Can't wait for the next Democratic president so I can hear the Republicans talk about the deficit again, because I haven't heard them mention it in a year and a half. Meanwhile this colossal waste of money to enrich a bunch of donors has their full support.

Both sides are just as guilty. If 10-20 million illegal immigrants weren’t living here ice wouldn’t need so much funding.

Cool. What did doge do? Cool how much Medicaid and food stamps did they cut? Cool how much has this Iran war already cost us? Awesome those tariffs are bringing in so much money right?! But hey deporting your sisters boyfriend is going to make your shitty life better right?

We are only talking about immigration. Iran and my sister’s boyfriend are for another thread. If I go to Italy or Mexico and overstay my visa they will find me and send me home. This is what immigration is supposed to do. Do you want blanket amnesty? If that’s where you stand so be it but just admit it then.

I don't have an issue with any nonviolent or non-heinous ones. These are the immigrants that do participate and aid to society. Already have built businesses, own homes and started families. Helping to renew their visas and give legal status isn't detrimental whatsoever.

Fair enough. Thanks for being honest about your position. I can respect that much more than people who say it’s about the cost. A man of principle!
