House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is taking President Obama to task for the “totally unjustified” deportations of illegal immigrants during his administration.

“I think that there is discretion in the law as to the implementation, enforcement of the legislation that is calling for these deportations,” Pelosi told the Spanish-language station Telemundo.
