Let the govenments of the countries of which they are citizens foot the bill for any needed legal aid.

Sure, why not. Just reach a little deeper into the pockets of taxpayers. There might be a few nickels left in there.

Every practicing lawyer is a sworn officer of the court, and should know that the US justice system does not dispense justice to litigants w/ "unclean hands"---a legal term meaning those who have committed crimes.

Every lawyer who is a party to this perversion of justice should have his/her license to practice law pulled....and be recommended to state bar associations for disbarment.

===============================================

In every court of law, lying to a judge is an admission of guilt.

"Cheat Sheets" have been found at the border, indicating illegals were coached to give false info to US got officials.

==============================================

Border crimes include (1) falsifying official documents, (2) giving false info to US authorities, (3) stealing SS nos, (4) faking multiple identities, (5) receiving govt monies under false pretenses, (6)falsifying tax returns to get EITC refunds, (7) money-laundering via remittanced to homelands, (8) colluding w/ criminal drug cartels to violate US border, (9) aiding and abetting by carrying drugs into the US.

So California spends $3 million to help citizens of other countries clog our court system to make deportation back to their home countries more difficult.

This article needs a little editorial help:

"Gov. Jerry Brown and top Democratic legislators on Thursday unveiled a groundbreaking plan to spend $3 million (primarily collected from Republican citizens) to make sure the young migrants , AKA Future Democrat Voters, get legal help."

Why? Why should the U.S. taxpayers have to pay a bunch of scumbag lawyers so a bunch of illegal alien invader scumbags can go to a “court” where some phony baloney, scumbag “judge” is going to give every one of them amnesty and “citizenship” anyway? This don’t make any sense and is a waste of money.

Stop the High Speed rail, place solar panels over the California Aqueduct to stop evaporation and increase energy, and move towards desalination for water. The educating foreign nationals would make sense if you had done all these other things first. Right now you sound like a nimrod, Jerry

Democrats appealing to their base: losers and freeloaders.

I believe the appeal is to the trial lawyers.
