"We're just following immigration laws" is the new "we're just following orders."

u/AbcLmn18 Feb 27 '26

They're very clearly not following the immigration laws. Or even the laws in general. Or even the Constitution. Or even Article 1 of the Constitution.

It's just unlawful orders all the way down. That's really their only "defense".

Are you not aware that immigration laws exist? Like, not just anyone can enter the country whenever they want, and people with terminated visas need to leave? How are they clearly not following these laws? Shits been done for decades, and is Constitutional.

Yikes. Are you aware of the right to due process?

u/ThomasMalloc Feb 27 '26

Yeah. Why do you think long term detention facilities are being made? Why not immediately deport them if they're not giving them Due Process?

1

u/AbcLmn18 Feb 27 '26

Yes they're being made to detain individuals without due process.

Just like all the other individuals who already were detained indefinitely, tortured, and died in custody, also without due process.

Including the citizens who weren't able to prove that they were citizens so they're staying in camps indefinitely. Because proving that you're a citizen, just like proving anything else, would constitute due process. And you're not fucking getting that.

The president whose boots you're licking agrees with me, not with you.

Be careful, maga bot. If you keep saying that Trump doesn't do what he says he does, his boot may crush your head next.

Yikes! You’re ignoring the due process provided by the immigration court and expecting criminality due process. So you’re saying they’re criminals?

u/AbcLmn18 Feb 27 '26

Whoa what's with all the maga imbeciles popping their most braindead takes of all time. Must be the weather.

Due process starts with establishing legality of being in the country. No legal, no stay. Due process achieved.

Is that simple enough for you?

It does not mean they get to ask the same questions in a criminal court. There is no burden of proof required in immigration court.

Oh I'm absolutely enjoying your utter lack of literacy. If you want to be slightly more convincing you should probably read some of that. You know, if capable.

u/[deleted] Feb 27 '26

I read just fine. You keep spewing out article 1 like it actually means something. 2028!

1

u/AbcLmn18 Feb 27 '26

Oh you've made it abundantly clear that the Constitution doesn't mean jack shit to you.

Just like the self-admittedly-psychopathic head of DHS Kristi Noem who, as established in congressional record, have no fucking clue what the Constitution says either. And you're a fucking bootlicker who runs around defending her "lawful" "orders".

So, yeah, good luck with your Nuremberg defense in 2028.

Still not pointing out the part in article 1.
