Would it not be great if lying was a crime. hhhhmmmm now whom is the biggest. god I am so sick of all this crap. how about discuss the overwhelming gun violence, most of the guns are acquired just before the shooting and they never should have a gun. when does money stop dictating, hey if we are so concerned of the border, how about not selling guns to Mexican drug cartel armies. if we did those 2 things, guess what people are happy living in their own country much more than now. just a thought

Roy’s been talking his blood pressure up for years. He’s accomplished absolutely nothing.

[@AdderTude]

They can't take action until the GOP takes the Senate! Think this through! The House may impeach and proceed to trial, but then it's in the hands of the Senate which is controlled by the Donkeys, who will most certainly vote to acquit the accused like Mayorkas and Garland.

Why is this guy not in jail

[@monicavelez1075]

Why is mayorkus not being imprisoned for all the fetanal deaths that have occurred due to his actions on the border

[@scottfarner5100]

Title 42 suspended title 8 laws and authority use to deter and penalize illegal border crossing. The Right was using it to undermine legal asylum under 8 US code 1158. It also suspends 8 US code 1325; the misdemeanor that carries a civil penalty for crossing the border illegally. And 8 US code 1326; stiffer penalties for crossing the border. That leaves out any legal penalty or deterrent for those crossing and stops legal asylum, with few exceptions under title 42. Makes it difficult to enforce immigration laws when Republicans are fighting in court to undermine our legal enforcement. With title 42 suspending enforcement that means many immigrants recross multiple times causing apprehension numbers to be inflated. The current rate of multiple returns is about 40% of border crossers. We had a 11 year decline in southern border crossing to the lowest point in 50 years prior to Trump and his polices. By 2019 Trumps policies doubled the number of people crossing the southern border to 977,000. He only saw a reduction for the first 9 months of 2020 due to covid, before it went back to a 20 year monthly high in October of 2020. It has remained a 20 year high and increasing ever since under Trumps failed policies and Title 42.
