Gov. J.B. Pritzker signs law to protect illegal migrants from the enforcement of our federal immigration laws

[Hafar1014]

Nope.

Only 340,000 were deported in FY 2025, and that includes 71,000 deported in the last three months of the Biden Administration..

“The numbers don’t lie: 2 million illegal aliens have been removed or self-deported in just 250 days— proving that President Trump’s policies and Secretary Noem’s leadership are working and making American communities safe,” Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement. “Ramped-up immigration enforcement targeting the worst of the worst is removing more and more criminal illegal aliens off our streets every day and is sending a clear message to anyone else in this country illegally: Self-deport or we will arrest and deport you.”


Amid President Donald Trump's heightened efforts in supporting Immigration and Customs Enforcement's mission, which includes increasing the agency's budget by $75 billion through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, ICE is on track to shatter its record by deporting nearly 600,000 illegals by the end of the year.

Or Maybe Trump could actually have humane policies and work with state officials to get the people we really want to get rid of.

That would be a start.

you know, instead of sending the ICEstapo out to gas Trick-or-treaters.

You guys are pure pro strong central government. You do not like ICE as illegals are much more important than citizens. Ghetto people who struggle and go along with your party's agendas on this are morons.

 

[Lisa558]

Which people do you want to get rid of?

He’d like to get rid of American-born Jews, and put illegals in their houses.

“The numbers don’t lie: 2 million illegal aliens have been removed or self-deported in just 250 days—

The numbers don't like, but Gestapo Barbie does.

I'll ask the same question. How did these 2 million get out? They don't have papers to get on an airplane. Supposedly, we've beefed up border security, so they didn't get out that way. (And Mexico and Canada haven't reported increased migrant activity).

Which people do you want to get rid of?

Anyone who has committed a violent felony, either here or in his home country

That would be those that are here illegally, they can comeback and come in legally if they want to, no point in punishing Americans because the government doesn’t enforce our laws.

How are Americans being "punished", exactly? They clearly don't want the jobs that immigrants are taking.

You could end the illegal problem in ten minutes by vigorously going after the companies that hire them. Trump isn't doing that. In fact, he's even lightening up on "enforcement" when companies have complained that his actions are hurting their business.

 

[JoeB131]

Well, since you are more loyal to Israel than America, why do you have a problem with that?

Incidentally, Pritzker is Jewish. I voted for him twice and will probably vote for him again next year. I'd support him if he were the Democratic Nominee in 2028 (although I think Mark Kelly would be a stronger candidate.)

As an aside, I served with his cousin when I was in the ILARNG. The guy had more money than God, but he was serving as a Captain in the National Guard. (Probably because the family didn't want him anywhere near the business.) Today, "she" calls herself "Jennifer" and wears a dress.

There is a self deport policy and program. All must be deported before the 2030 census so they cant be counted. This will cost democrats 12-15 seats in the house and shift them to GOP states
Democrats have done such a poor job in their states that millions are leaving

 

[Seymour Flops]

So blue state law enforcement should tur them over to ICE.

Not at the slave wages employers pay illegals.

Why do you support enslaving brown people?

Agree for once.

Except for the ten minute part, which is a lie.

I long ago have said, go after the companies that hire illegal immigrants. They need to follow the law. No president has ever clamped down on the employers. I am for fining and jail time, don’t hire and the illegals leave for home, which is great news. I want people in America that respect our immigration laws. The illegal immigrants, disrespect our country and our laws. We need the out of our country. There is a legal way to do thing, don’t try to insult those that came here through the proper channels.

Maybe now some of them would head home. Why would they have gone home when blue states were giving them housing, cash, and SNAP?

Not going to happen if you are only deporting 340,000 a year.

I should point out that the Census Bureau doesn't do a particularly good job of counting undocumented immigrants to start with.

Okay, now you have to ask yourself WHY we don't enforce the law on employers. Come on, buddy, I know you can make the connections if you try really hard!!!

 

[JoeB131]

Sure, if we could count on ICE not to lie about who they are after. Oh, wait, no, we can't. ICE lies all the ******* time and half the time, they don't know who they are even looking for.

Not at the slave wages employers pay illegals.

Why do you support enslaving brown people?

If someone does something volutarily for money for a breif period of time, they aren't being enslaved.

Democrats are defending rapist, murders and drug dealers...so some of us are confused about who they want to get out.

 

[Seymour Flops]

Evidence and examples for any of that?

If someone does something volutarily for money for a breif period of time, they aren't being enslaved.

Many if not most of them were trafficked by the cartel and their drug gangs and are forced to work off the debt. Many are children working long hours and not going to school and living in dangerous conditions.

That's what you support and supported during the Biden administration.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

If someone is in the United States illegally it doesn't matter what state they choose. It's federal law, they have to go.

 

[Rogue AI]

Yeah, here's the thing. The economy is going into the shitter.

No one is going to care about your fearmongering about an immigrant committing a crime when they are looking at a pink slip.

Gassing trick-or-treaters and priests is a bad look.

You guys were able to demagouge this issue in 2024, but now that people are seeing children being zip-tied and taken from their parents, people aren't so keen on your Gestapo tactics anymore.

You loons have been predicting economic disaster since inauguration day. Keep crying wolf, I'm sure it will just fine for you loons. Meanwhile, millions of criminal aliens prowl our streets and you really think nobody cares about the crimes they commit? Wow.

We have immigration laws for a reason. Don't you think laws should be obeyed?

 

[MagicMike]

The Democrats are not compassionate.
They are exploiting the illegal migrants for their greed for power.

How so?

 

[Lisa558]

How in the world can JoeB131 claim illegals are not hurting Americans because they’re only taking the jobs Americans don’t want?

1. Uneducated, unskilled Americans are able to refuse jobs because they are given so much money on welfare. Make working a requirement to continue getting other people’s money, and you’ll find that Americans will want those jobs.

2. The caliber of public schools where the illegals settle go way down. The Americans being punished are the children being robbed of a better education.

3. With all these illegal families clamoring for apartments, the rents on modest garden apartments is skyrocketing.

4. In areas with lots of illegals and bad schools, property values on private homes is suppressed.

And of course, there’s the actual cost - about $160 billion net a year.

And yet, leftists will insist that having 20 million illegals here doesn’t hurt anyone.

 

[Lisa558]

He’s a leftist. He thinks laws don’t have to be obeyed if they don’t advance the leftist, anti-American agenda.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

How so?

What was the purpose of Joe Biden allowing 10 million people to illegally enter our country?
