Everyone has voted on the Foxx amendment. (There are three vacancies in the House.) McGovern, arrowed, is sitting there just shitting and pissing himself with rage, even though he was the one who orchestrated that ludicrous performance earlier of lining up each Dem to make a "unanimous consent request."

Anyhoo, they're all still sitting around like something new is expected to happen instead of completing the vote. Won't the Speaker just tell them to adjourn for the night once it's finalized so they can keep hounding the holdouts?

@Catch The Rainbow unironic ping because you're the guy among us all who's most intimately familiar with the realities of AIPAC and any fallacious accusations people make.

To what extent is the AIPAC tracker dude accurate, and to what extent does he just go off the rails and use AIPAC Tracker to attack people he has a hateboner against? If that question is faulty, please tell me why. A lot of us here ain't /pol/ rapefugees who choke on groyper conspiracy bullshit; there is a vested interest among disaffected American citizens that want to know who this PAC really is, where their influence is most prominent, and what politicians they endorse.

If you have any front-facing resources for AIPAC meant for the general public that go unnoticed, like press releases or specific policies buried under menus, even better. Please, for the love of God, don't be threadbanned. I'm legitimately interested and engaging in good faith here.

Biden also deported 4 million illegals in 4 years.

While it also dealt with record numbers of illegal crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border, the Biden administration also rapidly increased its deportation efforts over the past four years. Over 4.6 million people were removed from the U.S. between January 2021 and November 2024, according to government data, with March 2022 seeing the highest number of people leaving, at 147,080.

Looks like Trump and Homan are just compensating for the fact that they can't beat Biden's high score, so they started targeting dumb peasants working on the fields.

I hope eventually the Indian obsession comes home to roost. This happens with both online shit and IRL shit.

They lie, on mass, to scoop up jobs wherever and in whatever field they can get. No background checks, just taking them at their word. They get on by with a light bit of help, chatgpt, google, and let luck carry them as far as they can.

In theory you too could do this IRL but that's the difference between us and the developing world...

I do know a guy who lifted all his subpar grades in high-school/college from Ds and Cs to As and Bs to get into his desired university but I digress.
He did get his degree.

Every single Indian I've ever worked with clearly didn't pass high school, much less have an engineering degree. I had one who couldn't do basic arithmetic and another who was slightly better and didn't know what ohm's law was.

Too many rich Republicans have millions and millions of dollars invested in their machine gun collections for that to happen. I know a few and they'll fight harder to preserve the NFA than the Dems will.

Here is the data:

On June 4, President Joe Biden announced new measures to restrict asylum eligibility for those apprehended while trying to enter the U.S. illegally across the southern border.

Apprehensions of those crossing illegally have gone up significantly during his presidency. Behind the increase is a spike in migrants seeking asylum. While asylum application figures aren’t broken down by how immigrants enter the country, the overall statistics show nearly 89,000 asylum applications in the U.S. in fiscal 2021; in fiscal 2023, the figure was nearly 479,000.

Less than 15% of those seeking asylum were ultimately granted it in fiscal years 2022 and 2023, according to Justice Department statistics. But all of the applications have created a growing backlog of cases, which can take several years to get to court.

Biden issued a proclamation to implement steps to decrease such crossings and ease the load of processing asylum applications. While proclamations are often ceremonial declarations, this one contained specific changes to immigration procedures that are destined to be challenged in court.

This is why Trump and co have to stem legal migration too.
DEC. 19, 2024 — The U.S. population grew by nearly 1.0% between 2023 and 2024, according to the new Vintage 2024 population estimates released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.

As the nation’s population surpasses 340 million, this is the fastest annual population growth the nation has seen since 2001 — a notable increase from the record low growth rate of 0.2% in 2021. The growth was primarily driven by rising net international migration.

Net international migration, which refers to any change of residence across U.S. borders (the 50 states and the District of Columbia), was the critical demographic component of change driving growth in the resident population. With a net increase of 2.8 million people, it accounted for 84% of the nation’s 3.3 million increase in population between 2023 and 2024. This reflects a continued trend of rising international migration, with a net increase of 1.7 million in 2022 and 2.3 million in 2023.

Biden didn't actually deport 4 million people. They started counting people turned away at the border as deportations under Obama, that's why it looks like they're better than Trump. It's all lies and spiritually brownoid demoralizer dumbfucks that uncritically accept what the media tells them.

I like how Biden's handlers went "Oh shit letting people stay and do nothing while """processing""" them is actually unpopular, quick lets do something IN THE YEAR OF THE ELECTION!" It also doesn't help that we know that they'll """deport""" people and then they'll just come in through a different area, often with the support of local, state, or NGOs. All Biden/Obama/ect did was try to restrict where illegals could come in in order to not have race wars, which worked until mexicans now had to deal with all the niggers of SA and increasing cartel presence because Biden's handlers were extra retarded and had no idea how to politick.

Fatstacks at least serves a purpose by being a reverse oracle.

But you're not even the fun kind of dumb with the things you post. The figures cited for Biden's "deportations" include people just turned away at the border. the numbers Trump is running up currently are specifically people ICE is going out and finding already in communities.

These numbers are presented disingenuously and just reading the linked article with a little reading comprehension makes it clear. You either know this and are being a shitter, or are too dumb to understand the data you're reading. My money's on the latter.
