Will “mass deportation” actually happen (1 Viewer)

[superchuck500]

It’s so repulsive to see people cheering for what is basically 80% the same thing as the Holocaust - different end result but otherwise very similar.

Economists have said it would tank the economy and cause inflation - notwithstanding the cost.

Is it going to actually happen or is this Build The Wall 2.0?

Here’s an npr article about Trump deporting people without any due process, or representation allowed. They have not been accused of any crime, nor given a chance to dispute that they are members of a gang. There are some boys aged 14 included.

We should remember that totally innocent people were sent to Gitmo, assumed to be gang members because of a sports-related tattoo.

Um, that’s now how it works

Am I correct in assuming there will be no consequences for this act? I do understand that the ACLU case will go forward, I’m talking about the defiance of this court order.

I think there will be consequences - what form they take we will have to see. I think we can expect that the judge will hold a hearing (or a written order requiring DOJ to explain) on what decisions were made about compliance with the order and who made those decisions. The range of sanctions is pretty broad and I’m not saying that we will find the result satisfactory but I think there will be some consequence.

Terrible is terrible no matter which administration it’s under and this is a terrible story

A country she’s not from, a country she’s never been to, she doesn’t know anyone, doesn’t speak the language, doesn’t have access to her medication

May have just taken her out back and put a bullet in her head because the end result will be the same

Yea, but you would not have heard this story if Trump wasn't president. This kind of thing happens at least dozens if not hundreds of times every year.

Let me rephrase. The consequences will be of no consequence.

The end of the judicial branch is nigh.

Here is another case of anyone with tattoos being labeled a gang member and deported without due process:

Horrifying photos and a short video of El Salvadore prison, where the guards wear masks so nobody knows who they are. Reminder, there are some 14 yo boys being held in this prison, and at least one man who is LGBTQ and was wrongfully identified as a gang member.

Trump administration deports hundreds of immigrants even as a judge orders their removals be stopped

The Trump administration has transferred hundreds of immigrants to El Salvador even as a federal judge issued an order temporarily barring the deportations under an 18th century wartime declaration targeting Venezuelan gang members.
