I asked you to back up your claim about Obama's policy. I didn't ask about Trump's policy.In recent years, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and DHS have taken a variety of actions to increase enforcement of immigration laws. (See Exhibit 1.) On April 11, 2017, the Attorney General issued a memorandum instructing Federal prosecutors to prioritize prosecution of certain immigration offenses. 7 From July through November 2017, the El Paso sector of Customs and Border Protection (CBP), an agency within DHS, implemented new policies that resulted in 281 individuals in families being separated. 8 On April 6, 2018, the Attorney General formally instituted a āzero-tolerance policyā for offenses under 8 U.S.C. Ā§ 1325(a), which addresses attempts by an individual who is not a U.S. citizen to enter the country at an improper time or place. 9 The Attorney General described this policy in a May public speech, announcing that DHS was now referring all adults making illegal Southwest Border crossings to DOJ for prosecution and that DOJ would accept those cases.10 Under these policies, when a child and parent were apprehended together by immigration authorities, DHS separated the family, with the parent being placed in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service within DOJ to await prosecution for immigration offenses. With the detained parent unavailable to care for his or her child, the child was treated as a UAC and transferred to ORR.Feel free to link us up to that "policy" of only separating kids from parents with serious criminal histories.Yes he did.So Barry DID have a policy of separating kids from parents.I don't know and I'm guessing nobody else does either anymore. Per the Obama policy, they would fall in one of two categories. Or they where unaccompanied minors. Or their parents have serious criminal offenses to their names.That's odd because photos from 2014 show kids only in cages. Where is the rest of their family?I looked at it a hell of a lot closer than you did. I checked the link you provided. I checked the link provided in your article. And I checked the actual fact check by AP. AP FACT CHECK: Michelle Obama and the kids in 'cages'Most of the major networks ran the story, all citing how Michele lied her ass off / misled the American people, just like her hubby did for 8 years. Thank you for your OPINION on the Fact Checking of Michele's bs. You, of course, did not look at any of them, it seems, because you don't want to be reminded of the truth. Poor snowflake....I'm always interested in facts, so I decided to click your link. Weirdly enough I didn't end up in an actual fact check by AP, but rather an opinion piece by someone on Fox news. Me still being interested in facts decided to click the link provided by the article. Again weirdly enough that link didn't lead me to AP either. Instead I ended up in an article by the Seatle Times. So I decided to read that article. Again weirdly enough the article contained a paragraph that the Fox News contributer ommited. Namely that although Obama did use those cages to on occasion separate children from their families but that it was only in high risk situations and not a general policy as under Trump.The Associated Press fact-checked Michelle Obama's Democratic National Convention speech after she condemned Trump for using "cages" to house migrant children at the U.S.-Mexico border while failing to note that the same facilities were used during her husband's administration.
āSheās right that Trumpās now-suspended policy at the U.S.-Mexico border separated thousands of children from their families in ways that had not been done before but what she did not say is that the very same ācagesā were built and used in her husbandās administration, for the same purpose of holding migrant kids..."
The former first lady said Americans āwatch in horror as children are torn from their families and thrown into cages"...but fails to mention Democrats had no problem with her husband's administration throwing kids into cages...before the Trump administration ever thought about doing so.
āTrump used facilities that were built during the Obama-Biden administration to house children at the border."
The AP then noted that photos famously circulated by Democrats āat the height of the controversy over Trumpās zero-tolerance policy at the borderā were famously taken āin 2014 and depicted some of the thousands of unaccompanied children held by President Barack Obama.ā

"I'm Michelle Obama, and the AP just proved that I am a lying shit bag who can' tbe trusted as far as you can throw my big ass....but the sheep / snowflakes will still believe it and defend me...just watch......"
So my fact check of your article citing a fact check by AP shows me you've been duped.
Try again some other time.
I find it hilarious that you are attempting to claim that Barry and Biden did NOT put kids in cages, that the cells used by the Trump administration were NOT used by Barry and Joe 1st, something that has been undeniably proven already - it's not even a question.
Bwuhahahaha....
The former first lady was correct, however, in addressing the removal of children from parents at the border.
The Obama administration separated migrant children from families under certain limited circumstances, like when the childās safety appeared at risk or when the parent had a serious criminal history.
But family separations as a matter of routine came about because of Trumpās āzero toleranceā enforcement policy, which he eventually suspended because of the uproar. Obama had no such policy.
The Obama administration separated migrant children from families under certain limited circumstances, like when the childās safety appeared at risk or when the parent had a serious criminal history.
If you don't see the difference between a policy designed to protect children from harm and just separating a child from its parents as a matter of course. There is nothing I can say to help you understand.
Note the use of the term new policy. Feel free to post a link proving that Obama held children that didn't fall under the categories I described.
