The fire hose of fake news from the establishment media this week on the
issue of illegal immigrant families separated at the border is designed to
mislead the American people - and to distract from Trump's recent successes.
Here are the facts - 13 truths the media do not want you to know about
President Trump's legal, humane, and moral handling of adults and children
who enter our country illegally.
Trump Is Only Enforcing the Law:
The establishment media's manufactured narrative about the necessary and
moral separation of illegal alien parents from their children is designed
with the specific purpose of spreading the fake news that, only as a means
to be cruel, President Trump is somehow making all of this up as he goes
along.
In truth, Trump is only complying with and enforcing the law, which is his
constitutional duty and responsibility.
When the media claim Trump has a "choice," what they mean is he has a choice
to ignore the law as Obama did when he illegally released untold numbers of
illegals into America.
Trump's "zero tolerance policy" is merely his administration treating all
lawbreakers as lawbreakers, because the only other option is to let them
loose into America with nothing but a court summons.
Trump's Only Choice Is to Separate Illegal Alien Families:
When an illegal alien crosses the border into the U.S., he is a lawbreaker,
and, like any lawbreaker (including American citizens), he is put into the
criminal justice system.
This is the law.
Obviously, when an illegal alien is in custody, he is housed in an adult
detention center. For obvious reasons, it would be illegal for Trump to
"reunite" this family by allowing children to live in adult detention
centers.
Keep in mind that when we are this early in the process, we do not even know
if this is a real family unit. It is not uncommon for illegal aliens
(including criminals) to pretend the children they are traveling with are
their own. They do so in the hope this special family status will result in
them being released (this madness is known as "catch and release") into
America with nothing more than a court date - a date many never show for,
most especially those with criminal intent.
And so, while the illegal adult is held in an adult detention center, the
migrant child is cared for in shelters run by the Department of Health and
Human Services.
Generally, the adult illegal is processed quickly, sentenced to time served,
and the family is quickly reunited during the deportation process.
In other words, in order to keep the family unit together, we can either put
children in adult detention centers (unthinkable), put adults in child
detention centers (unthinkable), or hold no one, which means "catch and
release," which means letting even more illegal immigrants loose to live in
our country illegally.
The only moral and legal option here is to temporarily separate families
while the criminal justice system runs its course.
The Left Wants Illegal Aliens to Enjoy Privileges Denied to American
Citizens:
If an American citizen breaks the law and is funneled into the justice
system, he is separated from his family and children. This American citizen
is not allowed to keep his family with him in a detention center.
Once again, our media want illegal aliens to enjoy special rights and
privileges American citizens do not enjoy.
One more point.
These migrants are guilty of walking minor children through miles and miles
of desert with the intent of committing a crime (crossing a border
illegally).
If you or I walked a child through miles and miles of desert with the intent
of committing a crime, child protective services would take our children
away (and should).
Asylum Seekers Not Breaking the Law are Not Being Separated:
If you cross the border illegally and claim asylum, you are still a
lawbreaker. Regardless of your intent, crossing the border illegally
automatically puts you in the criminal justice system, where you will
obviously be separated from family.
These asylum seekers are choosing to break the law, are choosing to be
separated from family.
Asylum seekers who respect our laws, by turning themselves in at legal
points of entry, are not being separated. Over-crowding due to the abuse of
this policy might eventually make this impossible, but it is up to Congress
to allocate more funds.
Trump Is Correct About the Loophole:
In 1997, a consent decree called the Flores Settlement made it illegal for
America to hold migrant children for longer than 20 days. Meaning, in order
to keep the family together after 20 days of detention, we can either
reunite the family by letting them loose to live illegally in America, or we
can keep the parent in detention and place the child in a foster home or
with a relative who lives in America.
Trump is wisely choosing to do the latter (for a number of moral reasons I
will explain later).
A case involving an illegal border crosser not seeking asylum is usually
adjudicated before the 20 days are up, which means the family unit is
reunited during deportation and no foster care is needed. This, obviously,
is the best case scenario.
Those who cross the border illegally and then claim asylum status (an
important distinction from asylum seekers who obey the law) are another
story, because the asylum process almost always exceeds the 20 days, and
this is the law the Trump administration wants changed.
By speeding up the asylum process, the family unit can be reunited faster,
either in the deportation process (if asylum is not granted - and this
process is frequently abused) or in the resettlement process (if asylum is
granted).
Another option is to end the 20-day limit so foster care does not become
necessary. Parent and child can remain in the detention centers until the
asylum process is settled.
