in many cases sponsors cannot be reached because they themselves are illegal aliens and do not want to be reached by federal authorities Read more

No, the problem of the State referring to human being as “animals” is an issue. The problem of the State classifying an entire set of people as
“animals” is an issue. Read more

Well, it still is a problem to call people animals. Animals don’t act with premeditation, so the trial you discussed is an act of depravity, but it’s still human. It’s different when you’re using a loose, conversational metaphor, but as an official decree from the White House, it plays on racist fears that then can Read more

Let’s not forget that MS-13 is a gang of the United State’s own making, which started in the US and then spread because the members were deported.
Also, let’s not act like MS-13 is some boogeyman waiting to kill all white people. I’d bet my white guy privilege that more Americans have been killed by angry white dudes Read more

I ain’t no lawyer, but if I had to guess, I’d say this might cause some legal issues for the administration. If the plaintiffs can prove that the decision to revoke TPS was based on fraudulent reasoning and that the real motivation was general anti-immigrant sentiment, they may be able to get it delayed or reversed in Read more

Press/cameras were not allowed to be present when Mandy Manning delivered her acceptance speech. Read more

Another thing to note is that if you read the indictments, you’ll see that the alleged “caravan members” were actually arrested in two groups, one group of 18 who were detained on Friday and included 14 Central Americans, 3 Indians, and one Mexican, and one group of 7 who were detained on Sunday (and who only two are Read more

“I think the provisions of his bill go way too far,” Gene Mills, president of the group told the AP. Read more

This is really condescending and oversimplified and completely unhelpful. I’m a producer in Los Angeles with insurance and my out of pocket for my twins was still almost ten thousand dollars. Maybe that’s not a lot of money to you but I sure did everything by the books and it’s a lot of money to me to be expected to Read more

Speaking of pinching loaves: Read more

You...don’t? It’s pretty basic. If zero immigrants were here illegally, the doctors would prioritize care. If ALL immigrants were here illegally, the doctors would prioritize care.
Since doctor’s don’t care about status, for treatment, training the immigrants to only immigrate legally is meaningless for doctors. Read more
