    The US CAN, you fucking asswipe. You don’t WANT to.

    You are like a petulant child, only caring about what you want, you narcissistic prick.

    Key words there being “it wants to deport”.

    The problem isn’t the trials, it’s the selection criteria.

      Better make sure you always have your passport and birth certificate on you. And even then, that might not protect you.

        Won’t work. That kind of evidence would be presented at a trial. For your average ICE agent, your documentation, and lack of criminal record makes it obvious that you have ties to a powerful street gang who is hiding your crimes.

        This is literally what ICE has argued in the past few months.

          Yeah. They literally said that that the lack of evidence is actually the evidence, and that it is proof of a hyperintelligent criminal who has lead a life of crime without ever being caught. And that is why they have no criminal records… because they are criminals who haven’t been caught yet!

        I haven been to the US since the end of 2019.

        I’m a citizen, but live abroad with my wife. I will be visiting my family this fall and I’m so happy my birth certificate is here. I’m totally bringing it with me just to be safe.

          Is your wife from a background that could be remotely linked to something “bad” by crazy radicals?

          that basically boils down to being from any part of the world that constitutes as Brown, Socialist, Controlled by China, or Controlled by Europe, in the Radical’s view.

        It’s done.

        BUT… some of the more sane sympathizers are starting to realize the King is insane, and are pushing back. Not saying that’s going to save us peasants. but it’s a sign.

          Yeah, the Republic fell a month ago with the first times they ignored the courts and some people seem to think they can give it TV style CPR and get right back to where we were on Jan 18 like nothing ever happened.

          Babies, the damage is done. And it’s not even over yet. Place your bets now on 2040 turning the corner back to stability. A lot will come to pass between now and then. That’s 15 years from now. We have passed a generational level of work to rebuild after only 80-some days.

          If you don’t already have an actionable plan for what to do next, with defined tripwires of when to do what, you’re very late to the party. Not too late, but late.

        Expiring contract? You got traded to El Salvador for a 3rd round pick in 2048 and cash considerations.

        Time to get a new agent for a real contract. Unions won them to begin with, which is why they’re a main target of every authoritarian regime.

    Then we should reform our immigration policy so we can tax them right? That’s the only carrot on a stick I think they conservatives might take.

      They do pay taxes. This weird myth that immigrants somehow all work live and work in the US for free is silly. They pay income tax if they work, they pay sales tax when they buy things, they pay property tax if they own a home or help someone financially who does.

      He didn’t. But the guy who did already knew you’d blame him. This old turtle of a man knew it he denied nearly all Obama judicial appointments no one would come after him. They’d just blame Obama. No one gets how the government works and they blame the president for anything and everything.
