a lot of the mass politics around immigration is based on the misperception that immigration status is a legal category following the structure of criminal law—you only become "illegal" by intentionally violating a rule; this violation forfeits your rights.

They're currently here legally. The admin is abruptly making them illegal, then removing them in a 1940s-style militarized cleansing campaign.

Yes. In the private sector he was always a bad credit risk and he thinks policy rates should somehow also be based on creditworthiness.
Funny enough, back when inflation was raging he used to say lowering rates would cool inflation, because to him servicing his debt was always the biggest expense.

... because of Tariffs we should be paying the LOWEST INTEREST RATE OF ANY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. The Tariffs being charged to them, while bringing in $BILLIONS to us, still allows most of them to have a significant trade surplus, though much smaller, with our beautiful, formerly abused Country." 2/3

well this should be fun for British dual nationals
The change means you'll likely need to travel into/out of your other country of nationality on THAT passport, and into the UK on your UK one.
This often proves QUITE the problem for airline systems, which are usually set up to store only ONE passport number.

I initially reacted to this with fury. Then I thought wait, maybe the reporters (Nicholas Bogel-Burroughs, Hamed Aleaziz, Robin Stein and Haley Willis) tried to frame it as the Feds taking revenge and an editor got carried away? Nope. It’s just fascist propaganda top to bottom.
More than a week before federal agents killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, different agents pushed him to the ground after he spit at them and broke a taillight on their SUV, according to newly unearthed videos. Watch here.

On almost everything – fraud, polarisation, radicalisation, misinformation – evidence suggests that over 60s are in much more urgent need of online protection and education than teenagers.
But that issue gets zero political attention, and is a total non-starter. Nothing good will come of it.
