      You were okay with the program deporting people without trial because they “are criminals”? Are you even listening to yourself?

        No I assumed that they would take the legal route of getting rid of illegal immigrants that are criminals I didn’t expect it to be like this. But I still am on board with them getting rid of illegal immigrants that are criminals, They just need to go about it a better way

          That thing you wanted was already happening under Biden, and before him. How do I know? They didn’t hire new people. They just gave the signal to the existing hires that they can do what they want. They were able to deport criminals before, and they did. Trump just lied when he said they didn’t. During the campaign he duped millions of people into believing a fake problem to which he is now providing a fake solution: no additional criminals are being deported, not really — they’re just doing things more sloppily, being more cruel about it, and padding the numbers with innocent people.

          Ok, “deporting” people to El Salvador instead of their home country. That’s certainly new.

              I made an account at the start of the year before changing to make one not associated with my at all. The redditification of Lemmy had become so much worse even just since I got here.
