A Counterintuitive Perspective on Deportations

Since Donald Trump has begun the push to deport illegal aliens, we’ve seen stories about families being broken up, and people losing their homes or being deported without having been arrested for crimes other than illegal entry. The stories are framed sympathetically to wring American hearts, but they don’t change the debate because you can’t run a country based on emotional anecdotal narratives. Still, that’s exactly what Democrats want the country to do. They’re suggesting that most of the 40 million illegal aliens they invited into the country over the last quarter century are doctors, engineers, or saints, and, therefore,

"because you can’t run a country based on emotional anecdotal narratives." That sums it up. And it also sums up why Democrats don't want people educated.

It is impossible and impractical to give 40 million illegals full deportation court hearings. That is exactly why Democrats and their judicial plants are insisting on it. Deport only those that have committed crimes other than coming here illegally. Simultaneously remove birthright citizenship and pass a law that being present in the country without proper authorization precludes any and all paths to citizenship and voting rights.

and! preclude all access to any government handouts; plus a force multiplier for any criminal acts, right down to parking tickets and overdue library books. Income tax evasion nets them hard time at hard labor.

End NOW congressional representation based upon occupancy instead of citizenship and tax remittances sent back to Mexico and other countries of origin so heavily that Mexico, in particular, will regret having sent its future abroad.

This is a doggone great list of to-do's. I especially like the cut-off-all-taxpayer-funding and 'we fix your broken arm and put you on a plane' approach on medical care. As long as no tax dollars are going to the churches, and they have to pony up their own cash for illegals, I think they would get sympathy press if they got prosecuted.... NGO's that are liberal (Soros) groups in church clothing excepted. And if Biden could get banks to defund second amendment businesses and conservatives, they sure has anything could get them to determine legal status before giving credit cards, mortgages, and bank accounts. Here's an idea: Let the banks do all that stuff but put that 50% remittance tax on the accounts and give half of that to the banks. They are more likely to enforce that if they have skin in the game.

It doesn’t matter if they’re “fine, upstanding” people. They’re NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE. They broke the law by coming here. They’re breaking the law by staying here. They’re breaking the law by working here. They ALL have to leave, one way or another. If they’re from Mexico, put them on the bridge at El Paso and point them toward Juarez, and tell them to start walking. If they’re from somewhere else, put them on a plane to El Salvador and let them find their own way home from there.

Add another to-do to the list: No K-12 education for illegal children. They are draining resources from our own children and lowering standards within classrooms. Some can't read or write in their native language, making it much more difficult to teach them to read/write a second language. Many of these illegals come from countries where they have to pay for K-12 education, why should they get it free here? Plus, legally, once we educate these children, they can't legally work here, so why?

Immigration hearings for illegals are not full court hearings They are "administrative hearings" during which a magistrate determines whether the person has a legitimate reason to remain. Until Biden overwhelmed the system with his multimillions of illegals, these were done at the border. Most failed and were deported forthwith. Skip the emotion. Deport them.

We know the caravans a few years ago were Soros projects. His people were even identified handing out prepaid cash cards to the lines of illegals working their way up to the border.

Holy cow! What a list! I particularly like taxing the amounts sent back "home" at 50 percent. That amount alone could fund a small country...wait--what?? What a concept! We're actually paying other countries to house their illegals at the same time those illegals are bleeding us dry?? In the South, we call them ticks.....

Yes, excellent list, 2 and 3 will go a long way to resolve the problem. 2. Eliminate all government funding for everything other than truly emergency medical care. After that care is rendered, deport them. 3. Guarantee jail time for any employer caught employing illegals.

Priority deportations should focus on those with criminal records, single young men from hostile nations, those who have not already applied for asylum, homeless illegals, and unemployed entrants collecting public benefits.

German finance minister Lars Klingbeil wrapped up his visit to Washington last week. His meeting with U.S. treasury secretary Scott Bessent centered on the EU-US trade deal. A dose of European moralism, of course, wasn’t missing. It was a meeting of political opposites. On one side: Scott Bessent, Wall Street veteran and committed to cutting America’s debt through radical fiscal consolidation, deregulation, tax cuts, and shrinking the role of the state. On the other: Lars Klingbeil, steward of the largest debt program in German history, embracing state intervention as economic salvation. More than just a polite first encounter, this was a friendly but stark ideological clash.

House Republicans subpoenaed nearly a dozen former federal officials and politicians — including Bill and Hillary Clinton — as well as records from the Department of Justice on Tuesday amid an expanding probe into the deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The officials — including former FBI Directors James Comey and Robert Mueller as well as six ex-US attorneys general — were compelled to testify before the House Oversight Committee. Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) announced the move days after DOJ officials interviewed Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year sentence in a federal prison for conspiring to sexually abuse young girls.

By the time it gets to Springfield, home of Abraham Lincoln, about 90 miles away, it takes a sharp turn to the east, reaching Decatur and finally Champaign, itself about 80 miles away from Springfield.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has decided to order a full military occupation of the Gaza Strip to force Hamas to free the hostages, according to local reports. The expansion of the war would see the military, which already controls about 75% of Gaza, take over the remaining areas and conduct operations where the hostages are believed to be held, the Jerusalem Post reported. The move was reportedly made without the input of the Israeli military’s chief of staff Eyal Zamir — with Netanyahu instructing him to fall in line or resign, according to the internal memo sent out.

In a stunning firsthand account, a whistleblower has exposed how senior intelligence officials under Barack Obama manipulated analysis, silenced dissent, and strong-armed subordinates to produce a politically loaded assessment linking Donald Trump to Russian election interference. According to the whistleblower, senior intelligence officials, including then-DNI James Clapper and CIA Director John Brennan, pressured analysts to endorse conclusions they didn’t agree with and marginalized anyone who raised objections. The now-infamous January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment, the whistleblower says, was crafted to match a predetermined political narrative: that Russia interfered in the 2016 election specifically to help Donald Trump.

OAK RIDGE, Tenn. (WATE) — Wednesday marked 80 years since the United States attacked Hiroshima, Japan with an atomic bomb. One group gathered in Oak Ridge at the main entrance of the Y-12 National Security Complex to remember the victims and destruction of that bombing.

Australia’s state of Victoria on Thursday announced that more than 40 machete disposal bins will be available at police stations across the state to allow citizens to safely get rid of the weapons without a penalty before the Sept. 1 ban begins.
