:why:


It's not. We enforce too, no matter who's President.

What are you really trying to say? I assure you, our borders are always enforced.

im sorry, but im not understanding why a nation of laws with a border is supposed to accept this. canada doesnt. the UK doesnt. you know, those universal healthcare countries



i know that white people are racist, but do the democrats expect that to negate our fukkin border being rushed? this is embarrassing

Biden's apprehending more people than Trump but you don't mention that. Just put on your maga hat and campaign for Trump. Just go ahead and step out the political closet.

thecoli needs to install a feature where Cac Mamba doesn't get to post unless he scrolls slowly enough through the OP that he conceivably may have read it. Not cause I think he'll actually start reading, but I don't believe he even has the patience to scroll slow.

The OP is about US CITIZENS who are locked up by ICE for years. Not illegal immigrants, we're talking about US CITIZENS!!!



Among the dysfunctional ICE bureaucracy’s most egregious shortcomings: the wrongful arrest and incarceration of U.S. citizens and legal residents. Davino Watson was wrongfully imprisoned for 1,273 days. Sergey Mayorov was wrongfully imprisoned for 324 days.

Mark Lyttle was wrongfully imprisoned for 53 days, then wrongfully deported and “forced to cross the Mexican border on foot with only $3 in his pocket,” an ACLU summary of his ordeal alleges. “Lyttle endured 125 days wandering through Mexico, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Guatemala, sleeping in streets and shelters, and even being imprisoned in a Honduran jail, before he was finally referred to a U.S. consular officer in Guatemala who actually listened to his story. The officer obtained confirmation of Lyttle’s U.S. citizenship by calling one of his brothers who serves in the U.S. military. Only through the extensive efforts of Lyttle’s family and a lawyer was he finally able to return.”

One might imagine that plucking Americans out of their lives, strip-searching them, confining them to cages, and rendering them terrified, unable to work, and unable to see their families would be considered as scandalous by the GOP as the wrongful application of extra scrutiny to nonprofit organizations seeking to obtain tax-exempt status.

Yet every House Republican except the unusually principled Representative Justin Amash is now on record extolling the personnel of the agency that subjects hundreds of Americans each year to either wrongful arrest or the wrongful extension of federal or local incarceration.

NPR reported on the phenomenon just before President Donald Trump took office. “It’s illegal for U.S. immigration authorities to hold Americans in detention,” the news organization noted. “However, an NPR analysis of data obtained through a Freedom of Information Act Request shows that hundreds of American citizens each year find themselves in a situation similar to Palma’s. Those data show that from 2007 through July of last year, 693 U.S. citizens were held in local jails on federal detainers—in other words, at the request of immigration officials. And 818 more Americans were held in immigration detention centers during that same time frame, according to data obtained through a separate FOIA request by Northwestern University professor Jacqueline Stevens and analyzed by NPR.”
