Greetings, Just thought you might like to know that one of your own flock @SpeakerRyan is wholly responsible for what is happening to refugees in this country. His cowardice and avarice are a blight upon Catholicism. Perhaps you could guide him?

You do know that he and the republicans are right now attempting to push legislation to improve the situation for both Dreamers and the families crossing at the border, right? The media just wants you outraged and to hold contempt against political enemies.

I know that there has been a Dem bill that has every single Dem on it that they have been pushing since this started that the GOP won’t get on board with. As information, I don’t watch TV so, your “the media” argument lacks merit.

Do you know what that bill actually does? If not, you might want to take a close look at it. Treating a symptom and ignoring the cause is what got us here in the first place.

Yes, do you? Essentially, it prevents separations at the border unless abuse is suspected in which case there are checks and balances in place to ensure that justice is appropriately carried out . https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/3036?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%5B%22keep+families+together+act%22%5D%7D&r=1 …

So if a crosser is in possession of drugs, is that grounds for removal? What if someone that has crossed commits a felony?

And if we say drug possession does NOT qualify for child removal, what do we do with this family while the judicial system operates? Camps?

Contrary to @WhiteHouse propaganda, not every brown person crossing the border is a criminal. No one is saying allow traffickers & criminals to stay with kids. We have had the same camps, same system for decades. The difference is this regime enjoys the screams of tiny children.

Perhaps. Would you open the doors to the Vatican for anyone? Criminals, child molesters?? Perhaps set an example and welcome all into the Vatican grounds and compromise your safety.

He has. Perhaps they could teach you to read in bot school?

I blocked & reported her.

For what?! Commenting? Although i guess you gotta seal any breach in that echo chamber of yours.

And another bot.

Keep on reporting & blocking!

Blocking for disagreeing? Childish.

Nice try. I have seen that gambit before. If you are contributing to the debate in a productive fashion, fine. If you don’t like my policy, you know where the door is.

Do any of you guys understand that the pope is being extremely disingenuous here. WHY doesn't HE bring them to the Vatican? This is purely virtue signaling for likes,

Please put the full power of your office behind the condemnation so we see action from Catholics in the US.

Where was all this outrage when it started? I’m no fan of the administration but to be fair this isn’t a new thing. It just fits an agenda. There are legal pathways for asylum seekers. Key word, legal.

It indeed is a new thing to strip children away from parents. And the zero tolerance policy enacted in April also goes for Asylum seekers. And there also is no plan to reunite the over 2500 kids taken in the last 6 weeks-because they didn’t track them. Orphans-they made orphans.

Actually not a new thing as Flores law enacted in 1997.

The way it is being enforced is new.

What % of our laws should we follow? 0 tolerance means we enforce, anything less than that gives us what we have today. Seek asylum the legal way or there are consequences. It’s that simple.

They are seeking it the legal way. And being turned away. Everything is always so much simpler when speaking of "they."

They are not. Just because you seek asylum doesn’t mean it’s valid. They can go to US embassy in their country to seek it, or Mexico. We have no idea if these are actual families, plenty of human traffickers, drug mules etc. look beyond the pictures the media now shows vs 2014.
