Technically an alien is any noncitizen. But since they are almost all here to work they are usually called "illegal migrants" since they tend to be "migrant workers". Very very few are people that are not here to work. And since they are willing to do the work that those who oppose their presence refuse to do their opposition to them is rather hard to understand.

Hmm, perhaps they might oppose them because they are racIsts?

No I'm not.


Gas prices are regional.



No it wouldn't.
No, you failed. There are minor local variations, but changes in prices are global in nature. When you can't even understand gas pricing,and complained about that you lose the debate when you support an action that would raise the price on countless goods. Texas has roughly 1.2 illegal migrant workers. How are you going to replace them?

It almost seems as if your opposition to these people is only due to racism, since your opposition is so inconsistent.

I figured it out. You just put up a big smokescreen by making a bunch of statements that aren't even in line with what we're talking about. Specifically, "prisoners".
No, you asked an improper question. You are projecting again since improper questions are usually asked by people that know that they are wrong. Why didn't you try to ask a question without a false assumption within it?

No, I don't understand any of that.
Where has Biden violated his oath???

Do you know the difference between an Invasion vs illegal migrant?

Hint: Russia has invaded Ukraine

Joe took an oath to uphold the Constitution and thus the laws of the land. Joe has violated federal law by releasing illegals into the United States instead of obeying the law and detaining them while they can be processed. As to your second question, yes I do.

I thought the court system determines if people who have commited crimes are detained or released, not typically the Federal Government.

Unless, of course, the president chooses to use his Pardon powers.
Did Biden pardon them?

Federal law requires them to be detained. They then have the possibility of a hearing by an immigration court. Joe broke the law by not detaining them, whether Joe pardons them or not or whether a court finds them guilty or not guilty in no way absolves Joe of his crimes. The president is not above the law. I'll give you another example. Joe is required to demand the release of U.S. citizens wrongfully held by a foreign government. If he just decides to just "turn the page" on Afghanistan and leave Americans behind he is in violation of the law, and again can be impeached for violating federal law.
Section 1732 - Release of citizens imprisoned by foreign governments, 22 U.S.C. § 1732 | Casetext Search + Citator

None of what you are saying here makes any sense.
Joe doesn't detain people. Presidents don't detain or release people.
Joe pulled out of Afghanistan because Trump made an agreement to pull out. Pulling out of Afghanistan doesn't make Joe a criminal.

President Joe Biden did that back in January.

I see reports of patriots who happen to be muslims fighting in the Ukraine army.

Not sure where the Jihadist reference came from.

This is all just odd to me. He is supposedly worried about illegal immigrants, but he will be offering transportation to migrants instead of illegal immigrants. If he wants to decrease the illegal immigrant population in Texas, then offer the illegal immigrants passage or at least illegal migrants and illegal immigrants.

"Because DHS has no plan for addressing the anticipated surge of illegal immigrants when Title 42 expulsions end, and because DHS is expected to release large groups of migrants into Texas communities, Governor Abbott has directed TDEM to charter buses and flights to transport migrants who have been processed and released from federal custody to Washington, D.C. To board a bus or flight, a migrant must volunteer to be transported and show documentation from DHS. Mayors and county judges can notify TDEM of any DHS-facilitated drop-off of migrants in their communities so that the agency can provide appropriate transportation." (above-cited article, my bolding)

"Differences Between Immigrants and Migrants
Here’s how you can distinguish the two groups of people with one major difference between their intent to move to another country.

  • A migrant moves to another country temporarily.
  • An immigrant moves to another country intending to settle there permanently.
  • Migrants can be people simply moving from one region to another within their country or people crossing international borders.
  • An immigrant is always crossing an international border and looking for permanent residency in another country.

Americans in Afghanistan had over a year's notice (Feb 2020 to August 2021 as I recall) that America was leaving and they had been told to leave the entire time. Those who stayed almost certainly wished to stay and we certainly cannot force them to leave.

Say, are American businesses, who have been hiring illegal immigrants for decades, in on this secret plan to "destroy small towns"?

Not a new move for many states. They give one way tickets to the homeless as well. California is a common destination. Our Father's will is the bleeding heart, those who show excessive sympathy for those who experience misfortune. Maybe it's best to get on the right side of this. Remember Lazarus and the rich man.
God bless the states who accept the suffering.
Blessings.

I think you’re misinformed on who is eligible for food stamps. In Texas, they are for people with kids and you have to be working or actively looking for work. No one is living off of food stamps.

More likely that those who encourage them to break our laws are those who hate America.

No, you asked an improper question. You are projecting again since improper questions are usually asked by people that know that they are wrong. Why didn't you try to ask a question without a false assumption within it?

Now you're giving improper answers. Are you not able/willing to give substantive answers when someone asks you a simple and straightforward question?
