Trump and the Justice Dept need to get going with appointing more immigration judges because the last Administration has left some empty chairs that are clogging the system. Too many "detainees" could be let loose again never to return to court.
Mr. Castaneda and others want Mexico’s government to endorse a tough and perhaps risky strategy to battle an expected increase in deportations of their undocumented compatriots in the U.S. by underwriting the migrants’ legal struggle in the U.S. court system. By overwhelming already heavily burdened immigration courts, Mr. Castaneda hopes the legal system would break down, bringing deportations to a halt.
Mexico’s government hasn’t endorsed the strategy, but President Enrique Peña Nieto recently budgeted about $50 million to the country’s 50 consulates to help pay the costs of defending migrants who are in the U.S. illegally and facing deportation. WSJ

During a CBS "60 Minutes" interview on Sunday, Trump said he would look to deport, or incarcerate, up to 3 million illegal immigrants. CNN
Ah Yes Vermont, the state that has been least affected by immigration in the United States, 94% non-hispanic white, and likely one of the most homogenous cultures in the country. I give them a pass for being oblivious.

I thought Conservatives favored power be with the states, and keeping the Federal Government OUT of their affairs?
How do you justify this intrusion of state's rights?
The last thing we want is for anybody, or any entity such as Congressmen, Senators, Judges, Journalists, or States to feel threatened or bullied into acting against their better judgment.
I frankly find this disturbing.

Not long ago the average conspiracy theorist was saying the same about the feds. All of a sudden they are the good guys?
