(e) The Attorney General shall promptly file a request with the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California to modify the Settlement Agreement in Flores v. Sessions, CV 85-4544 (“Flores settlement”), in a manner that would permit the Secretary, under present resource constraints, to detain alien families together throughout the pendency of criminal proceedings for improper entry or any removal or other immigration proceedings.

Exactly why “not this” is a bad answer.

Because the only alternative to inhuman behavior that an entire party’s worth of ruling figures can bring themselves to entertain continues to reduce legal immigration while locking up every child at the border until such time that their parents can be punished for not following the legal path that is being actively constrained, however long that takes??

Yeah, it’s probably everyone else’s fault for not organizing and proposing a solution that those people whose entire purpose is to effectively govern could sell to their “all immigrants are ms-13” base.
