Ok,so democrats and liberals have spent years telling us there are NO illegals on medicare or medicaid. BUT YET when someone starts looking around and using the info to find them, they get upset? WHY? there aren't supposed to be any on it, so if there is,why not get them off something they don't belong on?
The objection is that the medical data of millions of Americans would be exposed without regard to their privacy.
Also, and this is just an aside, Medicare is available only to those that are 65 or older and Medicare has to be approved on an individual basis and the person has to qualify.
And before you say,” I told you so”. Let me remind you that there are countless **** teenagers getting liquor using fake IDs. You don’t hand over all the data of state DMVs to a government that wants to control them.

"The sanctuary state policy is designed to make sure that our state resources, the taxpayer dollars, the public servants that we have, are focusing on doing their jobs — which is not cooperating with the federal immigration authorities. IN other words no respect for federal law.
They have ignored hundreds of judge rulings and even the supreme court.
California is protesting that.
by your administration and ICE, multiple times already.
Federal immigration authorities cannot just attack and kidnap random people
off the streets. They are consistently ignoring the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, 9th, 10th
and 14th amendments, which are all fixed in federal and state laws.
Ask any AI of your choice about it. Do SOMETHING to inform yourself.
I am Dutch, you are American. Why do I care about your Constitutional protections, more than YOU? Do you still remember caring about the Constitution once?
The 5th Amendment says no PERSON can be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process.
The 14th Amendment guarantees equal protection to any PERSON within a state’s jurisdiction.
Why the last? You know you will loose the argument?
So yes, illegals should be arrested and sent back home, but ICE is breaking the law by assuming everyone is 'illegal until proven innocent' and deporting lots of people without a fair legal process. You have masked men, attacking people on the streets with impunity, and you only accept this from Trump, because you are a cult.
Your side has fearmongered for decades that Democrats would do something like this, and now it's your side acting like the fucking STASI, you just let them take away your constitutional rights. Well, REAL Americans will say 'not on our watch', in November.
And the only reason Joe Biden let them all in is they ( the illegal alien) are all potential dem voters. Now shut the fuck up and mind your own damn business.
It is however NOT true at all.
1. Immigration violations are NOT criminal offenses requiring jail before a judge.
Entering the U.S. without authorization is a CIVIL violation, not a criminal one. Immigration courts are administrative courts, NOT criminal courts.
So the claim “all illegal aliens are accused of committing a crime and must be held”
is LEGALLY FALSE.
2. Non‑citizens, including undocumented migrants, have constitutional due‑process rights.
The Fifth Amendment protects "all persons", not just citizens. Courts have repeatedly affirmed that non‑citizens are entitled to DUE PROCESS, including the right to challenge removal.
So the idea that they can be detained or deported without judicial review is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
3. Trump’s policies explicitly reduced access to immigration judges.
Multiple legal organizations document that Trump’s administration has:
- Expanded expedited removal, which bypasses immigration judges entirely.
- Stripped access to attorneys, making fair hearings nearly impossible.
- Implemented “grant and deport” and similar policies, that remove people without proper hearings.
This directly contradicts the claim that “everyone gets seen by a judge.”
4. Trump has carried out mass deportations without normal asylum procedures.
Asylum is a LEGAL RIGHT under U.S. and international law.
But Trump has:
- Restricted or ended asylum access, even for people legally presenting at ports of entry.
- Deported people en masse, including those with valid claims.
This means people are being removed BEFORE they can make their legal case.
5. Deporting people to dangerous third countries without hearings violates due process.
The American Immigration Council documents that Trump has attempted to deport people under the 'Alien Enemies Act' without hearings, a practice that the Supreme Court rejected.
This directly disproves the claim that deportations only occur "after" a judge decides.
6. Immigration courts are overwhelmed; millions wait years for hearings.
There are 3.5 million pending cases, and DHS prioritizes only certain categories.
Claiming that “everyone is held until they see a judge” is impossible and factually untrue.
