Trump Wants to Remove US Citizens from the US

[Etaoin Shrdlu]

For those who thought that being a US citizen would prevent removal from the US:

There is presently no law that specifically prevents a US citizen from being removed from the US.

 

If the government can deny due process to lawful permanent residents, then it isn't much of a leap to deny due process to US citizens. 

 

Who would have ever thought that his could even be "floated" in the US by the President?

[FritsSikkink]

Getting accused of a crime, kicked in to a jail in El Salvador, good luck to get a lawyer there to fight the dictator.

You get what you vote for.

[FlorC]

He can start with all the people who said they would leave the US if he became president, but didn't.

 

All the people that stole via USAID , SS , NGO's , and the violent domestic terrorists.

Cheaper to remove them than building massive prisons and provide food for them.

People not doing anything wrong shouldnt have anything to worry about. Applies everywhere in the world

[Purdey]

The Supreme Court just ordered the Trump administration to bring back Kilmar Abrego Garcia, mistakenly sent to El Salvador.

In other countries people with Real Madrid tats don't get deported in chains without due process to a third world prison cell.

Not doing anything wrong according to whom?

Thats up to each individual to determine on their own. Only americans without a clean conscience would care about this

[Hanaguma]

Has this happened to any American citizen yet? Or is PBS fearmongering, as usual...

 

Not to mention it is being floated as a form of outsourcing for the worst violent criminal offenders. Not just anyone.

You make no sense.

 

Lawful Permanent Residents can and always have been subject to deportation.

 

U.S. Citizens cannot and never have been subjected to deportation.

 

Simple as that.  Stop hallucinating.

[FolkGuitar]

A good definition, I think...

MAGA Republicans are people who will withhold food from 1000 people out of fear that 1 person might not deserve it.

Democrats are people who will feed 1000 people out of concern that one person might need it.
I know in which country I'd prefer to live.

99.5% success rate?  Over 200 sent.  One may come back.

 

Yup.  That's winning.

Trump is looking for ways to remove US citizens from the US. Watch the video.

MAGA and criminal Trump are not following the constitution.

Can you cite a specific law that would prevent a US citizen from being removed from the US?

 

I don't think there is one.

 

Whether it has been done before isn't relevant. Trump is doing many things that haven't been done before and he's openly discussing the possibility of removing US citizens from the US.

Indeed, it would be difficult to deport US citizens, as there is nowhere to deport them to.

This topic is a troll. You are a troll. Total fiction.

 

By the way, have you screeched over Obamas MURDER of an American citizen?

 

[spidermike007]

I think there's no question that he has fascist tendencies, and that he wants to be a dictator, who's completely untethered to any sort of restrictions, laws, rules, or limitations.

 

Allow him that power and the tears will flow, and the bitterness will grow.

If a country, let's say El Salvador, agreed to take them, what specific law would stop the US government from sending them?

So, if one does wrong, then others doing wrong is ok in your book. In other words you promote Mayhem!

One exception is naturalized citizens who can be stripped of their citizenship.  Happened to a few former Nazis who had become US citizens, then it was discovered they participated in Nazi crimes.  (I suspect that it's happened to others, but the Nazi cases are well known.)  And of course, there are extradition treaties where criminals sought by other countries may be sent to those countries for prosecution even if they are US citizens.

 

But none of that is new (or specific) to Trump...

 

[hotsun]

The left lost because of this by the way. Defense of terrorists and criminals, i hope they keep doing it

No I despise hypocrisy.

 

Trump talks, the sky is falling.

Barack kills, ho hum.

 

How do you feel about the issue of Obama killing an American citizen? Good thing Trump got him immunity

Plenty of people who were found out to be innocent while doing decades in prison.

That is what they said about Auschwitz.

They should deport all the worst convicts to ElSalvador.  It would save the U.S. a ton of money.

"Wrong" has a different definition in Trumpworld, e.g. a failure to asskiss.

They are not convicts, they have not been arrested or tried. That is the problem.

Then why didn’t Karoline Leavitt state it was impossible instead of confirming that Trump was contemplating it?
 

The video is in the link in the OP.
