the democrats shit the bed?Get_Right said:I never said that or brought race into the equation. You did that. So what does that make you? A racist? Just like your weak Nazi comparison? Perhaps. Under the current administration, you might want to wait before coming "here." And that is just objective advice. I guess it is easy to sit in Nova Scotia and judge the US immigration policies under an anti- immigration president. If more people voted we might not have this issue. But the Democrats shit the bed.
trump won the popular vote. we have what americans voted for.
if i were you, i would not tell people to stay in canada. we need more of them here."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

Yep. The Harris campaign was a joke. Someone got it really wrong when it should have been a layup. Trump did not win by being a stronger candidate, he won because Harris took it for granted. And they lost.0 -

I heard your dog whistle. Immigrants, legal and illegal, have a lower crime rate than native born, but you knew that, eh? Oh, and those bed shitting dems had a bipartisan immigration bill hammered out until Herr Fuher threatened to expose the tapes so republicans could run on a racist policy.
But hey, both sides are the same as surely you remember Obama and particularly Sasha and Malia conducting themselves in such a manner, eh?
An agreement between the U.S. and Kazakhstan has given a group of American investors with ties to the president and the commerce secretary access to one of the world’s largest untapped reserves of tungsten.When Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick met with Kazakhstan’s president at the St. Regis Hotel last September in New York, President Trump jumped in by phone as the men sealed a deal on a top priority for Washington.
During the call, Mr. Trump and his team won an agreement from the Kazakh leader to give a little-known American company access to one of the world’s largest untapped reserves of tungsten, a metal that the United States desperately needs for the production of missile warheads, fighter jets, computer chips and other critical goods.
Ahead of the deal, the Trump administration approved preliminary applications for as much as $1.6 billion in federal financing for the American company, now called Kaz Resources, which plans to break ground on the project in rural Kazakhstan.
It was not only Mr. Trump and Mr. Lutnick who saw an opportunity.
Their sons were soon doing business with partners in a deal that their fathers were negotiating, continuing a pattern of self-enrichment in the second Trump administration that has few precedents in American history.
Within weeks of the St. Regis negotiations, investors with a firm called Dominari Securities, which is housed at Trump Tower in New York and partly owned by the president’s two eldest sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, joined with other partners to take a 20 percent stake in a corporate entity related to the Kazakhstan project.
Around the same time, Cantor Fitzgerald, an investment company controlled by Mr. Lutnick’s family and overseen by his sons Brandon and Kyle Lutnick, helped one of the lead investors working with Dominari on the Kazakh deal raise $210 million in new capital for a related entity. Such rounds of fund-raising typically net Cantor millions of dollars in fees.
The Kazakh deal was ultimately signed on Nov. 6, six days after the investment involving the Trump sons and their partners, which was not publicly disclosed at the time.
The arrangement is hardly an outlier. One or both families have financial ties to at least 14 companies that are actively working with the federal government on critical mining deals, including the Kazakhstan project, according to federal filings examined by The New York Times.
All 14 of these companies have either benefited directly from offers of financial assistance from the Trump administration, or have pending permit applications before the Commerce Department, which Mr. Lutnick oversees, The Times found. The total amount of federal funding that the Trump administration has provided or is considering providing to the companies exceeds $8.9 billion, according to public statements by the companies and federal government.

Not sure how that comes back to me. I vote but have zero faith in our political system. The system is broken and has been for a long time. Read the Federalist Paper Number 10. James Madison had it right. Factions control the decision making. And right now it is those that support Trump and enrich him. You can hate him all you want. But do not be naive as to how he turned the Presidency into a business.0 -

You’re the one claiming “both sides are the same”. Maybe put up or shut up with your false comparisons. You were asked for a list of comparable dem corruption and deflected instead. You’re also the one who, as a self-proclaimed attorney, recommended that you, general you, just comply with unlawful ICE orders and seemingly didn’t know where ICE’s legal authority stemmed from. Now you’re comparing the US legal and political systems with Chiiiiiiiiiiiina’s and Singapore’s as if those are apple to apple comparisons. The US Constitution used to mean something.

No I referenced China and Singapore as stark contrasts. If anything it is lychees and kumquats. But keep feeding your idealistic narrative. And I do believe that people end up in bad situations because of their bad decisions. The Constitution will not help you if you do not have ID and are pulled over. It might help you in court, but not on the side of the road. Asking for ID is a lawful order. Refuse and you might end up in jail. ICE or the local PD. And you should not be in that situation in the first place. And like I said, there is harsh immigration enforcement going on. The entire world knows it. So why would you be surprised when ICE comes knocking if you are here illegally?0 -

The Supreme Court issued a decision upholding citizenship for children born in the US. Again demonstrating that many of Trump's executive orders are not worth the paper they are written on.0

While I am sure it is just the one niche issue...the part I read about people here in the US on temporary status should not be covered under birthright citizenship kinda made sense. I am betting that is a small amount though, but have no idea.gimmesometruth27 said:

The text of the constitution has been interpreted in many different ways. What I think is most important is that they are striking down Trump's use of executive orders to implement policies. Abuse of power at its finest.0
