Stay tuned: Trump Just Signed Something About Children Being Separated From Families, But It's Unclear What Exactly It Is buzzfeed.com/zoetillman/tru…
Trump didn't share any details about the executive order he just signed: "So we're going to have strong, very strong borders, but we're going to keep the families together. I didn't like the sight or the feeling of families being separated."

UPDATE: Here is the text of what Trump just signed, more to come shortly whitehouse.gov/presidential-a… Story: buzzfeed.com/zoetillman/tru…
The order just signed by Trump directs DHS to maintain custody over immigrant families while criminal and immigration proceedings are pending, and it directs AG Sessions to ask the Flores judge to modify the settlement to allow family detentions buzzfeed.com/zoetillman/tru…
What's not immediately clear is what exactly can happen until a judge agrees to changes the Flores settlement, which says children cannot be held indefinitely in secure detention facilities buzzfeed.com/zoetillman/tru…
The order directs the Defense Secretary and other agencies to make available to DHS facilities that could be used to house families together (and says DoD can build more if needed) buzzfeed.com/zoetillman/tru…
