Where does it say āchild traffickingā or āchild/childrenā. PSA for some folks: Human trafficking is a general description of the exploitation of humans for the benefit of another. Doesnāt mean kids, doesnāt mean just transporting and doesnāt mean sex stuff necessarily. They stated that they suspected him of human trafficking, seemingly for transporting unpaid, coerced laborers to some job site, etc. * of course, the stated basis for that belief is simply a bunch of dudes with no ID in a car going far to work somewhere. Thatās not much of a smoking gun.
Did you ever explain the āchild traffickingā allegation you just threw out there initially? I havenāt even seen that asserted by the WH or right wing propagandists.
Cool. I was specifically replying to the last sentence of Twiceās post, giving an example of something that I think a lot of people would not ordinarily think likely to occurā¦since it hasnāt before. The only conflating was in your brain.
On a related note, this John Oliver segment on immigration court from 7 years ago is just rage-inducing. Elementary school aged kids appearing in court with no guardian and no attorney:
I have a client on an F1 student visa. He had a PENDING Class B possession of marijuana charge. He was notified last Friday that his. USA had been revoked and that he can appeal the determination in order to actually have some sort of hearing in a Federal (District, I think?) court. Not CONVICTEDā¦just pending, which is just ridiculous.
The government of El Salvador locks up people deemed to be terrorists. So, they/we called him that and so now heās locked up forever basically. ETA: This is kinda why immigration court is importantā¦to try and NOT send people on planes somewhere to be tortured and murdered.
I mean, the DP clause says āpersonsā and not citizens, so itās really not complicated. They choose not to read the worlds and admit what they mean.
FYI, Iāve seen several Fox News commentators laterally refer to videos of various acts of vandalism as āvicious and violent attacksā. Itās a fucking car. ETA: Iām specifically referring to vandalism of unoccupied vehicles.
This always cracks me up, because, as far as the actual stated purpose of tariffs, the more $ we collect simply demonstrates how those tariffs are NOT working. The purpose is to decrease import purchases, DOTARD.
Thatās correct. Also, as a matter of ādecencyā, the past 5 or so transitions of the office have included the incoming POTUS extending that protection for adult children for 6 months, which is allowed. Trump, because he is Trump just couldnāt do that. Itās about 2 months early and the only reason to pull the details is to give his base new stuff for their spank banks.
Under their view, I guess they work since most of that shit is incorporated through the 14th DP clause which applies to persons not citizens. MAGATās have famously ignored thinks distinction, but Iām sure they will suddenly become a huge fan of that language.
Gravell was supposed to be the top contender to replace John Carter in Tx31 next year. I wonder if he'll still run, or if this was some sort of plan to clear the field for one of Carter's grandkids or something. Iām going to assume that heās still the next Congressional Rep from District 31.
