Lawful channels allowed them to come to America. Now many face deportation to countries they say they won’t survive.

We knew this was coming. Remember when Vance said in a debate that he didn't consider them legal because he didn't like the program that made them legal? Not long until citizens are declared illegal

They've ramped up taking citizenship lately too :(

There's one upside to this:

From a legal standpoint, if regular people can be de-legalised, so can be billionaires.

Anyone who amasses more than 1bn should have their citizenship revoked, assets and properties confiscated, and dropped onto an all inclusive resort island where all their needs are met, for life. Put 1% of their wealth aside in a fund, the interest on that fund would easily cover all operations regarding the island, the rest, use it to support those most in need.

The problem with that is the billionaires make the rules

From a legal standpoint, billionaires and politicians can already be arrested and jailed just like us plebs, so I don't see how adding a new law would help even things out.

How about instead of the island just into the ocean

So much for the 'just do it legally" bullshit crowd

  • So much for the "free speech" crowd
  • So much for "2nd amendment" crowd
  • So much for "Christian values" crowd
  • So much for the "American values" crowd
  • So much for "home of the brave" crowd

It has always been a "fuck you, I got mine" crowd pushing faux moral supremacy

There are good people, fighting the system, raising awareness, looking out for their neighbors, but it seems very few actually care to act.

Isn't selfishness the greatest American value?
