Immigration

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

All she wants for Christmas is to be deported. ICE won't let her go

:wtf: :cry: She's even offered to buy her own ticket.

Lithuania is a NATO ally. We can bet that Tatjana Vesiolko's plight is being heavily reported there. Thanks, MAGA. :roll:

Dont have to look very far to see potential "ILLEGALS" hanging drywall, creating stonework, tending landscaping, framing houses, fixing plumbing, planting and harvesting commercial crops that feed the nation, and yes, hanging out at Home Depot and places waiting to take almost any job available.

On the other hand, I can't say I see a lot of trumpers doing anything worthwhile for society.

I especially like how supes says that trying to overturn the results of an election is a "distraction." I think that calls for another reference to the words of John Wick, which are quite accurate. "Yeah, but it won't matter." No amount of legal references, moral argument, or plain common sense will ever pierce the veneer of abject submission to a raccoon eyed juvenile minded moron and pathological liar they wear like a badge of honor.

Once again one of my posts goes over Neo's head. The distraction was not the importance of overturning an election, but trying to change the subject.

Oh, then pardon me. I just assumed you calling trying to steal an election a distraction, like a lot of other cultists called the multi state ond long running effort to submit fake electoral vote certificates to Congress, and then the riot trump incited being called "legitimate political discourse" instead of what it was, was just the standard right wing knee jerk response to any of that shameful set of events as just being a distraction, something that's in the past, and how ti didn't work anyway. But generally speaking, I could be lying flat on the floor and no "point" you ever try to make will go over my head.

:lol:
Well, I suppose there are trumpers who have worthwhile jobs not associated with their politics, although they do tend to bring their brand of politics into everything. But as trumpers, in a political sense, they're destroyers, not builders, and certainly more dangerous and detrimental to the country's security than some ILLEGAL who didn't get the right stamp on a document on time.

Successful folks are offering goods and services that are desired by multitudes. That is not destroying, but allows people to enjoy their earnings.

You're registered on Bluesky, right?
'60 Minutes' viewers call for boycott after segment on Trump's deportations to CECOT pulled

... Just hours before 60 Minutes was scheduled to air a segment on the El Salvador prison CECOT, where Kilmar Abrego Garcia and a number of other people deported by the Trump administration have been imprisoned, CBS announced that the report was “postponed” and would not air during Sunday night’s program.

... Weiss’ defense has been met with skepticism by many who see this as yet another example of CBS seeking to placate the Trump administration in the wake of a change in ownership for the network. The sale of CBS to Skydance Media, a company led by billionaire Larry Ellison’s son, David Ellison, has coincided with previous network interference in 60 Minutes’ coverage of Trump, as well as the canceling of Trump critic Stephen Colbert’s late-night show. This latest apparent act of censorship has led to calls for a boycott....
According to PBS the segment was "accidentally" placed online in Canada :lol: . This has been copied and posted to Bluesky, which I'm unable to search. Can you help?

It has not been taken down from your 3rd link, Bluesky, or your 2nd link, The Reset. I did not check Melon's X, the 1st link. For others, your 2nd link, The Reset, has superior audio and video to your 3rd link, Bluesky.

There is a lot of assuming that ICE did not have a warrant for this subject. If that is the case the action of ICE is appropriate.
Who is doing this assuming? And what the hell are you actually trying to say? You seem to be saying that even if ICE did not have a warrant for this guy, what they did was appropriate. Is that it? And that if there was a warrant for him, the judge in the court he was appearing in would not know that? Did you know that ICE does not issue warrants? Are you assuming they do?
I fully understand a warrant from come from a court. If there was one ICE had every right to pursue the subject in the courthouse.. The judge knew that and assisted the subject in avoiding ICE.
Here's another legal perspective on the topic of courthouse raids:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/fed ... 19128.html
"This circumstance presents noncitizens in removal proceedings with a Hobson’s choice between two irreparable harms," Judge P. Casey Pitts wrote in his Christmas Eve decision.

"First, they may appear in immigration court and face likely arrest and detention," the judge wrote. "Alternatively, noncitizens may choose not to appear and instead to forego their opportunity to pursue their claims for asylum or other relief from removal."

The judge made an astute observation. If one is in the country illegally they are in jeopardy.
