A Serious Cause for Impeachment

President Trump's impeachment should be dismissed as "frivolous". But there is a serious matter for which he should be impeached. The President allows foreigners permanent residence in the USA even though Americans can't have permanent residence in their countries. In Britain, legal aid is given for immigration. So in 1980, having been granted legal aid for my divorce, I then applied for legal aid to bring a case of Treason against Mrs Thatcher for allowing foreigners to live in the UK while I and other Brits can't live in their countries. But the Law Society rejected my request. … How unctuous and oft have we heard the mantra: No one is above the law. But access to the law is not available to all. Foreigners can and do go to law to enable them to live in a country. But the native inhabitants have no such access to prevent them. This is a systemic imbalance. Besides, people eligible for legal aid have a risk-free access to the law, while others don't. This gives them an unfair advantage and is another serious systemic imbalance.
