immigration issues

"Trump further diminished the U.S. in the eyes of the world by expanding his travel ban. This new 'African Ban' is designed to make it harder for black and brown people to immigrate to the United States. It’s a disgrace, and we cannot let him succeed." --Joe Biden Feb 1, 2020 U.S. imposes...

Like the Title says, what is the UKian perspective regarding the difficulties apparently being experienced by EU citizens, being held in Detention etc?

Firstly, immigrants keep the gene pool healthy and most positively contribute economically and socially to their adoptive countries. But, extreme poverty, conflicts and dangerous political environments create refugees. There are people smugglers, there's modern slavery, there's an illegal...

With the pandemic here, this would be the time for her to shift priorities and think about defending the Homeland first. You'd think.

I'm no fan of the RC church, but I'm even less so of the racist Trump administration. The priest at the local church has been ordered to be out of the country by tomorrow. He's a native of Ghana, and has been here since 2014. His religious visa has expired. He and the Church have been working...

From News Now Finland, Finland is to take in 'five more' asylums seekers rescued from one of the Mediterranean boats departing - typically - Libya. It is demanding to know what controls are in place to ensure other EU countries do their share. So what are the rules for migrants rescued at...

Surely you have heard about it. I find it so disturbing I don't even want to link to youtube videos of it. Trump decided to go after Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and his crowd, ever lowering themselves to new levels of deplorable, started chanting "Send her back! SEND HER BACK!..." And here we now...

It appears as if Trump is going to declare a National Emergency to get his wall. I'm confident that the courts will rule this does not constitute an emergency. But no question, this will be a Constitutional crisis as the power of the purse belongs to Congress. Trump and the GOP are being...

So, looks like we are full speed ahead with creating concentration camps. Trump just announced a new policy of capturing and then not releasing immigrants. Just keep collecting them. Sooner or later the right will find convenient quarries where they can be killed.

I'll just leave this here for starters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53ObMpGWm18 Ann Coulter: They're child actors. Me: You're Satan.

This article makes a very persuasive case why the federal government (and certainly not Trump by his own power) can't try to force state and local authorities to help them enforce immigration laws...

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-canada-refugees-idUSKBN15W2GN I believe that the US has the same sovereign right to control immigration as any other nation, only allowing it in the numbers, at the times and places of our choosing. I am for careful vetting of those we do allow to come in. But...

http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/ICE-Agents-Arrest-Men-Leaving-Alexandria-Church-Shelter-413889013.html What's next? ERs? Soup kitchens/food banks? I'm for imigration control but this breaks the rules of human decency.

Lacking documentation!? I though citizens weren't required to carry documentation.

Well, that didn't take long. Obama's actually had vacations in Hawaii that lasted longer than his respectful silence on his successor's policies. 11 days. That's it. George W. Bush has kept his mouth shut for over 8 years now, and Obama lasted 11 days. And when he opens is yap, he even...

Is this a fallacious argument? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPjzfGChGlE I think this video is a Snow Job, trying to defend a Straw Man. Straw Man is that he says "Some people believe US immigration is a tool to help relieve poverty in the world" (I have honestly never heard or read that...

...and Worked Illegally Not to mention Donald profited by cramming a bunch of them in an apartment and taking a ridiculous cut of their modeling fees for rent. http://m.motherjones.com/politics/2016/08/donald-trump-model-management-illegal-immigration

This is pure gold: Melania and her bio states that she arrived in USA in 1996. Unfortunately, the nude photos published by NYP show that she was working in USA in 1995, which would make her an illegal immigrant, since she did not have a work visa at the time...

See, they're just like us. When they're not groping and robbing and sexually assaulting or defecating in swimming pools they're attacking people on the street with machetes. Yeah! One Million More! Feel The Cultural Enrichment!

I though this is something to chew on http://www.wbap.com/2016/06/09/valedictorian-admits-to-being-illegal-immigrant/ MCKINNEY (WBAP/KLIF News) – The valedictorian at McKinney Boyd High School dropped a bombshell in front of thousands of people at a graduation ceremony this week. Larissa...

This is the first time I remember that two presidential candidates and a former presidential candidate criticized a policy of the administration of the current president of the same party. Do you remember other instances of this? Clinton, Sanders reaffirm opposition to Obama immigration...

Under Obama's administration illegal immigrants will receive the earned income tax credit. http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/amnesty-bonuses-tax-code-illegal-immigrants-receive-earned-income-tax-credit_841496.html A mother making 15K a year with 2 kids gets about 5K from the government. I...

The Republican plan to overturn President Obama's executive actions on immigration was to attach legislation overturning those actions on a bill funding the Department of Homeland Security. To the surprise of no one with a brain, this plan failed. After passing in the House, the bill was...

Apparently non-Christian immigrants are a threat to this nation. At least, according to one politician. Looks like this is one candidate I definitely won't be voting for in the upcoming election. From an article in my local newspaper: Complete article...

Well, it appears the continued conservative outrage over Obama refusing to use his magic President powers to rid the world of Ebola continues. Now Rush Limbaugh is alleging that Obama is trying to import the disease into the USA proper as revenge against slavery....or something...

Remember the incessant calls from John Boehner about how "we're broke"? http://washington.cbslocal.com/2012/12/11/boehner-longer-the-white-house-slow-walks-this-process-the-closer-we-are-to-going-over-fiscal-cliff/ Apparently, that was so last week, because now presidential hopeful and serial...

No, I'm not going to suggest we eat illegal immigrant children, an idea I saw today on a Fox News message board. However, the Fox comments got me to thinking. One called for sending illegal immigrants to GITMO. It sounded kind of mean, but then I wondered: What if Congress and the president...

I'm currently watching The Border (reality show), with all the border security agents trying to catch illegal immigrants and drug-dealers. Seeing the extreme amount of risk and effort the immigrants go through to try and get into the US, such as crossing the fence in the desert miles away from...

Dutch anti-Islam (anti-EU, anti-Polish) politician Geert Wilders is visiting Australia. What have the Australian members of the forum heard of this, and how much do they care?
