Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

What due process do you expect for a baby? 10 years of lawyers going back and forth?
THE SAME AS FOR EVERYONE IN THE LEGAL SYSTEM YOU ASS
If they’re in court, they deserve, and are required by law, to have proper representation!
I agree that if they're found to be here illegally, they should be given the choice of whether their American children should remain with them when they're deported.
I think this should only occur after they receive due process.
The way to avoid delays in judgment is not to do away with due process. That's trying to cure the disease (dysfunction) by treating the symptoms.
The way to solve it is by dramatically increasing the number of immigration judges to help reach resolutions quickly. Thousands more. That's a constructive change, not a destructive change. One is long-lasting; one only lasts as long as this administration. Both parties have failed at dramatically expanding the immigration courts like they should have, because this is a political issue they can campaign on.
But constructive changes are still the right way to improve the system.
God Republicans are dumber than a box of rocks.
Yes the toddlers get due process with a lawyer representing their case IN COURT. It's not hard to understand, a fourth grader could understand this concept.
Which btw have you read over your own posted source on immigration and how unlawful presence is a civil infraction and not a criminal one? Or do you still not understand your own citation?
