US House Republicans vote against blocking ICE from deporting US citizens
Republicans on the US House of Representatives' Judiciary Committee universally voted against an amendment on Wednesday that would have prevented Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from using f...
Your daily reminder that it's not just Trump. The entire GOP is to blame for this.
Trump is but a symptom.
Mafia Don Mangolini is much more dangerous than just a symptom.
More like the willingly staged celebrity figurehead.
It's what he lives for.
The chump is happy to be ensconced in the political spotlight and take all the credit for what's happening while the even worse destruction is carried on behind the scenes off camera and "behind our backs" by those that are much more savvy and capable.
🤡 🖕 🖕
Distracting them with symptoms keeps the system in place
It shouldn't be possible to deport citizens from their own country. Why is there even a discussion?
Why is there even a discussion?
Because it's happening right now...?
Make every Republican fucking terrified for their life.
We should treat people wearing maga-hats like someone wearing a nazi armband. The outfit is a threat.
And I know if we get through this, there won't be any judgement. People will just be like "oh that's in the past let's just let it be", and people won't pay for their crimes, and the roots of this problem won't be ripped out.
I'm curious as to why the Democrats were shocked at the vote.
The outrage is performative. But no one is shocked by this.
They weren’t. They needed to get them on record supporting a horribly unpopular position so they could use it in the midterms. You’ll see a ton of votes that go nowhere like this that are just fodder for election bids.
It’s not deportation if you’re cast out of your own nation. It’s exile.
Deny, defend, dispose
Detain, deprive, deport
The expectation is that they are going to go for US POCs next is that right? I don’t hear people talk about it so I don’t know if I’m the only one who sees it this way.
Guess we know who the real anti-Americans are.
Oh look the cosplay constitutionalists are at it again
Does anyone have a link to the amendment? Or to the votes that were tallied?
The website seems to just link to the budget bill. If this were devs discussing a change to a repo, you'd have links to discussions, the code in question, related technical specifications... not just a link to what a dev said on Twitter and a link to the repo.
I don't know enough to parse the bills / their process, but I know enough to not care about what they say happened on Twitter.
Now they’re going to start kidnapping whoever they want to send to the EL Salvador concentration camps. Trump told bukele to build more prisons because he was sending home growns next.
They're more afraid of MAGA than they're afraid of ordinary citizens. Nothing will change until it's the other way around.
At this rate, they'd accuse Schwarzenegger of being a "RINO Democrat WOKE Feminist" and deport him.
Ok... fuck them, too
Wish we could deport them...
To Mars.
That seems quite wasteful, impractical and unnecessary. Deporting them to a volcano would be better. Or we could appoint them as ambassadors to aquatic life.
I'm no expert but throwing that many virgins into a volcano might be ill advised.
