And likely repeat rapist of children and women. I'm told it's an extra bonus the coyotes enjoy.

I live in San Diego, and I've seen it personally. They steal our women and they rape our chickens.

Sex trafficking appears to be the big play now, MS13 a big player there.

All these ICE raids get attention but how many food processing plants, construction companies and restaurants are being raided? I think Trump is hands off this just like other administrations. Too many businesses would fail.
Clearly the most dangerous immigrants are the ones who write Op-Eds in college newspapers.

Trump is doing EXACTLY what he said he would do: Going after the the criminals first, especially those who have who have committed crimes convicted or alleged to have committed them, especially violent crimes against American citizens, and especially women and children, and also the spreading Fentanyl among our population. Next might be those who commit other felonies, like vehicular manslaughter, or robbing stores or citizens at gunpoint, etc.

Those who are working in jobs for pay of which you speak, are usually not committing these types of felony crimes. They are here to make enough money to support their families, living either here or in their home country. I've known a number of these people. They are mostly the kind of immigrant that America has traditionally wanted to welcome to this country. Many want to work here, raise a family here, and become citizens. They would be low-hanging fruit for Donald Trump, because you can see them in front of plants or stores where they might be able to solicit work, or you can see many of them openly working at construction sites, and it would be the easiest of all groups to arrest and charge with violating our laws. Unlike some of our previous Presidents, who executed raids against construction sites, food processing plants, mostly for political gain, so they could say they were dealing with the illegal immigration problem, not to mention our legislators who passed laws against private citizens for hiring illegal immigrants.

Trump is more interested in getting the bad guys out of here. I would bet that he will offer amnesty to many who have jobs and/or pay taxes here, but that will be later. Not now. Now we need to get the bad actors among the immigrants the hell out of here, to back from where they came.

The felony crimes are a ruse . It's always the same- majority coming here for a better life and willing to work harder than "Americans"

Democrats should just be honest with themselves and with the American people and run on wide open borders if they truly believe this will help not only the country but people around the world.

Trump is doing what he said he would do. It is only the Trump supporters who lied to themselves because they didn't want to consider themselves the un-American fascists that they are who said Trump would do differently. Trump said he would criminalize and deport legal residents all along. Some Trump supporters still can't admit it to themselves.

It's like Ernest Hemingway said, "some people don't know they are fascists but will find out when the time comes".

We're becoming a Latino nation. Democrats want to accelerate that by bringing tens of millions of illegal aliens in, give them Amnesty, and run the table for decades.

The problems with this lust for power are multiple. We're bringing in tens of millions of illiterate-in-two-languages folks at the same time automation and AI are illiminating low-skilled jobs. Our social services are already overwhelmed, not to mention 300,000 missing children. Cartels flood our cities with cheap, powerful drugs which fule drug bazaars )aka homelessness). Decades ago the Heritage Foundation estimated that an illegal immigrant cost us $400,000 lifetime - that's probably one million today. We're hurtling towards becoming a Socialist nation, which brings many other problems. And now Houston and New York will allow the Muslim call to prayer five times a day broadcast over their cities.

California shows us what Democrat leadership brings. Poor roads, bankrupt finances, corrupt officials, Super Fires, oil refineries leaving, meaning we will solidify our claim for the most costly energy. Wait until they shut down Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant - Newsom only extended it five years. Tesla will flee, too. Twelve hours to get into the ER, most high school graduates aren't proficient in English or Math. Indians and Chinese are the new "elite" ruling class. We'll be coastal elites and the poor.

Yes artificially inflating numbers of those groups is bad when it's used for a purpose, it's not a natural immigration flow. But you know that and are being obtuse. The democrat party has stated their goal is to make it a minority white country. The democratic party is an extremist party now.

I thought Trump was making historic gains with non-white populations? Sounds like a bad plan by the Democrats.

If the concern is with too much immigration taking up too many resources or whatever, then just make that argument. If you're worried about Indians and Chinese being our "ruling class" in America then I think you're making a different argument.

