ICE Boston made eight arrests yesterday, including multiple MS-13, Interpol Red Notices, murder and rape suspects, and a volatile Haitian gang member with 18 convictions in recent years who told TV cameras that he "ain’t going back to Haiti" and "f--- Trump, Biden forever!"
This is the way things ought to be. Go after the criminals and violent offenders who have been sheltered by the progressives.

Trump is bringing order to the country. Democrats are friends of criminals, Russians and terrorists.

... Go after the criminals and violent offenders who have been sheltered by the progressives.
which progressives have ever supported violent offenders? evidence please
meanwhile trump has already pardoned 1000+ violent offenders & known murderers https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/01/22/donald-trump-pardon-convicted-police-officers/77889905007/ (https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/01/22/donald-trump-pardon-convicted-police-officers/77889905007/)
and
U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday pardoned Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht, who was sentenced to life in prison for running an underground online marketplace where drug dealers and others conducted more than $200 million in illicit trade using bitcoin.

You are all exaggerating. What is it to pardon 2 people or even pardon 1000 people? This is nonsense. Trump has started the process of deporting illegals, dangerous illegals, and that is millions of people. So let's throw it in the trash as your democratic propaganda.
As for the storming of the Capitol, people are usually forgiven, because these are political events and not everyone there did something criminal.
I would like Trump to put Biden in the electric chair and his advisers, as well as his team. That would be fair.

The evidence is the entire policy of Biden and the Democrats over the past 4 years.

You're an idiot... but what's even more disturbing is that there's likely a lot of Americans who think just like you. Yet when we recall the specter of Nazi Germany people like you throw a tantrum but clearly (as per your comment) you are no different than the N a z i s.
But actually Hitler was Germany's answer to the economic turmoil and political instability in post-WWI Germany. The image below has the caption:
Germans cheer Adolf Hitler as he leaves the Hotel Kaiserhof just after being sworn in as chancellor. Berlin, Germany, January 30, 1933.
Really not much different to political events today...

Be specific.
1. Support for the flow of illegals into the US.
2. No deportation policy.
3. Friendship with totalitarian china.
4. Lifting sanctions against terrorist iran.
5. Inviting putin to attack Ukraine. Biden, even before the full-scale Russian invasion, said many times that russia would not be punished for genocide and the murder of Ukrainians.
6. Ineffective sanctions against Russians.
7. Failure to supply Ukraine with the necessary weapons.
8. As a result, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians were killed.
9. No policy aimed at terrorists in north korea.
10. No fight against drug cartels that import deadly fentanyl-based drugs into the US.

What support?
2. No deportation policy.
Well they seemed to do pretty well without a policy... deporting more than Trump
3. Friendship with totalitarian china.
Define friendship? What exactly did Biden do that Trump didn't, and vice versa... that somehow indicated friendship?
4. Lifting sanctions against terrorist iran.
Biden implemented more sanctions against Iran than Trump.
5. Inviting putin to attack Ukraine. Biden, even before the full-scale Russian invasion, said many times that russia would not be punished for genocide and the murder of Ukrainians.
How did he 'invite' Putin to attack Ukraine?! I'd be very surprised if he ever said ''russia would not be punished for genocide and the murder of Ukrainians". You got a link for that quote?
6. Ineffective sanctions against Russians.
What would you suggest? What additional sanctions will Trump be implementing?
7. Failure to supply Ukraine with the necessary weapons.
What obligation does he have to supply Ukraine with any weapons? Has Ukraine supplied necessary weapons to Isreal and/or Palestine? If not, should Zelenskyy go to the electric chair? If not, why not?
8. As a result, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians were killed.
Did Biden kill them? Surely if they had sufficient weapons already then it wouldn't matter... so they don't have sufficient weapons. Which, logically, means that no world leader has provided sufficient weapons to Ukraine? So do they all need to be executed? Every world leader? Does the fact that Zelenskyy didn't have sufficient weapons in the first place mean that he should be executed?
9. No policy aimed at terrorists in north korea.
You sure about that? Does Trump have a policy aimed at terrorists in North Korea? Did he? Or was it just the odd meeting, handshake, pat on the back, telling the media how much they love each other and then back to business as usual?
10. No fight against drug cartels that import deadly fentanyl-based drugs into the US.
None? So the DEA just sit around playing minesweeper and solitaire in the office all day? The amount of fentanyl seizures doubled under Biden.
I'll ask again... where do you get your 'news' or so called 'facts' from? Is it some crazy Facebook group or weird Youtube channel with the word 'truth' in the name? Do they intersperse their lies with the occasional flat earth and anti-science content?

