Breitbart: 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.

#14, George W signed this law. Somebody should probably tell Laura.

#15, They are averaging 250 kids a day. This is a damn invasion.
Take them right back to the border on buses. Shit, cut off welfare and medical, and watch them drive themselves back to the border.
Bottom line; the media doesn’t give a damn about the truth. It’s f-Trump and the American people 24/7/365.

If you look at the shear numbers of new Democrats trying to gain entry, there’s no way in hell we could financially support them. Nor are we willing.
Build the wall! And make sure anyone climbing the wall can be seen from our side. Then, apply the castle doctrine to protecting our country from invaders, allowing US Citizens the right to protect our country from invasion.
I am getting very tired of people questioning the situation down on the border with accusations that the Trump Administration is keeping children in concentration camps. Why is this even subject to debate? It’s easily proven by anyone willing to examine the historical record. Everyone knows that Attorney General Jefferson Beauregard Sessions was an author of the 1935 Nuremberg Laws that authorizes the Trump Administration to separate these innocent children from their illegal alien parents. Want more proof? There are several photographs that show the aforementioned Sessions and his Aryan Assistant Kirstjen Nielsen in the company of Nazi Members Reinhard Heydrict, Heinrich Muller, and Adolf Eichmann at the January 20, 1942 Wannsee Conference. Don’t believe me? Just try and prove that they were not there.
The logic of the libtards, if applied across the board would have convicted felons walk free if they have children.
If that was the case just imagine how many female inmates would find a way to get pregnant. Just imagine who many convict male felons would all of sudden remember they were fathers and just wanted to be reunited with their families.
It’s chaos- but it is consistent with the De Niro school of journalism: F- Trump.
I keep hearing about “unaccompanied miners.”

Alternative solution: Charter buses back to Nicaragua, Honduras, Belize, wherever.
One way only.
