If I remember correctly, Trump, Congressional Republicans, and Democrats has a DACA along with 25B border security agreement, and then Trump backed out at the last minute.
There has been much finger pointing over this issue.. both sides have politicized it to the point it is today and the fact it has not been resolved is disgusting… with real people dying and suffering while those in the “land of the free” wring their little hands in the comfort of their homes.
As I recall… on this side of the fence we gave amnesty to a lot of draft dodgers back 55 odd years ago.. some of those same folk are now are wearing MAGA hats and screaming the loudest.
Thing is, we’ve spend lots of bucks educating those kids over the years. Let them stay, find jobs and pay some taxes. Republicans think of everything in terms of money; let them think about that for a change.
The bipartisan bill presented by Graham and Durbin in January 2018 that Trump had promised to sign fixed DACA and provided $2.7 billion for border security. Trump reneged on his promise.
So the Republican answer is to put her in a cage, sexually abuse her and then kill her. The Democrats didn’t abandon her, but the Republicans made sure she paid for it.
2) are not (i.e., no longer) little children (false portrayal)
3) crossed the border more than a decade ago and so are not currently a matter for the Border Patrol (on enlargement, the shoulder patch appears to read “USBP”, not “ICE”)
4) were not separated from their parents (as implied by no parents being in the cartoon) when they did enter the US; in fact, they were brought into the US by their parents
Any adult who knowingly brings a child across a border of a foreign land illegally is the person(s) to be held morally responsible for the legal fate of that child, regardless of how much time passes. So if John is smuggled across the border of Isdastan as a child and 30 years later he is discovered to have no legal citizenship status in that country, and is expelled, that is the ‘fault’ of whoever brought John in initially.
If a burglar brings his child with him when he enters my home without permission, does the child have a right to remain? Does rewarding past lawlessness encourage future lawlessness?

Gotta love the Trump Disciple analysis skills. Special.
Trump’s administration asked the U.S. Supreme Court in November to allow the president to end Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA. (MSNBC News 01/02/2019)
Trump offered citizenship to 1.8 Million dreamers at a point the Dems were asking for green cards for fewer than 1 million.
The return was wall funding and reduction of lottery and chain immigrants.
The Dems absolutely refused. Threw the dreamers under the bus. Never countered. Just walked away.
Until the Schumer shutdown.
No one wants to talk about WHY. The Dems want those chain migrants to keep flowing. 750k-1M per year, with a 3-5 year path to citizenship. Guess who those new citizens vote for.
Trump understands that unlimited chain migration will result in a permanent Dem majority.
Neither side wants to talk about the politics of that massive stumbling block.

What do you say about an out and out lie…except to point out how totally fallacious it is. This lie is so great that even many Rs don’t buy into it.
But good job of parroting the deranged president Ramirez. It’s your career.

The POS POTUS turned down billions directed toward the wall because of DACA strings.
The POS POTUS is holding himself hostage to extort 5 billion from the US Treasury.
The country is sick and tired of mentally ill republicans.

What a lying cartoon!
Those eligible to be classified as DACA
1) were never (yet) abandoned
2) are not (i.e., no longer) little children (false portrayal)
3) crossed the border more than a decade ago and so are not currently a matter for the Border Patrol (on enlargement, the shoulder patch appears to read “USBP”, not “ICE”)
4) were not separated from their parents (as implied by no parents being in the cartoon) when they did enter the US; in fact, they were brought into the US by their parents

So, what is going to happen when SCOTUS rules DACA to be unconstitutional and all those permits to be illegal?
Will the Dems step up to deal? Or will they throw the kids under the bus..again?
