@Ranger1PresentsVirtualRealms They kept the children and deported the parents. This is really sick.
"The lawsuit later revealed that the Trump administration had secretly begun separating families in the fall of 2017, under a pilot program implemented in the El Paso area, before the zero-tolerance policy was officially announced.
The pilot program showed that the Trump administration lacked the ability to track children and parents separated at the border, yet the Trump administration chose to expand the program borderwide in 2018 despite knowing that hundreds of children likely would be lost to their families, according to a House Judiciary Committee report released in October.
"There was never this intention to actually record these families in a way that would facilitate reunification," said Leah Chavla, senior policy adviser in the migrant rights and justice program at the Women's Refugee Commission, one of the nonprofit groups involved with locating missing parents.
In all, more than 5,000 families have been separated, Gelernt said during a Dec. 4 panel discussion hosted by Physicians for Human Rights. That number includes 1,100 to 1,200 families who were separated after a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to stop, Gelernt said."
