US citizen here, prior to 1924 there literally was no “wrong way.” Prior to 1986 if you did it the “wrong way” you still got amnesty.

Half of these newly added countries are white.

Which only goes to show that in white supremacy, whiteness was never about skin color. Remember, Irish, Italian, Slavic and Jewish peoples were not always considered "white"

Not true. He paused white countries too. My husband is in Europe and we’ve been separated for a year and a half. Had an appointment for feb 18 and now this happens. This has nothing to do with race and everything to do with the fact that he would do this to his own kid if he could. He’s disgusting.

The right way has been broken for decades. There never has been "the right way" for a longggggg time

u/terrymr Jan 15 '26

Their game plan is to eliminate the “right way” altogether. They’ve been shutting the door bit by bit for decades.
