The terms of this EO would conflict with the 1997 Flores case ruling, which means lawsuits would be imminent. A family will sue for release after 20 days, and will win. The lawyers will get a nationwide injunction. And we’ll be right back to where we are today — Trump saying he’s forced to separate children from parents and Congress has to fix it.

Also, they aren't going to apply it to the children already being put into detention since the policy was put into place.

The problem isn't being solved, it's being compounded.

All God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.


I never met anyone who didn't have a very smart child. What happens to these children, you wonder, when they reach adulthood?
