I’m still not entirely convinced it’s not an elaborate bot of some sort. Pardon me while I put my tin foil hat back on.

100x this. What a clown. Hope he finds a good deal on a 216" TV soon, though.

That's what that slot is for? Why does no one tell me anything?!

Bringing in some thoughts on autism from the other thread...we talked to our kids about what to say if someone approaches them. Both their parents were born here, but two grandparents born in India, which is enough to make them look...something. A few weeks later, we reviewed, and our 15 year old son who's autistic (although he will have a job and pay taxes, can use the bathroom by himself, but spot on about not dating, good call) said he would say "I came here legally" -- and we're like "no, you say you were born here and you're a US citizen." A week later we went over it again, and he was like, "but I *did* come here legally" -- he knows he was born here, I think it's just that when he's speaking, he doesn't think the difference in word choice is important.

Just have to hope the guy with a 70 IQ who couldn't meet the extremely low standards of being a police officer decides that the passport is enough.

‘We’re citizens!’: Oklahoma City family traumatized after ICE raids home, but they weren’t suspects

OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) — A woman says her family’s fresh start in Oklahoma turned into a nightmare after federal immigration agents raided their home, taking their phones, laptops, and life savings – even though they were not the suspects the agents were looking for.

OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) — A woman says her family’s fresh start in Oklahoma turned into a nightmare after federal immigration agents raided their home, taking their phones, laptops, and life savings – even though they were not the suspects the agents were looking for.

“I said, ‘when are we going to get our stuff back?’ They said it could be days or it could be months,” she said.

but according to Edward isn't this how it is supposed to work? Everything will be OK because they are citizens.

Been 25 days since Edward last posted in here. I wonder why

Either someone pulled the power on his PSU or maybe ICE found out he didn’t turn in the illegal immigrants that built his house and he’s in El Salvador now.

He’s literally busy moving the goal posts

The biggest move ever

Still here, enjoying travelling overseas.

As mentioned somewhere else, having issues with my laptop connecting with IHG wireless, so have to keep things short with my iphone & ipad (e.g. takes much more effort to doublecheck, quote stuff, counter arguments etc. in the Immigration thread with all the stuff going on).

As always, look forward to engaging all of you in illegal/legal immigration discussion at a later date.

Trying to figure out if this 2 year old was one of those hardened criminals we hear so much about.

It would be nice if the President was one-tenth as concerned with how he deports himself…

[Atocep]

It looks like SCOTUS wants to put limits on or provide guidelines on when a lower court can issue nationwide injunctions. It doesn't sound to me like the birthright citizenship EO has a chance in hell of standing.

[Ghost Econ]

I'd be willing to bet the admin spins it as a win and starts deporting citizens anyway because the Supremes and Congress would do nothing. Seriously if I could get odds I'd put up all the proceeds of my recent house sale.

It's all just cosplay and influencer shit for these folks. When asked to produce a budget or anything that relates to the job they have no answer.

Trump is given a big Supreme Court loss, with only Thomas and Alito dissenting. The Court says there must be "especially robust" due process before removal if they can't be retrieved after they are removed.

We really need to remove those two corrupt justices at this point. I don’t give a shit who replaces them. Let Trump pick replacements but those two are not fulfilling the job they were given at this point.

It's pretty wild how transparent they have become.

[flere-imsaho]

I'm hoping one of the justices writes an opinion on the birthright citizenship case that says:

"Birthright citizenship is guaranteed by the 14th amendment. If you want to change it, pass an amendment. Otherwise, stop wasting this court's time."

It's entertaining how many on the right want ACB removed from the bench because they expected her to be like those two.

[flere-imsaho]

And, to be clear, ACB should be nowhere near SCOTUS, in the first place.
