The program, which now has fewer than 600,000 enrollees, never offered a pathway to citizenship.

Last month, a federal appeals court affirmed an earlier decision in Texas by U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen, a George W. Bush appointee, that found DACA to be illegal. But the ruling kept the protections in place as a lawsuit challenging the program was sent back to the lower court for further proceedings.

The case is anticipated to reach the Supreme Court, where legal experts believe the conservative majority will also rule that the program is illegal.

“It was ‘a temporary stopgap measure,’ then-President Obama said when he introduced DACA in 2012.”

More misinformation from Obama.

This will go to the Supreme Court where the “conservative” majority will rule it illegal (one can hope).

With no red wave due to fraud, the next two years will be hell. They’re gettin’ out while the gettin’s good.

[Roccus]

Buh-bye

[skeeter]

If true this is GREAT news.

[Gaffer]

DACA was NEVER legislated Statute. It was unlawful Presidential edict to federal agencies to NOT ENFORCE IMMIGRATION LAW.

What does “legality” have to do with anything?

“Legality” is racist.

“Leaving the US, Disheartened by Years of Instability”

I know just how they feel.

[TangoLimaSierra]

Self-deportation is only way we're gonna get rid of the millions here illegally.

We've got to keep making it tougher on them and the employers that hire them.

[cranked]

C Y A!

[Jonny7797]

Too F’ing bad. Kick them all out.

[Rurudyne]

Impossible, DACA recipients have no connection to their home countries and it would be cruel to send them back there, as we were all told.

Don’t let the door hit ya where the Lord split ya.

They say this like it's a bad thing

[T.B. Yoits]

Now that they know their new "country" is called Martha's Vineyard, they might change their minds.

[gunnut]

Perfect. Can we get more to self deport?

[EEGator]

We shouldn’t reward bad behavior?…

[Vaduz]

Pathway to Citizenship = Go By The Rules

It’s worked for millions who earned it rules are for a reason.

We now have more illegals in this country then they are in all the people in Ireland.
