[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For your MAGA guests, I recommend making placemats out of pictures of Trump with Epstein.[/quote]

And for your liberal guests I recommend printing out this press release from ICE on 2015 when Obama was president:

Yes. Homan was very good at deporting criminals who were in the country under Obama. As you’ll recall, Obama deported more people than any other POTUS: with due process and without cosplaying a video game.

Unfortunately, in the interim, Homan seems to have lost his way. [/quote]

It’s cute that you think Homan and Obama were only deporting criminals. Latino groups had issues with Obama because he was deporting thousands of illegal immigrants, not just criminals.[/quote]

This is not a purity test (NP). You can be critical of what Trump is doing while also not having agreed with Obama (who has been out of office 10 years now). But, Obama at least didn't disappear people with a masked gestapo force and terrorize local communities. There is no both sides to that. [/quote]

Cell phone cameras weren’t as prevalent then, so you literally have no idea if Obama was terrorizing communities or not. And Obama should have rightly been deporting illegal immigrants. It’s one of the reasons why he’s the best president in the past 50 years!

Nations have a right and duty to deport people who enter their countries illegally. If countries who deport illegal immigrants are “fascist” literally every country in the world would qualify as a fascist country

This is from an article in 2014, so this 2 million figure is surely less than the final number.

[quote]The principal finding of the Times investigation is a damning indictment of an administration that has claimed repeatedly to be targeting the worst of the worst violent, foreign-born criminals. In reality, according to the Times analysis, [b]“two-thirds of the nearly two million deportation cases involve people who had committed minor infractions, including traffic violations, or had no criminal record at all.” [/b]In contrast, only “twenty percent—or about 394,000—of the cases involved people convicted of serious crimes, including drug-related offenses, the records show.”[/quote]

The point is unless you were raising concerns 10 years ago about deporting non criminals - most liberals on this board weren’t - you have no moral standing to act like deporting non criminals is an issue now.