Yeah, it showed that a slight majority of the country would prefer Trump as their next president. That's pretty much it. For some completely insane reason, you seem to think it showed that all Americans want Joe Biden to be sent to the electric chair.

and, as usual, you just make th ngs up without actually supplying evidenc e or sources
I didn't make anything up. I was asked a question, I answered it. Answering in detail, with references to sources, to other people's questions would be off-topic.
I have covered all these issues many times on this forum, but the topic was deleted. I don't see much point in wasting time and repeating myself.
Biden and the Democrats are political corpses. ;D ;D ;D

So... answering a question in the off topic section is fine, but answering a question in the off topic section by providing a source for your statements... is off topic?!

in my opinion,Trump's attitude is dangerous,and in a certain sense it favors Putin's game,because he is rapidly disintegrating international political and diplomatic relations.
starting from Greenland,which belongs to Denmark and Trump has no right to make these statements and almost threaten Danish Prime Minister Frederiksen.
The Danish Prime Minister has reiterated several times that Greenland is not for sale but Trump perhaps believes he is the leader of the world and has insisted and even continues to threaten to take it by force.
furthermore,he accused Zelensky of having wanted this war,and that it should not have resisted against a militarily stronger country like Russia,and that he instead would have made this war end easily.
Trump is also creating tensions with Panama,Canada,Mexico....
the attitude of "master of the world" of Trump,is rapidly eroding diplomatic relations,which are fundamental in such an important historical moment,and is doing nothing but facilitating Putin's desire to see the Western world collapse.
Trump in my opinion,and I apologize for the frankness and simplicity,but in my opinion he is just another "hopeless inflated balloon" there are many in the world,but Trump is certainly the most dangerous at the moment!
-
furthermore,he accused Zelensky of having wanted this war,and that it should not have resisted against a militarily stronger country like Russia,and that he instead would have made this war end easily.
You've got something mixed up. I don't remember Trump saying that.
But even if he said something like that before the elections, there is nothing wrong with that. The main thing is that he speaks as the President of the United States.

Trump's actions are 100% correct. You just don't know that World War III has been going on for 10 years. They didn't tell you that on your local TV.
Russian orcs, together with the Chinese, will soon occupy the Arctic and Greenland too. This will create a serious threat to all of North America.
Maybe Trump's words are just a scare for the Russians now, but I think that Greenland should be annexed to the United States and a large number of military bases should be placed there.

The same goes for Canada. Canada doesn't have a proper army, Canada can't defend itself in case of war. That's why Canada should become the 51st state of the USA.

In your world, that's probably the case.

Go tell that to your government. Because the German government doesn't know that there is no war and constantly supplies huge quantities of weapons to Ukraine.

Steve, I'm a big fan of discussing political issues here in the forum too. Especially when it comes to American issues, I'm interested in the opinions of people who live in the region.
From months of experience in a now deleted thread because of stoker's misanthropic remarks and insults, I can definitively say: NO DISCUSSION IS POSSIBLE WITH STOKER.
This guy is not really an enrichment for the forum.

It's considerably closer to 11 years than it is 10... maybe they didn't tell you that on your local TV.

the news is from Fox News on January 23rd.
Trump met with Zelensky in Paris in December,and criticized Zelensky for resisting Russia at the start of the invasion instead of making a deal.
he said clearly: "not even Zelensky should have allowed this to happen.He is no angel."
and Trump then continued:"Zelensky decided to fight but he was going against a much larger entity and he shouldn't have done it."
then Trump recognized Ukraine's courage anyway and then said: "Zelensky has now had enough and is ready for peace".
Trump's only real interest is that the United States no longer spends money on this war,and he is willing to end this war even if it means reaching agreements that are unfavorable for Ukraine.
in my opinion Trump is not suitable to be president of the United States,because he is mainly a businessman and thinks too much like a businessman.
the desire to leave the WHO and the Paris climate pact are a further demonstration of this.
Trump is willing to turn the world into gruyere cheese if necessary,that is,full of holes,it is willing to drill even into the center of the earth if necessary to boost the economy,regardless of the environmental consequences.
I think Harris would have been a better choice.

