But will he testify to that? Saying it on CNN is fine, but I need people to say it under oath and cross examination.

Barr is right that Trump lost.

Barr is complicit in Trumps crimes. We should not be giving a voice to anything he has to say. He needs to be in jail, along with every single Trump appointee.

The way to prosecute someone in a criminal conspiracy is to get their cronies to flip on them.

    Why are we treating asylum seekers like criminals?

    They only arrested the fathers. Were the mother and child not criminals for doing the exact same thing?

    This is cruelty for its own sake. Texas isn’t supposed to be enforcing immigration law.

    Your made up narrative is very entertaining, but you have no idea what their intentions are and the asylum law makes no distinction.

    And again, it’s not up to Texas to enforce immigration law.

    And again, why only arrest the father?

    Blamemeta ,

    Its two seperate actions, applying for asylum and illegally immigrating. If they were honest people, they would have gone to an embassy or official border crossing, and applied. Instead they illegally immigrated and only after they got caught did they apply for asylum.

    Also crimes can be handled at multiple levels.

    Your assumptions are irrelevant.

    The law makes no distinction.

    Also, why would they only arrest the father if they all broke the law?

    Also, why is Texas enforcing immigration law when it’s outside of their pervue? They handed the mothers and children over to CBP, so they know the proper procedure; why should they be selectively enforcing the law here?

    Again?

    baldingpudenda ,

    Are they still looking for those kids they lost last time?

    Froyn ,

    I thought the kids were fine, Texas had just deported the parents and kept the kids.

    30mag ,

    According to the article, they aren’t deporting asylum seekers.

    Despite the criminal trespass arrests, the state legal trouble doesn’t bar these separated families from continuing their asylum process under federal law, Etter says.

    “It’s essentially a very harsh and cruel detour in the asylum process, but one that is not an obstacle because our clients have been able to request asylum and many of our clients have been released back into the country and are able to then reunite with their families at some point,” Etter said.

    Froyn ,

    I thought the "Again?" and "kids they lost last time?" were in reference to immigration under the Trump regime.
    When they were separating kids from parents, the whole "Kids in Cages" story arc.

    30mag ,

    I don’t know what they meant. The policy now is not the same as it was when Trump was in office.

    Froyn ,

    Has the current administration lost any kids?

    So just manufactured homes? Whats the difference between this and a trailer park?

    @Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world avatar

    Well for one, a solid foundation and solid walls. If you’ve never been in a trailer or a raised home thats a major difference between cheap manufactured housing and quality housing.

    JJROKCZ ,

    Trailer parks are made of twigs and paper, these are a little more sturdy

    protist ,

    The manufactured homes you’re thinking of are not made out of concrete. These houses are printed in place permanently and made out of insulated concrete

    I’ll believe him after he publicly releases the results of a full neurological workup including the raw scans so that independent physicians can evaluate.
