Nope. The Thug-in-chief-elect has committed lots of petty and high crimes and misdemeanors, but there's no evidence that his immigrant mom or his pimp immigrant grandpa violated the law, and they're dead anyway. Just his wife.
My former Congressmember Anna Eshoo would've done the right thing, but she retired, and unfortunately the primary had a tie for 2nd place, which after a recount put the best replacement candidate in 3rd place.
“Charged with minor crimes” is the standard? So, anti-immigrant states don’t even need the police to plant evidence nor prosecutors to coerce plea deals to get immigrants detained and then deported over fabricated charges?
That is a terrifying expansion of the already out of control police state.
Im going to change my registration. Im so tired of go along dems. They aren't different from republicans: they all just do what they have to do to keep their jobs. They dont care what their constituents think, theyll just say everyone else wanted “this action”.
Two thirds of Americans want undocumented immigrants who commit property crimes to be deported. That's most of their constituents even in moderately Democratic areas.

Charged. Not convicted. So the police can charge someone with a crime, get them deported, and then say “oops, got the wrong guy. Oh well, he’s already gone.”
If you don’t think this gives places like Texas and Florida open season to bust brown people for offenses like jaywalking and then deport them I have a bridge to sell you here in Brooklyn.
They don't even have to be convicted, just charged. So they don't even have to actually commit a crime, just get the police to charge them and they can be detained without any bond hearing (a right previously enjoyed by all).
I hope President Biden has the courage to block this,
but Elon and Melania have probably at least had a parking ticket since working here as unauthorized immigrants.
So the move here - which the Ds got nothing in return for with the election - is to deport people for NONviolent crimes in response to an actual violent crime. Good job I guess...
The perpetrator had been arrested for multiple thefts and burglaries prior to the murder, so the act would have indirectly prevented this particular murder.
There ARE Democrats who are anti-immigrant racists, after all.
Fortunately most of them are better than that, and unfortunately the fraction of Republicans you'd EXPECT to be better than that apparently aren't.
It is essential to question the advantages of deportation. Upon reflection, it becomes clear that deporting individuals is ineffective and squanders $300 billion of taxpayer money that could be allocated more productively.
Well yes Democrats intentionally lost the election after capitulating to the right and parroting right wing talking points, all while enabling genocide using our resources.
