[/FONT]President Donald Trump (pictured top on Saturday after meeting with Hurricane Harvey victims) has decided to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, sources have confirmed. Two sources close to the president told Politico on Sunday that he made his decision after an afternoon meeting with his aides. DACA is an Obama-era initiative that grants work permits to more than 800,000 undocumented immigrants who were brought to the country by family members as children. There will reportedly be a six month delay before the repeal is enforced. The official announcement regarding the decision is expected to come Tuesday.

President Donald Trump has decided to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, sources have confirmed.
Two sources close to the president told Politico on Sunday that he made his decision after an afternoon meeting with his aides.
DACA is an Obama-era initiative that grants work permits to more than 800,000 undocumented immigrants who were brought to the country by family members as children.
Ending it is likely to spark fury towards the White House on either side of the aisle, and Trump and his aides worked through the afternoon to decide how to best announce the controversial decision to avoid this, sources explained.
The official announcement regarding the decision is expected to come Tuesday.

DACA is an Obama-era initiative that grants work permits to more than 800,000 undocumented immigrants who were brought to the country by family members as children. Above people gather in support of the program in Los Angeles on Friday

The White House has been making up its mind on whether or not to get rid of the program since the inauguration.
Trump had railed against the Obama program during the presidential campaign, slamming it as an illegal 'amnesty' that he would immediately end.
Though ending DACA was one of his campaign promises, there were moments it looked like he would not address the program because of its popularity.
On Friday he suggested he might not end the program, saying: 'We love the Dreamers. We love everybody.'
Multiple members of Trump's party warned him not to scrap it.

In fact, some congressional GOP lawmakers spent Inauguration Day urgently trying to reach senior White House officials about the matter after hearing rumors that Trump could roll back the deportation protections as one of his first moves.
During a radio interview Friday House Speaker Paul Ryan said he does not think Trump should end DACA, and that Congress should step in to keep him from doing so.
'These are kids who know no other country, who are brought here by their parents and don't know another home. And so I really do believe that there needs to be a legislative solution,' Ryan told Wisconsin radio station WCLO.

Neither the White House or Ryan responded to Politico's request for comment.
Two sources told Politico that Attorney General Jeff Sessions played a large role in writing the new immigration law and helped to persuade Trump to terminate the program.
In an attempt to assuage anyone upset by the decision, Trump will delay the enforcement of the new immigration decision and deportation of immigrant children by six months.

Though Trump's announcement on Tuesday will anger millions of Americans, it will also shore up his supporters, who rallied behind his campaign message of strengthening the border. Pictured activists hold a sign in New York during a rally to support DACA on Wednesday

That window, a White House official explained, would give Congress some time to act.
However, another senior White House aide said that John Kelley, Trump's chief of staff who has worked closely with the president on the decision, 'thinks Congress should've gotten its act together a lot longer ago.'
Though Trump's announcement on Tuesday will anger millions of Americans, it will also shore up his supporters, who rallied behind his campaign message of strengthening the border.
On Friday afternoon the White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said: 'I think that this isn't a decision that the president takes lightly and he's taking time and diligent effort to make sure that he goes through every bit of the process.
'I think the decision itself is weighing on him, certainly.'

I have as much compassion for these people as their parents had for our immigration laws.

Really? Wasn't the kids fault. Feel badly for them. Thus will be one nail in the coffin for Trump being a 1 termer if he makes it that long

Good answer....!

This is the right call.

The Stuttering Clusterfuck invented a law on his own, and Trump just undid it.

Good. How's that whole "pen and phone" thing taste now, dims? The POTUS doesn't create laws, that's the job of Congress. If they want to uphold this dreamer crap, they've now got six months to do it.

Btw, can someone tell me where else the whole "we just can't break up the family" argument is ever used as a defense for a crime? "Well, yes, your honor...my client did in fact rob the bank in question at gunpoint. But we can't send him to jail because that would break him apart from his children."

 

[Willie99]

But he's not really kicking out anybody, he's just eliminating an executive order

He wants a permanent solution, he's telling congress to come up with legislation and stop kicking the can down the road

We need a permanent solution, we need a path to citizenship or legalization, but I'm opposed to any of that happening until the borders are secured



It's time for politicians to actually work for a change and stop lying. Of course the criminal, colluding, corrupt, lying democratic media will never tell the people the whole truth

SO WE CANT PUNISH PEOPLE IF THEY HAVE KIDS, EVEN THO THEY KNOWINGLY WENT OUT OF THEIR WAY TO BREAK THE LAWS.

btw: DONT BE MAD AT PEOPLE WHO ENFORCE THE LAWS... BE MAD AT THE PARENTS WHO PUT THEM IN THIS POSITION BY PURPOSELY BREAKING THE LAWS.

People shouldn't be punished because of what their parent's did. If you murder someone the law doesn't come to place your kids in jail. Now if he undid this law not to deport these people to a foreign place for them but to implement a way for these people to become legal then that's great

I'll take it

Our?

 

[SgtLanquel]

Will be more pertinent discussion in six months when the repeal actually kicks in.

Possible at that point or before that President Pence just prudently dumps the whole notion

Aren't liberals such genuine wonderful compassionate people!

Send them to BP's home - problem solved.

Oh come on every fucking American who has children is spending other people's money. Maybe they should pass a bill about that? Why should I pay more in taxes because you have children? Fuck that. So yeah I get screwed everyday by almost every American here so I'm not worried about these 800,000 people

And I referenced this exact point above.

If I decided to murder someone, should I be exempt from going to jail because it would tear me apart from my kids?

Good job by Mr Trump long overdue, damn what a crap Obama started, and this was not legal by obama to start with
