    Do Experts Think Trump’s Plan To Bring Grocery Prices Down Will Work?

    Which rules? If you're talking about the ones passed in 2024, those are a good example of not letting private industry socialize their costs. https://www.epa.gov/newsreleases/biden-harris-administration-finalizes-strongest-ever-greenhouse-gas-standards-heavy

    US citizens jailed in LA Ice raids speak out: ‘They came ready to attack’

    The biggest problem for years has not been one of enforcement, but underfunding of a vastly over-stretched and poorly designed immigration system. When you have thousands of people waiting FOR YEARS for an immigration hearing, that's a problem. When Congress tried to address this in a...

    Chicago police refused to turn over 92% of illegal immigrants to ICE under Trump.

    I wonder how many times that needs to be repeated before it is understood.

    Kill Jews, Get Your Own State

    Well that is demonstrably untrue. A two-state solutions was on the table and the Palestinians walked away, twice; Arafat in 2000 and Abbas in 2008.

    Kill Jews, Get Your Own State

    Jews in the US have more to fear from right-wing terrorists than from Muslim terrorists.

    Chicago police refused to turn over 92% of illegal immigrants to ICE under Trump.

    Overstaying a visa and residing in the United States is not a criminal act. You don't go to jail for it. You get deported. Labeling unauthorized immigrants as criminals is Orwellian propaganda, used as a blanket to treat criminals and non-criminals alike.

    US citizens jailed in LA Ice raids speak out: ‘They came ready to attack’

    And I stand by it. Turning people away at the border IS border enforcement. But somehow that doesn't count in your book. And no, it's not necessarily easier. And I critiqued his policies in post #86. I don't think what he's doing is making the situation better. He has constructed a problem...

    US citizens jailed in LA Ice raids speak out: ‘They came ready to attack’

    I am still unclear on 1) what you think the Trump administration is doing better than previous administrations - and what data you have to support that; and, 2) why you approve of their methods.

    US citizens jailed in LA Ice raids speak out: ‘They came ready to attack’

    One of the many reasons Trump's deportation policy has been such a joke, and a shitshow, is that he claimed to be doing what was already done under Biden and Obama, namely prioritizing deportations of individuals who posed a nat. sec. threat, had criminal records, and recent arrivals. But this...

    US citizens jailed in LA Ice raids speak out: ‘They came ready to attack’

    Sorry, what's your point? The same numbers are included regardless of administration. And people caught at the border runs against the comment I was responding to, namely, "Obama and Biden opened the borders and let people flood in." The borders aren't open and people aren't flooding in if...

    US citizens jailed in LA Ice raids speak out: ‘They came ready to attack’

    Ignorance is not a good look. Obama and Biden deported as many or more individuals as Trump, and they managed to do it without raising havoc and resistance. But havoc and resistance are the goals of this administration. Look at the stats...
