Breitbart: Trump Deputies Stop Funding Free Lawyers for Migrant Youths
The Trump administration has halted free legal representation for 26,000 migrant youths seeking green cards, citing a review of the Acacia Center for Justice, which previously received substantial funding. Many of these youths, often crossing the border for jobs, claim abandonment by parents.
Critics argue this pause undermines due process and disproportionately affects vulnerable children, who face deportation without legal support. Currently, only about 57% of migrant children have legal representation in their deportation proceedings.
The Federalist: Trump Border Success Proves GOP Never Had To Negotiate
Recent data shows a significant drop in illegal migrant apprehensions at the U.S.-Mexico border following Donald Trump's return to office, with a decrease from 2,000 daily to just 786. This decline is attributed to Trump's reinstatement of border security measures.
Despite this, some Republican senators, including James Lankford, supported a bill that could have allowed nearly 2 million illegal immigrants into the U.S. Critics argue that this was a capitulation to leftist open-border policies, undermining American sovereignty.

Critics argue that the U.N. fails to prevent conflicts and supports adversaries, with specific scrutiny on groups like UNRWA for alleged ties to Hamas. The legislation would also prevent U.S. participation in U.N. peace negotiations and require Senate approval for any future agreements with the U.N.
