There have been very few complaints from Democrats over all the lockdowns and craziness that accompanies it. They have mostly taken the side of Progressive (nice Fascist) Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer. They seem to cheer when paddle boarders are detained, skate parks are filled with sand, parties are busted, churches shut down and pastors arrested, and Other People’s businesses are closed. They denigrate people protesting to reopen America. They love the notion of snitch lines. But
Trump Is Using the Pandemic to Flout Immigration Laws
For more than a month, under the guise of fighting the coronavirus, the Trump administration has used the nation’s public health laws as a pretext for summarily deporting refugees and children at the border.
This new border policy runs roughshod over legal rights, distracts from meaningful measures to prevent spread of the coronavirus and undermines confidence in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the nation’s top health protection agency, which delivered the directive that imposes these deportations.
The administration has weaponized an arcane provision of a quarantine law first enacted in 1893 and revised in 1944 to order the blanket deportation of asylum-seekers and unaccompanied minors at the Mexican border without any testing or finding of disease or contagion. Legal rights to hearings, appeals, asylum screening and the child-specific procedures are all ignored.
More than 20,000 people have been deported under the order, including at least 400 children in just the first few weeks, according to the administration and news reports. Though the order was justified as a short-term emergency measure, the indiscriminate deportations continue unchecked and the authorization has been extended and is subject to continued renewal.
Same people complaining about “rights” for illegal aliens do not care about rights of legal U.S. citizens
The deportation policy was issued by the C.D.C. based on an unprecedented interpretation of the public health laws. The policy bears the unmistakable markings of a White House strategy imposed on the C.D.C. and designed to circumvent prior court rulings to achieve the administration’s political goals.
The Border Patrol is carrying out the C.D.C. directive by “expulsionâ€Â of anyone who arrives at U.S. land borders without valid documents or crosses the border illegally, not because they are contagious or sick but because they come from Mexico or Canada, regardless of their country of origin. The deportations violate the legal right to apply for asylum and ignore the special procedures for unaccompanied children.
The same people who want illegal aliens given free access to the U.S. are the same ones who want you locked down in your home.
Despite what the administration says, the order is not part of any coherent plan to stop border travel or prevent introduction or spread of contagious people or the virus, which is already widespread in the United States. Nothing limits travel from Mexico or Canada by truck drivers, those traveling for commercial or educational purposes, and many others, including green card holders and U.S. citizens. And the restrictions that exist do not apply at all to travel if it’s by airplane.
You mean people who are lawfully entering the U.S.? Huh.
The administration’s order is like a bull’s-eye drawn on the side of a barn around an arrow that’s already been shot. The targets are refugees and unaccompanied children, and the policy is designed to thwart their rights.
Just call them illegal aliens. Who have exactly zero rights until they enter the U.S. illegally. Then they have a right to a hearing for asylum. For which under 6% actually qualify for, even under Obama.
The United States and the rest of the world face a pandemic of unknown scope and duration that has led to the greatest social and economic disruption in recent history. But the dangers we face are not limited to the pandemic alone. The risk is also that governments will abuse the emergency to abandon the rule of law and adopt discriminatory measures targeting those they disfavor.
Perhaps Mr. Lucas Guttentag, who was a senior counselor at the Department of Homeland Security and Dr. Steffano M. Bertozzi, dean emeritus of the School of Public Health at the University of California, Berkeley, could write a missive on the way the rule of law has been violated in places like California, NY, NJ, and other states run by Democrat governors. Really, federal law targets illegal aliens. It’s right there in the federal statutes. If they want asylum, let them apply at a U.S. embassy, rather than sneaking in.
This is what Democrats care about: illegal aliens. With everything going on with Bat Soup virus, do you think citizens really care?
nation’s public health laws as a pretext for summarily deporting refugees and children at the border.
Yah mean like what OBAMA DID for 6 years before it turned out he was FOR illegals after their chief think tank came out and said WE WONT SURVIVE AS A PARTY WITHOUT IMMIGRATION IN MASSIVE AMOUNTS.
