  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

That's "or 10 years immigration law experience". This is no different than requiring a traffic court judge to have "10 years of traffic law experience" before being hired. This part is not about service in appointed government positions, just any legal experience of 10 years in the area of immigration law. That could be a DOJ staffer who has worked prosecuting deportation cases for 10 years or an immigration lawyer working for defendants for the last 10 years.

The Trump appointed military immigration judges now have current experience in dealing with immigration law. In a related Democrat proposal. Democrat Raja Krishnamoorthi re-introduced a bill to DOUBLE the cap on H-1B visas. Given that Democrats are in the minority party, I suggest some of these Democrats work with Republicans to come up with bipartisan legislation.

We had that a couple times already on immigration, and Trump has blown up the bipartisan deal each time.

" Any lawyer" with only two weeks of immigration training can now be an immigration judge? Though drawing from military and federal employees, soon enough it will be open to anyone say...an ambulance chaser? This is truly the beginning of corrupting the judiciary process not to mention those seeking a fair trial.
Where do I sign up!

Which has zero to do with my post. If you want to publish this feel free to not respond to me.

Actually it does, the purpose of both is legislation to have or keep more non-citizens in the country.

It's sad they had any Republicans on that ridiculous bill that promoted more, not less, illegals into the country. That's why it was already dead on arrival in the House. Don't you remember they even falsely claimed Joe could not act to stop the flow of immigration without new legislation?

A paranoia I spoke nothing about. I was cleaning up your mal-understanding of the text.

It's more about control than paranoia -- to fundamentally change America and create a one party-system.

You are describing a paranoid fantasy pushed by Trump et al.

Their fear is loss of control, they were telling people what kind of car they could drive, even what pronouns to use, and fear has changed to desperation.

None of which has a thing to do with immigration.

It has nothing to do with the legal immigration process, everything to do with skipping the line of legal immigration in a quest for power and control.
