Haiti has been violent for centuries, ask the French about it … but that didn’t stop Slick Willy, a right wing Nazi by today’s loony standards, as he wasted no time keeping them out and sending them back

During the summer of 1994, the U.S. Coast Guard and Navy interdicted over 25,000 Haitian migrants during Operation Able Manner under the Clinton administration. Rather than being granted asylum, most were forcibly returned directly to Haiti, while thousands more were detained at the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay before eventual repatriation

During the violent years of 1991-1994, many thousands of Haitians crowded into unseaworthy boats in an attempt to seek asylum in the United States. Continuing the policy of his predecessor George H.W. Bush, the Clinton administration responded to this massive wave of immigration by interdicting the refugees at sea and repatriating them back to Haiti. This Haitian refugee policy went through many changes and legal maneuverings in U.S. courts in response to a public relations campaign by human rights activists. Eventually more than 30,000 Haitians were detained in a legal limbo at the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

Why does the idea of human rights and protection from violence and suffering require a PR campaign? Shoukd hose all be big fans of human rights?
Just some history for you

So why don’t one of your beloved Scandinavian socialist countries take over Haiti and give them citizenship

Or France

and vacation time there.

Conan then went to Haiti and posed for the infamous “beautiful country” photo while sipping a drink out of a coconut.

Now, Dems and the media are telling you it would mean suffering or death for anyone to be sent back there.

Their narrative is wholly dependent on what is deemed to be politically useful at any given time.

Everyone knew that Trump was going to lose on ending Birthright Citizenship by Exec order. Kavanaugh left the door open when he ruled with majority, but said Congress could pass legislation withholding citizenship from anchor babies, but couldn‘t do it by executive order like Trump did.

Never even heard of this case, but SCOTUS ruled 6-3 that POTUS has carte blanche to clean house by firing senior bureaucrats from alphabet govt agencies. Sounds yuge!
very famous Humphrey’s Executor Rule. This whole concept of “Power” has been fought over for nearly 100 years, going all the way back to Franklin Delanor Roosevelt, where a large slice of his Power was taken away. He fought to regain it, even wanting to “pack the Court,” but was unsuccessful in doing so. This Decision gives tremendous additional Power back to the Presidency, where it belongs. It is an Honor to be the sitting President who, after all these years, WON this very important, and hard fought, Case.”

“We had other good Victories, too, and we also had the Birthright Citizenship loss, which we will work to correct in Congress, but the big SLAUGHTER, was SLAUGHTER. The Republican Party was treated very fairly by the United States Supreme Court. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

So. The significance of Slaughter (I edited my above post to add ‘senior‘ before bureaucrats) is FAR more significant than a 5-4 ruling that Trump can’t fire a particular Fed Reserve Board member.

lol that’s WHEN a donk POTUS comes in. It might be a LONG time. If the donks don‘t win in 2028 they will be screwed in the EC. After the 2030 Census, in the 2031 reapportionment, the red states will gain seats, and the blue states will lose. And the donks won‘t be able to rig it like they did in 2021.

Sure, if everything stays the same but the more voters get sick and tired of trump's policies and schizophrenia the more votes Conks lose and the more the maps will change. That's why he and MAQA Republicans want so badly to restrict voting.

"Donks rigged the 2020 elections" is 100x more of a HOAX then russia collusion. There is about as much proof of that as there is that Conks rigged the 2016 and 2024 elections.

Kavanaugh claimed that the Constitution's meaning has changed because "significant illegal immigration into the United States is a new circumstance that was largely unknown as of 1868".

Thomas claimed that the 14th Amendment's citizenship provision applies only to the children of people who are "domiciled" in the US and not to the children of "temporary visitors." This theory appears to have no basis in the text of the Constitution, which, again, refers to "jurisdiction" and not domicile.

How could any justice who considers themselves an "originalist" make these claims? What would Scalia say?

How would MAQA react if Kavanaugh's logic were applied to the 2nd amendment - "semiautomatic rifles, high-capacity magazines, school shootings, and mass public shootings are new circumstances that were largely unknown as of 1791"?

They overdid the mail in voting …. Joe Bozo was an afterthought until they shined him up and rolled the old wax effigy down into his basement campaign HQ…. It was a clue he wasn’t of sound mind and you applauded him like a circus clown

Now he might of won anyway but no way he was supposed to get 15 million more votes than the Messiah

Can you prove that I "applauded him like a circus clown" or are you pulling sh!t out of your a$$ again?

biden got that many votes not because he was a good candidate but because he wasn't trump. Just like trump won in 2024 because he wasn't biden. We're looking at 12 years of absolutely horrid Presidents.

I'm able to criticize trump and biden while you are unable to really criticize trump because they might kick you out of the trump/MAQA Qult.

Your silence on Biden was the deafening applause

Fawning in all of your spoiled self appointed genius that Trump lost so much so you and millions refused to see who Joey Rotten was

The point is Biden should’ve been hated as much as Trump from the get go

Remember Joey never had a real job ever
