This is a lie. Anytime the Senate wants they can change the rules back to majority.

Of course...and I know this is hard to grasp...the Republicans could actually write legislation that is more broadly acceptable too. I know, crazy huh?

Where was your outrage and love for the children during the last (Obama) administration?

Please take note of my source.

In 2013 Barack Obama Separated Thousands Of U.S.-Born Children From Parents

The Huffington Post reported:

Quote:
Immigration and Customs Enforcement last year carried out more than 72,000 deportations of parents who said they had U.S.-born children, according to reports to Congress obtained Wednesday by The Huffington Post.

The reports were sent by ICE in April to the Senate Appropriations Committee and the Senate Judiciary Committee, as required by law. ICE confirmed the authenticity of the two reports, which lay out 72,410 removals of immigrants who said they had one or more U.S.-born children in 2013.

Advocates for halting some deportations have pointed to cases involving parents of children who are U.S. citizens, saying parents should not be separated from their children except in extreme circumstances.

The reports show that even parents of U.S. citizens are among the hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants being expelled from the United States each year…

(And yes, Obama had "child detention" cages which you and others tried to blame on Trump!)

Please post your comments, that you'd made in this forum few years ago, when obama gave the kids to child traffickers instead of to their parents.

Turns out that under law some mistakes can't be fixed. Who knew laws were so complicated?


As usual the ready, fire, aim style of governance (ie incompetence) of this administration continues.
Good, let the Mexicans handle it south of the border when we export them all. We need to shut down the country at once and stop all this dem bull**** that is aimed at taking down the prez.

Mexico does not like our country. They do nothing to stop their people from coming here illegally. They don't care about their family's separating!

You ignored my first sentence. You should try reading it.

Its amazing how people keep repeating the same often repeated nonsense.


Let them stay at your house! (uhmm no I pay a ton in taxes to avoid that, but by far the cheapest choice is to let them stay with relatives or friends until they go to their court hearings-where the majority DO in fact show up)


Obama did it! No he did not. This is utter garbage-and most posting it know it. Come on folks, have a debate instead of yelling "gotcha" statements that are VERY misleading.

When I see nonsense like that, its clear you folks arent here to discuss a topic. You're hear to try and yell down a topic with nonsense. arguments that have been REPEATEDLY debunked.

no alternatives to offer, just shrieks of pretend, outraged indignation.
