Dem's finally get Jim Jordan to shut up.

House Judiciary approves proposals to boost immigration enforcement in Trump’s megabill​

House Republicans on the Judiciary Committee have advanced their portion of President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” endorsing a suite of policies that would turbocharge the administration’s immigration enforcement and deregulation efforts.

Among their proposed changes to the bill, Democrats sought to include language that would have prevented funds from being used for civil immigration enforcement actions in elementary schools or from being used by Immigration and Customs Enforcement to detain or deport a citizen. Those efforts failed in the Republican-controlled committee.

“Everyday the administration uses immigration enforcement as a template to erode constitutional rights and liberties,” Raskin said. “They round up people in the street and disappear them to the torture prison of a foreign dictator without one minute of due process.”

But Republicans were almost entirely silent during the roughly 9-hour meeting, a marked shift for the usually raucous House Judiciary Committee. At one point, Rep. Joe Neguse (D-Colo.) prodded his GOP colleagues by name to engage in the debate, saying it was the only time in his yearslong Congressional tenure that House Judiciary Committee chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) “has refused to make a comment.”

The reporting I saw on the vote said Dem's proposed around 30 amendments to the bill including prohibiting the use of appropriated funds to deport American citizens. And ensuring the right to habeas corpus for any potential deportee. Repubs never uttered a word, declining to state their objection to the amendments while voting against them. They kept their heads down and did what they were told. Ceding more authority on immigration to trump.

I found it particularly disappointing to see House Repubs continue to obey, like the unprincipled cowards they are, the directives coming from the WH in light of Don's decreasing approval on issues from the economy to immigration. These votes were for the markup of a bill so I suppose they thought no one would notice their disregard for the Constitution and basic human decency.

STFU and vote = WINNING.

STFU and vote = WINNING.

Refusing to support the constitutional principle of habeas corpus = a violation of their oath of office. Just like Dear Leader when he tried to steal the 2020 election.

They came in illegally they can go out illegally.
Trump got 11,000,000 more votes in 2020 than in 2016.....and lost? Bullshit. Mail-in voter fraud won in 2020.

 

[Hellokitty]

LOL, democrats are losing so badly they're calling Jim Jordan taking a nap a win...

 

[berg80]

They came in illegally they can go out illegally.

Well, I appreciate your candor. It takes a certain kind of person to admit they are all for violating the Constitution as long as trump is doing the violating. Such people are known as trump cultists...........and traitors to America.

Dude, Obama and Biden deported hundreds of thousands of illegals without a hearing, without a judge, without habeas corpus.

the whining from you and your critters in Congress as you obey is the rankest of hypocrisy.

Memo, Dems now call voter fraud and ballot box stuffing...'ballot harvesting' because that sounds far less illegal.

 

[berg80]

Not taking a nap. He was fully awake when he decided to remain silent about his vote in favor of deporting US citizens and denying the accused the right to due process. His fellow Repubs were also too embarrassed to speak as well.

Democrats letting in 12,000,000 illegals with open borders is the biggest national security disaster in US history. Letting in 166,000 Chinese, 125,000 Russians, 500,000 convicted criminals, and hundreds of terrorists including ISIS requires immediate corrective action. Democrats are the traitors, open borders proved it.

Trump is not violating the Constitution, under Article 2 he has the legitimate authority to remove illegals. The AEA also provides a legal basis to remove the invasion by a "predatory incursion". So stop lying. We know who the real traitors are.

What? So you’re ok with illegally deporting people?

Without due process how do we know that they SHOULD go?

How do we know that they aren’t citizens??

“Illegally deporting” people is dystopian

Lets separate the nation. We will see how long each side lasts. You guys squander wealth. Too much of it.

It was a violation of the Constitution to ignore our immigration laws by INVITING the invaders in the country.
It is TREASON to use the Constitution to not allow for the rapid removal of the INVADERS.
You mother fuckers are DISGUSTING.

“Illegally deporting” people is dystopian

1. No one is illegally deporting people. Illegals are given a hearing date and deported legally via "remain in Mexico".
2. If they are not here legally they get deported to wait for their hearing.
3. Its easy to prove citizenship, its called a birth certificate, or some other proof.

Deportations are NOT dystopian, not for Clinton, Bush, or Obama

Yes, Obama deported more people than Trump but context is everything

President Donald Trump wants to deport a lot of people this weekend. "You know what? They came in illegally. They have to go out," he told reporters Friday as he confirmed that planned immigration raids would go ahead in certain cities starting this weekend.

www.cnn.com

According to an analysis by the Migration Policy Institute, more than 12 million people were “deported” – either removed or returned – from the US during the Clinton administration. More than 10 million were removed or returned during the Bush administration. Far fewer – more than 5 million – were removed or returned during the Obama administration.

Clinton deported 12,000,000
Bush deported 10,000,000
Obama deported 7,000,000 (aka the "deporter-in-chief)
Trump-45 deported 2,000,000
Biden let in 12,0000,0000
Trump-47 will deport ____________

So democrats need to stop whining about legal deportations by Republican presidents.

You've been indoctrinated by trumpian bullshit.

Trump’s use of Alien Enemies Act for swift deportations is illegal, Trump-appointed judge rules​

https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/01/trump-deportations-court-ruling-00321455

The question that this lawsuit presents is whether the President can utilize a specific statute, the AEA, to detain and remove Venezuelan aliens who are members of TdA. As to that question, the historical record renders clear that the President’s invocation of the AEA through the Proclamation exceeds the scope of the statute and is contrary to the plain, ordinary meaning of the statute’s terms. As a result, the Court concludes that as a matter of law, the Executive Branch cannot rely on the AEA, based on the Proclamation, to detain the Named Petitioners and the certified class, or to remove them from the country.1

As to your last statement

Stop claiming that Dems are soft on illegal immigration. That’s an obvious lie. They have focused on stopping new arrivals at the border and removing criminal illegals and have been very successful.

As to your “Biden let in 12 million” claim

That’s made up bullshit. Nothing you posted supports that
