Fascism Is here

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

I agree they're a bunch of weinies, but they've probably not figured out how to collar ICE without the Supes of the world screeching "open borders - immigrant invasion... Yada"

We either beat the MAGAts or we don't. There's no persuading them back to reality and humanity.

‘Highly problematic’: Trump admin faces internal doubts over ICE shooting response
Even supporters of the president fear that the administration’s approach risks undermining public confidence in the ongoing investigation.

I'm not really concerned with appeasing MAGAts directly but there are a lot of people who support immigration control and don't really pay much attention.

O Really is absolutely correct. A significant majority of the electorate desire controlled borders.

You really don't see any difference in "desire controlled borders" and the unchecked and illegal conduct of the current ICE?

MAGAts only care when Brown people do "illegal".

True that. But the ironic part is that before 9/11 borders were much more "open" than any time since. When I was working for La Raza, the crossings in South Texas did not require a passport (either way) and were pretty much wave 'n go with a drivers license. There was a customs stop about 50 miles in, but still no big deal. They did make an effort to stop suspicious looking drug mules, but their biggest bust at the time was sheer luck. Camper was stopped, inspected, and cleared. As the driver was backing to turn, he hit a pole and a bunch of bags came out the side. But crossings at non official places weren't controversial, either, pretty much all along the Big Bend. Canada the same way. No passport required.

Things everywhere changed after 9/11. Can't have those Meskins coming into the country and flying planes into our building. Oh wait. Can't have those Arabs sneaking in like wetbacks to blow up our buildings. Oh wait.

Anyway, 25 years after 9/11, people don't know the difference in ILLEGAL and asylum applicants, have no idea that most ILLEGALS don't get in by way of sneaking across the Mexican border. Have no idea what the actual current law is, have no idea how many people were deported during the "open borders" of Obama and Biden, have not a clue as to what actual rights immigrants (ILLEGAL or not) have or how those rights are violated every day now. But sure, let's go beat up on some Brown people. That'll fix it.

Supposed "mortgage fraud" again? That's been their go-to vs high level officials, a failure every time so far but it does send a message.

True, but this "investigation" is over the restoration of the Fed buildings and testimony about it. Tbh the price tag does seem extreme, but I'm not diving deep enough into it to form an educated opinion. That's the DonOLD effect - you know you're never going to get a true story, anyhow.

:thumbup: You should go on tv and make that speech. And I'm referring supes to the last paragraph.....because of his post about "enforcing existing law." That very statement proves he does not know what the existing law is. But he doesn't listen to me.

Oh c'mon. I'm pretty sure you're just yanking my chain, but whatever - I'll play. Immigration laws don't exist in a vacuum. You can't just say "I'm enforcing immigration law" and do it by violations of civil rights, other related law, or legal procedure. You can't say "I'm just pertecking my propity" and do so by shooting a guy running away across the street.

Murdering soccer moms in the street then organizing the FBI to preclude state investigation as part of a coverup is not "illegal"??? I guess that makes sense to a fascist.

No evidence of that whatsoever. But even if she were, that's not illegal, nor was she doing anything justifying deadly force.
