Bruce, you are correct to note the relevance of Flores settlement, however, you are mistaken in believing that the current administration wants to comply with it. In fact, Trump's Executive Order requires Sessions to seek to modify Flores, and that modification
request was filed 2 weeks ago.</div>

Also, you are correct that Trump has not changed immigration law--as the Executive, he does not have the power to change the law. However, he and Sessions have *radically* changed immigration policy and practice, which amounts to the same thing for people on
the ground. </div>

Finally, you are incorrect in believing that Trump/Sessions were trying to "deal with the 'separating families' issue". In fact, they created the issue intentionally as a deterrent to migration.</div>

<div>Please read item 2 in the following link. Note the year that this settlement was reached. The government is required to take care of unaccompanied children who cross the border illegally. This fact seems to have been overlooked by liberal media and
spun into "separating families". </div>

<div>Trump and Sessions have not changed immigration law. They are enforcing immigration law as written (zero tolerance). I don't know about you, but I want POTUS and the AG to enforce the law as written not cherry pick the parts they want to enforce.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you want to help these kids, stop blaming Trump/Sessions for something that happened in ~1997, stop the unending outrage and protests that accomplish nothing. Call call your representative and demand that they address these and other immigration related
issues (DACA for example). Trump attempted to address "separating families" with his recent executive order, but that won't help unaccompanied children illegally crossing the border. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Without the spin, Trump is the first president since 1997 (that I'm aware of) who by executive order took a stab at dealing with the "separating families" issue. Some of you and the liberal media respond by demonstrating, marching, protesting, blockading
ICE offices, demanding that ICE be dissolved, saying Trump's responsible for "separating families", and of course endless outrage. If ICE is dissolved, who going to take care of the unaccompanied children illegally crossing the border? </div>
<div><br>

<div>You can't make this stuff up. It's unbelievable.<br>

Hardly, Trump is cleaning up the immigration mess made by Obama, Bushes, Clinton ... Stop blaming him for enforcing existing immigration laws. The liberal media doesn't want to talk about this because it doesn't suit their narrative and apparently yours.

<div>Why didn't these marches occur before Trump took office. This separation thing has been going on for awhile. Does this mean anything to you marchers?</div>
