Yeah, this is the part where the Nazis were rounding up the gypsies. That's where we are right now.

Why are they spending time in a courtroom when they could be in the mines?
Oh just fuck off with that DEI shit. I am so sick of being put down because I’m a white man in America. Just one more job i wouldn't do being taken away from me by illegals.
I volunteered at a soup kitchen once and the place was filled with able body white libs who are too lazy to work. Send them to the mines first.
I mean, I assume that’s who was there taking the handouts. I couldn’t actually show up that day. But I did volunteer and least.
Point is, there are plenty of Americans that should be forced to work in the mines first.
*just as an aside, I’m trying my hand at being maga. Wanted to practice some first, not sure this comment is angry or stupid enough. Any pointers appreciated.
It's good but you forgot to capitalise the buzzwords: "If any LIBERALS really want HANDOUTS, maybe they can try their hands out in the MINES!" Then throw in a laughing emoji after saying something totally dangerous: "Honestly if you have democrat parents you should have to pay more for school 😂"
Jesus Christ, this is awful
This has been going on for many years.
If that's true, let's be glad it's getting attention now.
It was getting attention in 2018 too. John Oliver even did an episode about it. People just don’t care as long as it isn’t them.
I keep caring harder and harder but that just makes me more anxious.
Also, am Canadian so it’s not like I can do anything about it.
It's still awful, jesus
That makes it so much worse.
I feel like trump poured gas all over the dumpster fire
Yes, but more specifically, he cancelled the fire department too.
Right in the article it mentions smaller percentages of in represented kids before now, but Trump cancelled the 200 million in funding to cover legal costs.
While allowing any unrepresented kids to be deported is bad, it’s now twice as bad as before.
Kraft said that before the contract was terminated, she saw 30% to 40% of children in a given docket without lawyers. Now, she said, the number has increased to 50% to 60%.
Why are we not burning the white house down or dismantling any ICE facilities? 😬
burning the white house down
Hey. That's our thing.
Found the Brit!
Could be Canadian, eh?
Technically it was the British who burned the White House, but it was done in retaliation for an attack on British Canada.
I feel like that’s pedantic in a similar way to saying technically it wasn’t Americans who declared independence
Wait I think you just accidentally agreed with me. If the British declared independence from Britain in order to become Americans, then it was British troops who attacked D.C. those troops were just stationed in Canada when the attack took place.
Too busy with protesting Tesla. 🙄
Because if you do you will probably be killed or sent to El Salvador. Unless most people are doing it, nobody wants to take that risk.
I'm just going to point out that Trump has declared that the official language of the United States is English, so I'm sure he's going to put in another executive order saying there shouldn't be any translators made available.
Ballsy move kids, but will be a big blow to the lawyering industry if they win.
This isn't oniony. It's just sad.
they did this in his first term. this is part of why he was elected. racists vote.
Judge: I will help you since you have no lawyer.
4 year old girl: No habla Engles
following translated:
Judge: Where were you born?
girl: I don't remember. I was too young.
Judge: If you show me a US birth certificate or SS ID card, I can help you not be deported.
girl: uhhh... what? what is words?
SS ID card
This invokes some unpleasant aSSociations.

The dystopia isn't even boring anymore.
Actual orphan crushing machine.
It is from the old FBI/NSA Playbook. Put them in "court" but then make sure they have no representation as that would get in the way of the ruling.
RebMasel did a YT podcast on just this topic. It's as horrific as it sounds.
I feel crazy when I read these kinds of articles over the past few months, because I'll have a flash back to a few years ago where the exact same shit went down. And here they go again, this time cranked to 11. The show Orange is The New Black dedicated a whole subplot in their final season back in 2019 on how ICE was operating and what they were pulling. Immigration raids disguised as police raids, the indefinite detention of nonviolent migrants, inhumane conditions in holding, insufficient medical care/attention, etc.
One scene later in the season depicts the article above exactly, a group of children being put before a judge that they couldn't understand for many reasons; lack of representation, the language barrier, or because the kid is all of 2 years old.
No right to a lawyer, no right to a jury of their peers
12 angry... babies?
Ohh man, now I want a full courtroom drama that only stars babies, like the movie Baby Geniuses, but they're highly skilled lawyers.
Like it's a serious courtroom movie, the babies a voiced like it's a serious movie and the whole world is scaled to their size.
Human beings in positions of power need to die for the acts that will be committed under this fascist regime. Every person contributing to this happening has a name and an address.
