Sure, that happens a lot despite Court orders to the contrary.
ICE has also deported full adult citizens, eg: Pedro Guzman, Mark Lyttle, etc.

Currently there's a running problem simply having access to the names and files of those that disappear into the ICE Gulag.

Per your sources, these happened in 2007-2008, so that hardly seems relevant to the current discussion. Trump is not responsible for law enforcement overreaches that occurred under GWB.

What is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
How many other developed countries in the world allow tourists to unconditionally birth citizens?
allow to birth? Only God does that. US does entice tourists by granting citizenship to anybody born on US territory. If you don't like it - change the Constitution. If you aren't changing it, then you want it for some reason.
Edit: to the commenter below - what "moral" has to do with the Constitution provision? I mean beside the general understanding that Constitution is a law and following law is in general a moral thing, and that US Constitution was generally an attempt to write a good moral thing.

Do the children of immigrants have fewer rights than other citizens?
I'm the child of an immigrant. Do I not deserve the same rights as any other citizen or resident of the US? If not, why not?
If you are a citizen child and your parents are arrested and subsequently incarcerated for breaking the law, you will be placed in foster care absent a suitable alternative guardian.
In this case, the children are being kept with their families. Who else should take them? Foster care?
Parents don't just magically get a free pass to break the law because they birthed a child.
>Do the children of immigrants have fewer rights than other citizens?
Your response doesn't even approach answering it.
Why is that? Are you unwilling to answer such a question? Did you misunderstand?
Your comment was completely unrelated to the question I asked. Especially since my parents are long dead (51 years and 28 years) and I haven't relied on parental support in 35+ years.
As I mentioned, I'm the child of a non-citizen immigrant. Do you claim that I have fewer rights than other citizens? If so, which rights, and what justification do you use to make such a claim?
That's not a rhetorical question.
Invariably someone will shoot back with "citizen children of illegal immigrants."
