The Trump voters in this and other stories are not so different from more famous Trumpists who've become his victims. Somehow they always manage to convince themselves that they'll be the exception to how he treats people. New examples keep getting added to the list, and still they believe.
The chaotic clown car reality of Trump 2. becomes more apparent each day. The majority of Americans depend on the courts and Congress to save our tradition of democracy from this delusional, cognitive declining individual.
You would expect the world’s greatest deal maker to have a handle on simple math.
In order to deport all 14 million illegal immigrants, ICE would have to identify, arrest, conduct hearings, and fly 10,000 people per day, 7 days a week for four years (1,460 days). That would require 45 max 737s (without an empty seats) deportation flights per day.
at his "address to Congress" Trump said we didn't need Immigration Reform Legislation like the Democrats said, we just needed a "President"....presumably one who is ruthless and strong who can use fear to stem the flows across the southern border. Well he's wrong isn't he. It's much more complex than that. There is another side to the coin. Our freedoms are being abused, our economy will suffer from lack of workers and prices will rise in a slower growing economy. With robust immigration our population will grow and have a younger profile. Without robust immigration our population and economy will stagnate and then rapidly decline.
Everything out of The Don's mouth is either projection or a bold faced lie. A lot of us saw this coming and now a lot more are feeling the cruelty and chaos....
1) It never ceases to amaze me how many people say that they thought that Trump was only going to try to deport illegal aliens with criminal records. That was never going to satisfy the bloodlust of the Trumplicants. And how did they think that was going to work? Did they think that ICE was just going to hang around police stations and jails and grab people there? That wouldn’t get him nearly enough bodies. Deporting all illegal aliens is just about all Trump talked about during the campaign (that and how Biden “ruined” the great Trump economy).
I don’t know that anyone thought that they would be literally grabbing people off the streets. But no one should be surprised that it was going to be more than just criminal illegal aliens. And no one should be surprised that the wrong people are sometimes being arrested. You can’t do this so fast and with such big numbers without making lots of mistakes.
2) I didn’t really KNOW this until reading this article, but I figured all along that Trump had given ICE quotas. And that’s why they’re grabbing everyone they can get their hands on. They know if they grab the wrong person, they won’t get into trouble. But they will if they miss their quota. They’re just responding to the incentives.
There have been a few cases where ICE has arrested American citizens. As more and more of these cases get reported, with any luck, agent orange's ratings will go further into the toilet.
As for the excuse that he can't give everyone a hearing, maybe he should be hiring judges instead of firing them.
Thank you for this reporting and all the other reporting on this American tragedy. I grew up in SoCal, with close friends in high school who worked the orange groves before school. I’m sickened by the rhetoric of the privileged and uneducated who do not value the economic and cultural value of immigration. We must not let the violation of due process go unpunished. From the people who are abducting, to the transport support personnel and especially to the First Felon!
There is a Bulwark tip line somewhere, but I can't find it. I know this is the wrong spot, and I will keep looking. However--
There is a Venezuelan man named Beker Renfigo that was arrested in Whitefish, Montana, by what was a combination of the Whitefish PD, Customs and Border Patrol, and ICE from a routine traffic stop, and he is possibly now be in Washington State. He has protected status under the CHNV humanitarian parole program.
“What is remarkable about Trump’s first 100 days is that he took the two issues he was strongest on—the economy and immigration—and completely destroyed his credibility on both,” Worst is yet to come. Donald "The Beast" Trump is building a wall once again. Colossal tariff wall that is the beginning of the end for the system of down. At first the beast will pull the plug out of the global economy. The worst financial crisis of human history will pull a swarm of the banks underwater and the bank run begins. Then the beast will collapse a mountain of debt shattering the backbone of the monetary system causing a systemic risk to realize. Finally the beast will cast American citizens into a system slavery under the name of Ronald Wilson Reagan, just to "honor his legacy" count the number. After the destruction a new world order will be established in the US. And the Golden Age begins from the ruins of the world wide collapse. All of the system slaves will love it. No more cash - just digital transactions. No more traditional criminal activity. No more tax evasion. No more transactions without the "all seeing eye". Outcasts will hate the world without freedom, hope and privacy. To cover up the mess and distract the public by smoke and mirrors, the beast will engage in a war with Iran. Lies and deceit, corruption and decay, dancing on the graves will continue. Until; Black hole sun, won't you come, won't you come... I want to play a game. Time has come to opt out of the empire of filth. Live or die...
Where may we access the video of the Hispanic men cited above?
Thank you again for continuing to highlight this ongoing travesty!

What happened to defamation? It would seem that Fox,
Vance and all the others who say that Garcia is a convicted gang member should be liable for lawsuits.

Maybe he’s not that great a deal maker?
The Time Magazine transcript of the 100-days interview is bizarre. The questioner conducting this interview did a great job.
I wonder, will any of his base see it? Probably not.

I'd say better late than never, but electing Trump made everything late.

i will never not be frustrated by Trump voters who are shocked! that he is doing exactly what he said he would do. Out loud. For months.

Thank you! There is at least 1 news outlet reporting on it now, too.
