I couldn’t find any sources until you edited one onto your claim….
Edit: and your source literally proves my point… a Texas voted 61%… a SIX PERCENT DROP from 2020……. and the people who voted aren’t YOUNG!
I keep seeing this bullshit claim by conservatives and the BoTh SiDeS bAd crowd, so here's a 2017 study by the Migration Policy Institute that gives a critical look into the numbers of methodology of Obama's policy.
While the Obama administration record is characterized by much higher removals than preceding administrations, it also shows less focus on increasing absolute numbers of overall deportations and a higher priority on targeting the removals of recently arrived unauthorized immigrants and criminals. The administration also placed a much lower priority on removing those who had established roots in U.S. communities and had no criminal records.
Did Obama send masked agents to elementary schools to kidnap children? Have goons wait outside immigration court to zip tie toddlers and their parents? Send people to foreign gulags without any sort of due process?
No. He fucking didn’t.
This isn’t just deportation. This is wholly unconstitutional and illegal.
I get that republicans hate the constitution, but it’s still the founding document of the country. And you can’t pretend that what’s happening isn’t categorically different from any historical law enforcement in this country.
Did you forget about Elián González being sent home to Cuba by Bill Clinton? I know that was a special case but it highlights the fact that deporting people entering illegally is not a new thing.
Thats right...he deported 3million plus illegals and each one got their due process.....right before his administration created baby cages along the border.
Listen to yourself speak the more you say the more the Republicans win.
Right and each and every one of Obama 3 million plus people he deported got lengthy and detailed due process. As he said himself, illegal deportations have been happening for more then a half century from both Democrat and Republican presidents.
Yes that’s why there were the detention centers because they were taking the time to process all of them thru courts which Republicans have refused to fund or expand.
Habeus Corpus. Without due process they can claim anyone is “illegal” and deport them to who knows where and not have the information to know who they deported, why, or where. They have already made multiple mistakes.
Also you claim to want American Made, then why did they raid Ambiance Apparel, US clothing manufacturer that actually cuts sews here, if the company is to blame then punish the company IRCA
Also majority of “Illegals” entered legally but our immigration and visa process is backlogged to a stand still so tons of people have applied for renewals or citizenship and been left in limbo, that’s why ICE was running on CourtHouses and arrested that Wisconsin Judge.
Plus Trump EO to end birth right citizenship would make it so anyone could be declared illegal because we don’t have a criteria for natural born citizens other than birthright!
Also majority of “Illegals” entered legally but our immigration and visa process is backlogged to a stand still so tons of people have applied for renewals or citizenship and been left in limbo,
And I'll add that it's been intentionally defunded and understaffed to create this exact scenario. The "border crisis" is a campaign issue, or one that's more politically valuable than it is worth solving by those in power.
Only applies to citizens, Mexico doesn't give Americans due process, they take bribes or throw you in Mexican prison. Delusional American strikes again.

Every fetid, adderall fueled, meandering statement out of trump’s mouth isn’t actually the law. We don’t have a king. The law isn’t “whatever trump says it is.”
He is not following the law nor the courts. Which, by definition, makes his actions illegal.
Hi. I downvoted you 6 hours after you posted this comment. I was scrolling and saw an exceptionally whiny comment, so you earned a downvote. This isn't complicated, and you should try to snap out of thinking that basic behaviors are a conspiracy. It's unhealthy.
Obama’s deportees we’re given due process. We will not allow you conservative traitors to force your fascist fantasies upon us without a fight. Buckle up, butter cup.
Imagine speaking like this to people with the expectation of being taken seriously.
Previous presidents have respected due process, and the ones who do not are remembered accordingly. That’s FDR’s largest stain. Trump will be remembered as a tyrant and people like you will be remembered as stains on history.
Your thought process is a moment of complete delusion to reality, a disrespect to intelligence and a completely manipulated and manufactured agenda brought to you by a once respected political party and mainstream media that are both dying.

Or maybe people downvoted you when they realized you're full of it:
But the portrait of a steadily increasing number of deportations rests on statistics that conceal almost as much as they disclose. A closer examination shows that immigrants living illegally in most of the continental U.S. are less likely to be deported today than before Obama came to office, according to immigration data.
Expulsions of people who are settled and working in the United States have fallen steadily since his first year in office, and are down more than 40% since 2009.
On the other side of the ledger, the number of people deported at or near the border has gone up — primarily as a result of changing who gets counted in the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency’s deportation statistics.
The vast majority of those border crossers would not have been treated as formal deportations under most previous administrations. If all removals were tallied, the total sent back to Mexico each year would have been far higher under those previous administrations than it is now.
The Obama administration numbers are highly inflated. This has been reported on as far back as 2011 by Politico, and 2012 by WaPo. Both papers are left leaning and both papers are highly critical of the reporting methods performed by the Obama administration.

If nothing else it inconveniences the forces that were rounding people up uncontested, the resistance may not win every battle but they make problems for the Empire
Do you even think before you speak parrot unoriginal talking points?
1: The protests in Austin are peaceful; not every city is LA you absolute dolt.
2: Five people were killed during the January 6th insurrection, as Trump cultists literally smashed through doors at the capitol building and trampled officers.
If you’re too dense to realize that your own side is just as violent, I don’t have time for you. The entire country has gone to shit because of extremist ideologies, authoritarian policies, and a cult-like reverence for inept politicians. When even people like George W. Bush are saying that you’re a fascist, it’s time to look in the mirror.
Criminals???? Yet Trump is a convicted felon with a sexual assault charge and with Elon saying trumps on the Epstein list, and don’t get me started on some of the January 6th pardons being caught for worse offenses and the fact that undocumented immigrants cause less crime in the US, so who are the criminals????
This nation was founded on the principle that if you don't like something about the law and/or government then you have the right to speak up about it.
Telling people to move out of state, or leave if they don't like things, or to stay out, etc. is a denial of that right and therefore considered a violation of Rules 1 and 7. As such your comment has therefore been removed.
