I see Trump Derangement Syndrome has hit peak levels with some people.
Melania is currently a US citizen. You can't deport citizens, no matter what you think (without evidence) they may or may have not done 20 years ago.
She posed nude (which I don't agree with but hey she wasn't the one running), which is nowhere near the same thing as having sex on camera for money. And let me repeat: she wasn't the one running.
Enforcing immigration law and preserving our sovereignty has nothing to do with hating Hispanics. Are you saying all Hispanics are illegal? Wow! BTW Trump won 30% of the Latino vote, so why don't you tell them they hate themselves and you know what's better for them? Every country on earth, regardless of race or ethnicity, has laws pertaining to borders and immigration.
I know, isn't it ridiculous how these pro-illegals throw out the race card? As you said, this has nothing to do with one's race or ethnicity. It's about our laws and I don't give a damn what their skin color is. It's not our fault though that most here illegally are Hispanics. Doesn't matter they all need to be deported no matter who they are.
"Stories like this solidify my support for universal (and affordable) healthcare."
If the gov't runs it it will NOT be affordable and many WILL be denied service.
It never ceases to amaze my how many want the gov't to run our heath care when all we have to do is look at the VA.
think something like Medicare which works fine, just expand it and charge more per month, even with a supplemental policy it will be far cheaper than buying a policy on the market and if the Rebus have their way most would not be able to afford a policy no matter what.
A 10-year-old girl with cerebral palsy who entered the United States from Mexico without permission a decade ago is potentially facing deportation after having to go through a Border Patrol checkpoint in South Texas for emergency gallbladder surgery, a family lawyer said Thursday.
Rosa Maria Hernandez was brought to the United States illegally from Mexico in 2007 when she was 3 months old, according to her mother, Felipa de la Cruz, to get access to better medical care. The family lives in Laredo, Texas, and all are undocumented.
U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro, a San Antonio Democrat, blamed the Trump administration for adopting "callous policies" toward immigrants.
Soooo... she's illegal and disabled. Went through a border checkpoint for emergency surgery. Then was detained because she has 0 legal status.
How is this Trumps fault? Aren't these laws on the books way before he came along?
I guess the taxpayers are fronting the bill?
Oh ya, Joaquin? Lets rephrase your tone of speech "ILLEGAL ALIEN". There ya go.
I agree that she should be deported, thing is this was handled very badly, anyone with half a brain knows that there was not need to move her to detention while she was still in the hospital recovering from surgery.
This is 100% untrue. There is no disputing that Melania was working in the U.S. under a tourist visa, which makes her an illegal immigrant and subject to deportation. There is no statute of limitations for immigration fraud, even if you have since become a legal citizen.
The only difference between Melania and most illegals is that she's white. The Trump cultists, if they were truly concerned about enforcing the law, and not hating Hispanics, would push for Melania to be deported.
But they won't, because they don't care about the law. They hate Hispanics and want them gone. Illegal Eastern European porn stars are allowed.
Stay on topic.
Quit trying to deflect.
And your attempt st trying to inject racism fell flat. Liberals have been pulling that card so much it lost its impact. If I were in charge, mass deportations would take effect regardless where they are from.
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
Matthew 25:40
Is this not what many Christians are constantly complaining about? A country that kicks out God can not survive?
It is not ungodly to have national borders and immigration laws that are enforced. Every country has them. And this child has received how much in free medical care? How many billions does America spend on various forms of aid and subsidies and education to illegal immigrants and their children? More than any other country, in raw dollar terms as well as a % of GDP. I can guarantee you that.

Actually, Medicare hasn't been working fine. The cost of providing it has skyrocketed like other health care costs. The costs are just covered up so that people don't see them. This is the problem with socialized medicine in a nutshell. The citizens don't want to think about the costs and they just expect the government to keep things under control. But that's not what happens--at least not in America.
In any event, the real solution to our health care issues in America has very little to do with fighting each other about how pays for health insurance after people make themselves sick with diseases that are almost completely preventable. The real solution is a healthier way of life, which will lead to dramatically less need for health care in the first place, and dramatically lower costs--as explained here:

I do not think Jesus would ask any of those questions. A 10 year old does not figure into our border arguments in any way.

LOL, you and I both know that dream is Never going to happen.

Neither does Jesus.
America paid for this girl's surgery and has paid for her health care ever since she was brought here. They went through a checkpoint, border agents did their job, and the family got caught. I don't think it's unreasonable to have boundaries. We don't have unlimited resources, and allowing the family to stay sends out the bat signal to every family with difficult financial and medical needs that the US will pay their way.
The REAL heartlessness lies in Mexico, where the entrenched, corrupt elite won't give the poor and working classes any chance to move up.
As long as your argument isn't that we are a Chrsitian nation, I'm good with that.
