It seems that inside the Trump government?
There is problems with how to handle the directive , if it is even legal….
Several agencies are simply NOT following parts of it….
The whole thing has actually gotten worst because of Trump’s lack of management style, which leaves agency heads and their people on their own…
Trump has never trusted of accepted the way large organizations work…
The order Trump signed this week, hastily written amid an escalating crisis and rushed to his desk before he left town for a political rally, was the opposite. While it stanched the flow of negative media coverage, beginning the process of reuniting children and parents, the vaguely worded immigration order created a new set of problems for the administration.
At agencies from the Department of Homeland Security to the Department of Justice and the Department of Defense, which has been asked to help house illegal immigrants and their children, officials say they remain uncertain how to carry out an order they aren’t sure is legal in the first place.
Those concerns boiled over on Thursday afternoon in a contentious Principals Committee meeting chaired by White House chief of staff John Kelly. Inside the White House Situation Room, senior administration officials grappled with basic questions raised by the directive. Where should immigrant families be housed as parents await criminal prosecution? Can you keep families together, when the parents are technically in custody, and the children are not? Should the administration create new facilities to accommodate them? Would the courts intervene to prevent them from acting at all? It was an exercise in policymaking on the fly.
