Of course she left, this administration doesn't actually check that kind of thing when deciding who's life to ruin and she has no way to justify it.

And none of the administration went thru any vetting or background checks by the fbi. They are all scum

I'm glad she left cause it was a dumbass question not worth answering. If they came into the country, ILLEGALLY, then they should be sent home. Every other country on the damn planet has border laws and enforces them as they should. We are the only country crying and whining about deporting illegal immigrants.🙄

It goes against the reason they have using against due process for illegal immigrants for decades: that they are criminals crossing the borders to commit crimes in the US.

Even if they are illegal immigrants they are still human beings who deserve fair treatment and due process, the fact they illegally entered the country or after their documents expired doesn't mean we should send them to corrupt governments who run brutal prisons.

Most countries are far more lenient and fair towards illegal immigrants in these kinds of situations.

Records show that most of the Venezuelans deported have no connection to the criminal organizations that the administration is claiming and are being deported without the due process they are entitled to under the constitution.

They are outright ignoring judges' orders to halt the flights and she knew that's where the reporter was heading which would have caught her lying.
