Being a minor, doesn't the parent have to be there for the discussion also?This is beyond ridiculous. Exactly what is a 4 year old going to discuss with a lawyer?
Did the kid *ask* for a lawyer ?This is beyond ridiculous. Exactly what is a 4 year old going to discuss with a lawyer?
Agreed 100%. The "due process" needs to be nothing more than positive identification of the individual, and that they are here illegally. Done and gone. Definitely cant have every case winding through the courts for years.Due process, certainly.
But the process that is due for a illegal to be deported is drastically different than the process to imprison a criminal citizen.
You don't get a trial before deportation. Never have.
Kid wasn't charged with a crime, so no lawyer necessary.Did the kid *ask* for a lawyer ?
Even in a criminal case it's not automatic, you do need to ask.
I find it implausible that a 4 year old asked for a lawyer and was denied anyway.
Think of it this way.Agreed 100%. The "due process" needs to be nothing more than positive identification of the individual, and that they are here illegally. Done and gone. Definitely cant have every case winding through the courts for years.
Exactly. And these kids weren't here illegally because they are US citizens....Agreed 100%.

Perhaps I'm wrong (it was a long time ago in a High School classroom where I was more interested in the girl beside me than the subject) but we were told as Minors, that we really did not have "Rights" and when you look in the proper context, the Teacher was correct, and why your Parents/Guardians were responsible for your actions.Did the kid *ask* for a lawyer ?

But their mother, or legal guardian was here illegally. As minors we have no authority to take them from the mother to keep them here as citizens, they cannot make any decision about staying or going until they are of age. So they stay with the mother. What dont you understand about that? What legal authority gives us the right to keep them here? Better you should lay off the libtard kool aid.Exactly. And these kids weren't here illegally because they are US citizens....
This ^^^because w couldn’t like it twice.The kid wasn't deported. His mother was deported and the kid stayed with her.
And if they'd made the kid a ward of the state so that he could stay, then people would be up in arms about them being separated.
Presumably the kid *could* have stayed, if that's what the family wanted. But the mom was going with or without him.
All of this bullshit is just "orange man bad" TDS.
The process that they are due hasnt changed. Biden didn't want to deport many, but the ones he did got the same process Trump is using.
The same process Obama used before him, and Bush and Clinton before that.
Then the kids are free to return any time.Exactly. And these kids weren't here illegally because they are US citizens....
Then the kids are free to return any time.
Provided they come in with an adult who is entering legally.
The mother needs to go either way. She's not a citizen. A US citizen who has committed no crimes has a right to be here. If she chooses to take the child with her, that should be her choice. If she chooses not to then we move on to other routes, that doesn't mean we deport a legal US citizen.What would *you* suggest should have happened ?
What would the kids lawyer even request ? It's not like you can just release the kid to his own devices while the parents get sent back.
And we absolutely *can't* allow the "anchor baby" to remain in effect. Mom doesn't have a "get out of deportation free" card just because she dropped some crotch fruit on this side of the border.
You're not wrong, but i don't know why you think they weren't offered that choice.The constitution differs. All US citizens have a right to remain in the country, barring extradition for a crime, even then it goes through courts. Your parent not being a US citizen isn't YOUR crime, and no citizen is responsible for others crimes, just your own.

Whay do we do with them? The same thing we do for other US citizen minors who no longer have guardians (say both parents die in a car crash or similar). Namely a new guardian must be appointed, either by court order or through existing legal arrangements. If there is no established legal framework, the court will appoint a suitable relative or, if necessary, place the child in foster care.
If JoAnna St. Germain is not arrested this week, I may lose all hope.
A Wisconsin man lost his bid before a federal appeals court to set aside his 3-year prison sentence for threatening to kill then-President Barack Obama. The threats first appeared on Facebook, and were then made verbally to anybody who would listen, including to Secret Service agents.

How is this any different ?
BTW, are we talking BIOLOGICAL woman here? Or is this more violence from a Transgender.
The Chinese have been doing it for years, maybe even decades...they have a whole industry of tourism for pregnant women to come to America just before they pop...bastardization and misrepresentation of the facts of the Law have allowed this to become standard practice.Then the kids are free to return any time.