I see that Trump's strategy of using international fears works,just to take a territory full of resources such as oil,gas,diamonds,uranium...
Trump is only interested in the resources that can be extracted in Greenland,if he really wanted,he could establish military bases in Greenland in agreement with Denmark since it has been a member of NATO for over 50 years,but no,he really wants control of the island,control of the resources,and also a strategic military base clearly.
Greenland and Canada are not for sale.

it is already doing it,but the problem is that in Europe we have many different points of view.
However,Italians,Germans,French,Dutch and many other countries are on the same wavelength,and we know how important it is to make Russia and the world understand that war against a sovereign nation is an act that we are not willing to tolerate.
Trump is right about one thing in my opinion,we must invest more in the defense system,more in the military industry.
EU is still very controversial,there are many countries that do not use the euro even if they are in the EU,this in my opinion is wrong to begin with.
then there is Kosovo which has adopted the euro even though it is not yet an official part of the EU,and Spain which condemns the existence of Kosovo,while the majority of Europe approves.
The EU is still full of divergences and contradictions,but we can say that at least the beating heart of the EU is there.

I don't care at all what Trump says, I will judge him only by his real actions and real policies.

Greenland and Canada are not for sale.
What is NATO? It is a cowardly military bloc, which includes countries such as Hungary, Slovakia (Orban, Fico). The Baltic countries are very afraid, because they know that if they are occupied by the Russians, NATO will not even have time to get together.
Only the US controls the security of democracy.
Greenland is an autonomy.
In short, if the US says that it needs Greenland and Canada, then it knows what it is talking about. A military geopolitical foothold is not a cheap pleasure.

Yeh I'm wondering if that bromance is starting to falter though. Trump wants to be seen as peacemaker on the world stage but Pootin isn't accommodating Trump's wishes. The Ukraine / Russia war wasn't an issue during Trump's previous presidency so now this presents a whole new challenge for Trump.

I question why there isn't more support from Europe for supply of weapons. Maybe it's a geopolitical position where other European countries don't want to be seen as directly at war with Russia or they just don't have the finances and weapons to provide more support for Ukraine.
-

Because the EU countries are cowards. They are afraid of everything and they want to be friends and trade with Russian Na.zis and Chinese and north korea.
That's why when I hear the word NATO, only a wry smile appears on my face.
But Trump may change this situation, he is already demanding that NATO members pay 5% of their GDP for defense. Moreover, if the US switches to china and iran and stops aid to Ukraine, then it will be the EU countries that will have to supply more weapons to Ukraine.
War on the territory of Ukraine, who is more threatened by it: the USA or the EU? The answer is obvious to all intelligent people.
Ukraine has no aviation, no missiles, no tanks. The Ukrainian Armed Forces are forced to fight using the methods of the First World War, and this is exclusively a war in the trenches. The number of those killed in such a war is calculated in hundreds of thousands. Ukraine's human resources are constantly being depleted. EU countries are covering themselves from the Russians with Ukrainian blood and are throwing Ukrainians en masse under Russian tanks and Russian bombs. This is the real policy of the democrats. Here's the truth.

In short, if the US says that it needs Greenland and Canada, then it knows what it is talking about. A military geopolitical foothold is not a cheap pleasure.
Greenland is still part of Denmark,there will soon be a referendum to become an autonomous government,but it is still in transition,at the moment it doesn't even mint its own currency.
after the referendum the Greenland government will most likely become autonomous,and the Greenland minister has already supported what the Danish minister said,contrary to what Trump says that Greenland wants to be with the United States.
Who knows,maybe the new government will allow the construction of more strategic US military bases,at the moment there is only one for which the United States pays hundreds of millions of dollars a year to maintain.
if the Greenland government wins the referendum,which should take place by the end of this year,will most likely be interested in strengthening ties with the USA,but will not cede its independence,as Trump would like.

