I must've missed where migrants are being fast tracked to citizenship because that typically takes close to a year, has multiple steps and requirements, and takes money to get someone through the process. You typically have to have lived in the US as a permanent resident for 5 years or be married to a citizen for 3.

My company is currently sponsoring some of my employees for their citizenship.  With a fucking legal team behind them, it takes 3-4 years and our incurred cost is around $20,000 per employee.  I would imagine if Juan Sanchez is doing it himself, the process isn't as streamlined.

You typically have to have lived in the US as a permanent resident for 5 years or be married to a citizen for 3. It is not so simple as just dropping someone into a swing state and boom they're a citizen. They have to apply, they have to be fingerprinted, they have to be interviewed, they have to take a citizenship test, and they have to be present at an oath ceremony. The government does nothing quickly. In my line of work, I help people get a government certification that can take 4 to 6 weeks for anyone born outside of the US because their documents have to undergo a screening process before their application even gets looked at.

Non-citizens cannot vote. There is no mechanism outside of fraud that allows them to vote.  If the Federal Government was fast tracking migrants to become citizens, it would be blasted everywhere. This is just the typical Musk replacement theory hysteria. 

It’s better than that. I’d bet 100k dollars out of my retirement that republicans have bussed more migrants to blue and swing states than any fucking democratic state admin.

I spent an insane amount of time trying to help a junior engineer on my team get a damn green card.  This stuff is cumbersome.

My experience at HP was that they used the green card and immigration process to force employees to work insane 80 hour work weeks, because once the years long process has started they have to start over if they leave for another job and humane working conditions. It was basically indentured servitude.

Yes, apparently Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis are in on the conspiracy to beef up migrant numbers in blue and swing states. I guess Elon will want to move out of Texas because of this treachery against white America.

Trump is super leaning into the taxpayer paid Transgender surgeries for illegals and prisoners thing.

Just saw their campaign ad during the Texans game.

I mean, is this just for his vanity / not to look like an idiot during the debate or do they feel it’s a winning issue? 
 

 

I’m in CA for the weekend and he’s wasting money on them out here.

Just saw the Trump campaign dumping some money in Maine’s 2nd CD. That’s uh…not good for them. ME-02 was like Trump +8 or 9 in 2020

Maybe he's trying to help the congressional candidate?

 

 

I kid, I kid

You know, he might have a point. If we had plainclothes cops, or maybe Blackwater guys carrying Uzis (remember those?) under their NFL jerseys they could summarily execute shoplifting teens right in the CVS parking lot.  Or the at the auto parts store.  Just shoot off two or three magazines each.  Go all Frank Hammer/Bonnie and Clyde on their ass.  Then we would have a great nation again.

He's been convicted of a bunch of felonies, and has been accused of a bunch more. I assume he will be a part of this really violent day? Like a pinata?

This right here is the type of thing that the people who don't care about his other craziness should care about.

Anybody who sees this and relies on OT should B's ready to punch him in the face. 

Of course, he's already told them they're too stupid to vote for their own interests, so they'll probably hold form.

is that real? this might be the first time he actually prayed. and amazingly he didn't insert something about himself or Comrade Kamala in there. which makes me think it's not real, or at best, he didn't write it

He did  not, since it is an actual prayer from a Catholic prayer book from the late 1800s

It is St. Michael’s Feast day today.

That said, I’m reminded of Liam Neeson saying it in the opening scene of Gangs of New York, where Daniel Day-Lewis proceeded to tax that ass.

Trump: We need to give police completely immunity and allow them to do a purge every once in awhile.

Also Trump: The cop that shot Ashli Babbit after multiple warnings was a completely out of control rogue officer and he and his family should be murdered.

I typically ignore and/or don't engage my brother's idiotic social media posts because it's pointless. He continues to post clips of Kamala speaking as proof she is an idiot. I did a drive by of 'cool, now do Trump'. I'm sure this will go well.

I have some MAGA friends and today they posted something about a second debate with both candidates on lie detector tests. 
They train retrievers for competitions so I add that they should have to wear shock collars for when they lie. They agreed 🤣

It's mind bottling that so many people have convinced themselves that this guy is some kind of genius who never lies. There's no reasoning with that.

It's not fully about Trump - a lot of it is the team bullshit that's been building since the 80s and 90s, and that kicked into high gear in the 90s with Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Newt Gingrich, etc.

Romney and McCain just weren't willing to tap into the hate the way the Trump does.
