That's not what Flores says. It's says they must be separated from adults they aren't related to.......among many other things......including how long they could be held. You need to do more research.
Biden wants to pay illegal immigrants $450,000 each
- Thread starter YouSayPotato
- Start date
I've done my research. You are correct in what the original 1997 Flores law said. The 2016 ruling changed that. Quoting verbatim from the article that I linked above:
"But in a controversial decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, the most liberal in the country, has interpreted the settlement agreement to apply to “both minors who are accompanied and unaccompanied by their parents.”
"In other words, it is the 9th Circuit’s misinterpretation of the Clinton administration’s settlement agreement that doesn’t allow juvenile aliens to stay with their parents who have been detained for unlawful entry into the country."

As another reminder for our Dem freinds this case was during the Obama Presidency whose administration continued the seperation for ilegal immigrant kids as did Trump. They all seem to conveniently forget this.
Like I said…dumbass Democrats. Only a Democrat would be in favor of paying illegal aliens for breaking the law, when that money could be spent in education, healthcare, etc for actual US citizens.
You people amaze me.
Stop trying to bring logic into this discussion; you’re going to confuse and cause psychological trauma for bob and md.
why do you think it’s ok to break the law?
A guy selling drugs in California doesn’t impact me either, but I still hope he gets busted and does some hard time.
I don’t care one bit about victimless crimes.
Why are you so against somebody not born into as fortunate situation as you doing something to improve their life?
Your premise is bullshit. How can innocent people dying and being injured at the hands of people who shouldn’t be here in first place be acceptable? There are thousands of examples of illegals committing vehicular homicide while driving drunk, shooting innocent women in places like SF, torturing and raping a coed in Iowa, sexually assaulting a woman on a subway in Philadelphia while jackass people on the subway took out their cellphones and recorded the assault but did not try to stop it once (deplorable and selfish), MS-13 members shooting, raping, and killing hundreds of innocent people around NY and Baltimore, etc., etc.
Also, these illegals are using taxpayer dollars for housing, food, clothing, schooling, etc., etc.
GTFOH with your victimless crime nonsense.
Those are all crimes with victims you listed. Crossing the boarder is a victimless crime.
So stealing is a crime that is acceptable. I just don’t understand this mentality.
Come on, stealing from retail stores. Stealing from anyone is a crime that is acceptable to a certain percentage of the population. Are you one of them?
You’d be shocked at the number of people who think that there are just piles of money sitting around that are there to be taken and it’s of no cost to anyone…same as stealing. I sat in a meeting a few years ago where town trustee was livid that the local school had only been taxing based on need and not at the maximum allowed. The idiot actually asked what happened to all of that money. I quipped that it was still in her pocket…which caused her to act like she’d been accused of theft. So then, the over-educated moron putting on the meeting had to inform her that the comment meant that she paid less in taxes. The inmates will eventually run the asylum at the rate stupidity is growing.
I am doubting this clown understands the cost of ownership, a business, and any economic reality. If stealing is a victimless crime, then he/she/pronoun/it, should allow anyone to take anything of he/she/pronoun/its.
Biden is clueless.
Again, he doesn’t know what he had for breakfast, let alone something he said 10 days ago
Another clueless lib, lefty dem.
Any criminal can claim they’re trying to Bette their lives.
I know you’re just a clueless lefty lib, but I don’t believe you’re so stupid as to believe what you’re typing. You’re just trying to be dramatic now.
You tell us.
Provide us a few examples of when stealing is a victimless crime.
Be specific and list them.
You guys keep talking about other crimes. I’m talking about the crime of crossing the border.
I didn’t say stealing was victimless. I was wonder what people were stealing by crossing the border.
Why do you guys think I’m saying stealing is victimless? I just want to know how crossing a border is stealing.
Who is the victim when you’re Jay walking or speeding? Breaking a law is breaking a law.
Stealing the right to live in the US. Stealing the right to receive benefits when you're not a US citizen paying into the system that provides those benefits. Stealing resources like healthcare, education, welfare.
Wait a second.....are you for open borders?
It leads to stealing. Stealing of resources among other things. Are you just about done playing dumb with these questions? I’ll give you credit, you’ve done well to keep that schtick going this long.
It leads to stealing? Anymore than anybody else being alive leads to stealing?
It took me about 30 seconds to google? All kinds of studies out there?…you can even find one that claims the theft of resources is only a few billion dollars?…and that was from a group that doesn’t believe it’s stealing either?
You’re just being either very obtuse or you’re very naive. If these illegals weren’t breaking the law to come here, then these other crimes wouldn’t have happened or be happening. When people get raped, shot, assaulted they are victims by definition. When illegals commit these kinds of crimes it’s doubly bad - they shouldn’t be here in the first place.
Instead of breaking the law to come here why can’t they follow the LEGAL immigration system? They should be vetted before becoming citizens, green card holders, or US persons. Instead morons in the Biden administration welcome them with open arms and use taxpayer money to move them around the country, feed them, clothe them, tend to medical conditions, house them, educate them and their children……Every actual citizen is a victim of this appropriation of tax dollars for the Ds’ cynical, perverse purposes.
Crossing the border to leach on American tax payers is stealing. Do you pay taxes?
I think you're behind in the news cycle.
ACLU busts Biden's narrative on payments to illegals
The American Civil Liberties Union countered President Biden's claim that his administration is not considering payments of up to $450,000 to illegal immigrants who had been separated from their families under the previous administration.
The studies I’ve seen shows that immigrants are net contributors. Kinda how we built this country.
Well....I'd have to consider the source of your information.
You probably think Republicans are racists because that's what they told you on MSNBC?
Don’t watch cable news.
Over the long run they are a net positive to the country as a whole though may be a short term negative to local and state gov. Maybe the fed does something to make up for this or maybe they should.
Also, why would adding people contributing to the economy be a net negative?
NO ONE IS AGAINST IMMIGRATION, THEY'RE AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION!
This is the simple nuance that lefties and libs fail to grasp.
You want to come to this country and become a citizen? Great! There's a process you have to go through. It's a right, not a privilege and yes, it takes work. Do it the right, LEGAL way, and we'll welcome you as one of our own and will gladly stand next to you during the Pledge of Allegiance.
Our nanny from Guatemala did it and she hates illegal immigrants.
