Quote:You will stay forever wrong, 1kiki. The House passed the bill to keep the government open. The Senate passed almost the same bill by 100 to 0. Those GOP idiots in the House can't draft a bill to save their lives, they are that stupid. Then the Senate's bill went back to the House for a proforma vote where the so-called "Freedom Caucus" of Trump zombies mesmerized by The Donald tacked on $5 billion to the Senate's superiorly drafted bill because Trump asked for it. Then the Senate said Trump was an idiot to not have noticed that 100% of the Senate did NOT want a Wall and the Senate was NOT going to vote for a Wall, even if Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (on his way out the door to a lucrative "retirement") decided to slip it in as a way to grease Ryan's future slide into great wealth.

So Congress DIDN'T pass the budget, like you claimed earlier. At least you've gotten one thing right - after getting it wrong.

In his exit interview, John Kelly blames Jeff Sessions for the disastrous family separation policy at the border.
Though he tried to run an orderly White House for the president, some things, Kelly insisted, were outside his control. When US immigration authorities began separating young migrant children from their parents at the border last summer, Kelly says that even the White House was blindsided by the policy. He blames the fallout on Jeff Sessions, who was fired last month from his post as attorney general.
“What happened was Jeff Sessions, he was the one that instituted the zero-tolerance process on the border that resulted in both people being detained and the family separation,” Kelly told the LA Times. “He surprised us.”
The finger-pointing at Sessions is a noteworthy admission considering how the administration addressed the widespread public outcry to the policy, first by denying its existence, then blaming Democrats and past immigration laws before eventually taking ownership of the policy. Then after weeks of backlash, Trump put an end to family separation with an executive order.

ALMOST the same bill doesn't count, SECOND-RATE. You got it wrong. Congress did NOT pass a bill, ready for Trump's signature.
And you will be forever a liar.

Sessions is an idiot, but it wasn't his fault.
No kids would have been separated from their parents or died in the US if they did not cross the border illegally.

Indeed. They're got FAR better care from the US than they got from their parents.

Yes, it seems to be working. There has been a significant reduction in refugees (oops, my bad), I meant to say "illegals" coming to our borders.
Ya know, I must admit when I am wrong, and in this case, boy was I wrong.
Just think, the deaths of these two young kids while in U.S. custody will
deter these "folks" from traveling over two thousand miles to our southern-most border. That long and treacherous journey that terminates at our border with Mexico (who's going to pay for that wall).
And I will bet anything that the parents of these kids do everything in their power to have them die just as they get to our border; then try and sneak past the border patrol and die of starvation or of thirst. Boy oh boy, are those
illegals sneaky. Just like those sneaky fucking Russians.

I wouldn't recommend it in the future for anybody else to try.
The US doesn't even view "financial refugees" as legitimate refugees in the first place, so these adults were throwing their children in harms way for no reason at all.
Risking their kids for zero ROI.
I do agree that this story should get A LOT more coverage than it has. If it did, these parents would know that they had nothing to gain from trying to do this in the first place and they wouldn't put their children through this for no reason. If they had been educated on the facts, it would have saved two children's lives.

Meanwhile private companies set up shop by building and maintaining private "detention centers" (really, concentration camps) and raking in the dough.
The average cost per child is approx. $1200.

The bottom line? When ICE ramps up the number of immigration detainees, it will most likely turn to private companies such as CoreCivic to house them.

That's where the money is today folks. No fuss, no muss, just stacks of cash.

You're just a low-information Nazi dupe. The kind they recruit: Ignorant, hateful, a failure in life with no friends, and looking for some way to blame his failure on "them."

You'd bitch if the government did it. You'd bitch if a private company did it.
These centers wouldn't exist if people didn't enter the country illegally.
Period.

Graham, a Republican, told reporters after meeting Trump for lunch at the White House that Trump was receptive to Graham’s idea of a deal that might provide work permits to so-called Dreamers, people brought illegally to the United States as children, in exchange for money for physical border barriers.
“The president was upbeat, he was in a very good mood, and I think he’s receptive to making a deal,” Graham said, adding that Trump found the potential Dreamer concession “interesting.”
“I don’t see Democrats giving us more money unless they get something. So, the one thing we talked about is making deals,” Graham said.
