What if their ancestors fought for slavery? We want to reward that right? |

A) If they came here with a valid ID, nothing prevents them from showing it at the boarding, correct? These are the IDs acceptable at the boarding for domestic flights: State-issued Enhanced Driver's License (EDL) or Enhanced ID (EID) U.S. passport U.S. passport card DHS trusted traveler cards (Global Entry, NEXUS, SENTRI, FAST) U.S. Department of Defense ID, including IDs issued to dependents Permanent resident card Border crossing card An acceptable photo ID issued by a federally recognized Tribal Nation/Indian Tribe, including Enhanced Tribal Cards (ETCs) HSPD-12 PIV card Foreign government-issued passport Canadian provincial driver's license or Indian and Northern Affairs Canada card Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Employment Authorization Card (I-766) U.S. Merchant Mariner Credential Veteran Health Identification Card (VHIC) If any of those people arrived to US with any of those types of ID, as you claimed, then all what it takes is to show it to ICE in order to be released (presuming that a foreign issued passport has a valid US visa). B) If they have a proper ID, they should show it. The problem is that these people don't have the required ID. How do you propose for them to fix it? C) ID is very important!!! BUT they cannot get it in US, they need to go back to their home country and obtain one of those IDs that are listed above. There is no other way for them to obtain the required IDs in US. |

We thought so too, but Hillary continued to flexing it. |

DP and I’m lucky that my traditional conservative family members are intelligent and empathetic enough to have recognized the danger of the MAGA cult as of J6, so I haven’t had to cut anyone out. They are now independents who don’t necessarily support all democrat political views, but they recognize the need to vote against falling into further authoritarianism. But if your “political” views involve supporting a party who refuses to denounce slurs and Nazi/rape jokes because it’s just kids being kids, you are okay with masked ICE agents grabbing people off the street without a warrant or ID, and you think Charlie Kirk’s racist and misogynistic rants are some sort of intellectual commentary, then this goes deeper into your underlying morals. And I find the morals of MAGA to be so abhorrent that I will protect my peace by not keeping them in my life (I have some friends/colleagues I’ve distanced myself from without any fanfare). Maybe they feel the same about me. I am confident in my values though that I am going whine about how stupid and mean it is if they cut me off. Good riddance. |

Makes sense that Republicans, devoid of competence or merit, would judge a person worthy exclusively based on what they were given by someone else.
Nepotism is all they have. |

What if their ancestors invaded and massacred the native citizens of ancient heritage? The Republican view on immigration is that immigration is OK if you murder everyone who arrived before you. So..... |

Calling MAGA deplorable isn't a flex. It's an apt description of a group of hate-fueled people without morals or decency who support fascism and enjoy the suffering of others. Figures MAGA can only think of ridiculous attempts at flexing. You exist in a shallow world devoid of critical thinking. It's all a race to the bottom making weak attempts at "owning the libs" etc as you go. |

A prime example of the type of person, lost in a web of MAGA lies and conspiracy theories, that we are all avoiding. Who wants to be around a person who is delusional and mean? |

How many MAGA relatives do you have. Have you actually had a conversation with one? Tried reason and facts to no avail. It's a cult. They need next-level deprogramming and it's not going to happen while they continue to feed off of the Faux News teat. |

Are you saying this as someone supporting MAGA because you believe women should not be allowed to have a first trimester abortion and or take Plan B, or that businesses should be allowed to refuse to make cakes for same sex weddings? As someone who thinks people should lose jobs if they aren’t sufficiently upset about Charlie Kirk? Republicans aren’t the party of “respect all beliefs”. They are the party of having the government make my beliefs illegal shove your (morally repugnant) beliefs down my throat. Plus, if you are okay with a felon rapist pedophile POTUS, and can excuse rape and pedophilia and Hitler/rape/gas chamber You NG Republican “jokes” because Cult MAGA, I don’t want to be anywhere near you. You are morally reprehensible and I chose not to force myself to be understanding of (or talk to) people who loudly and proudly excuse behavior that destroys the lives of the most vulnerable people in society. I certainly don’t want you near my kids. Your movement homeschooling so your kids aren’t exposed to my beliefs. But you don’t think I have the right to protect my kids from exposure to people who excuse young Republican boys rape fantasies as “boys will be boys”? Rape and pedophila hurt a lot more people than Girls Who Code clubs. |

MAGA attracts people with personality disorders and abusive people. Notice how many J6ers had family member eager to turn them in. Notice how many were later picked up for child p0rn and domestic violence. Notice how many had a history of these before J6.
These people were not liked on the family before Trump, and now that they’re in a cult, their family has simply given up on them. Because they cannot be reached. |

Stop watching your Fox News garbage. Many of the migrants housed using FEMA funds were here lawfully seeking asylum or pending other immigration proceedings. From a humanitarian standpoint and for the benefit of local residents, it is better to have a place to house them than leaving them out on the streets or cramming into slums. If you disagree with the current asylum and immigration process, then this is something that is the responsibility of congress to fix. I’m not saying democrats have done a perfect job on handling everything. But one easy solution to reduce unlawful immigration would be to enforce eVerify and go after the companies who employ undocumented immigrants. But that would upset donors and so it’s easier to just vilify poor, mostly brown, people instead. Also the reason most people are upset about tax dollars being used to help migrants is the sense of unfairness because why are citizens not being given the same help? But democrats want to also help citizens better afford things like healthcare instead of providing tax breaks to the wealthy. I will truly never understand why someone who gets upset over an undocumented immigrant being given emergency treatment (due to EMTALA) instead of left to bleed out on the sidewalk isn’t upset about someone like Musk infiltrating government and awarding his own companies federal grants without having to contractually compete? Also the school closures in NY were migrant schools closed to create emergency winter housing. It was not ideal as it disrupted the education of migrant children, but let’s not pretend like you’re wildly concerned about their wellbeing. Re: the COVID vaccine mandates, that was challenged and lost in court. The Biden administration followed the court’s ruling and backtracked on it unlike the current administration which thinks they have plenary power and that judges cannot control Trump’s use of the military. |