7. Trump’s policies have broken the immigration court system. Legal experts report:
- Massive “mega‑hearings” with 100+ people at once.
- Hearings appearing without notice.
- Structural changes undermining fairness.
This is the opposite of a system ensuring due process.
Joe Biden did NOT let them all in. They are also not all potential dem voters,
many of them are very conservative. How about the Cuban immigrants?
And don't be a fucking snowflake, this is not a MAGA safe space.
It's pretty damn humiliating that a foreigner has to correct you on your own laws.
Just vote for politicians who obey the law and don't lie to cover up for them.
Your opinions dont matter and I really dont care about them. You are not here to see and feel the affects of illegal immigration. The constant begging in the streets the homeless camps that have piles of trash around them. The illegal immigration policies of the last administration allowed many criminals and terrorists to come into our country and if it takes getting ALL illegals rounded up and sending them back to get these terrorists and criminals out then so be it.
Obama deported more people than Trump yet no one says a word about that. Obama is the one who separated families he started that policy. Trump gets the blame.
I can clearly see that you lean way left. For most policies
I am a centrist. Believing in what the constitution says,
Immigration law here may be broken but its all that we have. The immigration courts have been overwhelmed for many years not just under Trump.
Cubans are a very small amount of the illegals to come here. Chinese came here in vast numbers many connected to cartels, they set up drug labs and create violence here. An apartment complex near where I used to live was shut down and because Tren de Aragua took it over, I witnessed that, I saw the guns I saw friends terrorized for "rent". I saw a once beautiful complex trashed by illegals. From my backyard. Many times I heard gun fire and hoped and prayed no one was hurt. I helped move some friends out under poluce guard to safer locations. I
You are not a centrist, you are far right.
If not, what is the difference between you and the right-wingers here?
What's your opinion on abortion, gay-marriage or LGTBQ-rights in general, religious freedom/secular government? Do you at least have the “leave me alone / I’ll leave you alone” philosophy for that? I think I've seen you support the MAGA idea on that as well. Maybe I've missed some of your centrist ideas, but if you
don't want to say...
You have supported the hard right-wing line on all these issues and I have NEVER seen you push back on extreme right-wing ideas of the MAGA loyalists.
If you don't have ANY differences of opinion with MAGA, then you are MAGA.
If you STILL like Trump more than Obama, than you are MAGA or just a racist.
The only thing Obama did was being half black, while Trump is telling and reposting KKK/NeoNazi propaganda. He is even using Hitler's retoric.
There is even en exodus from hard-line MAGA loyalists at this moment. He is bleeding his base. Only hardcore MAGA is still supporting and defending him.
You think of your own ideas as common sense, because you get fed them 24/7.
If you watch any other ideas, it's only for rage-bait. Face it, you're NOT a centrist.
If you cannot tell me anything concrete about your disagreements with the right and your agreements with the left, than you are NOT a centrist.
I indeed lean way left. I am an active member of the Socialist Party. I don't pretend to be anything else. I just don't have all the straw-man ideas that your side puts
on the left. The Socialist Party addressed tensions around immigration and multiculturalism before the issue became mainstream in Dutch politics, while center-right and right-wing parties supported large-scale labor migration during the postwar economic boom, because employers demanded additional low-wage labor. The SP is still the most anti-labor immigration party and proposes real policies to reduce it, while our populist right-wingers didn't get anything done,
in the year they dominated politics until they pulled the plug. They tried illegal policies together with CUTS on the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND), the agency that is needed to send back asylum seekers that don't have a legitimate claim for asylum. That only worsens the problems we face.
That's INTENTIONAL, because they need problems from asylum seekers for people to keep voting for them. They don't want solutions, they want problems.
In the meantime, they betrayed all the other promises they made to their voters.
The only difference between them and Trump is that Trump is doing everything that the law and Constitution should protect against, while our Rule of Law held.
On everything else, he is betraying his voters completely. If you don't see that,
or you keep defending it, than you are NOT a centrist. Or very stupid.
