    Trump made promises during his campaign, and he's keeping them. He didn
    promise to let Soros-funded federal judges stand in the way of protecti
    innocent lives.

    He promised peace in Ukraine with a timeline that should have happened by
    now. He promised the release of the Epstein list with a timeline that should have happened by now. He promised lower prices with a timeline that should have started by now.

    But if I were to prioritize the list you just gave, I'd put deporting illegal immigrants at the top.

    Yes, I would not mind that either but if they don't deport them legally they run into problems like having court orders and injunctions that prevent them from deporting *anyone*, legally or illegally.

    He did make a vow to preserve and defend the constitution - I remember
    seeing that at the inauguration. Although skipping the "from enemies
    foreign and domestic" line was odd.

    I didn't realize he skipped that. That is very, very odd, as if he knew he wouldn't be keeping that part of it. :(

    Funny, how democratic and republican-appointed judges have been ruling against Trump. As for funding judges, that's not worth comment anymore, given the makeup of the Supreme Court.

    You're literally all over the map with this statement. It's not the USSC judge
    that are funded by Soros, it's the federal judges.

    USSC judges are federal judges.

    If you read it as two separate sentences, it makes perfect sense. The
    federal judges appointed by both democrats and republicans have been ruling against Trump, not because of who they are funded by, but because his administration is attempting to do things that are blatantly illegal.

    2025. Others have said the full oath of office for as long as I've known - until Trump.

    While I suspect that they didn't know what they were talking about, I do
    wonder if taking the oath has any "expiration." Obama took it in 2009 for
    the first time. I would assume that he is bound not to do any of those
    things as a former President, either.

    OTOH, if in 2013 he'd skipped some parts because he was "already covered,"
    I would suspect he could also later argue that, since he was sworn in again
    and since he didn't say those parts the second time he was no longer
    covered by them.

    So I suspect it was intentional on Trump's part.

    All this information is very unspecific. There have been a handful of fake sounding news stories floating around lately, like the one about the young man from New Mexico who was supposedly "arrested by border patrol in Tuscon, AZ" and "held for 10 days." But they also said that he failed to provide any identification, which in itself is a crime in some states. It's all very iffy information that was provided, similar to the iffy story that you shared.

    That's so iffy because it's not illegal to be gay in El Salvador. Sounds like the media is trying to conflate homosexuality laws of Nigeria with any country that the TV view doesn't reside in.

    Don't you and Joe both have wives that are not US born?

    If you are not concerned about due process, then you are the idiot. Period.


    Here's some differences... If our spouses were to be able to prove their statuses they could prove their status in the US. If they didn't have their status proof on hand their finger prints will show their status through immigration.

    Our spouses didn't sneak into the country.

    Buddy from El Salvidor had due process. The "Father From Maryland" had Due Process. His case was reviewed by immigration Judge and as well as immigration appellate court heard his case. Both said the State could deport him and both said he was a MS13 gang member.

    BTW, last night on the news the document that his wife filed for the restraining order, because he kept beating her, she claims he's a gang member. And the President of El Salvidor says he's MS13.

    He was also arrested several times and released back into the country... Because of Sanctuary City/State laws so that he could commit more crime and beat his wife more, apparently she wouldn't listen.

    Maryland father had his "Due Process" and needed to be removed based on the fact that he did not enter the country legally... He was a got-away and didn't even sign in the last time he crossed the border.

    Immigration court(s) found him deport(able). Trump's new Executive Order/Action prioritized Gang Members and violent criminals for deportation... and he fell under that order as well... So, he was seen by an Immigration Judge, a removal order was issued. An appellate court heard his case and upheld the removal order... And while he was in the US he broke major laws...

    This is not a hill to die on... There are other cases out there that would touch your heart than this one.

    BTW, again, if my wife belonged to an organization that participated in human trafficking whereby they sold people, including children, into prostitution and whatnot. If she participated with an organization who was responsible for trafficking drugs and whatnot into the country, among other things. I personally would have called ICE on her and I would help ICE deport her.

    Here is a better story for you to fight, rather than fight for a gang member who beats his wife.

    Weeks back there was a raid where they captured a 1/2 dozen or so gang members and in doing so checked on the statuses of the people around them. They found a woman who had been in the US illegally for the last 30 years and she had 3 US born children.

    She was put on the next jet leaving to her country and off she went. Because she was deported she'll never be allowed back into the US... She's screwed.

    In the 30 years in the US she couldn't have made herself legal? Ilhan Omar married her brother to legalize (Either her status or her brother's) or even the AG Of NY Letitia James married her father, on paper anyway, to commit crimes. She had options in the 30 years to correct things and she didn't... And now she's enjoying herself in a tropical paradise somewhere, without her babies though... Drinking rum and smoking cigars while talking to her kids on Whatsap or messenger.

