LP short version immigration.
3.4 Free Trade and Migration
We support the removal of governmental impediments to free trade. Political freedom and escape from tyranny demand that individuals not be unreasonably constrained by government in the crossing of political boundaries. Economic freedom demands the unrestricted movement of human as well as financial capital across national borders.
LP long version immigration.
IMMIGRATION:
THE ISSUE: We welcome all refugees to our country and condemn the efforts of U.S. officials to create a new “Berlin Wall” which would keep them captive. We condemn the U.S. government’s policy of barring those refugees from our country and preventing Americans from assisting their passage to help them escape tyranny or improve their economic prospects.
THE PRINCIPLE: We hold that human rights should not be denied or abridged on the basis of nationality. Undocumented non-citizens should not be denied the fundamental freedom to labor and to move about unmolested. Furthermore, immigration must not be restricted for reasons of race, religion, political creed, age or sexual preference. We oppose government welfare and resettlement payments to non-citizens just as we oppose government welfare payments to all other persons.
SOLUTIONS: We condemn massive roundups of Hispanic Americans and others by the federal government in its hunt for individuals not possessing required government documents. We strongly oppose all measures that punish employers who hire undocumented workers. Such measures repress free enterprise, harass workers, and systematically discourage employers from hiring Hispanics.
TRANSITIONAL ACTION: We call for the elimination of all restrictions on immigration, the abolition of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Border Patrol, and a declaration of full amnesty for all people who have entered the country illegally.

“Some of you MAGA loyalists are going to feel bad for selling your soul to the cult of personality when his term is up.”
Poor fellow is a bit confused. President Trump is taking advantage of existing desires of the American electorate and slapped an appropriate name on it, MAGA.
When President Trump falls afoul of those desires, those same voters let him know about it.
That being said, perfection is not required especially when you’re getting 90%+ on the big ticket items.
Rand, being a senator is valuable. Think 6 year terms. Massie is just a gnat. We need a strong libertarian but showboating should be up to the senator. Funny I thought Massie would be a good successor to the turtle but he knows better than to take that leap.
Many libertarians are more like anarchists. They believe in no borders, legalized drugs, have no religious convictions, and would be OK with defunding police. On the other hand, modern liberals are proto-communists who want an all-powerful government as long as it’s their kind of government. Conservatives are the only moderates who just want limited government.
And exactly what have Massie or Rand ever accomplished? For anyone except themselves?
Not really, libbers play all kinds of games, and that is one of them.
Rand is far better than the Trey Grayson he defeated to become a Senator, but it doesn’t put him on any exalted plane.
(I'm not interested in your dopey religious cult).
There is a distinction between the party organization and those who might have libertarian instincts like independents for example and who are not part of it or affiliated with it
There is a difference
Hey little boy, want a piece of candy?
Sorry, I don’t think we need people who vote to protect organ harvesters saying it is “nosing” into the affairs of other countries to further a “constitutional conservative” agenda.

Lone Republican becomes only lawmaker to vote against crackdown on human organ trafficking (Massie)
A bill aimed at cracking down on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its practice of forced organ harvesting passed with overwhelming support on Wednesday – though one House lawmaker voted against it.
Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., was the lone Republican to oppose the Stop Forced Organ Harvesting Act, which passed 406-1.
“It’s just another example of us trying to stick our nose in another country’s business and write their laws,” Massie told Fox News Digital after the vote. “And at the end of the day, they’re gonna do what they’re gonna do, and it’s just sort of a virtue signal over here.”
...
But his pushback is also notable now given his status as an open critic of Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and at times, of President Donald Trump.
The bill was introduced by Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., and would authorize the Secretary of State to deny U.S. passports and visitor visas to people involved in organ trafficking circles.
It would also call for sanctions on entities and individuals found to have participated in the gruesome illicit industry.
No difference, they use the title then they chose the definition and the party is the best definition.
Libbers never stop playing games and word games.
But there are millions who are not in the party or interested in it
There’s probably more in the GOP officially
Massie votes against all those bills based on putting America first
Your picking one out to make him look bad. He’s very consistent
“”””””@beinlibertarian Dear MAGA, Nothing will lose libertarian support for Republicans like Trump.......””””””
This is addressed to MAGA/Republicans, from the Libertarians about Libertarianism.
Not a big fan of the Ron or Rand Paul but one fact for sure Trump has a very limited shelf life as he has gotten little through Congress and so the next guy will just wipe it all away. The True Believers of Mega are going to be sorely disappointed when Trump is a Lame Duck as he has done little to put his legacy in stone. President Trump seems very hesitate in naming someone to be his successor of the Mega movement and that brings up many questions least in my opinion as I was sure JD Vance would be but Trump says no so what gives..
I’m not speaking for him but personally I have nothing to do with the party nor endorse it
I emphasize the small L (l)
