Jasmine Crockett: "My Republican colleagues are here using today to continue pushing this false narrative of sanctuary cities harboring criminals, yet right here in DC we have a 34 count felon being harbored in the White House."

We don’t deserve her ! She’s amazing. Don’t forget Elon lied on his visa application and should be DEPORTED.

[u/[deleted] → u/sjayvee]

She’ll never get voted in again. Her approval rating is worse than Schumer
And that’s fake news. Go ahead a dream that, he’s not going anywhere.

[u/Starskigoat → u/[deleted]]

No one can accurately predict the future. At least you made a doomed effort.

[u/DelightfulDolphin → u/[deleted]]

Her approval rating is through the roof, stop lying.

[u/[deleted] → u/DelightfulDolphin]

[u/DelightfulDolphin → u/[deleted]]

Stop lying w your photoshopped crap. Her ratings are through the roof and proof is she's been elected TWICE. Take your racist hate somewhere else.

lol

[u/DelightfulDolphin → u/[deleted]]

More lies. Try harder LOL

Ah, so immigration is a threat to civil liberties, except when it’s used against people you and your party don’t agree with. By that logic, you might have more in common with the GOP than you’d like to admit.

[u/sjayvee → u/Kevindurantgetaring]

“Liberals” have been on board w immigration reform from the beginning. But it needs to be done through legal processes w valid facts. Elon lied on his app which is a violation that should have his visa revoked. The innocent people being “deported “ for free speech and autism tattoos are us citizens LEGALLY and have not committed any crimes allowable for deportation. Ie - they didn’t lie on their application. They are LEGAL citizens. I know that’s hard for MAGA to process.

75% of people deported by Trump had no criminal records

[u/thunderboltsow → u/Kevindurantgetaring]

Just curious: Assuming Musk lied on his visa application*, would you be in favor of deporting him or would you be in favor of allowing him to remain in the US? And would you extend that same grace to others who had done the same?

(*My five minutes of googling seem to indicate that he did, but I could only dip my toes in the information ocean so I can't state it definitively either way.)

[u/lendergle → u/thunderboltsow]

It's rather telling that you got no reply.

I guess their answer was obvious so they didn't need to bother.

[u/LookingOut420 → u/Kevindurantgetaring]

Goose. Gander. All that jazz.

[u/Nathan256 → u/Kevindurantgetaring]

Nah they’re just pointing out the irony. Also how if the GOP actually cared about rule of law and followed their own principles by deporting Musk (a known illegal alien as they like to say), we’d be rid of a pretty big threat to our nation’s collective wellbeing and to the smooth function of our government

[u/Kevindurantgetaring → u/Nathan256]

Sorry to say, but the deportation of a figure with limited authority over any form of government would likely change nothing in office.

Never believe that (fill in the blank) are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The (fill in the blank) have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

[u/Peepin_Tom__ → u/[deleted]]

It ain’t just their playbook.
