Summary

Immigrant advocates fear children will face severe hardships under Trump’s second term, citing potential policies like reinstating family separations, mass deportations, and reduced protections for migrant youth.

Trump officials may target laws like the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act and Special Immigrant Juvenile Status, limiting asylum options for unaccompanied minors.

Advocates also worry about renewed efforts to end DACA, threatening deportation for over 500,000 recipients.

Experts warn these actions could cause lasting psychological harm to children and families, exacerbating trauma across generations.

    People can’t see how transparently pointless and harmful to the country this whole obsession with “illegals” has become. You don’t need to be a philosopher to see that it’s just plain evil.

    It harkens back to the fact that human beings are nothing more than apes. Moral turpitude is on a spectrum, like all malignancies, and while 5% are fully psychopathic, a solid 30% of people are, for all practical purposes, incapable of abstract moral reasoning.
