#TBT to the 7th Annual Festival at the Switchyard in 2016 when @barenakedladies rocked the stage in Historic Downtown Carrollton. Festival veterans, who has been your favorite headliner to date? We can't wait to share this year's headliner with you in August! #CarrolltonFestival
In short:
Trump’s Executive Order is a set up.
It’s designed to make him appear beneficent (to change HIS policy he could literally change with a phone call) while simultaneously picking a fight with the judicial branch.
He is setting up a win-win for himself.
1/2
Quick analysis of Executive Order:
1. The plan is to keep families detained indefinitely together, which is illegal
2. Trump would like the courts or Congress to make that not illegal
3. If Congress or the judiciary doesn't change the law, families will continue to be split up
This section of Trump’s immigration EO is the point of the entire EO exercise.
He is challenging a law that LIMITS DETENTION TIME for CHILDREN.
He is picking a fight with the judiciary branch.
The judiciary is one of the FEW constraints on his power.

Today Kirstjen Nielsen drafted executive action to end the policy of family separation that she said did not exist less than a week ago.
The Trump administration is gaslighting America. Period. https://t.co/Nc6RSZjrAj
Michael Fulmer follows the back-to-back homers with a walk to Jesse Winker.
He was one pitch from escaping the 6th with his shutout intact. Now his day is done.
Alex Wilson in for Tigers.
