    largest deportation of violent criminals

    lol, so they’re gonna deport like 50 people or something?

    Violent criminals already get deported.

    The immigrants here are only here with a legal status or are under the radar “illegally” probably living on friends’ or families’ social security numbers… paying taxes with no chance of collecting on social security (not that it’ll be here anymore in 4 years.) Or they’re working under the table at some farms for sub-minimum wage, propping up our domestic food industry on top of the subsidies the are already given.

      Also, a lot of them just came over on a plane or drove in a car legally and never left. They’re committing a civil infraction, not a crime. It’s on the level of a heavy traffic fine where they would take your license away if you didn’t pay.

        Nope.

        When I married my wife during the first dumpy presidency, the joke we had was that she was going to be deported to mexico. She’s Dominican, speaks fluent english, makes six figures… but off to Mexico with her because the racist fucks don’t realize where people are actually from.

        I expect this kind of thing to truthfully happen. Speak Spanish? off to mexico you go!
