DP. For the thousandth time, Biden was deporting people already in custody and in detention facilities, of which there was a steady supply due to Biden policies. Of course, many more were just released into the country. Now that “easy” stream has dried up due to Trump reversing those policies and implementing new policies that have decreased the numbers entering to a trickle. Arresting and deporting those already in the country and not detained is a whole different ball game requiring a wholly different set of resources. |
Checking in to see how the mass deportations are going. It's been 5 weeks since Trump was inaugurated. Deportations have been happening, but not at the scale we were promised they would happen. What's going on?! |

New research from the Urban Institute shows that mass deportations would likely worsen the housing shortage by decimating the labor force. Immigrants make up >23% of the construction workforce & more in FL, TX. About half are estimated to be undocumented immigrants. |
Too bad Florida and Texas. As long as some libs are somehow, somewhere negatively affected, it is worth it. I guess. Is it? |
They seem to forget that illegal immigrants live somewhere. |
Making America Great Again |
The illegal immigrants have thrown away the free cell phones they were given at the border. The cell phones have tracking devices and the illegal immigrants had to take their photo once a month and it was uploaded to ice. |
DHS is enforcing federal laws that have been ignored for decades.
Now they are setting up a system where illegal immigrants must register to be fingerprinted. Of course they won't register, but now they are in violation of section 266 of INA. Sanctuary jurisdictions won't just be ignoring ICE, they would be ignoring the US Marshals picking up a fugitive who has committed a federal crime, not just a civil violation. |
How would they work, would that be like a chain gang or something? Maybe they could be put to work building the detention facilities and building a wall. |
No laws have been ignored for decades. That's a right wing rally cry, and as usual BS. |
If your first sentence is true, that would mean Trump also ignored these laws during his first administration. Meanwhile, grocery bills are through the roof. Maybe ICE employees should make themselves useful and pick us some produce. |
Trump implemented part of this in 2020, but Mayorkas came in and canceled it. |
It's all a big sideshow. The real show is where Elon Musk and the other oligarchs are raiding the Treasury and making themselves richer at our expense. It's not enough for him to be the richest man in the world. He wants our money too. |
