The Federal Case That Can Stop Trump's Immigration Plan In Its Tracks
MSNBC’s Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber reports on The Flores Agreement, a decades-old court settlement that is now more important than ever. The case controls how immigrant minors are treated in detention — and is central to Trump’s family separation crisis. In this special report, Melber examines how Trump’s immigration agenda is thwarted by this Clinton-era case, how Trump actually echoes Obama on the immigration ruling but differs on protecting human rights, and what Congress can do to reform the entire system. Aired on 09/19/19.

Trump 2020
Get these 3rd world parasites out of here. Trump 2020!
Vote Trump 2020
The flores agreement was only ment to be a short term solution. Time to stop all asylum claims and immediately deport every single illegal invader.
STUPID IGNORANT MORON DRUMPF
America is sooooo low on the moral ladder. If they can get Trump out of the WH it still will take years to recover from this nightmare!
The Walls coming along rapidly 500 new beautiful miles it will be completed by 2024 ! #MAGA
Fake News…Trump 20202
Tremendous reporting, even for someone in Australia to know about.
Boy watching trump and Obama side by side speaking, makes trump look brain dead.
Trump's treatment of immigrant children isn't 'controversial' – it's simply evil.
Hey Ari, The Assoc. Press reported a New York judge ordered tRump to give a video taped deposition in a lawsuit filed by protesters who claim they were roughed up outside tRump Tower in 2015. FYI.
Trump shut off aid to Central American countries? But he's spending billions on immigrant jails? This is upside down.
THE MOST IGNORANCE GENIUS OF MY LIFE TIME I WONDER CAN HE PLAY CHESS ? WOW WOE HE CAN'T EVEN CLOSE A UMBRELLA BUT THEY ELECTED THAT GUY WHY
I love listening to calm, rational, non-Trumpian speeches.
I can't wait until Trump becomes a detainee!
Right here in NY state!
A banner will be draped across the same Brooklyn Bridge, George Washington
Bridge and other bridges that he has sold hand over fist to his clueless supporters.
And that banner will read:
"Welcome Back Individual One!!!"
There are millions of Americans who hold jobs vital to the functioning of government, who are seeing the writing on the wall: that they could become enslaved into doing the govt's bidding, because the govt knows they would never voluntarily do so.
During WWII, there was a huge "brain drain" from Germany into the democratic nations, mostly America. It's where we got rocket experts and Einstein, among many others, and the brain drain left Germany bereft of expertise it needed to prevail in the war. It was a vital part that enabled us to conquer the Nazis.
We are swiftly moving toward another brain drain – this time, of Americans fleeing to other democracies in order to avoid being forced to give their expertise to tyrants.
Some of the brain drain is already happening, but it won't be long before it becomes a flood.
From a coldly realistic viewpoint, it is already known that American democracy is sinking fast, and that little is being done to stop it, so it WILL prevail. They don't want to serve that govt. From another democracy, they can fight against that tyranny and also help the country they move to to gain their valuable expertise to defend themselves AGAINST the tyrannical U.S.
Watch for it. The brain drain will inevitably increase visibly. America will be bereft of what it needs most, and the bottom common denominator will lose its support rapidly. Only the worst bottom dwellers will remain, and they're all clueless about running a country. America will descend into the pits.
Trump research nothing to make intelligent decisions. He comes off at you through a voice in his head, in a spontaneous way, it doesn't matter if it negative or positive. He doesn't take under consideration if it's factual or not. He believes what he hears, not what he knows for a fact. That along make him dangerous for the United States of America. God bless the United States of America and the American People!!
@AM
Congress obviously needs to get involved to end the stalemate.
Thousands of people are and have been waiting patiently to come to the US in compliance with our Immigration laws.
There must be intelligent ways to handle the situation.
Too bad Congress has no cojones. So, we need single term limits and some other reforms for all of our politicians so they aren't more interested in their jobs than handling controversial issues.
Whom do we want to invite? Those who flout/break our laws or those who comply with them?
It's obviously a sticky wicket that needs some unbiased thinking.
2020 is Coming!!!