BTW, the Indian, Asian, and Latinos I've worked with show virtually zero concern over our self-identified "disadvantaged" groups. When a potential return of affirmative action was back on the ballot, Asian Americans held car rallies to oppose the ballot measure.

I suppose I am talking to a brick wall at this point, but here that are basically arguing on the one hand that Democrats are trying to force more racial diversity in order to win more votes, but then on the other hand that Democrats' policies are unpopular with those voters. So what is the worry here? Even if that's the plan it doesn't seem to work.

Bringing in tens of Millions of illegal Latinos isn't diversity. And most are illiterate in two languages, which explains part of why California is #48 or #49 in various educational scores.

Democrat policies have destroyed the middle class. Now importing an underclass while automation becomes more common and Democrat policies eliminate service jobs.

Doesn't address my point, but okay. Seems like you're just shotgunning "immigration is bad" arguments at this point. I will once again leave you to it.

"The Trump administration is offering a cash stipend and travel home to undocumented immigrants who willingly leave the United States, officials said on Monday, its latest effort to increase deportations.

The policy, which will offer $1,000 and a flight home to each immigrant who leaves, is part of the Trump administration's push to persuade immigrants to deport themselves as a way to help the president meet lofty immigration promises. "

I thought he was going to reopen Gitmo. Instead he's running AirBandB promotions.

It is only the Trump supporters who lied to themselves because they didn't want to consider themselves the un-American fascists that they are who said Trump would do differently. Trump said he would criminalize and deport legal residents all along. Some Trump supporters still can't admit it to themselves.

It's like Ernest Hemingway said, "some people don't know they are fascists but will find out when the time comes".
Yeah, and Carl Oglesby, President of Students for a Democratic Society 1965-66, one of the most important leaders of the New Left and the Anti-War Movement wrote in his book "Containment and Change", that the real enemy of the Left is not the Conservative, but it is the Liberal.

The country was at the time run by Liberals, Democrat politicians who sent thousands of our youth to die in the rice paddies and jungles of Vietnam. The Left realized they had to take the government, the universities and the K-12 schools away from the Liberals, and today we have the result. The Left has infiltrated all of these institutions, and now controls many of them.

So the corollary to Hemingway's quote, might be "some people don't know they are communists, but will find out when the time comes."

Pogo Possum of cartoon fame once said, "We have met the enemy, and the enemy is us!"

Trump is doing EXACTLY what he said he would do: Going after the the criminals first, especially those who have who have committed crimes convicted or alleged to have committed them, especially violent crimes against American citizens, and especially women and children, and also the spreading Fentanyl among our population. Next might be those who commit other felonies, like vehicular manslaughter, or robbing stores or citizens at gunpoint, etc.

Those who are working in jobs for pay of which you speak, are usually not committing these types of felony crimes. They are here to make enough money to support their families, living either here or in their home country. I've known a number of these people. They are mostly the kind of immigrant that America has traditionally wanted to welcome to this country. Many want to work here, raise a family here, and become citizens. They would be low-hanging fruit for Donald Trump, because you can see them in front of plants or stores where they might be able to solicit work, or you can see many of them openly working at construction sites, and it would be the easiest of all groups to arrest and charge with violating our laws. Unlike some of our previous Presidents, who executed raids against construction sites, food processing plants, mostly for political gain, so they could say they were dealing with the illegal immigration problem, not to mention our legislators who passed laws against private citizens for hiring illegal immigrants.

Trump is more interested in getting the bad guys out of here. I would bet that he will offer amnesty to many who have jobs and/or pay taxes here, but that will be later. Not now. Now we need to get the bad actors among the immigrants the hell out of here, to back from where they came.




The felony crimes are a ruse . It's always the same- majority coming here for a better life and willing to work harder than "Americans"
A ruse you say? Tell that to the mothers whose daughters were raped, beaten, and murdered by some of these illegal criminals. Or to the mothers and fathers whose children died of Fentanyl overdoses, drugs brought here by cartels and mules entering illegally.

