I can't stop thinking about the Venezuelans who were in the US legally, following all the rules to request asylum, and then deported to El Salvador on March 15th because they had a couple of tattooes. I am talking about Jerce Reyes Barrios, Andry Jose Hernandez Romero, and others.
Who if anyone is trying to get the innocent out of that concentration camp? What is the status on these cases? |
The President of Venezuela said he wouldn't take then back, so they ended up in El Salvador. If they had been rounded up a few weeks later they could have gotten off a plane in Venezuela.
Perhaps now that Venezuela is taking people back, some deal will be reached in about a year. |
This is heart-breaking. I can't believe the US we have fallen so low. How can any Trump supporter read this and not feel deeply ashamed? |
Because they think it won't be them and those people are brown |
I’m sure most Trump supporters are loving this. Deport a bunch of scary-looking brown people? Yeah! |
So we all get on the same page about due process and about asylum, can we start with the ones who are not "scary-looking"? We can start with those who were in the US legally, having applied for asylum.
Reuters analyzed the cases of 50 of the deportees and 27 of them had pending immigration court dates!! Over half of the 50 they looked at. https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/trump-deported-238-venezuelans-el-salvador-dozens-have-active-asylum-cases-2025-04-01/ These people are NOT ILLEGAL. These people have been already been interviewed by a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) asylum officer for a credible fear interview and were found to have a credible fear of persecution or torture. To the Karoline Leavitt impersonator or anyone defending these deportations, please explain how it is legal, ethical, or in any way ok to: 1. disregard a USCIS officer's initial finding that there is a significant possibility the person could be eligible for asylum 2. violate International law (the principle of non-refoulement) (in this case, I would think being sent to a human rights abusing prison is at the very least comparable to being sent to their own country where there is a credible fear of persecution or torture) 3. violate due process, guaranteed to all persons in our Constitution I don't see how any of these is defensible. |
I'm near Otay Mesa. So now contractors are importing disgraced Milwaukee police officers to run sham investigations. San Diego is already a magnet for D Bags and they've found a new category, remarkable. Focus needs to stay on these companies and thugs who are executing these orders. |
Agree. It is just so hard to stay focused with such rampant democracy destroying going on. Is there a specific action here? |
It is not heartbreaking. Have you even read a single account of what these gang members do to their victims? Hands chopped off with machetes. Sex-trafficking and forced prostitution of girls as young as 12. Fentanyl dealing in our schools. You prefer to keep these people here in the USA to victimize your daughter or son?? |
Not PP but in America people are supposed to have hearings in front of a judge to determine whether they actually chopped off someone’s hand before they are sentenced to prison. |
You’re describing rights given to US Citizens. You are talking about illegals invading the country. They have no rights here. Send them home. |
+100. The SC backed due process, even if that results in gang members eventually being deported. You just can't spirit people out of the country before they've received their day in court. We are a country of laws--we are not El Salvador. |
Everyone has those due process rights here. SCOTUS has determined that over and over. |
You are misinformed. Facts over feelings: Both legal and illegal migrants in the U.S. have due process rights under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, which apply to all persons, not just citizens. This includes fair legal proceedings, like hearings, before actions such as deportation. Legal migrants have robust protections, while undocumented migrants also have rights, though these can be limited in cases like expedited removal. --Source: Grok |
