President Donald Trump reversed himself on Wednesday and signed an executive order that he said would end family separations at the U.S.-Mexico border – by instead sending parents and children together to family detention centers.
Trump’s order is likely to set up a legal challenge from advocates who will say it runs afoul of the 1997 Flores v. Reno settlement, which requires immigration officials to “place each detained minor in the least restrictive setting appropriate.”
Flores v. Reno also requires officials to release immigrants under 18 “without unnecessary delay,” meaning if they were not going to be prosecuted — and they had a family member to stay with — they could not be kept in a detention facility with their parents for long periods of time.
Trump acknowledged a possible legal show-down when he said during his announcement in the Oval Office, “There may be some litigation.”

They practice daily, so just send them on longer training runs. This keeps the kids with their family, does not break the rules in place and they get a free ride home.

"longer training runs" "free ride home" you're cute. Enjoy your day
Trump knows how to play chess. This EO, while it does address a real issue and provides an immediate answer, stole the thunder from the liberal's hopeful point of contention. Additionally, as Trump is presenting his EO he remarks of a "possible legal show-down" almost certainly giving notice that if there's to be any legal action taken the liberals will own it Touche Mr. President