If I am wrong on any of your ideas, I'm here for it.
It provides more time to implement a new law rather than just slamming the door and prompting huge, depilating expenses.

Major Zohran Mamdani is eliminating lots of regulation that is NOT designed to protect Consumers, Workers, Competitors, Innovators, Local communities or The public health, but has skewed to favor large corporations instead. Or they are indeed intended to protect the citizens, but their implementation was very inefficient. He manages to simplify or eliminate regulation, WITHOUT negative effects on the people who regulations should protect.
The Newsmax article focuses entirely on financial relief for supermarkets, failing to mention significant downsides for the environment, public health, workers, and industry innovators. By delaying the transition away from high-potency hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants from 2027 to 2032, the rule change allows super-pollutants that trap thousands of times more heat than carbon dioxide to leak into the atmosphere for an extra five years, worsening the long-term public health impacts of climate change.
Furthermore, the decision actively punishes domestic manufacturers and innovators who already spent billions of dollars to develop eco-friendly alternatives ahead of the original deadline, leaving their investments stranded while foreign competitors advance.
Finally, changing the rules mid-game creates confusion for HVAC technicians and workers trying to manage inconsistent standards, and because the legal supply of legacy chemicals is still shrinking, the delay could actually trigger severe supply shortages and higher repair bills for local businesses.
Potassium bromate is already banned in the EU, Canada, China, India, and California because of cancer concerns. This would be something that Robert F. Kennedy Jr would ban, if he actually believed in protecting the citizens from harmful chemicals in food.
from being poisoned, and he didn't get it. He's defending deregulation, by saying
that the poor 'small' business New York Pizza will be harmed, if the evil socialist
forces them to stop poisoning consumers. And it isn't even true.
No sign of understanding that this wasn't his best argument ever
and no sign that he will learn anything from being this wrong either.
If these owners of pizza restaurants don't know how to make a pizza without potassium bromide maybe they should consider a career change.
It's like when Domino's famously overhauled its entire core recipe in the US around 2009 to 2010 after publicly admitting their crust "tasted like cardboard", their expansion into Europe required a completely different, long-term operational
and chemical shift.
Here's what Domino's had to do to get Europeans to eat their pizza:
1. Cleaner Ingredients (Regulatory Adjustments): American fast-food dough relies heavily on sugars, artificial dough conditioners, and preservatives to survive long shipping times. Because European Union regulations strictly restrict or ban many
of these chemicals, Domino's had to completely strip down its recipe to a much simpler, cleaner formula.
2. Less Sugar, Lighter Texture (Taste Preferences): European consumers overwhelmingly rejected the heavy, dense, and sweet "cake-like" crusts popular in the United States. To match local continental palates, the company formulated lighter, crispier, and more authentic "Italian-style" thin crusts.
3. Fresh, Local Supply Chains (Logistical Shift): In the U.S., dough is heavily chilled and shipped long distances from centralized factories. Because Europeans expect fresh bread, Domino's had to reinvent its logistics by building local regional hubs
in Europe to deliver fresh, unfrozen dough daily, or by shifting to mixing the dough directly inside the local stores.
Having worked in Italian/Pizzarestaurants for decades I can assure you that undercooked pizza is not as uncommon as you may think.

It will be very easy to attack Paxton on his record of rank corruption.
Exactly the type of opponent that a real populist can use to his advantage.
Even if Talarico loses, it will cost a fortune in attack ads, that takes away from others.
one American 🇺🇸 talking about the problems here
And 2 commie bastards bashing him
These people think it is perfectly fine for muslims to kill over 3000 people in 1 city and then 25 years later literally be running that same city they tried to destroy.
Please explain to me how that makes sense?
Fucking dumb ass Democrats
fulfilling his campaign promises, while serving the Rule of Law and The Constitution.
People are not defined by their religion, but by their actions. If you cared about
The Constitution, you would understand that.
