Dems want criminals counted equally wth all others.
Virginia squirrel alert the most obvious motive for this new demand.
Facts
- The limit on detention beds for people rounded up in the interior is not a new demand. It was part of the Democrat’s opening negotiation 10 days ago.
- It is not about “criminals counted equally” just the opposite. The point of the bed limit is to get ICE to focus on detaining criminals over non-criminal and/or non-violent offenders.
- Republicans, through ICE, have the ability to provide facts on the current 20,000 detained from the interior to make the argument that they are all criminals but for some reason have not done so.
- Trump, after having ten days to respond to this issue, is doing so now at the last minute only after it has become clear that negotiators, from both sides, are not giving him the requested wall money.
As you were.
