The Trump administration has begun flying undocumented immigrants from the US to a military detention facility at Guantánamo Bay in Cuba, the White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, said on Tuesday.
Leavitt told Fox Business Network that at least two deportation flights were “under way”, but gave no further details.
Her comments, however, appeared to confirm reporting by the Wall Street Journal, citing an anonymous official with knowledge of the operation, that about a dozen immigrants were onboard one flight from Fort Bliss, Texas. The newspaper said an additional flight had departed on Monday.
CNN later reported one of the flights had “about nine or 10” people onboard who were detained in the US without valid immigration documents.
Where are you going to send them? Many times the immigrants home countries deny they are their citizens and refuse to accept them back. What do you do then?
Are you suggesting that imprisoning them indefinitely is somehow the correct solution?
It’s a fair question. Got nothing better than to deflect with another question?
OP is asking for a solution. I ain’t got it. Do you? I’m listening, really I am.
Suppose it doesn’t matter what we think as this administration will do whatever the fuck they please, but it’s at least a fair intellectual exercise.
It’s such a fair question that literally at no other time in America’s history did a president feel the need to use an extrajudicial torture prison as a deportation zone. WhAt CoUlD pOSsiBlY bE tHe AlTeRnAtIvE?! Idiot.
There is “no correct solution”. What would you suggest?
Who says they’re planning to send them anywhere?
That is what deportation means, to send them back to their country of origin. If their home country refuses to accept them or denies they are their citizens then what do you do then?
They’re sending them to their auntie’s farm up north