I am not fine with a traitor who attempted a coup, lying his ass off to fool the people into voting for him, while a billionaire is spending hundreds of millions in an illegal bribing campaign, then directly after getting elected starting to misuse his powers, abusing the immunity he got from his political pawns, and doing the exact opposite of everything
he promised and promised not to do.
Trump had used the term "peacefully" or similar just ONE time.
Trump had used the term "Fight" or variations like "fighting" 20 times.
He is just a stupid parrot and him having been there is irrelevant.

The Speaker of the House does not have the constitutional or statutory authority to command, deploy, or decline the National Guard. Because Washington, D.C. is not a state, the D.C. National Guard answers directly to the President, who delegates that command to the Secretary of the Army (Ryan McCarthy) and the Secretary of Defense (Christopher Miller).
Capitol security is managed by the Capitol Police Board, which on January 6th consisted of the Capitol Police Chief, the House Sergeant at Arms, and the Senate Sergeant at Arms. While the House Sergeant at Arms reported to Pelosi, the Senate Sergeant at Arms reported to Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. There is no evidence in the official DoD or Capitol Police logs that a formal request for 10,000 troops was ever submitted to or blocked by Pelosi or McConnell prior to the event.
His claim "I was there, so I know that it's Pelosi's fault!" is BULLSHIT.
He is just parroting the lies of your corrupt partisan media.
But, yes, the calls of Pelosi and Schumer went unanswered for a long time.
According to the official Department of Defense (DoD) logs and congressional investigations, Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senator Chuck Schumer called the Pentagon at 3:19 p.m. to frantically demand immediate military backup.
The calls made by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senator Chuck Schumer, and other congressional leaders to the Pentagon were answered, and the Department of Defense (DoD) did eventually act on them. However, there was a 3.5-hour delay between the time the Capitol perimeter was breached and the time the National Guard actually arrived on the scene.
The delay was caused by the following chain of events:
Political Hesitation Over "Optics": Top Army generals delayed approval because they were intensely worried about the political appearance of sending heavily armed, uniform military forces into the U.S. Capitol, fearing it would look like a military coup or escalate the riot.
Paralyzing Bureaucracy: Rather than issuing an immediate command to move, Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy forced the D.C. National Guard to stay on "standby" for over two hours while a rigid, formal tactical operational plan was drafted and routed through the Pentagon chain of command.
Logistical Re-Equipping: The 340 Guardsmen already on the streets of D.C. that morning had been strictly ordered by the Pentagon to remain completely unarmed and handle traffic control. When the crisis hit, these troops had to be recalled to the D.C. Armory, completely re-equipped with riot shields, armor, and gear, and briefed on an entirely new mission before they could deploy.
President Trump did NOT make any calls to order or accelerate the deployment during the attack. The final order to clear the Capitol was pushed forward by Vice President Mike Pence from his secure bunker, and Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller eventually signed the official deployment order at 4:32 p.m., leading to the Guard's arrival at 5:20 p.m.
Basically, it took the National Guard so long to react to an ongoing coup attempt,
because they were afraid that your side would accuse them of a military coup or
that they were forced to create a bloodbath to stop it. What the fuck is their job?

If employers treated their employees fairly, you wouldn't have a need for unions.
--------------------------------------- added after 11 hours
Personally, I'm not a member of a union, because my employer treats its employees fairly. My girlfriend is a member of a union, because her employer treats its employees less fairly.
Most employers in the US treat their employees a lot less fairly than my girlfriend's employer.
Therefore, I encourage American employees to be a member of a union.
It's possible that some American unions suck, or have horrible management. If so, find one that is better, or organize your collective union membership to make it better, or join or organize the creation of a new union.
When other people disrespect your life, livelihood and property.
When do you need unions?
When your employers disrespect your life, livelihood and property.
You are supporting a president who is 'defunding' the 'employer police'.
And you think that employees shouldn't organize their own.
