    Except “crossing the border makes them illegal” is conservative logic. Every one of them is a criminal in their eyes

      You gotta do some trolling with that. Something along the lines of, “whoa wanting a better life is a crime? The woke left have gone too far”

    Seems like a lot of tax dollars being wasted, as well as a ton of taxed income no longer coming in either. How anyone thinks any of this is a good idea is beyond crazy.

      This is why I fucking hate paying federal taxes in California. They want to tax me 34% so they can kidnap people, start wars, etc.

      That’s why you make them work, so they are profitable. They can regain their freedom that way.

      We could put them in a place that has a sign that says ‘Work will set you free’ over the gate.

      ::: spoiler /s for those that failed to pick up on the extreme sarcasm.

    On Monday, June 23, ICE’s detention level was — on paper at least — at over 140% capacity, since Congress last allocated 41,500 detainee beds for the agency, the figures show.