    I saw a meme the other day that was fitting... It showed the changes of the Democrat party has made in the recent past. It took the LGBT logo and added something... LGBTMS13. The current Democrat party cares more about Gang Banging non-citizens than it does about US citizens, even worse, the marginalized ones.

    You are right... In the US there are 3 different branches.... Decades ago the legislators in the US passed immigration laws that state you are you can be deported from the US if you enter illegally or break other laws while you are in the US.

    I have known people, one in particular, that was in the US legally, he was a Green Card holder. He broke the law and was shipped back to the Dominican Republic before knew it... I have to pay to go to the Dominican whereas he got a taxpayer paid ticket out of the country!!!

    That's right.

    Something that a lot of people don't seem to realize is that people who come to the USA legally (with a visa) are walking on eggshells the whole time they're here, unless/until they become citizens. One false move, and they can be on a plane (or worse) back to their home country.

    So what's that mean for illegal immigrants who never even applied for a visa? Apparently the media has our monkeys trained into thinking that they should be treated even better than those who came with permission from DHS.

    Notice that these people are not crying about the 911 suspects being held in Guantanamo Bay (because Simon didn't say!)

    All this information is very unspecific.

    It is unspecific because I don't remember the guys name. His case has been on the TV news (60 Minutes and more recently regular news) off and
    on since the mass deportation to El Salvador even occurred. His
    attorney was interview and she is real.

    Everything looks real on TV, but believe me, Mr Ed doesn't really talk, and Alf isn't really from Melmac.

    That's so iffy because it's not illegal to be gay in El Salvador. Sounds the media is trying to conflate homosexuality laws of Nigeria with any country
    that the TV view doesn't reside in.

    Try being a young homosexual in a supermax facility overflowing with criminals and gang members.

    Prison is too inhumane for gay men? Where should they go when they break the law then?

    It's more idiotic to let the TV alarm you about stuff other than tornado warnings.

    If you don't watch the news and don't know what is going on, you are playing right into the hands of whoever (Dems, MAGA, Soros) is trying to control you via social media.

    But the news doesn't tell you what's going on; you have to see for yourself.

    My journey to the US started for me in the 90s. I became a citizen in 2004... As an adult looking back I believe that I was always an American but I was raised by Aliens...

    I have friends in Canada hyperventilating over the Canadian election and I sleep well every night knowing that we have a president who loves us fighting every second of the day for us!!!

    BTW, I told my wife to make me a sandwich or I'd call ICE... She made me a sandwich and then threaten to stab be with the butter knife that she made the sandwich with... The stabbing would have been Tren de Argua or MS13 style... But I was able to fix things by telling her to calm down and stop acting liker her mother!!! :)

    I saw a meme the other day that was fitting... It showed the changes of the Democrat party has made in the recent past. It took the LGBT logo and added something... LGBTMS13. The current Democrat party cares more about Gang Banging non-citizens than it does about US citizens, even worse, the marginalized ones.

    Meanwhile, the current administration has developed a bad habit of sending emails and letters to *citizens* telling them they have to leave the
    country *immediately*.

    I don't want MS-13 here, but I also don't understand why they are pestering law-abiding *citizens*. BTW, the two cases that I have posted about here
    are not latino and were born here. If you watch the videos you can see
    that. Put a red hat on either of them and they could pass for MAGA easily.

    I know of no one who's getting emails and or letters... I suggest that you ignore anything that doesn't pertain to you.

    You have nothing to worry about if you are legal and not breaking any laws.

    BTW, it could be Soros or someone like that sending those emails out just to implant a narrative for Lib-Tardsto repeat.


    Meanwhile, the current administration has developed a bad habit of
    sending emails and letters to *citizens* telling them they have to leave the country *immediately*.


    No one legal has to leave... Focus is on Gang Members and Criminals, then people who've been adjudicated and you have your deportation papers already... the final, and less important to the last group(s) I mentioned are people who are illegal... This last group the admin isn't actively seeking... But if you are caught when they are rounding up others... Your exit process will start.

    I just finished helping someone get their green card... She's legal and as long as she keeps her nose clean she'll apply for citizenship in a couple years, and she'll get it.

    I know a family who were illegal, I knew their father and he's since passed away. The eldest son, now a citizen, became so about 5 years ago... Once he became a citizen he filed for his mother... Mother now has a Green Card, youngest brother now has his Green Card as of 6 months ago... There is 1 child left, she's a female, and they are working on her.

    I would have considered her to be a Dreamer... She was 4 or 5 when she was brought into the US... I would hope that they start talking about the Dreamers again... But if they find her hanging out with the wrong kind and she gets deported then so be it.

    BTW, I talked to her just the other day and I asked her if they have found a solution yet... fingers crossed!!!! She's been in the US most of her life and for the most part the US is all she knows.

    You are right... In the US there are 3 different branches.... Decades
    ago the legislators in the US passed immigration laws that state you
    are you can be deported from the US if you enter illegally or break
    other laws while you are in the US.

