Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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!

They want to deport her for hurting his feelings.
Link to the stupidity
Deport her where? Honestly these people allegedly so freedom of speech are such snowflakes.
It’s code for death camps.
Looks like she is from New Jersey originally? I guess being banished to new jersey is biblically accurate if you consider the movie Dogma to be canon.
I thought they were banished to Wisconsin or Minnesota.
Hmmm.... I might have been heretical then. Been a while since I've seen it, maybe I just subliminally associate Kevin Smith with New Jersey for some reason?
The church was in New Jersey, so that is where they were trying to get to. I happen to have the DVD and watched it within the last year
Ahh, well now I'll have to download and watch it out of penance.
Doesn't matter. First step would be an immigration detention facility. If there's no country to deport her to, she just stays there, I guess. And while she's there, might as well dig a hole, build a wall, or assemble furniture or something to cover the cost of housing her or some shit.
I think we can go ahead and call them concentration camps at this point. That's what they will build on those 1400 acres in Texas, and that's how they'll be used. Convenient bureaucratic mix-ups will enable them to contain immigrants, targeted minorities and political opponents.
Sounds familiar :(
The camps they are building soon.
Much more practical to revoke her church's tax exempt status.
Still makes no sense. She appealed to empathy, and she should be punished?
If she appealed to punishment, she would get empathy
You found the loophole
Madagascar perhaps? Not that anybody would follow up.
Hm, Putting people that openly criticise the party on "a list". Where have I heard this before?
Genuinely scary.
It also happened in the 50s with people the USA government decided it didn’t like the thoughts and statements of. Ruined a lot of lives.
That shows how ignorant they all are, because according to Wikipedia she was born in New Jersey. So it's telling that "deportation" is the first place they go whenever someone says something they don't like.
They know.
I want to deport tRump out the nearest airlock. We can all dream.
The nearest airlock is probably at the closest cleanroom. Not very dangerous for him. But likely very dangerous for whatever is inside that cleanroom.
