to the ports to apply for asylum, they want to make it harder to apply for asylum.

Oh kitten, your what aboutism is out of place. Elian Gonzalez, a minor child, was returned to his FATHER. he was not separated from his parents and placed in a cage. And while they could have done it differently, he was reunited with his family.https://www.cnn.com/2017/08/15/world/cuba-elian-gonzalez-update/index.html …

And AEDPA and IIRIRA immigration acts signed into law by Clinton that tore families apart? Enforced under him and Obama. Cheered then, suddenly ignored now. The cage picture that caused such as stir when attributed to Trump, later found to be from 2014?

Families are being separated over a misdemeanor, the act of coming into the country to seek ASYLUM. It is also likely unconstitutional, and there are groups that will challenge it.https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/06/us/family-separations-migrants-court.html …

they're being separated for entering the country illegally. I'm not saying what the current admin is doing is right, but having a family is no protection from prosecution, as was done in previous admins.

Entering the country... illegally. Try to nice it up all you want.

They are NOT entering illegally if they are entering for the purpose of applying for asylum. Consult 8 U.S. Code § 1158 (the federal law of the United States).

They’re doing anything they can, including creating horrific
#TrumpConcentrationCamps and lying about their policies, to make sure there are enough stories each hour to distract people from the multiple ongoing law enforcement investigations of the#TrumpCrimeFamily - 1 more reply
