Massachusetts political leaders vowed to try to protect young immigrants after the Trump administration announced that it was abolishing the federal policy that has shielded roughly 800,000 people from deportation.

In a chorus of indignation, local, state, and federal elected officials blasted President Trump’s decision to phase out the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy and promised to fight for young immigrants in the Legislature, the Congress, and the courts.

Attorney General Maura Healey, a Democrat, said Massachusetts and other states plan to sue the Trump administration to preserve the program. Those states may include California, New York, New Mexico, and Washington, she said.

“Dreamers are Americans,” Healey said, referring to young immigrants who were brought to the United States illegally as children. “They may not be citizens, but they sure are Americans.”

1. I have noticed how GOP spokespeople now insist that we are a "nation of laws"

as it applies to DACA, but only that.
When it comes to emoluments, bribery, collusion, conflicts of interest, perjury or whatever else trump is up to that day, not so much.
