It turns out that there is a more humane way to deal with this situation. Trump's administration were purposefully going for cruelty by design. That's how Stephen Miller gets his joy out of life
The alternatives is thieves, LIARS, MURDERERS AND RAPISTS so you got um. It's easy to see priorities.

Joe and his Administration has lead the country backwards in many ways. Inflation is still too high, illegal immigration is a massive problem that Joe has done nothing to try to stop.
Trump built the wall and Mexico paid for it, remember?
The budget deficits and the National Debt is out of control.
Ronald Reagan proved that deficits don't matter.
- Dick Cheney 2002
Joe and his people have done absolutely nothing to try to correct these massive problems.
According to the GOP, there are are no such problems.

A neighbor pays $250 a month co-pays.
A friend could not afford insurance. He got Covid shot, then Covid.
His bill for ICU was $300,000.

I had a doctor before Obama Care. Now I have a nurse practitioner.
Obama Care is a failure for the middle class.
Anecdotes are not data.

Anecdotes are not data.
It depends on how many anecdotes there are. That is data.
We do talk, you know.

I have a friend in the VA who states he has a Pharmacist rather than a Dr.
Anyone could look up how many pharmacist and how many Dr.s in the VA.

Last I heard, all the army doctors had been sent down to the border. You could look that one up also.
Do your own research.
Me, I figure if I talk to enough people who all say the same thing, that is data, yes?

True and he's very forthright about it, lol
Not so certain about that.
The cases against Trump are so flawed the Courts would not entertain them if they were against anyone else.
All are most likely to end up in the same trash bin as the Colorado effort to remove him from the ballot.
Just a hate campaign against him.

Never could understand the absolute hatred of Trump until I saw the "foaming at the mouth" vitriol against Republicans that Biden spewed in SOTU. It is the Republicans the Democrat establishment hates.
That is the "revenge, retribution, hatred" that is poisoning America. And it is Democrats who are doing it.

You're statement doesn't make any sense.
Your priority is to save the children. Our priority is nipping it in the bud, not to put the children in that predicament at all besides the danger to all others and the country,
In essence you are throwing them to the wolves of other countries so all can be free with no restraints to run a muck. Sure, you care about the little children.
It's sure easy to discern the goats from the sheep. Keeping from calling them what they are.

1:37:58 "God, sometimes I wish I was cognitively impaired."


What does that even mean?
I did watch the whole State of union speech. . He does have a speech impediment. But made it clear. If you didn't understand what he was saying. Then I believe you do, but you're in denial. Or you refuse to except that the Republicans are the problem.

Children and people are humans, not goats or sheep. I'm saddened that you are confused by that.

What was your name in the States?

Crossing borders to rape loot and pillage or to evade the law has been a sport for a very long time.
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid come to mind.
Americans are easy targets. They are complacent, compassionate, and not able to defend themselves.
There is a belief that everyone crossing the border is a poor victim who just wants a job and a better life.
For many crossers, that may be true but there are those who come to rape loot and pillage.
There are mechanisms in lawful, legal entry that can make some effort to weed out the bad actors.
However, all the crossers are "poor pityfuls" to Biden and many Democrats.
Anyone who mentions there might be bad actors amongst those "poor oppressed" is labeled a racist and incipient Klan.
No country should allow undocumented illegals into the country.
Criminals, gangs and foreign military are border jumpers, historically.

To illustrate: Federal highway workers may be private independent contractors but those are government jobs.
Building infrastructure is a function of government, sure, but to call employees of private companies “government workers”, is a stretch.

Those jobs, including infrastructure, have always been called government jobs.
The jobs are contracted out by government and paid for, including the salaries with tax money = government
In days gone by they were called 'Public Works Projects"
I don't think you have ever worked in any of the jobs but that is exactly what they are called.
And it is exactly what they are.
It is a short term government job unlike a fireman or police man but that doesn't change who contracted and paid for the project.

Most people that cross the border are not looking for any trouble. In fact, they are less likely to commit crimes when in USA than the USA citizens.
