    1. @Kevin Preston No if they come here requesting Asylum and they change it two years ago requesting it. Then you change the process now, some without notification, but you met it two years ago. They are here legally then but because you changed the rule now you declare them illegal.
      There’s already a suit in court fighting this now.
      Look here’s a bad anology”
      If you go to the airport to catch a flight but they changed the rules of how you can get you ticket and board the plan. The plane leaves in 10 min. Now you can get on. Would you be happy. Yes you can go back home but they can not. It is not against the law to claim asylum.
      Yeah I know bad anology but the only thing I can. Beside most people who are illegals are the one who FLY IN. Not crossing the boarder. The Devil is in the details, only if you pay attention.

    2. David M So are you willing to give Obama credit for deporting more illegals than any other president or are you going to be a hypocrite and claim trump is good but Obama did nothing about these illegals?

  1. So basically do the same thing Germany did to Jewish peoples. Detainee entire groups of peoples indefinitely. How is this NOT a crime against humanity??

  2. Anyone familiar with Alexis de Tocqueville, or even Socrates? They both discussed how easily a democracy can fall into the hands of a demagogue, which is exactly what’s happened.

    1. Funny thing those demagogues are the first to disarm the people and limit their freedom of speech. That is what the liberal elitist are doing

  3. First they came for the Immigrants and i did not stand up because i was not an immigrant …. will there be someone left to stand up for you when they come for you?

    1. How about we keep them out of black communities and ship them to where you live so you can show how humane you are! We black folks would live if you take them in rather than coming to where we live and displacing us!

  4. This is the Administration violating an agreement that became a Federal court order thus giving a big 🖕🏼 to the judiciary!

    1. @Troy Stocker
      This administration was brought to you by the fans of DUCK DYNASTY AND HONEY BOO BOO also PUTIN

    2. @Troy Stocker
      The GOP is KKK in RED CAPS now
      Rural racist maga maggots looking to blame the minorities and WOMEN for their pathetic low lives

    3. @Troy Stocker
      Toothless hillbilly CAPITALISTS on food stamps crack me up
      U maga maggots need education and mental health care not guns and walls u fking moron

  5. **Avoid the following accounts:** Professor Bhaer, SweetTea, NPC#XXXX, texasthunder, tellallwtc, New Horizons, and David M. They are strategic trolling accounts who are run by either the same person or group of people, and always post in the same timeframe. They’re here only to waste your time and sow division, so ignore them.

  6. think about it – who is making the most money interring immigrant families? Private companies are making billions on housing (internment camps). I can’t recall the exact figure, but what comes to mind is approx $750/day. Instead of lining Haliburton type corporations, put that same money toward aid to central america. Or at the very least, make a one-time investment in monitoring technologies. Talk about the Benjamins – that’s what it’s all about for the corrupt and disgusting Trump regime.

    1. This is a great idea, and a fine investment. This is only the beginning. America is going to make money on these criminals. In a few years, there will be millions of illegal immigrants in our prisons. I bet they stop coming then.

    1. While we are at it, let’s give America back to it’s original inhabitants and follow suit. From which country did your family immigrate from? Or are you a Native American?

    2. @Jeremy Backup You people are all about giving America to someone or another, but I’ve got news for you buddy. We ain’t giving this country to anyone. If you have the guts you spineless weasel, you can try and take it. You’ll have to do that before you can give it to anyone.

  7. This is exactly why Nancy Pelosi was a coward and a moron for giving the Republicans immigration concessions a couple of months ago
