Trump moves to cancel illegal immigrant family loophole
By Dave Boyer and Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Tuesday, August 20, 2019
President Trump will move Wednesday to cancel the family “loophole†that’s allowed illegal-immigrant parents and children to pour into the U.S., proposing new rules that would replace the 2015 Flores Settlement court order that created a de facto catch-and-release policy for the families.
According to details provided by an administration official, migrant families could be held in detention together while their cases are heard by immigration judges. That would supersede the 20-day limit imposed by the federal judge in Flores.
If the families can be held in detention, they can be deported, security experts say, and once people in Central America see an increase in deportations, they’ll stop coming.

Good move!
We all know this goes to court. Why not try and get rid of the original agreement. If Trump wins it really slows down illegal immigration and if he loses the public gets more outraged at the systematic destruction of the USA sponsored by the Rats.

Good move!
Yes, it is. Albeit that it will fail. There is not enough infrastructure to incarcerate that many people.
Would that 'catch and release' simply released them on the other side of the Rio Grande.
