Lawyers and legal observers expressed confusion and frustration this week as immigration hearings ramped up at two new tent facilities along the US-Mexico border in Texas.

The facilities are an expansion of the so-called Migrant Protection Protocols program, which requires some migrants to wait in Mexico for the duration of their immigration proceedings. The judges, in these cases, are not at the tent facility but preside by teleconference from other immigration courts several miles away. The process has meant lawyers have faced a host of logistical challenges in representing clients who are staying in Mexico.

Lawyers who are representing migrants scheduled for that day of cases and filed proper documentation can enter the facility. But those who want to observe the daily proceedings are limited to the immigration courts where the judge is located.

I'm with Elizabeth Warren who promises to eliminate for-profit jails. It's an abuse waiting to happen.

Does anyone remember these headlines when Obama built the cages? Me either.

Why? Oh because they want back logs on back logs because they know their clients have zero legal right to be in the USA.

Catapults are far cheaper (okay maybe not in some cases), and tons of fun I bet.
