Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Summary

President-elect Donald Trump’s team is reportedly planning to end two Biden-era immigration programs, potentially making hundreds of thousands of migrants who entered the U.S. legally eligible for deportation.

These programs—CBP One and the CHNV parole program—allowed over 1.3 million migrants from countries like Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to enter the U.S. legally.

Trump’s initial deportation focus is expected to include individuals deemed national security risks, such as Chinese nationals of military age, as well as those with criminal convictions.

Legal challenges are anticipated, similar to those seen during Trump’s first term.

I agree, we should deport anyone who wasn't already here by 1350. Make America native again.

/s for the dense

[–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 11 points 3 days ago

But like… not /s.

It's amazing that Latinos voted for this and they're about to get to the find out part so very soon.

Also going to be so amusing in racist America finding out just like Arizona and Georgia did and promptly forgot.

Seriously going to enjoy the schadenfreude and will actually get to sit my minority ass down outside a field and watch white Americans struggle to do the jobs they said they actually want, which they didn't and couldn't handle it the first go around.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago

Yeah, I’ve been waiting to pull the trigger on a new four-bay RAID and I’m gonna do that tomorrow

[–] errer@lemmy.world 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I mean…unless your chest freezer is the size of your garage, its contents ain’t gonna feed you and your family for 4 years

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

And what do you think will happen in four years?

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 0 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Current freshmen will graduate?

[–] eran_morad@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

Bears may shit in the woods.

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Weren't many folks they're referring to also granted legal immigration status under Trump's term, too?

[–] SquishyPandaDev@yiffit.net 28 points 3 days ago

A lot of people don't seem to understand that 2024 Trump is not 2016 Trump. In 2016 a lot of Republicans and cabinet members opposed him. Now Trump has the Republicans fully under his control, willing to do whatever he wants.

Trump’s cornerstone campaign promise… Millions of you let him win by not voting or voting third party. Don’t blame Trump for this. For once he wasn’t lying. Ooh and he has Congress to back him up, too! Checks and balances? Nope.
You can fight back by yelling on the internet or maybe a little protest march (until that’s disallowed). But for fuck’s sake don’t vote until the electoral college is gone and Gaza is free and you have the perfect candidate!