As for illegal immigrants willing to work harder, I can't speak for all of them, but I have known some. As a construction engineer for huge projects to small, I have witnessed them work, and have worked alongside them. I used to say the average illegal Latino construction worker could do the work of 3 American workers, and probably the work of 5 Union workers, and maybe 10 government workers. Big city government workers being the slowest laziest of all. IMO.

Hard-working illegals often get robbed on the street by other illegals who are criminals. One of the biggest fears of the illegal worker is that the often illegal contractor who hired them will run off at or near the end of the job, disappearing, while still owing the worker lots of back wages. They prefer working for an American boss, because he is less likely to screw them, These workers come here with nothing but the clothes on their back. They don't know how to use many of our tools. They train themselves and when they get enough money, they buy their own tools. They buy a car or truck, and usually keep their tools in the vehicle. The cars are broken into, and the tools stolen. Then the immigrants have to start all over again. This time they will try and rent a storage locker as a safe place for tools. Eventually they may find steady work. I knew one construction worker who took photography night classes at a JC, bought 2 cameras, and started a business doing wedding photographs and videos on the weekend. He worked 7 days a week, week after week. Once in a while he would get a day off, and sleep 24 hours.

Other illegals with less ambition got paid, got drunk, and the money they made seldom got back to the wife and kids in Mexico. Pretty soon they find out the wife and kids were living with another guy.

I felt sorry for most of them, and wished there was a way to sponsor them. I once asked them if they knew of a way I could help. "Well, you could adopt us." We all laughed at that one.

Tool theft is big, same for some professional kitchens.

The cost / benefit analysis is different for legal immigrants vs illegal, a fact the Left purposefully muddles.

Democrats should just be honest with themselves and with the American people and run on wide open borders if they truly believe this will help not only the country but people around the world.


We're becoming a Latino nation. Democrats want to accelerate that by bringing tens of millions of illegal aliens in, give them Amnesty, and run the table for decades.

The problems with this lust for power are multiple. We're bringing in tens of millions of illiterate-in-two-languages folks at the same time automation and AI are illiminating low-skilled jobs. Our social services are already overwhelmed, not to mention 300,000 missing children. Cartels flood our cities with cheap, powerful drugs which fule drug bazaars )aka homelessness). Decades ago the Heritage Foundation estimated that an illegal immigrant cost us $400,000 lifetime - that's probably one million today. We're hurtling towards becoming a Socialist nation, which brings many other problems. And now Houston and New York will allow the Muslim call to prayer five times a day broadcast over their cities.

California shows us what Democrat leadership brings. Poor roads, bankrupt finances, corrupt officials, Super Fires, oil refineries leaving, meaning we will solidify our claim for the most costly energy. Wait until they shut down Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant - Newsom only extended it five years. Tesla will flee, too. Twelve hours to get into the ER, most high school graduates aren't proficient in English or Math. Indians and Chinese are the new "elite" ruling class. We'll be coastal elites and the poor.

So to be clear, you think it is self-evidently bad if we have more Latinos and Asians in the country.


There you go again.
So if that's not what you mean, why bring up Latinos, Indians, and Chinese? What was your point?
Yes artificially inflating numbers of those groups is bad when it's used for a purpose, it's not a natural immigration flow. But you know that and are being obtuse. The democrat party has stated their goal is to make it a minority white country. The democratic party is an extremist party now.

"The democrat party has stated their goal is to make it a minority white country."

Can you point out where the Democratic Party has ever said that? Somewhere official? The party, not just some random Democrat county commissioner in West Sewer Seepage, Ohio.

What has the "white, male, english speaking" got to do with "Trump is a racist"?

Where is your evidence to back up your saying "Trump is a racist"?

Is he more racist than Obama was?

How did the racist Trump get more Black votes than any Republican in 50 years (Newsweek, Nov 9, 2024)?

Well that's ironic!!

I bet you wish it had been 150 years.
That way he could be your slave.

That's why you had to do a pendulum swing to Birtherism Trump, right?
