      I'm asking WH officials about WaPo story saying Trump admin stopping zero tolerance policy. They don't know anything about it and were not aware of breaking story.

      Update from CBP, which does not clear things up. I've asked if this means that only adults without families will be referred for prosecution, or if it means adults with families also be referred (and, if so, what does the second sentence mean) —>pic.twitter.com/gsuxwncOzJ

          It sounds like they still can separate families for illegally crossing the border, no?

          If CBP is only allowed to detain children for a brief interim period of time until they can transfer them to ORR, how is CBP going to refer the parent to prosecution, let DOJ prosecute them + give U.S. Marshals custody, and then find their kid all in that brief interim period?

          ... could technically be that CBP won't refer. DOJ's policy is to prosecute every case they get, but they don't control the inputs.

          These people have no idea what they are doing and now they have activists, clergy members, reporters, and congressional members breathing down their necks. It would be like if Homer Simpson had a team of inspectors come observe him for a month.

          As if the admin is going to declare open borders for anyone to come into the US. Pretty sure the EU has not had the greatest experience with that policy.
