Sad that he’s falling for the leftist narrative of American storm troopers ripping women and children apart and shooting anyone in the way. The actual plan is methodical and very well thought out for the safety and security of ALL Americans.
Hitler, huh RAND?
For years now, I’ve heard the endlessly parroted breathless “immigrant illegals of military age!!” It’s so tirelessly coy, with an almost implied “wink wink nudge nudge”. Are these “military age” invaders of a foreign army or are they not?!Let’s absolutely get our military involved and find out, once and for all.
Absolutely nothing wrong with our military protecting our border and keeping Americans safe from neighboring countries.
In fact, that's their mission.
His point is the constitution is against using military in police functions.
Do we want the next blue administration to send troops in to cities?
Isn’t it the military’s job to protect us from an invasion?
To remove illegal alien invaders? Absolutely.
There are not going to be mass deportations of invaders.
The way to go is with a Pay&Stay fee. The irregular alien would pay $400/month minimum, with their FICA from two calendar years back being credited towards the $400 if timely and correctly paid. The delay is necessary because IRS doesn’t know who the FICA tax is paid for at the time the employer pays the FICA tax.
If the irregular alien earned $30,000, the FICA tax that should have been paid from the irregular alien’s earnings would be 6.2% of $30,000, or $1860. Divided by 12, that $1860 would come to $155/month.
The irregular alien would have to pay $245/month to stay that year. A 10% discount might be given if timely paid by automated means.
If the irregular alien is under age 18 and not in employment, their Pay&Stay fee would be $50/month.
Firmness can make many irregular aliens into good tax-paying people.
Once $100,000 in FICA tax is timely paid by the alien, an irregular alien might then be made eligible to apply for citizenship. There would be no sponsorship or reunification abilities under that citizenship.
Irregular aliens who timely pay their Pay&Stay fees, government levies, maintain insurance as required by law, and do not commit crimes punishable by imprisonment or fines in excess of $1,000 would not be subject to removal.
There would be 30 days of fee payment grace for each 12 months of timely Pay&Stay fee payments and payment of a $100 grace fee within a grace time.
Failure to pay a Pay&Stay fee would result in imprisonment for 1 year if less than 24 monthly fees were paid, as well as removal with any return subject to like imprisonment and removal.

“ARTICLE IV.
SECTION 4.
The United States shall...protect each of them against invasion”
Sen. Paul’s alternative to the US military?
For the love of...
There exists something called the Posse Comitatus Act.
LE is gonna be busting some hump. Them 60K armed IRS agents could be deputized for the task! Wouldn’t that be a kick in the pants!
That’s what Levin cited last night. Thanks, Brian.
*** I understand his point that it isn’t a good look, and that our military personnel aren’t trained for this, fair enough. ***
In 1997, During Operation Gatekeeper a Texas Teen Esequiel Hernandez, Jr was shot and killed by a group of US marines in Redford, TX. The high schooler was herding his goats on his family’s ranch. The marines were wearing ghillie suits, IIRC, and traçked/followed the young man for 20 minutes before killing him. The family had not been informed of the military tromping around their property at the time.
Question for Libertarians why does the government even exist if it’s not to protect its citizens...
Libertarian minimal government rules apply to citizens It doesn’t apply to non-citizens that come here illegally
It seems to me Rand didn't just win a national Presidential landslide based heavily on this issue, and everyone knows this. While this is a good question that should be (and has been) answered, the country knows it did not vote for supine paralysis, and the invasion will be reversed.
Though I agree it is a crisis issue, I disagree that Rand’s opinion hurts MAGA. IF, and that’s a big IF, we believe in our form of government, the Senator is right, or at least has a right to voice his opinion as a member of the upper chamber of an EQUAL but separate branch of government. I don’t mind the dissent…it keeps everyone honest and Trump is going to say “tough ti**y” to Rand and move on, which is fine, too….MAGA lives on.
How would Paul feel if a close relative of his was killed by and illegal?
‘How would Paul feel if a close relative of his was killed by and illegal?“
That’s the reason behind the constitution and law and order, not personal,retribution.
Once the Germans cross the Poland border, the Polish military can’t send them back?
Will they attack the Gleiwitz Radio Station, first?
