Trump opposition grows as he betrays U.S. service members' immigrant family members
Trump's cruelty and racism apparently knows no bounds. He concentrates on capturing and deporting vulnerable people who are no danger to anyone instead of his promise to concentrate on deporting immigrants who have actually committed crimes and pose a real danger to society. He does this only because these people who are beloved family members of law-abiding citizens, some of whom are active-duty military honorably serving their country, are easier to catch than the actually dangerous immigrants he promised to target. This heart-breaking 4:52 video should leave anyone who has watched it feeling outrage! There is no moral or legal excuse for these tactics!
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Easier to catch, indeed! Deporting undocumented immigrants with criminal convictions takes time. He's not interested in justice. He's interested in numbers. I read or heard that he instituted quotas in an attempt to outdo the deportation records of Biden and/or Obama. He doesn't give a damn about law, order, justice, or mercy. He's interested in arm wrestling his perceived political enemies to the ground.

He lacks the intellect to do it so he hires masked gestapo to literally do the wrestling for him by proxy.

Remember the old saying, "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them will BS"? That's him several times over.

Exactly! Beloved family members who aren't posing a danger to anyone (especially spouses and children) of U.S. citizens should never be targeted at all by ICE and deserve to be fast-tracked for application for legal citizenship.

It's easy to catch someone who has an appointment. Lazy coward that he is.

What are the current betting odds that MAGA types will care at all when watching the video of the father of 3 US Marines, with no criminal record, who was working and paying taxes, being ruthlessly beaten by Trump's thugs?

I mean, they didn't care when a US citizen child was kidnapped, held as ransom, and then trafficked to another country as revenge so... yeah...

There are greater odds that Putin will end the Ukraine war himself and offer reparations.
We can't take farmers and take all their people and send them back because they don't have maybe what they're supposed to have. They get rid of some of the people who have been there for 25 years and they work great and then you throw them out and they're replaced by criminals.

Most of them won't care unless it happens to someone they know and love. Even then, some of them will still double down on defending Trump and his actions. How did it happen that so many Americans unquestioningly buy into such injustice and cruelty? I have heard interviews of some MAGA-ites who unabashedly declare they would continue to support Trump, even if they knew for a fact that Trump was guilty of shooting random people who walked by on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Because ignoring the courts is very Constitutional ..
Whistleblower complaint alleges top DOJ official Emil Bove said he was willing to violate court orders

Bove has been nominated by President Trump to fill a U.S. appeals court vacancy.

A top Justice Department official nominated by President Donald Trump to fill a federal appeals court vacancy allegedly suggested the Trump administration should defy judicial orders that sought to restrict their aggressive efforts to deport undocumented immigrants earlier this year, according to a whistleblower complaint from a fired DOJ career official.

The 27-page complaint, provided to the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Justice Department's top watchdog and obtained by ABC News, alleges that Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove and other top DOJ officials strategized how they could mislead courts regarding the administration's immigration enforcement efforts and potentially ignore judges' rulings outright.

The allegations from Erez Reuveni -- who was fired from the department in April after he appeared in federal court in Maryland and admitted to a judge that the government had mistakenly deported accused MS-13 member Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador -- were delivered to the Senate on the eve of a confirmation hearing for Bove to serve on the powerful 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

"Mr. Reuveni's disclosures detail violations of law, rules or regulations, and the abuse of authority by DOJ and White House personnel, as well as the creation of substantial and specific health and safety threats to noncitizens," Reuveni's attorneys said in the letter.

"These high-level governmental personnel knowingly and willfully defied court orders, directed their subordinate attorneys to make misrepresentations to courts, and engaged in a scheme to withhold relevant information from the court to advance the Administration's priority of deporting noncitizens," the letter said.

They just deported a 55-year-old Purple Heart veteran back to Korea who was shot twice in the line of duty. He came here when he was 7. Evil.