That's asking for employers who disrespect the life, livelihood and property
of employees EVEN MORE.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By the way the slogan 'defund the police' was not about dismantling the police, it was about transferring tasks away from the armed police, including the funds related to those tasks, TOWARDS OTHER specialized public services like mental health responders, social workers, housing support, and crisis intervention teams. The reason is to achieve that many nonviolent social and mental-health crises are handled more safely and effectively by specialized public services, than by armed police trained primarily for enforcement and control.
“If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.”
Police are trained for enforcement, so when they handle social crises, they may treat them as threats requiring force, instead of care or service problems, which often result in unnecessary escalation, injury, trauma, or death, including cases where autistic children or people in mental-health crises have been shot and/or killed by police.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trump is 'DEFUNDING THE EMPLOYER POLICE'.
Here is a list of 'employer police' damaged by the Trump administration:
National Labor Relations Board
- Leadership removals, quorum disruption

- Current condition: Weakened
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
- Massive staffing cuts, operational freezes
- Current condition: Severely weakened
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
- Budget and staffing reductions
- Current condition: Weakened
Wage and Hour Division
- Reduced enforcement staffing, narrower overtime rules
- Current condition: Weakened
Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs
- Proposed elimination and consolidation
- Current condition: Most endangered
Mine Safety and Health Administration
- Staffing reductions and slower enforcement concerns
- Current condition: Weakened
Department of Labor
- Broad workforce reductions and hiring freezes
- Current condition: Weakened
Department of Justice Civil Rights Division
- Shift away from systemic discrimination and workplace civil-rights enforcement
- Current condition: Politically reshaped in a way critics argue reduces protections
for workers facing discrimination
Federal Railroad Administration
- Deregulatory and industry-friendly policy direction
- Current condition: Weakened on enforcement priorities
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
- Deregulatory and industry-friendly policy direction
- Current condition: Weakened regulatorily
Securities and Exchange Commission
- More business-friendly enforcement priorities
- Reduced emphasis on aggressive corporate accountability
- Current condition: Less aggressive toward corporations and executives
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Trump administration is NOT transferring tasks away from these employee protections towards OTHER services, they are JUST damaged or decimated.

Income from a job is not all about the hourly wage.
It is about the benefits as well. Such as the retirement I am finally able to draw,and the health care .
If employes make themselves valuable to the employer, they will earn a decent wage. If they go in to work with a newspaper and coffee cup and sit on their ass, they don't.
You haven't been around postal workers have you? Laziest bunch of sumbitches that ever drew a breath. and it takes a act of God to fire them. theft, can't fire, come to work dressed like a freak, can't fire them, don't half work, can't fire them. You almost have to kill someone while on the job to even be drug tested, because of the damn union.
You would think he is a billionaire shareholder, instead of low-income working class
who was almost killed by a system that shits on the working class.
in the world, paid for out of people's paychecks to enrich the shareholders of
insurance companies.
By letting employers provide employees health insurance, they have leverage
over their employees, which reduces the negotiation power of employees and
restricts the movement of employees to better jobs.
This reduces the competition of employers for working people, resulting in lower pay
and lesser benefits.
You are just so warped by your system you can't see the forest for the trees. EARN your wage, don't demand it.
Be worth what you get paid, if you willingly don't give a job your best, you don't deserve it.
They have to pay for it somehow and it's not coming out of their profit.
The difference that you don't see, is the difference between you and me.
Using the latest KFF employer benefits data (2025):
Single coverage:
Total annual premium: $9,325
Employee pays ~$1,440 (about 16%)
Employer pays ~ $7,885/year per employee (about 84%)
Family coverage:
Total annual premium: $26,993
Employee pays ~$6,850 (about 25–26%)
Employer pays ~ $20,143/year per employee with family coverage (about 74–75%)
Netherlands (basic insurance):
Average 2025 monthly premium: about €156–€158/month per adult
Annual premium: about €1,870–€1,900/year
Our plan continues, if we switch employer or lose our job.
There are people in the US who are working while having stage 3 cancer,
because they fear getting fired and lose their health insurance.
