Georgia, thanks for mustering the outrage to spell that out so clearly. Stopping the wheels of government is exactly what extremists have convinced low-information Rs that's what they want. This is dire.

I concur with Georgi, and Alexandra with the following caveat---
I have long held that the Hitler analogy is too simplistic and an undue shortcut to avoid a deeper discussion. I still do. I think that irrespective of the objective damage done to our institutions, discourse and political culture by the barbarians led by the Seditionist Sociopath and the Murdochian Ministry of Mendacity, and the pusillanimous pissants like Jordan following in their wake, we still have a deep enough reservoir of democratic values, and cultural heterogeneity to prevent the type of slide from Weimar Republic to Nazi autocracy.
Having said that, I feel that Georgia's explanation is akin to the nuclear doomsday clock, and we are all indeed dangling a bit further out over the precipice.
1) Family separation started under OBAMA. They housed children in CAGES.
There was no outrage then.
You are a phony. You only care when it becomes a political weapon.
2) There was no finding of fact in this case because the BIDEN administration settled the lawsuit. This is a joke. You settle a lawsuit against the previous administration with
no trial, no finding of fact, and then claim this is proof they were wrong.
BTW can you name the LAW you claim the Trump administration broke?
3) Asylum is LEGAL if you do it at a PORT of ENTRY. Coming in ANY OTHER WAY isillegal.
You can't come across a river, open border, through a fence et cetera. THAT's illegal.
4) The BIDEN Administration is violating federal law with catch and release.
5) Family separation IS LEGAL and happens all the time. If you drive drunk for example and get pulled over, you are going to be legally separated from your children. Commit murder, get separated. Spousal abuse, get separated. Virtually every crime involving custody includes family separation.
Your moral outrage is disgusting. I've come to realize that all of your posts are never about the issue. Democrats refused to go the border. Biden and Harris refused to go to the border. They don't give a damn about the children. Its always about you. The narcissistic need to virtue signal. Americans hate BIDEN border policy. That's why he is building the wall now. Do you have any opinion on that? Hell no. That would take away from your sanctimony.
BTW - You can't spin the claim by leftist media that Obama didn't separate families
Jeh Johnson, DHS secretary under the Obama administration, told NPR earlier this month that he couldnтАЩt say that family separations тАЬnever happenedтАЭ during his tenure. тАЬ
There were a few families separated under Obama (activists like me used to call him the Deporter-in-Chief), but in no way was it a deliberate and wide-spread policy such as took place under Trump. Trump's policy was a whole different universe of cruelty.
James replies to a comment that had nothing to do with child separation. He just comes on these posts to troll and constantly besmirch Democrats. The comment that he replied to from Georgia had to do with Jordan and his speakership. Also his statement that Biden and Harris have not visited the southern border is just not true.
James misses the point, that just because family separation is legal in certain cases doesn't mean that we should encourage it or do it needlessly. He misses all nuance by ignoring that there was a spike in unaccompanied minors coming to the US at certain points under Obama as well.
Additionally, the Biden and Trump policies are pretty similar on the southern border. It's just the rhetoric that is different. Biden is building a portion of the wall that was also already previously approved and budgeted under Trump, and I think most American's including people on this blog only support legal immigration and would like to support more avenues for that. Nothing is all of nothing.
Thanks PhillyT. I get a little lost in these threads, with replies to replies to replies. I had typed a much longer reply but can also identify trolling. Not worth the effort. Have a good one.
That is a joke. If you drive drunk and the police separate you from your child, IS THAT DELIBERATE? Is it cruel? Hell No. The parent who BROKE the law is responsible.
There isn't an ounce of contempt for OBAMA's action's by the left. Its proof that everything is political, and moral grandstanding.
If Heather gave a damn about the"children" she would demand Biden go to the border. She ask for volunteers. She would raise money. She would lobby states for change.
Of course there is no of that. Instead its just phony do nothing narcissicism. Its so obvious and transparent that its a joke.
The writer does not appreciate the fact that laws are made by Congress and that CongressтАЩ failure to act on immigration, abortion, and on health insurance is an explanation for many concerns of which he complains. Please note that Congress under Trump attempted to impeach Trump twice, and that the judges under the federal system are appointed for life.
Why donтАЩt people have the courage to choose Republican leaders who have not been indicted four times and filed for bankruptcy for his companies four times?
You think the Roger Stone methodology of attack, attack, attack and deny, deny, deny will change minds in this comment section. You are sorely mistaken.
Do you know what you call a wall that has been breached over 4000 times? Trump's part of the border wall. Easy-peasy.
I'm guessing you aren't aware that under TFFG there were fewer border agents working for Uncle Sam than when Obama left office. Oops. Know anyone who wants to relocate their family and move to Lordsburg, NM for $60,000 a year? Yeah, I didn't think so. I hear the schools their are really good.
I suspect you also aren't aware that 3 times as many undocumented people enter the US from Canada than from Mexico. Yeah, that ain't Biden's fault.
And TFFG's Republican buddy Devin Nunes's family farm in Iowa has undocumented workers on the farm according to Esquire magazine. Heck, TFFG probably has undocumented workers in many of his businesses.
So run along now James. Hopefully you won't be back anytime soon with your BS.
1) Heather claimed that in a lawsuit "Ms. L. v. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement" that the (Trump administration) policy broke a number of U.S. lawsтАФseeking asylum is legal, and taking children away from their parents without cause is not
This claim is dishonest and inaccurate.
1) because the BIDEN administration settled the lawsuit without a trial or a finding of facts, she tried to claim this was proof that TRump administration had broken the law. BTW Heather NEVER cited "laws that were broken"
2) She was wrong on the claim that asylum is LEGAL. Asylum is ONLY LEGAL
if its done at a PORT of ENTRY. NOWHERE ELSE
8 U.S. Code ┬з 1325 - Any alien who (1) enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers, or (2) eludes examination or inspection by immigration officers, or (3) attempts to enter or obtains entry to the United States by a willfully false or misleading representation
3) She was wrong when she claimed that family separation is illegal. ANY PERSON committing a crime is eligible for family separation. If you drive drunk and are arrested YOU WILL BE SEPARATED from your children if they are in the car. Its dishonest to claim this violates a law. IT DOESN"T. If you violate
8 U.S. Code ┬з 1325 you are eligible for arrest.
4) Her post is dishonest in its moralizing. Family separation occurred under OBAMA.
Deal with what I wrote. BTW Heather NEVER corrects her mistakes. These are clear and dishonest mistakes.
James a posts both misinformation & disinformation on LFAA in violation of the 2023:Terms of Use but refuses to submit to ADT at JAMS SF that can handle Reader liability matters.
1) You don't cite a single example of disinformation. Because there aren't any.
EVERY WORD I wrote is true. You know it. I'm guessing your belief its untrue simply because I say it is. Well in the words of Christopher Hitchens
"That which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence."
2) Instead you whine like a leftist baby. I'm sure in every totalitarian regime there is someone like you threaten any dissenting opinions they don't like.
3) YOU ARE THE DISINFORMATION. By lying about my posts you are pushing disinformation.
4) Worse of all you are too stupid to realize that SUBSTACK was founded exactly because of people like you. Totalitarians who want to censor and cancel

The U.S. is on the brink of disaster. Gold could very well be the safest investment right now.
Whoa, Richard, that IS dire.
Stock market is tumbling.
Looks as though Jim Jordan will not become Speaker. So, perhaps not dire yet.

Thanks for refuting the lying commenter. He loves to troll and HCR's substack, most unfortunately, seems to be a favorite bridge to lurk under.
Deliberate?
