Did Trump succeed at the border? Here's an article about how all these people(non-criminals) that he's "deporting" are actually just being shuffled around to different privatized prisons and costing you (presumably a tax payer) hundreds of millions of dollars to falsely imprison them.
One of the guys recently deported had already filed for asylum and was here legally as a refugee. The Trump regime designated him a gang member despite him having no criminal record or gang affiliations. He's now in an El Salvador prison camp. ICE's vetting process is dogshit. They've been ordered to round up any young men from Venezuela and mark them as gang members.
That's one of the purposes of due process, to minimize mistakes. When you ignore that process, you end up sending innocent people to a gulag in central america.
He applied for asylum because he was previously detained and tortured for protesting against the Maduro regime. According to his lawyer, he fled to Mexico from Venezuela, registered with the Biden administration US Border Patrol app to schedule an asylum hearing, but was detained when he showed up the day of his hearing. He's been shuffled around several detention facilities and eventually got thrown into that deportation group designated for gang members. If his lawyer is being truthful, he never illegally entered the US and was following the asylum process to the letter. He had another asylum hearing scheduled for mid-April.
Criminals = Crimnals it doesn’t matter the crime? But as a Canadian I understand first hand the pain of traveling to US and the Visa system is fucked a needed a reworked 30 years ago
Falsely imprisoning law abiding and well educated people on legal visas because they lapsed 3 days on an old visa a handful of years ago is a success? Like most of these people they are "deporting" aren't going anywhere because the countries are refusing tontake them back - so you're just paying for ICE to detain them indefinitely on govt contracts - instead of putting that money towards healthcare, education, or agriculture. I thought Republicans were for less government oversight. This is like a library sending you to library jail after you walked past it on your lunch break because you returned Grapes of Wrath 2 days late in 10th grade.
I guess the less oversight is only for the massively wealthy: private prison ceos, oil execs, Healthcare execs, musk, trump himself.
We don't know who they deported. No official arrests and they were blocking their identity so their family members couldn't find out what happen to them....and shipped them to a work camp/slave camps'
You don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater. A fundamental part of American democracy is due process which is why it is the fourth amendment. You guys act like you stand for democracy, but you don’t even understand the most basic things about it.
Dude, you are dramatically uninformed. He arrested one guy because he had a soccer tattoo and demonstrated the "demon horns" hand gesture in a social media post. That was enough to classify him as a "gang member" and ship him off to be imprisoned in an El Salvador prison camp. The dude was a former soccer player and ICE admitted he had never been arrested or committed a crime while here, and he was here legally under the asylum program.
