Was this the trump government's policy agenda all along?

Entering the country illegally makes you a criminal and thus gets you a criminal record....

That is factually incorrect.

 

[Mac1958]

Thus far the three biggest successes the regime has had is to concentrate power in the hands of a would be autocrat thanks to a rogue Supreme Court, create chaos, and allow trump to amass hundreds of millions of dollars in wealth.

All while convincing the credulous rubes that America is being made great again.

Incredible.

Conmen like him only come along once in a generation. It's as though he possesses the ability to invoke a kind of mass hypnosis over the flock. Getting them to suspend reality and act in ways that go counter to their self interests.

It's a start, the very thing Trump supporters voted for. Illegal is illegal, only criminal loving liberal scum seem to miss that important distinction.

The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRIRA) amended 8 U.S.C. § 1325 to provide that an alien apprehended while entering or attempting to enter the United States at a time or place other than as designated by immigration officers shall be subject to a civil penalty.

You have no clue how many SNAP recipients are Republican dumbass. KY isn't as bad as NM.

View attachment 1191660

The point is Republican voting (red) states are the most welfare dependent. But yes, you are right about New Mexico also being a poor state as well. Doesn't change the fact that white-trash Republican voters in Appalachian and southern states suck more off the gubmint welfare tit than your imaginary illegal aliens.

That is factually incorrect.

Prove it... you are wrong... breaking immigration laws are a crime.... you can ******* lie but everyone knows its a crime...

That was when Biden was in office... Trump is the president now....

He said they were going to start with the violent criminals, but those people go underground, so could not produce the numbers for the arrest quotas, so now it is anybody with brown skin, to be sorted out later, be they illegals, legal aliens, or American citizens.

Any evidence of these “arrest quotas”?

Didn’t think so.

Uh....yeah...it does. It proves that your imaginary illegal alien welfare drain problem isn't a real thing but mostly white, Republican voting Appalachian and southern welfare dependency is.
Anymore stupid questions Simp?

All 15 million? Any idea what that would do to the economy?

Save taxpayers trillions over decades.

I never said anything about illegals on welfare, I said we need to bring back Clinton's 2-year lifetime limit on welfare.
We need to get illegals off SNAP, and other scams like the $8b Somali scams in MN.

Yes. The economy will adapt. The government spending waste will be eliminated. Many other problems will be solved.

As long as we are talking about eliminating government spending waste we can't ignore the real culprit, corporate welfare.

This study tallies corporate welfare in the federal budget and finds that the government spends $181 billion a year on aid to businesses. That figure is based on a broad definition of corporate welfare, which includes direct cash subsidies and indirect industry support. The study then discusses 12 reasons to cut corporate welfare, including the political corruption and economic damage it causes.

More industries are becoming dependent on the federal government and driven by politics, which is a dangerous move toward central planning in the economy. Cutting corporate welfare would free markets, boost growth, and trim alarmingly high federal budget deficits.

Mass Deportation of Unauthorized Immigrants: Fiscal and Economic Effects | Penn Wharton Budget Model

It is well known that mass deportation reduces aggregate economic variables like GDP due to scale effects. We project that deportation also reduces wages of high-skill workers, compromising 63% of workers. Still, authorized low-skilled workers can see their wages increase but only if the...

we estimate that permanent deportation would cost an additional $900 billion over the first 10 years.

The United States currently has over 11 million unauthorized immigrants

That's about $82,000 per illegal spread over 10 years.

Federal, state and local governments spend a lot more than that on illegals.
In Chicago, we spend about $20,000 per student.

More than 5,700 newly arrived immigrant students have enrolled in Chicago Public Schools since the beginning of the school year, district officials said Thursday.

5,700 newly arrived immigrant students have enrolled in Chicago Public Schools

As the city struggles to house migrant families who are arriving daily, CPS said it is working to get more teachers certified to teach English language learners.

Looks like an extra $114,000,000 expense for the Chicago Public Schools.
More, because I'm sure a typical illegal alien needs ESL staff, free lunch, immunizations, etc.

You are a victim of MAGAt stereotyping. White Republican voters across Appalachia and the southern states are a bigger drain on government "benefits" than minorities, including immigrants. This is just Kentucky but it is pretty much representative of most red states.

What are the demographics of SNAP recipients in Kentucky?
According to state data, 645,461 people received SNAP benefits in October, including about 261,000 who were under the age of 18 and 92,000 over the age of 60.

The vast majority of recipients are White, at 76%. Black residents make up almost 16% of participants, while Hispanic residents make up almost 6

Excellent!