true,Trump's policy is destructive for international relations that have been built with effort in the last century.
his policy focusing on the United States as if it were the master of the world is wrong,The United States is the most militarily powerful country in the world,but it cannot fight the world alone,he would do well to remember this.
Trump also denies citizenship to children born in the US to immigrants,which goes against the US Constitution,I think he forgot that the USA exists because of immigrants.
he is simply a criminal who pardoned himself and is surrounding himself with other criminals,and together they are carrying out criminal acts in broad daylight.

it is already doing it,but the problem is that in Europe we have many different points of view.
However,Italians,Germans,French,Dutch and many other countries are on the same wavelength,and we know how important it is to make Russia and the world understand that war against a sovereign nation is an act that we are not willing to tolerate.
Trump is right about one thing in my opinion,we must invest more in the defense system,more in the military industry.
EU is still very controversial,there are many countries that do not use the euro even if they are in the EU,this in my opinion is wrong to begin with.
then there is Kosovo which has adopted the euro even though it is not yet an official part of the EU,and Spain which condemns the existence of Kosovo,while the majority of Europe approves.
The EU is still full of divergences and contradictions,but we can say that at least the beating heart of the EU is there.
I question why there isn't more support from Europe for supply of weapons. Maybe it's a geopolitical position where other European countries don't want to be seen as directly at war with Russia or they just don't have the finances and weapons to provide more support for Ukraine.
the answer is simple:"because they eat all the money!" :D
the truth,in my opinion,is that many EU members do not have all this money available.
I'll give Poland as an example,who most of all needs Ukraine to push back the Russians,due to its geographical position,and the direct border with the Russian ally Belarus.
Poland,therefore,which should be among the nations most interested in helping Ukraine,has long since withdrawn economic aid and sent weapons,they simply cannot afford it.
not long ago Poland declared:"we gave everything we could to Ukraine"

Trump also denies citizenship to children born in the US to immigrants,which goes against the US Constitution,I think he forgot that the USA exists because of immigrants.
Not from all immigrants, but only from illegal immigrants.
a child born in USA is American,according to the USA constitution.
it is illegal,and in my opinion Trump risks impeachment and subsequent removal from the presidency if he continues to rewrite the constitution as he pleases.

The US better start building more prisons right now. Laken Riley Act.
A migrant who crosses more than once would face up to five years in prison, and one who attempts to cross illegally could face up to 10 years.
The bill also requires a minimum of five years in prison for anyone who has multiple convictions or was convicted of an aggravated felony and then tries to illegally reenter the country.
While the Democrats sheltered and protected the illegals, which got Trump elected, now the sides could be joining to do something.
Laws change as the times change. The old rules about birth right citizens, needs to be revised to eliminate anyone illegal who comes here, just to give birth, which makes their child a citizen. The law was to protect new immigrants, here legally, who were not a citizen yet and welcome new citizen children to the country. It wasn't intended to be an open door for cheating the system, by sneaking across the border, only to give birth, for free and at the same time become a US citizen.

Biden gave Russian Na.zi putin permission and the green light to occupy and genocide Ukraine.
What did putin and Biden agree on in Switzerland? Zelenskyy asked.
(https://img.tsn.ua/cached/534/tsn-e4d2bbace79d9196864837254e47d00a/thumbs/1036x648/74/79/4b4336f418b54cb3772967e8dabc7974.jpeg)
The Ukrainian President reflected on the meeting between Biden and the Kremlin dictator in Geneva before Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted that Joe Biden, the 46th President of the United States, and Kremlin leader vladimir putin met in Geneva on June 16, 2021. However, it is still unknown what putin and Biden agreed on in Switzerland.
Zelenskyy said this in an interview with Italian journalist Cecilia Salli for the newspaper Il Foglio.
"We still don't know what putin and Biden agreed on in Switzerland... You know all of this, all of these details. I think you know most of them, because I think that even we don't know all of the details - we assume," Zelenskyy said. "I'm still very curious about what putin and Biden agreed on in Switzerland. I'd like to know."

