Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Summary

Vivek Ramaswamy outlined a “pragmatic” immigration policy, proposing to deport undocumented immigrants who have committed crimes, aiming for what he claims would be the “largest mass deportation in history.”

He advocates cutting all federal aid for undocumented immigrants, including funding for sanctuary cities, hoping this will lead to “millions of self-deportations.”

While he didn’t rule out deporting Dreamers, Ramaswamy emphasized adherence to the law as the child of legal immigrants.

When a second generation immigrant calls for deportation of immigrants, you have to wonder how much they hate their parents.

Jesus fuck I hope Ramaswamy gets deported in this insanity. It would be hilariously appropriate.

[–] RizzRustbolt 3 points 2 months ago

That's why he's trying to get the DHS Sec job. To avoid any such slip-ups.

Yay, we're back to the "self-deportation" dream. Can't wait for a thing of strawberries to cost $50 b/c there's nobody to pick them.

Here was me hoping to never hear from this douche nozzle again.

^ That's me whenever I see something from any of these winger jackholes: donvict, his family, Gym Jordan, Gaetz, Bobo, Empty G, Roger Stone, Stephen Miller, Bannon, Flynn, and on and on. So many weird assholes in that cult that calls itself a political party.

Vivek will enthusiastically support literally anything. Him supporting anything shitty shouldn't be newsworthy.

[–] FuglyDuck 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I dunno. Pretty sure trump will deport him, and Vivek will support it. And that should be rather well reported. Mostly for the comedic irony,

May the leopard eats his face in Minecraft.

[–] CharlesDarwin 4 points 2 months ago

Can Vivek go first?

[–] eran_morad 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

LOL, maybe he'll be in the seat next to mine on the cattle cars.

proposing to deport undocumented immigrants who have committed crimes

Forgetting to mention that the American Fascist Party considers BEING an undocumented immigrant a crime, meaning that it's a proposal to deport ALL undocumented immigrants, which would necessitate first rounding them up and putting them in concentration camps.

Ramasmarmy better read the "first they came for" poem..
