Classic Cloward-Piven. The national divorce is about 20 years overdue.

“Groups: Immigrant minors lack legal representation”

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

There is nothing to represent. They are foreign nationals that illegally crossed an international border, and that means they go home.

You had to know that lawyers were somehow going to make a killing off of this disaster.

This is a major payoff to lawyers, a major Obama crony group

Wherever there is government crime and crooked politicians the lawyers will be swooping in for their share of the loot.

Would they not need to have rights to begin with? They are foreign invaders. Catch them and deport them. PERIOD...

They don’t need legal representation. They need bus tickets.

That may be just the ticket. Expel them onto the embassy property of their respective countries. Jam them tight. Make their country of origin deal with their own citizens. That skirts the problem of the "adjacent country" border. The embassy property is treated as foreign soil.

So, by admitting these “immigrants” need lawyers, we’re really admitting they ARE illegal aliens? If they were legal, they would not need lawyers, would they?

46% have disappeared, skipping out of court appearances and thus have no need for a lawyer.

Immigrant minors lack legal representation

They are children of foreign nationals, entitled to NOTHING.

………. The article in the constitution of the United States, declaring that citizens of each state were entitled to all the privileges and immunities of citizens in the several states, applies only to natural born or duly naturalized citizens, ........
