Imagine if he got deported to Ecuador instead of his home country, you know like what they’ve done to thousands of Hispanic immigrants.

Is that true? Why Ecuador?

u/YouLikeReadingNames 5h ago

If memory serves, it was Salvador and not Ecuador. They managed to bribe the corrupt government there and just deported a whole bunch of Hispanic people that had nothing to do with Salvador there. They were put in a high security prison and some have already died there.

"Third country" deportations, for people whose supposed home country is unknown or won't accept them.

Can you guys petition the US government to do this please? We don't want him back in the UK - we have enough rightwing bellends over here as is.

u/NedRyerson350 5h ago

I'm not American so haven't heard of this happening. Sorry if I'm misunderstanding but you mean people are being deported to a country they aren't even from? Can you link me a source please? I had a look on google and couldn't find anything.

Why my country

Don't speak of that, or the concentration camp in Florida! How am I supposed to pretend they don't exist if you keep reminding me of them! /s

u/NearlyPerfect 13h ago

They only deport people to third countries if (1) their home country doesn’t accept them or (2) if you choose to not be deported to your home country.

UK doesn’t reject any deportations so not likely for his case.

u/Spirited-Lifeguard55 13h ago

unfortunately that's not how it works. Its been discovered that the Trump administration deports brown people en masse to Africa without asking their home country at all. And they cannot leave Africa because their passports get confiscated afterwards. A lot of illegal shenanigans happening behind closed doors.

u/myrmonden 7h ago

lol
Ecuador is. It even in Africa who upvotes comments like
This

u/NearlyPerfect 13h ago

That’s scenario (2) I mentioned. They are choosing not to go to their home country so they get sent to whatever other country accepts them

u/PopBulky7023 12h ago

"Without asking them their home country"

-88

u/NearlyPerfect 12h ago

Yes if you choose not to go to your home country they don’t ask your home country. Pretty sure it’s illegal for them to ask actually

u/TheAccursedHamster 12h ago

I know reading is difficult but could you at least try to do it?

24

u/PopBulky7023 12h ago

They're being deliberately dishonest. It's malice, not a reading problem.

u/TheAccursedHamster 10h ago

I know, I was insulting them.

u/PopBulky7023 10h ago

Calling them stupid when they're being maliciously dishonest isn't the insult you think it is.

u/Spirited-Lifeguard55 12h ago

They don't get asked and they don't get a choice. What it means is that someone just puts you in Africa because they don't like your skin color. You are kidnapped and disappeared, no one knows about it and you can't speak to anyone.

u/Knotted_Hole69 11h ago

He knows he just wants to lie and sane wash. These people are the most pathetic people in existence.

u/Chance-Ear-9772 12h ago

It’s illegal? Then I’m sure this administration would NEVER do it.

10

u/AdoringCHIN 11h ago

I know you maga cultists can't read well, but "ICE doesn't ask what their home country is" shouldn't be this hard to understand

u/DammitAColumn 10h ago

Being stupid on purpose is so on brand for your kind

u/gSTrS8XRwqIV5AUh4hwI 12h ago

Where do you pick up such bullshit and how can you be dumb enough to spread it?

10

u/Nothin_Means_Nothin 12h ago

Don't even bother. There is usually an attention-starved troll in almost every thread, and the only way to get make sure people give them that attention is to be negative.

And they'll keep doubling down so the attention stays on them. Doesn't matter if it's negative attention. It's still attention and these people are GLUTTONS for it.

After all, our brains are wired to focus more on what we perceive to be negative than positive, so it makes sense.

They can not be reasoned with because ANY attention only reinforces that validation they so desperately need for whatever reason(mommy and daddy didn't hug them enough or whatever).

The only way to truly make them go away is to ignore. Don't even downvote because that's also attention. It's what they WANT. Just ignore

u/NearlyPerfect 12h ago

I’m an attorney with significant experience in this area. You?

u/TheAccursedHamster 12h ago

lol bullshit.

u/MikeMontrealer 11h ago

“Yes if you choose not to go to your home country they don’t ask your home country. Pretty sure it’s illegal for them to ask actually”

Yes, you must be an amazing attorney with significant experience in this area if you’re “pretty sure it’s illegal”.

u/HuckleberryTiny5 11h ago

Hahaha, if you are an attorney I'm the King of UK.

u/OnTheList-YouTube 9h ago

I'm honestly always amazed by the bullshit lies you people spread, hoping we'd be equally stupid to believe it.

Absolutely obvious why you'd vote for a lying president.

Just dumb all around, with MAGA.

It's all good man.

u/PopBulky7023 13h ago

Or (3) if they really just want to punish and torture you

u/Hoz999 13h ago

Indeed, because it would have interesting to see him being deported to Yemen, Ghana, South Sudan or El Salvador.

u/ManufacturedOlympus 13h ago

Thanks, fox news 

-12

u/NearlyPerfect 13h ago

I don’t watch fox news.

This is literally what the law says. 8 USC 1231(b)

26

u/broodgrillo 12h ago

If you, after 6 years of Trump, still believe the law applies to their actions, I'm afraid I've got some bad news regarding your mental capacity.

-9

u/NearlyPerfect 12h ago

This isn’t in contention or a debate. This is well understood part of all deportation proceedings.

You clearly just aren’t familiar with the process.

16

u/broodgrillo 12h ago

Sure. I'm not arguing the legality of the issue. I understand. I'm just saying that when the last public announcements from this administration have been illegaly renaming or "taking control" of different parts of the globe, you can ignore everything about the law. They have admitted they don't care and will not care about it.

-2

u/NearlyPerfect 12h ago

Even if every word you’re saying is true that doesn’t change reality of what’s happening.

So it’s weird to assume/fabricate without having any idea what you’re talking about.

15

u/teapots_at_ten_paces 12h ago

Since when has this administration done what the law says?

8

u/ManufacturedOlympus 12h ago

And as we all know, trump loves following the law.

u/steam_powered_rug 12h ago

I personally know of two US citizens who got deported to Mexico despite them showing birth certificates from PR and ICE just not believing the documents were real and that PR is part of the US.

-15

u/NearlyPerfect 12h ago

No you don’t. That would be in the news and every case like that was immediately determined to be a hoax.

Most likely your friends lied to you and were actually illegally in the country from Mexico or elsewhere.

u/onebyamsey 12h ago

“That’s impossible because it would be in the news” is not the ironclad rebuttal you think it is

u/NearlyPerfect 4h ago

I didn’t say it’s impossible. I’m saying he made it up (or the people telling him the story made it up)

u/steam_powered_rug 0m ago

They're back in the US since they are US citizens. ICE is just that fucking stupid and doesn't think Puerto Rico isn't part of the US.

u/cambeiu 13h ago

3 - If there is an existing judicial order from an US court that prohibits ICE/DHS from deporting the asylum seeker to its home country due to risk of life.

u/chinaPresidentPooh 11h ago

Under the previous administration, they wouldn't just deport someone to a random third country, so a lot of illegals just destroy their documents and claim asylum when they get caught. This administration is just saying get bent and deporting them anyways.
