Former Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo) sharply criticized President Trump's deportation of illegal aliens to Guatemala, saying "everybody in America wants violent criminals who are here illegally out of the country, but there's a right way and a wrong way to do it. That's what Judge Boasberg was trying to establish when he ordered the plane carrying 200 illegal alien criminals out of the country to turn back. Now we'll have to endure the embarrassing spectacle of having the President of the United States jailed for contempt of court."
"We have been a beacon to the world for the brightest minds to come to our universities," the Senator added. "Now we see Trump's 'mini-me' Marco Rubio is having foreign students here on visas being deported merely for expressing their opinions about Jews and the atrocities Israel is committing against the Palestinians. Our First Amendment gives these students the right to speak their minds. They shouldn't be punished for this. The only proper action is to rebut ideas you don't like by expressing better ideas, not ejecting those who express these ideas from the United States--the so-called land of liberty."
Secretary of State Rubio explained that "visas are privileges granted on the expectation of good behavior by the foreigners. Students who get these visas say they are here to study. However, when they interfere with the education of Jews by blocking their access to class, illegally occupying campus buildings, and spouting antisemitism they violate the conditions of their visas."
Rubio then added "frankly, I'm shocked that Democrats are rallying to the defense of some of the worst aliens who have entered our country. Whether they be individuals sharing some of the same vile woke values of the Democrat Party or seemingly apolitical predators who victimize American citizens by committing violent and disgusting crimes, they don't merit the privilege of staying here. One of our government's most important jobs is to protect citizens' lives, safety, and property. Deportation is one of the milder penalties that can be imposed on aliens. It is better to take this action now than to wait until more serious crimes have harmed more Americans."
She probably knows it would take years & years to try each of these guys even if each & every one is guilty of breaking our laws. Then you have to consider the additional time of rounding them up ever how many times that is.
I’ll bet McCaskill has a maid and pool boy she’s worried about.
Look at it the way I do. These people are invaders we captured when they attacked America. We’re just trading them back to their home countries for any Americans their side may have captured. It’s the “humanitarian” thing to do.
Former Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo) should have been more concerned about the right way versus the wrong way to bring these people into our country. Maybe if she and others had shown some concern then, they would not be having this problem now.
I bet, all those people were ordered by court out of country a long time ago.
