The trend has continued steadily since then, and furthermore,

Bier wrote in November that his work showed the Biden administration “has removed a higher percentage of arrested border crossers in its first two years than the Trump DHS did over its last two years. Moreover, migrants were more likely to be released after a border arrest under President Trump than under President Biden.”

This is from 2024, the DHS spokesperson at the time:

“Under this Administration, the estimated annual apprehension rate has averaged 78%, identical to the rate of the prior Administration.”

The idea Biden opened the borders is thoroughly debunked. Like I said you’re the one telling me a bunch of bullshit so it’s on you to disprove reality, I don’t care enough to spoonfeed you the facts.

This took 30 seconds to find

Visa overstays have outnumbered people who enter the country illegally at the Southern border every year since 2007, according to a report by the Center for Migration Studies. The report’s authors estimate that the number of total visa overstays was 600,000 more than the total number of border crossers and that in 2014, visa overstays accounted for two-thirds of all new undocumented immigrants.

This article has the most recent data I could find but if you look at the sources you can probably find better info. You’re welcome to prove me wrong.

You’re free to go look at the statistics easily found, I’m not gonna do your homework for you. Were you at the border?

“Improper entry” through illegally crossing a border is a crime, but the majority of undocumented immigrants in the US don’t enter that way. “Unlawful presence” after a visa expires or is denied receives civil penalties rather than criminal, meaning they can’t lead to imprisonment but only fines or a court action like deportation.

Actually it’s a civil offense akin to a parking ticket which is separate from criminal charges.

You call yourself freedomadvocate yet you advocate for the destruction of freedom, interesting.

Do you have the same concern for the thousands of children being held indefinitely in prisons by Israel? Why don’t those hostages deserve release?

It’s difficult to comprehend just how much more wealthy a billionaire is. If you spent $10 every ten minutes, it would take you about 70 days to go through $1 million. To reach a billion would take 190 years.

Not the best sources, a phone smuggled by a South Korean-based organization that is funded by the US National Endowment for Democracy and reported by state owned BBC, both of which are enemies of NK, and nothing in this article is verifiable. I’m not saying this to promote anything about NK but just from a journalistic perspective this article doesn’t prove much.

Has everyone forgotten about the NSA and their absurdly massive data centers? At least a portion of the US population likely has substantial data from their tech in a database we can’t access.

Wasn’t there a court ruling that forcing someone to unlock their phone was unconstitutional? The fourth amendment seems to indicate a warrent at least is required to search someone’s papers, in the modern era that should apply to phones, obviously the constitution is meaningless if they want to do whatever but still.

Edit: in Riley v. California (2014) the Supreme Court unanimously decided that warrentless search of a cellphone during an arrest was unconstitutional.

This is an A-Lister commie board, we have Ryan Gosling too!

Edit: whoops I thought this was a hexbear post but my point stands, less commie though

I mean I’m trying but I could always be more woke probably

I don’t think Hamas has sniper drones shooting children coming and going from hospitals in Israel

The political establishment in Israel does not recognize Palestine, their goal has long been the eradication of the Palestinian nation.

We must make ISPs a public service owned by the people. Who can argue that internet isn’t essential to being a regular member of society? These companies rob us and use their monopolies to manipulate us.

It’s weird the parents that are complicit in this, like how do they justify it in their mind? I had a girlfriend in high school whose mom encouraged her to post risque photos online in 8th grade, taking photos of her with her thong out posing seductively etc, she wanted her daughter to be hot. Maybe the parents are trying to relive their youth vicariously.

But you are right, worse than the random parents encouraging this, the platforms knowingly encourage this sexualization of children because they know the ad revenue it can generate.

Numerous places I’ve lived had contracts with Comcast so there was no option but them, and the speed is shit, maybe they needed to raise prices to pay for their forced monopolies.
