Oh, wait, this must be one of those things that the Administration can't agree on, and one side of his administration says one thing, and a different part of the administration says something completely different. This has been happening so much in this f'd up adminsitration. Can't get their stories straight and can't work together. |
So a leak to Fox is now an official WH announcement? |
It's not a leak. It does seem like the WH is saying two different things. They want to keep DACA and get rid of it. If they get rid of it, though, they're going to have to do something, path to LPR/citizenship, finite deferred action, immediate removal. The WH isn't ready or able to make a real decision about this. |
Exactly. Too complicated for this WH to touch without effing it up bigly. |
You must be new in town. All of the recent administrations have "signaled" intentions ahead of actually taking action - usually through meetings with favored reporters, where they speak "off the record." Calling is a "leak" is a bit overly dramatic, don't you agree? |
This. |
| Who is leaking to Fox News? We need to get to the bottom of this. Has anybody called Jeff Sessions? |
The Obama WH typically gave "off the record" comments to WaPo or WSJ; not surprising that the Trump WH favors Fox. |
| Punishing innocent children. Right up the bully Trump's alley! He only kicks people who can't kick him back, the coward! |
Innocent children are almost always punished when a parent breaks the law. It's unfortunate but nevertheless a consequence. |
So, our government will further punish them. Got it. |
What do you think happens to the innocent kid whose father sits on death row??? |
They aren't sent to another country with a different language and culture. |
which is why our immigration laws should be strictly enforced in the first place--unless you think pretty much anyone/everyone should be allowed to immigrate here. |
It's a shoulda woulda coulda game. The reality is that there have been illegal immigrants in this country for over a century. Our immigration laws should be fixed as well as enforced, but Trumpsters only care about the "enforce" part because the "fix" part is too hard. It's kind of like "who knew healthcare was so complicated". If it's too hard, then we'll just ignore it and blame the other side and the poor illegal immigrants. Pretty convenient. |
