Trump has suggested that “homegrown” criminals who have been convicted of certain crimes should be deported, but the idea raises significant legal questions.
If an immigrant who the government claims is a gang member can be deported to El Salvador without any due process rights, then why not a U.S. citizen?
That was the nightmarish scenario immigration advocates and constitutional law experts were considering on Monday after Donald Trump again pushed a provocative plan to deport U.S. citizens who have been convicted of unspecified crimes.
Trump discussed the issue in the White House with El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, who has agreed to deposit people deported from the U.S. into a notorious prison.
Its really depressing that all the “resistance” we can offer is to pout and go “BUT THATS ILLEGAL” while our supposed opposition party votes to confirm every nominee and pass every barbaric bill by this admin…
We’re almost certainly fucked. It is depressing.
Optimistic person I see?
It’s like watching a crook invade a bunch of houses, vandalizing and arsoning, and all the police are doing is confirming that these actions are illegal
The opposition needs to be talking about a general strike.
Wait because they might actually go on strike and… like doing even less than before, you have to word it better!
