We have reached the breaking point. Hundreds of thousands of migrants are throwing themselves in to the care of border agents, who now function almost exclusively as babysitters and healthcare providers, courtesy of the American taxpayer.

There is no more space in the detention centers for the still hundreds of thousands more making their way here. The Department of Homeland Security, running low on cash, is now making cuts to legal services and other goodies we’re forced by law to give to anyone who shows up at the border, so that agents can at least try keeping some semblance of a system in place.