The issue then becomes well these folks are fleeing areas of the world with authoritarian governments so the DEMOCRATS have to make them believe the GOP are authoritarians. Enter the 50 centers of the world screaming Racism, Nazism, Fascism, Xenophobia, Homophobia, White privilege. None of it is true. But a peasant from Honduras doesn’t know the political landscape, much like 50 center who just makes shit up.
As with the POOR in GHETTOS they rely on keeping the voter STUPID and on the public dole for their existence. STFU immigrant and poor and vote for DEMS because the GOP are (enter slur here).
This new border policy runs roughshod over legal rights,
LOLOLOL. While REAL AMERICANS ARE LOCKED IN THEIR HOUSES, THE CONSTITUTION IS SUSPENDED the ILLEGALS are having their ???????????RIGHTS???????????? violated by the pandemic.
Nuff Said. Leftists are simply using Saul Alinsky tactics keeping throwing shit at the right, make them swat flies. Its what 50 center does. John was particularly a useful idiot in that regard. Make them swat flies, when they think they got it under control hit them with 20 more things.
50 center has been mostly silent as the news about Obama knowing about the Flynn investigation comes to light. He is getting his next 20 flies lined up to throw at the right to distract from the pile of steaming communist shit that is the Democratic party.
At one “open” office building where they test for SARS-CoV-2 daily and have access to top-flight, free medical care it’s been revealed that multiple workers tested positive for the virus. This “open” office building is, of course, The White House.
The most secure building in the world can’t control this virus but every insurance company, accounting firm, university, church, ad agency, law firm, grammar school, senior center, and baseball crowd is supposed to.
Dozens of children are showing symptoms similar to toxic shock syndrome or Kawasaki disease, with associated mortalities.
Good luck, everyone.
You are the “lock down” kid. The only way to get past this virus is to allow people to develop resistance. They can’t do that locked down. “The most secure building in the world” has NOTHING to do wit a disease, moron.
Dozens of children are what? Link. That’s ridiculous. You want to lock down every body. Well, not everybody, just the Trump supporters. You asked me in an accusing manner if I would be responsible for people getting sick visiting my wife’s spa. Is Target and Walmart, every grocery store in the country, every drug store, Cosco, and all those talking heads in Washington being held responsible? Of course not. We are responsible for ourselves. Nobody is forced to come to the spa to get their hair or nails done, or have a defoliation, or a mud bath massage or hair removal. They make the choice which is what a FREE society is all about: personal choice.

You Democommies are nothing but hateful liars.
Trump 2020 We need to eliminate the enemy within.
Good. It shows hes not a coward like 50 centers. Hiding in their basement with their 5 months of food in their big houses they bought with CAPITALIST PIG MONEY.
We need herd immunity not wait for a vaccine or we will all die.
50 center wants people to die. The MORE THE MERRIER is the new Democratic talking point.
DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR OF NY CUOMO is taking that to heart, forcing nursing homes to take back into their homes those still testing positive for the virus and now in the last day or two they had to add 1700 deaths to their rolls as the nursing homes have been ravaged by AWESOME LEFTIST POLICIES OF ONE OF THE MOST LEFTIST AND PROGRESSIVE STATES IN THE UNION.
Yeah….beg CUOMO to run….His record against Trumps. Cuomo even taxes the front line workers coming from out of state, because its what the left does. TAKE and tell you to fuk off.
ELON MUSK threatening to move to Nevada or TEXAS because the state said open up and the county in which his business operates told him to shut down.
LOLOLOLOLOL…..When he said Im gonna leave California the left told him to GO FUK HIMSELF. Him and all 10000 HIGH PAYING JOBS>
I don’t want them locked down either. I want them to be free to go home, where they will all be safe from Corona.
So, the left want to trample on our freedom of assembly and religion, both enshrined in the Constitution of the United States, but deny the authority of the federal government to regulate immigration, which is also authorized by the Constitution.
If the left believe we have to limit personal contact, why would they want to admit more people, making personal contacts more likely?
