First they came for the illegals.
Then they came for the citizens who were children.


This is why we have courts: Because ICE isn't someone you can trust to give you a truthful answer.  That kid could have stayed with their dad/partner.  That's typically how it works.  Or another family member.  The fact that ICE is saying this is what she wanted is not something anyone can verify.  Which, again, is why we have fucking courts!

She didn't visit a court to enter the country, why should she bother visiting just before getting kicked out of it?

Her son is a US citizen.  And while she would probably be deported, her son would not.  What happens to the kid is decided in a court with the parents having several options.
The conviction will get overturned on appeal.

An anchor baby, you mean.

You mean a long and arduous series of court sessions where everyone stalls for a decade and then argues "she's been here for a decade!" and lets her stay instead of getting deported. I don't think this administration is going to fall for that classic gag.

The amount of lying and crying here for criminal migrants is astounding, considering the ones doing the lying and crying actually don't give a fuck either.
In a civilized society whether someone is a criminal or not is determined in a law court.
It's the lack of due process which should concern you. It doesn't because it's not affecting you.
Yet...

Excellent description of MAGA in a brief statement.  Watching all the MAGA buyer's remorse happening would be comical if what was going on was only affecting them, but it's affecting everyone.

Folks like A80 will go on about people "crying here for criminal migrants" because he doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself right up until ICE breaks down his door without a warrant.

Long?  Look, I know your attention span is bad but 2 hours is hardly long and arduous.

Due process rights need to be protected for everyone. Once you start making exceptions, you're essentially conceding to current and future governments the freedom to decide who does or doesn't deserve these rights, which is a catastrophically bad idea on the face of it. You can't just say "Well, I want them to be able to make an exception in this case, but not for any other cases." Either the government has the power to trample our rights at its pleasure - in which case, it will do it, and keep on doing it, and you won't be able to stop them - or it doesn't.

So, listening to Trump talking live.  Right now.

He admits that he ran for president to protect himself.  That if he didn't win, his life would be very very tough. 

He decided to run to save himself.


Congrats all: Trump admits he only cares about himself and y'all think otherwise.

Also, he thinks he was related worse than Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Jackson.  One of which died.  The other committed forced relocation and other atrocities.

So.. ya know.... He's worse.  By alot.

You're a criminal migrant as far as ICE is concerned.
You don't have a goddamn clue about the things you type.

Oh but I do.
See, ICE is for profit now.  Privatized.  Been that way for a while.  And now they have no leash.  No reigns.  And no reason not to trust an anonymous tip that says you're illegal.  They won't check.  They don't care.

This is a lie. The child was not deported. The woman decided to take her US Citizen child with her.

Oh yes, lets trust the people who deported her to tell the truth.  I'm sure they have aboslutely no reason to lie.  Nope.  That's why they skipped the formalities of a judicial hearing and jumped right into it.


Seriously Tom... believing the official story?  Really?  Gonna go support NASA's moon mission now?

It also says this in the article you linked:

    "The parents made the decision to take the child with them to Honduras. It is common that parents want to be removed with their children," said Tricia McLaughlin, DHS' assistant secretary for public affairs.

Are you claiming that the parents didn't want to take their child with them to Honduras? That would be an odd claim. Most parents in that situation would want to take their children with them. If the parents take their children with them then the children don't need to go through an official ejection process. Patents are legal guardians and make legal decisions on behalf of their children, which in this case was to go to Honduras with them.

If in an unlikely situation that the parents insisted that their US Citizen children stay in the United States, the government would probably send them to foster care if alternative family arrangements couldn't be found. The government can't deport a US Citizen to a country where they have no legal status.

How was I supporting it in that post? I was neither supporting nor condemning it. I was just stating as a fact that society is still trying to figure out the trans issue and what to do with it
...
I stand by my quote - I mean, it isn't even an opinion. It's just a fact that migration has been a good thing
...
Again, that's not an opinion it's just biology. I didn't express an opinion on abortion in that post, I was responding to the assertion that a clump of cells in the very early stages of development is a "human life who wants to live". It doesn't have a brain, how can it "want" anything?

These are all textbook leftist woke talking points, no matter how much you try to spin them as neutral facts or just biology. Claiming that loss of jobs to mass migration is good, reducing the trans issue to some vague societal confusion, and throwing out the tired "clump of cells" argument on abortion are straight from the woke playbook. Whether you admit it or not, you're parroting woke ideology.

Your point that you are not on the far left is subtle, but irrelevant. You are clearly a woke lefty.

It interesting how much that lot care about unborn babies.
And how little they care about actual babies, children or adults who are vulnerable.

And here you are virtue signaling, a classic hallmark of a woke leftist. Your argument that you are not on Team Woke fails hard.

You went full cliche with the virtue signaling about caring for the "vulnerable." This is typical woke deflection. Pretend to care about children and adults while dismissing humans in the womb as irrelevant. It is a tired, hypocritical tactic, and it doesn't make your denial of being woke any less laughable.

Also, yes, a mother would keep th child with their US parent than take them to the place they left.  Happens often enough.

But yes, I'm very woke because I think vulnerable children and adults should be cared about and protected in a civilized country, and that there should be due process.
