Endless studies showing that only a tiny portion of illegal aliens are legitimate refugees, and Frontline keeps pushing the lie

First, not one mention of the fact that during the eight years of Obama the proportion of separated children increased EVERY year? Just a mention of different rates between Obama and Trump without mentioning that since it grew every year under Obama it would have been as high under any president, GOP or Dem as it is under Trump? Oh and where did the policy of putting them in paid foster care that Frontline criticizes come from: OBAMA

And really to continuously use the term"refugees" to describe all illegals is just Orwellian doublespeak. Under US law, international law refugees are a about 3% of the people coming over the border illegally. In Germany under 4% or immigrants are found by German courts to be legitimate refugees. Teh rest are just lying.

The issue with separation of children where either supposed parent or child has no clear and sufficient identification, establishing of relationship and permission of he other parent illegal crossing is that US LAW REQUIRES DETENTION and SEPARATION. Why? Because there is no way to stop kids from being trafficked or taken in custody disputes.

The law also prevents long chain migration where if you are able to get one minor over the border, they get status of some kind, and the rest of the family follows thus encouraging using five year olds on dangerous journeys to get a family over.

And calling someone from Guatamala, who is illegally destroying forest, and burning and stripping environmental law protected areas in Guatamala in order to raise cash crops. And who gets caught by Guatemala authorities, an "a persecuted environmental activist" thereby implying this makes them eligible or refugees status is the EXACT abuse of the refugee laws that is encouraged by immigration lawyers and that is the core problem. If I am a rapacious burner or mass denuding of forests in Brazil, and the police catch me, I can claim political refugee status in the US? What??

That that guy brought his kid with him illegally and then expects free medical care including an expensive heart operation -- which earns a taxpaying Americans will do without one or be forced to pay -- is obscene twisting of the issue.
