An Asian-American acquaintance of mine is a hardcore Trump supporter and I asked him the other day if he was worried about his family being deported. His parents came here from China and became citizens years ago, so he said he's not worried at all, because it's only "the illegals" that are being targeted. It made me wonder if the majority of Hispanic voters feel the same way since these recent ICE raids.

Ask him if his parents ever had any record with police (like speeding), from the stories that come out, it seems that anything that puts you on police record can easily be cause for deportation
Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, Abrego Garcia’s attorney, said he’s never seen a case in which the government knowingly deported someone who had already received protected legal status from an immigration judge. He is asking the court to order the Trump administration to ask for Abrego Garcia’s return and, if necessary, to withhold payment to the Salvadoran government, which says it’s charging the United States $6 million a year to jail U.S. deportees.
Trump-administration attorneys told the court to dismiss the request on multiple grounds, including that Trump’s “primacy in foreign affairs” outweighs the interests of Abrego Garcia and his family.
“They claim that the court is powerless to order any relief,’’ Sandoval-Moshenberg told me. “If that’s true, the immigration laws are meaningless—all of them—because the government can deport whoever they want, wherever they want, whenever they want, and no court can do anything about it once it’s done.”
So Trump is king now?
Fucking asswipe more likely.
It's not an error when it's your administration's entire policy...
It was a mistake, but he had every opportunity to prove he wasn't guilty of the thing we used as justification to mistakenly deport him. So really, it is kinda his fault. Oh and we can't get him back. Sorry bye. - ICE probably
That's fucking scary as shit....
You get grabbed and sent to this place, and are forced into these conditions,
They got Tuttle instead of Buttle.
Is this the guy they say they can’t get back? Or is that a different guy?
Shouldn’t it be pretty worrying that they can’t get someone back to correct a mistake? That should be pretty concerning even to people who would support this nonsense.
Yes.
But they didn't say they can't get him back. They said they won't get him back. The Trump administration argues that the courts cannot order them to bring him back to the US as he is not on US land.
My personal guess is that he's already dead. They put him in a prison with the same people who wanted to murder him.
Anyone see that movie, "Brazil"?
