The arguments from the White House that a single judge shouldn't be able to issue a national injunction is really just an argument that the President is unbound by the law. ur system relies on that single district judge to make a ruling. Cases can't start at the SCOTUS level.

I've actually been monitoring this one. Yesterday, there was talk that she was on J-1 visa and improperly got the H-1 visa. That was just speculation as the reason for her denial was not formally explained, so I didn't (unlike many) want to jump the gun. It looks like the real explanation is below ... Just a moment...

Er ... he = she. Yes, she should sue if she thinks she'll win. But no, I really don't think she'll win this one. Maybe, wait till the next time a more sympathetic administration is in office?

I guess it's happening "sooner". I don't know all the legalese and it'll probably end up with SCOTUS to make a final determination. From what I've read, it seems Trump/DoJ are arguing ... Quote:
This is definitely a CYA as people don't remember the same words etc. which provides plausible deniability. If the Judge told me to do this, I would have asked for a written order explicitly stating his instructions. Quote:
If I was Trump, I would have redirected the plane to Guantanamo. There would still be a fight, but that one has more "grey/leeway" than "not subject to judicial order after leaving US airspace". Last edited by Edward64 : 03-18-2025 at 05:05 AM. |

Absolutely. Don't think she'll win as far as why she was detained, but I can see a lawsuit in her treatment during detainment.
Front Office Football Central - View Single Post - Trump's Immigration Reform But no, not going to spend much time worrying about her. There are more worthy illegals & legal non-citizens to worry about. Spend more time worrying about the below situation ... Texas child being treated for cancer — and who is a US citizen — is deported to Mexico with undocumented parents | The Independent ... than on illegal felons sent to Guantanamo/El Salvador; Canadian tattoo artist trying to skirt visa constraints; Palestinian doctor who supports enemy of US etc. Because if this is what Dems/Progressives think will win them the next election, I predict they won't get enough votes.

I'm tempted to say "if you're quoting Bill Maher to support your argument, you've lost whatever shred of credibility you once had" but you didn't have any credibility so, I dunno, maybe negative credibility?
Put it this way, if you told me the sky was blue I'd still check it myself. Also, you're a fascist cunt. |

Why would Chinese and Indian doctors come to this country if they can be removed for liking a tweet the President disapproves of? It's not about removing one person, it's the chilling effect it has on anyone else who enters the country and dares hold a view opposing the ruling party. Why invest in this country if it can all be destroyed every 4 years based on the whims of the new President? No, Israel does. This tiny ethnostate is in full control of our immigration policies. Absolutely humiliating for a so-called superpower. Quote:
You would think after the former President got arrested for crimes against humanity which included a plot to blow up Senators that oppose him and murdering those in regions where he doesn't have popular support would cause you to quietly not bring this up again.

Making it a prerequisite for talent to worship one of the most reviled countries in the world if you want to enter puts you at a massive disadvantage globally. Just another reason why this country continues to get cooked in science and technology of late. The American Great Leap Forward continues!

I think I understand what you are saying. Instead of your original statement Quote:
You really meant to say Quote:
Otherwise, your "full control of our immigration policies" makes little sense other than in your la-la land. For instance, what does our immigration action vs the Canada tattoo artist, or the German "I missed my court date" have anything to do with Israel? But if you really meant your original, then your link doesn't support your position. I read it a couple times, if I'm wrong, post the article quote that supports "full control of our immigration policies (not limited to Palestine/Lebanon).

Comiccon.com is warning comic book creators not to travel to the US because of stricter visa enforcement. Good to see the government cracking down on important things like stuff that brings people joy.

FWIW ... There's an accurate quote in the article Quote:
Comiccon is in Jul, so about 3.5 months away. There is absolutely a concern for creators/sales people who come on tourist visa but actually "sell or do work". Why should nerds get a pass. The solution is just get the "right" visa and maybe have to pay a little extra $. Their legit concern is ... what is the right visa to get and is there time even with 3.5 months? The solution is Comiccon should reach out to Immigration and ask for clarification so they can tell their attendees what to get. I'd think Comiccon should have that information from past conferences and would have shared it already (but maybe not). In my working life, my team members and I have done work in Canada, UK, France, Belgium, Hong Kong, China, Thailand, Philippines, Singapore and we had to get the appropriate short-term "working" visa (not a business meeting visa). I honestly don't remember it taking longer than 3-4 weeks at most. It's normal and the right thing to do. And yeah, got a felony or drug use on record? Had some team members that asked for clarification from our internal department, we actually had to drop a couple from international assignments. In other words, pretty normal in my experience.

It is not about just Comicon. There are thousands of little conventions that make little to no money, as well as thousands of small independent comic creators who lose money on their hobby. This is basically black-balling lots of those creators ever being able to get together with their fans. It is sad and pretty pathetic.

You're convinced that there is a process that can be followed and will be honored, but we're seeing that that isn't true. The rules change from day to day. People are detained without process. There's no certainty that a person can do enough to be sure they won't be harassed or detained. Under those circumstances it's much safer to just not to come to the US.

This. "Why would anyone risk going to {Russia|North Korea|Iran}? You know they might do anything to you." When there are multiple news reports of (pretty, white) Canadian and British women are being detained, we're basically there.

If you are referring to Comiccon ... if the process (and restrictions) are followed, application filled in properly, interview conducted etc. I don't see why it won't be honored? If you are referring to the bigger picture of all legal travel into the US, I don't have the stats, but going to use the 80-20 rule (feel free to propose differently). The 80% of travelers into the US won't be questioned and will sail through. The 20%, that have questionable situations, I agree should not travel into the US at this time. Off the top of my head, these include foreigners ...

"The Trump administration has admitted in federal court documents that “many” Venezuelans it accused of being dangerous gang members and deported through presidential wartime powers have no criminal records in the United States, but argued it was only because they had only been in the U.S. briefly. President Donald Trump used a centuries-old law, the 1798 Alien Enemies Act, to deport the Venezuelans without due process in the U.S., saying they were members of the feared Tren de Aragua gang. “The lack of criminal records does not indicate they pose a limited threat. In fact, based upon their association with Tren de Aragua, the lack of specific information about each specific individual actually highlights the risk they pose,” said Robert Cerna, a top Immigration and Customs Enforcement official, in a sworn statement filed Monday night to a the U.S. District Court in Washington D.C."

Pretty standard GRU/MSS/SVR tactic, to frame your target as unhinged and unreliable, so as to undercut their arguments that you can't defeat in normal fashion. No, you should picture me saying "authoritarian fascist" in a dismissive, disparaging, and weary tone, summarizing my (indeed, our) collective dismay at your continued water-carrying for modern-day Nazis. An easy mistake to make in a text-only communication medium, so I am happy to magnanimously forgive you this time. Though, to be clear, you are still a fascist cunt. |