"Reuniting" Families Would Be a Disaster for Countless Children:
Again, the only way to "keep a family together" is to allow illegals to pour
into our country.
This policy would be a total disaster, especially for the children.
If word gets out that America automatically allows illegal border crossers
with small children loose into America just because they have minor
children, this would only further incentivize those who engage in the child
abuse of dragging children along on the unbelievably dangerous trek across
the border - or, even worse, both exploiting them for catch-and-release and
then trafficking them after making it into the country.
No one who truly cares about these children wants to further incentivize
that kind of abuse.
Obama and Democrats Incentivized This 'Family Separation':
Until Obama came along, illegal border crossings primarily involved young,
single men. Obama incentivized the idea of dragging minor children along on
this dangerous journey (where many children are sexually assaulted) through
his policy of "catch and release."
Once word got out that illegals with small children would be let loose into
America, the number of children crossing the border exploded.
Again, the last thing decent people want is for the American government to
further incentivize the cruel act of bringing small children along on this
brutal trip across the border, which is exactly what Trump is hoping to stop
with his zero tolerance policy.
Barack Obama Separated Illegal Alien Families, Media Said Nothing
Under Obama, when illegal border crossers were put into the criminal justice
system, families were indeed separated. Obama, of course, rarely prosecuted,
even though the law calls for it.
Neither Democrats nor the media cared about family separation then, which
proves this manufactured and coordinated uproar is only about politics.
The only reason the media suddenly came to care about family separation is
as a means to fabricate a controversy, as a tactic to distract voters from
three legitimate news stories from last week that benefit Trump: 1) our
economy is booming, 2) Trump had a successful summit with North Korea, and
3) the Inspector General report exposed James Comey's FBI as a swamp of
corruption out to exonerate Hillary Clinton and frame Trump.
IMPORTANT: The ONLY Way to Unite Families Is to Release Them into America:
Obviously, we cannot have children living in adult detention centers.
Obviously, we cannot have adults living in child detention centers.
Therefore, the only way to "reunite" these families is to release these
illegals into our country.
The media will not tell you this because the media do not want you to know
that flooding America with non-citizens is their true agenda. The rich and
powerful love to exploit and abuse these individuals, as they can leverage
their immigration status for illegally low wages, and politicians are
salivating at the chance to bestow voting rights on them - and thus entrench
their power.
But when you hear the media call for these families to be reunited, remember
that is coded language that means only one thing: releasing illegal aliens
into our country with nothing more than a court summons.
Incentivizing the Act of Bringing Minor Children Across the Border Is Evil:
The media do not want to inform Americans of one crucial fact: the dangers
inherent in crossing the border from Mexico into America, most especially
the dangers faced by minor children. Sadly, these dangers too often involve
sexual abuse.
Decent people who truly care about these children, like President Trump,
want to do everything in their power to end this abuse - either by building
a wall, or through this zero tolerance policy that will hopefully curb this
abusive practice.
Evil people want these children dragged across the border, want this abuse
incentivized by "keeping the family unit together," because flooding the
country with future indebted voters is more important to them than the
safety and well-being of small children.
Those Who Come to America Legally Face 'Family Separation':
Many people who come to America legally from other countries are separated
from family. A big part of America's LEGAL immigration policy involves
family separation when one or two family members come over before the rest
are legally or financially able.
And so, once again, we have the media and Democrats demanding special
treatment for illegal immigrants that legal immigrants do not enjoy. Once
again we are incentivizing lawbreaking and treating the line-jumpers better
than those who follow the rules.
"Family Reunification" Is an Invitation to Human Traffickers:
Because of "catch and release," because of this dumb and destructive
loophole carved out for families, the number of illegal aliens using
children to enter the U.S. increased by 315 percent between October 2017 and
February 2018.
Trump understands what is happening and this is why he has moved to a zero
tolerance policy.
Anything other than zero tolerance only serves as an incentive for human
traffickers and other criminals to use these children as their free pass
into America.
Incentivizing such a thing is monstrous:
Media Do Not Give a Shit About American Families Separated by Criminal
Illegal Aliens:
Illegal alien families are choosing to be separated by voluntarily engaging
in lawbreaking. These illegal alien families, if they so choose, can stay
together, simply by obeying the law.
This is not hard.
Those who do not have a choice in family separation are the legions of
American families permanently separated from family members when that family
member is killed at the hands of an illegal alien.
As Steve Bannon accurately pointed out over the weekend, "I don't see the
mainstream media and the liberal left embracing the Angel Moms, those people
who were permanently separated from their children because of illegal aliens
who came over here and committed crimes and killed people. You're being very
selective."