I suggest Trump investigate Biden's policy towards Ukraine and put Biden in the electric chair.
-
So... "Biden gave Russian Na.zi putin permission and the green light to occupy and genocide Ukraine" is a factual statement because... Biden said things to Putin, and nobody knows what things he said to Putin, but it's possible that one of the things he might have said to Putin is that 'you have the green light to occupy and genocide Ukraine'?!
I've heard it all now!
So because Trump also said things to Putin that I don't know about, I can also make up absolutely anything and just present it as fact?! This is fun!
Trump should be sent to the electric the chair because, not only did he give the green light to Putin to invade ukraine and commit genocide, he also signed an agreement to work with Russia to develop time travel technology so that the US and Russia could go back in time and eliminate every ukranian that ever existed. They'd then stop ukraine from ever being created in the first place, thus eliminating its very existence.
It also came to light that trump absolutely despises stoker2014, an infamous member in some stock photography/video forum. He said that although he loves the poorly educated, stoker takes things too far, and portrays his fans in a bad light. trump was of the opinion that stoker might be a Biden plant to make him and his supporters look bad.
How do I know all this? Well, trump and Putin have had a bunch of phone calls and meetings over the years, and although I don't know everything they spoke about, they probabaly said all that stuff at some point. So it must be true.

SpaceStockFootage, I have never voiced my personal opinion on this issue. It was all the opinion of Ukrainian experts. But in this case, it was already voiced by the President of Ukraine. He voiced it quite clearly, and made it clear that he believes that putin agreed with Biden on the bloody war and genocide in Ukraine. Therefore, replace my nickname in your trolling text with the last name of the President of Ukraine.

in fact it's been normal for every other president for meetings to be recorded and transcripts recorded. but trump had many meetings that were never recorded & nothing is known about major discussions w world leaders

it's neither a rule or a law it's the 14th amendment to the constitution and no one can change or ignore it w/o another amendment - which takes 2/3 vote in congress & 3/4 of states to approve.
at the time it passed, there was no such thing as an illegal immigrant; rather the 14th amendment was one of the 3 important amendments passed after the civil war - it was designed to grant citizenship to and protect the civil liberties of people recently freed from slavery

So true in so many ways, and a different time. There was no transcontinental RR. If someone walked in from Mexico, or Canada, they were in territories, in many cases. Colorado, North Dakota,South Dakota, Montana, Washington,Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Arizona were not states. To get someplace else, it wasn't like things are today. Travel was difficult and fraught with perils.
People came in on a boat, and many through the Ports, legally, with papers and documentation or without, but they registered as they entered the country. There were quotas after that. But here's the big one... "there were no federal laws governing who could enter and who couldn’t until the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882." So there's your point, that there was no illegal immigration, until then. :)
70% of the immigrants came in through New York city. Most of the rest came in on the West coast. In 1892, the federal government opened a new immigration processing center on Ellis Island in New York harbor. All of my Grandparents came in through Ellis Island. People didn't migrate or walk in, and the railroads were something new, cars didn't exist. It wasn't at all anything like now.
My answer, which I know is just too simple and ignores the politics, division, special interest groups, debate and all the potential conflicts, would be create a new amendment that says, The 14th amendments does not apply to anyone, giving birth to a child, if they are here illegally. Done, door closed, all the appropriate protections remain in place.

my grandparents came thru in 1900 also - but in the 1920's immigration from southern Europe (non-aryan!) was mostly stopped until the 60s
good luck in getting any amendment passed w a 2/3 senate vote in current climate! much less 3/4 states - the ERA amendment was active for over 20 yrs & couldn't get enough states to accept it - today it wouldn't even pass congress

Thank you.
Such a policy is not a matter of one day. Unlike the Democrats, Trump is trying to do something. People who go to the goal can reach the goal, unlike people who do not. The Democrats' rating can continue to decline and it may happen that Democrats will no longer be in politics.

Yes, right and correct. Compromise and negotiation are words that were used in the past to describe how the politics of the US functioned.
Speaking of that, bring back the ERA amendment and pass it properly. Even if it's not necessary because of the way the laws are now, I'd say the ERA needs to be on the books, for the future.
I have relatives in Argentina and Canada, because, they couldn't get into the US due to quotas and limits. Both sides of the family in Canada, a bunch of the Italians in Argentina. My Aunt in Windsor said they went there and worked, planning on moving to the US later, but found they liked Canada much better. :) Right across the bridge to Detroit, who would have imagined that? ::)
In Wisconsin Wurst First would mean, you have a Brat, before the rest of the meal. I'm sure that will confuse many people reading here, but I'm going to attempt to drop out of the political shouting match. It's just to senseless and futile. I'll make breakfast instead and enjoy my day. Many photos to edit...
