The fear of “illegals” has reached pathological levels. It’s not healthy for you,.

The idea that millions of undocumented immigrants are deciding or substantially impacting elections is myth on the level of Bigfoot or worse. The same is true about the amount oof government payments. It’s exaggerated beyond all reason. The evidence certainly doesn’t support those fears…

Republicans in Congress won’t even vote to stop illegals from receiving welfare.


This single issue should be a no-brainer priority to implement.

Instead it's a telltale sign that the GOP House & Senate are sock-puppet frauds who are collectively "taking a dive".

They could have bolstered their ranks with FBI ATF and whatever fricking agency they wished. They didn’t. Stop making excuses

Didn't he previously state that "they all had to go"?

Other than the media crying about it, what has changed?

Backing off the original plan of, "They've ALL got to go" to compromising "Just the ones who are criminals, druglords, and murderers " IS "caving".

And btw, the ICE Minny op was a complete and utter incoherent sloppy mess. Imo, mostly for show, never serious. AND....Waltz and the Mayor for some odd reason hasn't been disciplined in the very least.

You fricking moron. Starting with the criminals does not mean he is backing off anything. It just means he is starting with criminals.

Voted for Trump 3 times. Plan to vote for Higgins in the fall, other than Cassidy in the primary, and Republican in the general election. If democrooks sweep the midterms, it won’t be because of me.

Meanwhile, the escalated MN situation has netted just 400 ICE detentions ... 30x less than Texas ... not very efficient.

It's worth mentioning that in states/municipalities where the local authorities are cooperating with ICE, the criminal illegals who are already in custody and turned over to DHS willingly can be done on a 1:1 basis, instead of needing 10+ agents in full strike team formation.

Not sure how drawing down 700 of 3000 agents after getting what they were asking for ie the locals handing over the criminal aliens they had in custody, is caving

Caving?
With a state in literal open rebellion, besides going completely HAM, a different approach seems like a wise strategy.

Yes. He’s caving, and he is wise to cave. We lost this one.

In truth, he’s going back to what he originally promised. That being deportation of the violent and dangerous criminals. He’s also likely doing this because internal polling is showing that many Americans are not supportive of the tactics.


With that being said, I remain supportive of the legal deportation of illegal immigrants.

Goodness

Walz orders zero cooperation with ICE in MN, so with no local cooperation, DHS is forced to deploy 2700 of its 13000 agents there. Walz then caves and says "My bad. We will cooperate." So 700 ICE agents could then be redeployed elsewhere. Meanwhile, the escalated MN situation has netted just 400 ICE detentions ... 30x less than Texas ... not very efficient.

That's Trump caving?

Sometimes, you have to retreat and appear to lose a battle in order to win the war.

A Pyrrhic victory to crush them would probably lose the entire mechanism to keep the operation going nationwide.

The Dems got the needed sacrificial deaths to change the narrative.

This is war for the hearts and minds and even the souls of the American people.
