Kelly Warns Lawmakers DACA Might Not Be Around For Much Longer

[IAMX 3,055]

A potential lawsuit from Republican state attorneys general might force the Trump administration to enact a campaign trail promise.

 

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and Republican attorneys general in nine other states sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions that said that they will sue the federal government if it does not begin to phase out the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

The DACA program, which was started by former President Obama, protects around 790,000 illegal immigrants who arrived in the U.S. as minors. Secretary of Homeland Security John Kelly told members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Wednesday that he can’t assure them that the administration would prevail over this legal challenge.

DHS spokesman David Lapan told The Washington Post, “This is what he’s being told by different attorneys, that if it goes to court it might not survive.”

Hope the states win and get DACA eliminated. 

 

Since I've personally found Trump's DACA campaign promise to be a big deal, it would damage the already small odds that I'd vote for Trump in 2020. If he was smart he'd preempt the courts and do the EO like he's been able to do since Day 1.

Too bad, like so many other things Trump said on the campaign trail, he also promised to protect those covered under DACA. It's difficult when liers get going, to keep things straight. The BS'er in chief definitely has a problem here.

Wait weren't you or one your Anti-Trump minions on here just last month pounding him for saying that he wasn't worried about DACA at all? He(Trump) is not doing anything at all about DACA it's the state attorneys that are filing a lawsuit against it. So what can he do?

What EO could he do though for DACA? Note: I am all for DACA IF it is done correctly.

I don't have a blanket negative opinion of anyone and everyone in the US illegally. I have a blanket negative opinion in regards to Donald Trump pretty much holding whatever opinion manages to make it out of his lying pie hole at any given moment, apparently based on his perception of what his audience wants to hear, regardless of how contradictory of past positions and statements he has previously made the newest one is.

DACA doesn't bother me and I have a feeling it'll be used as a bargaining chip with the wall.

Trump went on to say that the wall needs one thing: transparency. “You have to be able to see through it,” he explained. “In other words, if you can’t see through that wall—so it could be a steel wall with openings, but you have to have openings because you have to see what’s on the other side of the wall.”

The wall needs to be see-through, the president continued, because drug dealers may otherwise throw large bags of drugs over the wall to the other side, and hit innocent passers-by. “As horrible as it sounds, when they throw the large sacks of drugs over, and if you have people on the other side of the wall, you don’t see them—they hit you on the head with 60 pounds of stuff? It’s over,” he added. “As crazy as that sounds, you need transparency through that wall. But we have some incredible designs.”
