We can do this all day, but the question remains. Is your *president enforcing our border laws that he swore an oath to uphold?
I prefer whatever the Biden administration is doing, or attempting to do, to what the Trump Administration did, which showed how much they valued families.

The DHS inspector general
reports that “DHS estimated that Border Patrol agents separated 3,014 children from their families.” However, the IG finds hundreds more potential cases of family separation: “Without a reliable account of all family relationships, we could not validate the total number of separations, or reunifications.”

Court documents
reveal that the government has still failed to find the parents of 545 children separated from their families under the Trump administration’s policy, including 60 children who were under the age of 5 when they were separated. That number
later rises to 666 children.
An extensive timeline of the administration’s communications about family separation, including its public statements about the policy, internal discussions we uncovered through FOIA, public reporting, and agency investigations.

The Biden administration has reunited 400 children with their parents after they were separated as migrants crossing the southern border under the Trump administration, said Michelle Brané, the executive director of
the Family Reunification Task Force.
More than 5,000 families were separated under Trump’s 2018 “zero tolerance” policy and a 2017 pilot program and advocates estimate over 1,000 remain separated. Because the Trump administration did not keep records of which children were separated and where they were sent, the task force and lawyers working on behalf of separated families have had a difficult time identifying families to offer them the chance of reunification.
In the majority of recently reunited cases, Brané said, the parents were deported while the children remained in the U.S. Now, parents are given the opportunity to come to the U.S. on paid travel, bring other members of their family who are dependent on them, and live and work in the U.S. legally for three years.
