1/ I truly appreciate the non-political folks calling for a #DACA deal as a route out of the shutdown. It’s VITAL to understand that this admin actually wants that cover in a public convo to mask what they’re actually pushing which is gutting asylum & putting migrant kids in jail

The Pres ended DACA in Sep of 2017, he did it in a passive way cuz DACA is remarkably successful & popular. And then hid behind injunctions of multiple circuit courts that kept some pieces of the program in tact. But in reality his DOJ tried to hop over that in the 5th circuit 2/
