President Donald Trump - J.D. Vance Administration

I feel sorry for them as well. What should be happening is that if a person(s) is in the process of pursuing the legal means to be here, particularly at the actual court hearing, ICE should have orders to abstain and let those legal proceedings play out.
I think these people already have deportation orders from a court and ice uses the court to draw these people out. We can argue whether that is ethical or not. I do agree that we need immigration reform to make it an easier process to become an American citizen.
 
These videos are created to deliver an emotional reaction from the people viewing it. In my experience, there is usually a lot of info being left out.

If my wife was being deported, my kids and I would be going with her. It sucks but they are having to clean up a mess left by the previous administration.

So lose 6 young American citizens that we need because we are demographically upside down, so that we can spend resources to get rid of somebody who wasn't a problem? Make it make sense.

Or raise interest rates again, significantly. The Fed has been put in a bad position by years of bloated, negligent budgets/spending. Pain will come either by choice and making tough decisions/changes or by natural rupture and fracture of the economy trying to reset itself and find a new equilibrium.
I’m afraid there won’t be any real fix for what’s coming down the tracks, only pain… housing market is in trouble too, I think.

We don’t have any information about these people. How would you clean up this mess?

That's not what happened. She showed up for her hearing and the case was dropped, so there is no active deportation order. They're waiting around for flimsy cases to be dropped so they can scoop people up and act like they're doing a good job.

Focus all efforts on dangerous criminals and people who commit property crime. We don't have enough resources to get them all. It's hard to do that. So we go for low-hanging fruit, but it hurts us. It doesn't help us.

The Fed playing politics has put the Fed in a bad position.
Indeed, but the history of the Fed not withstanding, they can do little to nothing wrt the debt and its impacts other than raise rates significantly. Might as well pee on a five alarm building fire trying to put it out.

Oh yeah, we’re going to feel it. Short of Congress doing the right thing, which is going to take real tough love, get the spending in check and balance the budget well out into the future, we’re the modern day economic equivalent of the Titanic.

i would focus on anyone who has broken our lies or laws in another country, gang/terrorist affiliated, anyone with a previous deportation order, and anyone that is receiving taxpayer funded living/food.

ChatGPT can help interpret what it actually means that they dropped her case. If it's option 1, *** what are we doing? Prosecutors are on the same side as ICE.

1. Prosecutorial Discretion (PD) – Case Dismissed Without Deportation

ICE attorneys sometimes agree to drop or dismiss a deportation case if the person is not considered a priority for removal. This is called prosecutorial discretion. It means:
  • The person is no longer in active deportation proceedings,
  • But it doesn’t give them legal status—just a temporary pause.
  • ICE can still detain them later, especially if their immigration status is still unresolved.

2. Administrative Closure

The judge or DHS may have "closed" the case without a final ruling. This:
  • Stops active court proceedings,
  • But doesn’t provide lawful status or protection from detention.

3. Dismissal Due to Lack of Evidence or Technical Issues

In some rare cases, DHS might drop a case because they:

Cannot prove the person is deportable, or
  • Made a procedural error.
Even then, ICE may still choose to detain the person if they believe there’s a basis for removal under other grounds.

Why Would ICE Detain Her Anyway?​

If ICE agents detained Luz del Carmen Herrera right after her case was "dropped," it could mean:
  • They were waiting for the court case to end so they could re-arrest her administratively.
  • Or they disagreed with the court decision and want to pursue deportation another way (for example, through reinstatement of a prior order, if one exists).

Bottom Line:​

“They dropped the case” doesn't mean she's safe from ICE. It likely means her active court case was dismissed, but ICE still has authority to detain her if she doesn't have lawful status.
 
In the video, they're saying her case was dropped. They say it over and over.
Might be true, might be incorrect, and more than likely has a lot of info being left out.

A few days ago, an article was shared about a guy in a similar situation. I looked and found an article discussing the situation. It turned out the guy had applied for asylum and was denied. He had deportation orders since 2017. It just hadn’t been enforced until now.
 
i would focus on anyone who has broken our lies or laws in another country, gang/terrorist affiliated, anyone with a previous deportation order, and anyone that is receiving taxpayer funded living/food.

Well, you're mostly going to end up with people with a previous deportation order and no crimes, and then their kids (who were depending on them) will be more reliant on taxpayer funding, and the economy will lose their labor. Well done.
 
Do you realize Trump is a Republican?
Yup, or at lest he decided to run as a Republican starting in 2016. He had probably been a democrat before that.
Which sort of reinforces my point that the Republican Party is a bigger tent that the democrat one. Except for second amendment rights, the party has members with pretty divergent viewpoints, even if some of them would never get a nationally prominent nomination.
Who is the democrat analogue for Sen Collins of Maine? Lisa Murkowski of Alaska? Rand Paul of Kentucky?
 
Pretty idiotic of her to be complaining about disinformation after serving as the chief disinformation officer of the last administration.
She was always an idiot & a big hypocrite so that might help clear that confusion up.
She was the first one to get pissed off & close her binder & walk off from the podium.

My point was that the highest ranking Republican in the country handles disagreement like a petulant 10 year old.
