    Not really. Many followed our asylum process rules.

    Why do you pretend that's not true, when it is?

    Also, should we cut the heads off shoplifters? It's ok to break the law against alleged lawbreakers, right?

    Or only when YOU don't like the alleged lawbreakers?

    What determines if someone broke a law? A trial?

    If we're going to have arbitrary application of our laws and rights... I call dibs on being the one to call them, ok? I promise to be mostly fair and impartial.

    Trump decided a bunch of Latin American (and some middle eastern) refugees were here illegally when he halted USRAP on his 1st day. They went from “being here legally”. on 1/19/2025 to “illegally” on 1/20/2025 with a stroke of his pen.

    With a separate stroke of his pen, he’s ordered his administration to fast track refugee status of these white South Afrikaners.

    Then quit pretending it is about safety. Deporting a college kid who came here at 4 years old and turned right on red is not going to make the US safer. It just gives you some warped sense of justice. Immigration system is broken; they allowed these people in because we needed them for the labor market. Anyone pretending otherwise is delusional.

    Now you want to punish them by treating them inhumanely (due to open racism). They are imprisoning them for months with no hearings. Then sending many to prisons in random countries, not their countries of origin.

    I hope you don't claim to be Christian, because this is not how to treat people.

    Sorry. This power is now reserved for MAGA only, as the Constitution is very clear on this matter.

    Why is this question going unanswered? How do we determine who is here legally or not without due process?

    So constitution for me but not for thee?

    And yet you fashion yourself a patriot.

    Oh the irony.

    Because, to them, whether a person is a "legal" or not has very little to do with the actual law.

    Yes, and unfortunately made so by the rogue and unconstitutional federal district judges who can't see past their TDS.

    You don’t think people should have factual hearings to determine what is true before they are locked up?

    They have deported US citizens and green card holders. What law did they break by being here?

    Maga would use the Constitution for kindling if they could use it to burn down a liberal person's house.

    Another interesting feature about their racism. They are deporting people who statistically are conservatives and believe in nuclear families.
