wikileaks is not propaganda. Hillary's behind close doors talks of open borders, iirc, are not propaganda. Sanctuary state California, with closely guarded voting records, iirc, is not propaganda.

We already have strong vetting process here. It hasn't changed since Obama. And no the left does not want open border. You have been spoon fed that propaganda.
Also children can't help what their parents do (in your case irresponsible parents) so we shouldn't ignore them. There are organizations, including Christian ones, who try to help families (the ones that want to live normal lives we enjoy) in war torn countries. People with compassion would consider those poor children.
So basically you are saying they want to allow anyone in America? That's pretty much an invasion. Not sure why Hillary and Democrats want that.
Honestly we waste 100s of billions in overpriced military hardware. Don't see what all the fuzz is with blocking the WALL, even if it is ineffective, it still stands as a symbol. I mean can you imagine if family members complained about building a fence, specially when many are trying to get into the house?
The thing is low skill migrants who don't speak english and depend on welfare will tend to vote for the left. It is basically importing voters. You can do that until the welfare state collapses.
If the rumors of many of these migrants also being lower IQ and likely to produce lower IQ children likelier to remain trapped in poverty and dependent on the welfare state, it is basically buying future generations of voters with freebies.

Yes.
Are their children institutionalized?
Are their families permitted to visit them? To communicate with them?

Yep....another reason why these people are taken advantage of by selfish politicians who want their vote and it is mostly liberals.

Just remember folks, if liberals really cared about children and families they wouldn't attack families and support abortion.
Alan Dershowitz, Anthony Scaramucci and Bill O’Reilly all spoke out against the practice on Monday.
Alan Dershowitz, a Harvard Law professor emeritus and staunch supporter of President Donald Trump, on Monday spoke out against the administration’s policy that separates migrant children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border.
During an appearance on “Fox & Friends” ― a show Trump is known to follow closely ― Dershowitz appealed to the president directly. “You have to end this policy of separating parents from children,” he said. “Not because of the parents, but because of the children.”
“It imposes a trauma on the children. It’s just unacceptable. It’s just not proper,” he went on. “There are other ways of doing this. You can send the parents and the children back together. You can do other things, but separating parents and children ― no matter where you put them, no matter how the facilities may look... It’s not the facilities. It’s the act of separating the parents from the children.”
Why don’t the Democrats give us the votes to fix the world’s worst immigration laws? Where is the outcry for the killings and crime being caused by gangs and thugs, including MS-13, coming into our country illegally?
In an appearance on CNN’s “New Day” Monday, former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci also said “the president should stop” separating parents and children. “It’s very bad policy... Aside from which it’s inhumane and it’s cruel, which I absolutely don’t like. I think he needs to step back, stop listening his aides and his advisers,” Scaramucci said. “He’s got to step in there and he’s got to end this thing because I think it’s an atrocious policy, it’s inhumane, it’s offensive to the average American,” he went on. “When you think about American values, it does not represent American values.” Bill O’Reilly also weighed in on the issue via Twitter. “The government should know how bad this looks and how innocent children are actually suffering,” the former Fox News host wrote Monday. “That kind of scenario is unacceptable to most Americans.”

The Supreme Court ruling in Flores vs Reno and the Homeland Security Act of 2002 does.
what does it say about accompanied minors?
i read your post and noticed you put all focus on the unaccompanied minor portion of the ruling.

How about we only compare those who have adequate access to education? There is absolutely no way to know how intelligent these immigrants are or could have been if they had recieved proper education since youth.
Your comment is ignorant, racist or both.

Yes.
Are their children institutionalized?
Yes, if there is no immediate family or similar or someone with some sort of rights to watch over them now that their parents are in jail yes absolutely.
Are their families permitted to visit them? To communicate with them?
Under normal circumstances and on a limited bases, yes. I think even if the children are under state care eventually arrangements will be made for them to visit their parents which are in state custody though I can see this arrangement taking several months to happen.
I think the children being able to visit their parents should be given a high priority and if it’s taking months or not happening at all within a week or two then something should definitely be done about that. This goes for citizens AND non citizens.
Did you know that when American citizens break the law that they are separated form their children too?
