I see more benefits than you on amnesty, but that's fine; we can actually have the conversation around what should be done, because we both understand that SOMETHING needs to happen.You can draw a straight line from that 1986 bill to the problems California had today.
Reagan, with a sweep of a pen, granted citizenship to 3M illegal immigrants and turned Cali from a Republican state to the sanctuary state they are today. This is precisely why I care about immigration so deeply- illegals are counted on the census. The census leads to congressional and senatorial power for these states. Dumping 3M voters in Cali is how we got here today, and why the left is coordinating violent riots all over America a the thought of removing illegal immigrants.
Reagan wasn't a conservative, and the Amnesty Bill is only second to the Flores Agreement in net-negative impacts on immigration in this country. The Flores Agreement enabled the human trafficking of children on a disgusting and grand scale. Here is the OIG report on the February '23 findings.
Bottom line- 291,000 unaccounted for kids.
Flores is a great example of "we wrote the rules but won't follow them in practice".
Releasing the kids so the metrics look good but failing to actually ensure the process is followed and appropriately documented should be fucking criminal, but obviously nobody involved(politicians/feds) cares enough to do anything.
My absolute favorite video today. I was told that not listening to BIPOC individuals was racist and bigoted... is that not true, chat?
Latte liberals. These are also the people who like to show up and start antagonistic, violent, and/or destructive acts. From there, mob mentality takes over and people get fucking stupid.
Remember the talking head that was for the (MN?) stuff in 2020 but got upset when it came towards their gated community? That's these dweebs.
