Really? Just... Really?
Really? Just... Really?
They aren't letting more people in. They are just following the current laws in regard to that.Republicans: we got a immigration problem! How do we show that we have one?
Desantis and Abbot: I got an idea! Let's get them into a carvan and planes, and put more into the country! And then frame it as the failure of the woke left!
Any sane person:... Why not just use real cases if this is widespr-
Abbot and Desantis: nononono we can't do that. Too hard to find
Person: then it's not as widespread-
Republican: LOOOOOK ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS DEM FAIL!
So is it legal when the Biden administration flies minors around in the middle of the night? Must be (D)ifferent.Last I checked, human trafficking is a felony in this country. Doing it under the guise of a political stunt is even worse, not better. If the cops won't arrest these criminal scumbags for it, the citizens need to.
Additionally, border states receive a lot of federal funding and resources for the migrants which are expected to cross into them. So it seems like these governors are making a good case for revoking that funding.
What a fucking stupid comparison. Yes, it is obviously different when immigrants have to be moved for processing or to be reunited with their families. GOP governors are luring immigrants with fake promises of welfare/job opportunities, and having them dropped off in random neighborhoods or in front of their political opponents' houses. Never in places that are prepared to handle them, nor are these governors acting on behalf of immigration services. They're doing it entirely as smug, self-serving stunts, which means they bear the sole responsibility of their criminal actions.So is it legal when the Biden administration flies minors around in the middle of the night?

If you actually care about human trafficking, look into the complete lack of documentation about what has happened to those kids.
It's about 80 miles of new, with over 450 miles total and much of what replaced is something a child was able to easily bypass.They're not winning anybody's vote with this, and nobody with two brain cells to rub together believes Trump's ten miles of new border wall was actually slowing illegal immigration.
Ooh so 80 miles of new wall on a 2000 mile border. Very impressive.It's about 80 miles of new, with over 450 miles total and much of what replaced is something a child was able to easily bypass.

Again, just over 450 miles were built while Trump was in office. So 22% of the entire border built in about two years after all the fighting for funding. This was with about $15 billion in funding, contrasting $54 billion spend on Ukraine so far.Ooh so 80 miles of new wall on a 2000 mile border. Very impressive.
It should make you wonder where the majority of that money went. Fearmongering over "migrant caravans" is nothing but a smoke and mirrors act to make you look elsewhere while Trump and the GOP pick your pockets themselves. Especially considering that they're also the ones hiring a significant portion of illegal immigrants, thus drawing more to the US.
I don't care, dude. There are plenty of videos that demonstrate the new wall is just as easy to go over, around, or straight through using supplies you can buy at Home Depot. And you didn't address the fact that Republican executives are not only allowing for, but encouraging the hiring of illegal immigrants. Even Trump was still hiring them at his hotels while in office. It's such an obvious grift, and you're so obviously an idiot for falling for it.Snip
TLDR, I don't have an argument but I do have a bunch of whataboutisms. blah blah blah.I don't care, dude.

I don't know, border crossing were down to almost nothing compared to where they are today when Trump was in office. What changed? Oh the perception that the border is open and people can come right in.You wanna discuss actual solutions for slowing illegal immigration? There are two options, which can be combined for maximum effectiveness if you want. One is punishing execs from the top down for hiring illegal immigrants, not with something ignorable but with actual prison sentences (5-10 years should do the trick, and not at club fed). A few of them do hard time and the rest would take notice real quick. Two is a path to citizenship which encourages migrants to register with the state from the outset, thus preventing employers from exploiting their labor for less than minimum wage. That way, American citizens who might want the same jobs can actually compete. We also need to raise minimum wage, but that's a bit of a tangent.
The GOP will never agree to either of these policies, because, you guessed it: they don't actually want to fix the problem. They just want to play both sides of it for eternity, ensuring the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. All the while using migrants as political footballs instead of treating them like human beings.
GOP: traffics in immigrants with tax payer dollars.GOP: close the border.
Dems: no.
GOP: can we at least deport the ones that we caught?
Dems: no.
GOP: ok, then have them and deal with them yourselves.
Dems:WAAAAAAAAAAA
Complaining about double think right after blaming the GOP for the current immigration crisis.GOP: traffics in immigrants with tax payer dollars.
Also GOP: Democrats are promoting illegal immigrants.
Look if your going to just do double think all day I'll leave you to it, since I'd rather not use my last remaining braincells trying to get through your thick skull what's actually happening instead of the kool-aid you've been drowning in.

You do realize that's 50 arrests of people "ON THE TERROR WATCH LIST" not just general arrests. With border crossings down under Trump they weren't attempting to slip by in the chaos. Some I'm not sure what are you trying to argue? Maybe that Biden's border policies are a total failure?Hmm, 50? more than the last 5 years? who was the last Pres-
oh never mind. I'll provide like, two more low effort posts and them I'm out.
Love it. Love it. Love it.