    And there's a fifth amendment that affirms the right to due process to
    persons. Not citizens. No one is saying people who enter the US
    illegally shouldn't be deported. We need to reconcile the country's need
    for that labor, though. I think we're content to allow the workers into
    the country who keep a low profile, pay sales taxes and work menial jobs
    for comparatively low wages and deport those caught breaking laws other
    than immigration. Whether that's OK, I'm not sure.

    As a politician, I wouldn't want to be caught between being seen as
    "easy on illegal immigration" by a republican opponent or asking your constituents to pay $12 for a head of lettuce.

    Wrong - I see a need for migrant worker immigration reform - first
    hand. I live in an agricultural region of my state. We're screwing
    over the workers we need to provide food for those pesky tax-mooching
    red states.

    You believe in trying to ensure that all workers, regardless of their
    immigration status, have access to fair wages, safe working conditions,
    and the right to organize and bargain collectively, and a 'Roadmap' to
    citizenship for undocumented workers.

    Does that about sound correct?

    Everything noted above happens when immigrants enter the country
    legally. Being undocumented illegals means they won't have the right to
    those things.

    What they need to do is enter the country legally and use that
    'Roadmap' to citizenship. This way has worked for millions of
    immigrants. Illegal undocumented immigrants need to be booted out of
    the country back to where they came from. Then maybe they can try the
    correct legal method to get what they 'deserve'.

    That's accurate, but reductive. The economy depends on illegal workers, and we don't have a process that effectively allows them all to enter legally, track them, tax them appropriately, and make sure we send the people home to their home country if problems arise.

    17% of Mexico's GDP is made up of US dollars expatriated by people sending money home to their families in Mexico. Deport all illegal immigrants and you bring down our neighbor, making their people more desperate and more willing to travel to the US for economic gain.

    17% of Mexico's GDP is made up of US dollars expatriated by people sending money home to their families in Mexico. Deport all illegal immigrants and you bring down our neighbor, making their people more desperate and more willing t
    travel to the US for economic gain.

    While I suspect this might be true, Mexico seems now to have a President
    who is capable of gettng the country turned around to where they eventually won't need us that much any more.

    In time, that may suck for the US but I am glad they are getting on the
    right track.

    That doesn't change what I said.

    It actually does. Your stance towards me was if it doesn't directly affect me I should ignore it. But apparently that only applies to me
    and folks who are concerned with what is going on now.

    OTOH, going on and on regurgitating talking points about things Biden did that didn't directly affect you makes sense.

    Double standard much?


    I'm not sure that I understand your argument here... Everything Biden did affected everyone, if you liked it or not. Letting MILLIONS and MILLIONS of un-vetted criminals made EVERYONE unsafe.

    I say round them up and deport them "ALL". If you're hear illegally you might/should be on the next plane out.

    As I have said in the past I know someone who should be considered a Dreamer... She was brought to the US when she was 4 or 5... Her family now Legal, she's the only odd one out.

    If ICE gets her before a law is passed... So be it...

    BTW, everything Trump is doing affects "ALL" Americans as well... As Trump focuses on removing Illegal Criminal Rapist, murdering Gang Members. Fellow citizens can now live a safer life.... And young 12 YO girls that weigh ~85 pounds won't have to endure 2 grown men raping and killing them.

    What they need to do is enter the country legally and use that 'Roadmap' to citizenship. This way has worked for millions of immigrants. Illegal undocumented immigrants need to be booted out of the country back to where they came from. Then maybe they can try the correct legal method to get what they 'deserve'.

    That's accurate, but reductive. The economy depends on illegal
    workers, and we don't have a process that effectively allows them all
    to enter legally, track them, tax them appropriately, and make sure we send the people home to their home country if problems arise.

    You are out of your mind. The economy does NOT depend on illegal
    workers. Non citizens can obtain a work visa legally which tracks them
    and allows the tax system to tax appropriately. Sending them back is
    the territory of ICE.

    Oh I also like the way you worked 'reductive' into the conversation.
    I've been trying to find a way to use that one too, good job!

    17% of Mexico's GDP is made up of US dollars expatriated by people

    Kurt, and people like him, live with a worldview that the Elitists rule over the plebes. The plebes are too stupid to make any good decisions, so the Elitists must make those decisions for them - and the first step is to take away any ability to make decisions. Also the plebes exist to do the "menial" work that the Elitists think are beneath them (but, in reality, are beyond their capability to do).

    Kurt also still has the illusion that he's one of the Elitists when, in reality, he's just a useful idiot.

    On that last one, it appears that despite DOGE's best attempts, this administration spent more in its first 100 days than the same period last

    sound just as capable of being wasteful as any other party, just not

    It got pushed so far to the left that anyone who could think left the party.

    There are only 3 groups left:
