A very clumsy attempt at fabrication. How stupid does trump think his followers are? Clearly the liar in chief will stop at nothing to convince people.

LOL! That's not even a credible Photoshop attempt. Are we sure Trump didn't do it himself?

Oh, is that what it is? Makes sense.

The literal translation of "chequeo" is "check," meaning they are being "checked out." The statement of one informant supports this supposed rank. It hardly seems like a robust claim.

Regardless of your "facts," the Trump administration admitted they deported him illegally. Courts have demanded his return because he was mistreated. It seems pretty clear he was denied his due process, and that's the real injustice.

I agree. You would be surprised how many people don't know that even illegal aliens still have many constitutional protections.

Maybe Rich can let us know what gang-related crime Garcia was convicted of that warranted him being deported illegally? Oh, right, there isn't one.

You know James, I encourage you and the rest to keep up your support of this guy, I really do.  smile

As I said previously I find it hilarious to watch you guys go to bat, so unbending and so strongly for this pile of Dogshit Wife Beater who punched his wife in the face, threw her on the ground, and abused her, and this is according to her testimony when she took out a protective order on him back in 2021  

This is the pile of wife abusing crap that YOU apparently have decided to make your poster boy is it?  

Tell me something James, would your support of this guy qualify YOU as a Misogynist?  

Maybe you are ready, willing, and able to put up your money to help his Go Fund Me account to bring back this Illegal alien to the US so that down the road he can beat his wife again, or did you already contribute to his Go Fund Me Account??

Let me ask you James, to what ends of the Earth are YOU personally willing to go for this accused wife Abuser?

Let me ask another question James.  Do you have any shame at all for NEVER having started a thread about other women and young girls who were Murdered by Illegal alien gang members?  

Or did you start a thread anytime at all, in criticism of Illegal alien Gang members who murdered a little 12 year old girl named Jocelyn Nungarry, a 12 year old beautiful little girl who was RAPED, BEATEN, TORTURED, SODOMIZED, and MURDERED by 2 pieces of human garbage?  

Perhaps I missed that posting where You gave even the slightest concern for her, staunchly battling for JUSTICE for that little girl Jocelyn Nungarry and her Mother, the way you are just fighting to the ends of the Earth for this wife beating gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia?

Did I miss it?  Did I miss the posting you started joining in solidarity with the mother of Rachel Morin a mother of 5 who was RAPED, BEATEN, and MURDERED by another illegal alien that Joe Biden let into this country?

Maybe you started a thread whereby you got on here when you heard about the tragedy of Laken Riley a young nursing student down south who was RAPED, BEATEN, and MURDERED by another illegal alien let into the country by Joe Biden?  

If so, can you please point me to your responses where you fought as vigilantly for any of them as you are right now fighting for this MS13 gang member?

I'll check back to see those postings you made.  A link is fine.  Thanks!   smile

You are the one who claimed "chequeo" was a rank. All I was doing was pointing out that it means initiate, and that the evidence that Garcia was or is an MS13 gang member is circumstantial at best. He's never been convicted of any crime, much less a gang-related crime.

You know, it's pretty amazing how you can throw up an endless barrage of strawmen, and then claim I'm under some obligation to defend myself against them. I know this will be difficult for you to understand because subtlety and nuance are not something you seem to grasp too well. However, you can support constitutional protections and due process, and still not be supportive of the actions or crimes someone has been accused of committing. That duality is, in a way, the backbone of our entire legal system. I think the real question here is, why are you and other right-wing MAGA types so eager to trample one of the cornerstones of our legal system?

Who knows, maybe Garcia deserves deportation.  That isn't the point though, due process is the point.

Right, and this would be such a simple problem to fix. ICE admitted its mistake. Bring him back, and give Garcia his due process. But nope, they always have to double down no matter what.

That is a fact.

It was stopped by the one court that sided with him, saying that if he went back to El Salvador, he may be in jeopardy of harm by a RIVAL GANG so they gave him a pass.

He also had ignored courts where he had been ordered to appear and he admitted that he didn't show up.

Now, the gang that was supposed to be the reason that he wasn't deported NO LONGER EXISTS, and therefore he has no reason to be in fear of being harmed by them now does he?  

But the fact is that he already had Due process more than once.  

How many times does he need to go to court?  Tell us all.

How many times does he need to go to court? As many times as necessary to ensure his right to due process is not violated.

I'm sorry that you cannot understand that he was deported illegally. Whether you agree with it or not, he was under the protection of a court order preventing his deportation. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's not a valid court order. For crying out loud, Rich, even the SC has told the Trump administration what they did was wrong.

A direct question to James Lacey to inquire about his postings showing concern for Victims of violent crimes, those like females Jocelyn Nungarry, Laken Riley, Rachel Morin, at the hands of illegal aliens.

That way, your excuses, saying that my questions are strawmen to other questions, can no longer be used as an excuse.

Here are my direct questions to you. I'm guessing you'll make another excuse to avoid answering.  

Did you start a thread anytime at all, in criticism of Illegal alien Gang members who murdered a little 12 year old girl named Jocelyn Nungarry, a 12 year old beautiful little girl who was RAPED, BEATEN, TORTURED, SODOMIZED, and MURDERED by 2 pieces of human garbage? 

Her tiny dead body was thrown naked into a ditch by the human garbage, those 2 people who should never have been in this country in the 1st place.

Perhaps I missed that posting where You gave even the slightest concern for her, staunchly battling for JUSTICE for that little girl Jocelyn Nungarry and her Mother, the way you are just fighting to the ends of the Earth for this wife beating gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia?

I'll check back to see those postings you made.  A link to your original postings is fine.  

Now, any of the other leftists here who are bending over backwards for the MS13 gang member Abrego Garcia can feel free to answer the questions above.

I doubt that any will, but here's your chance to show that you are not the raging misogynists that you appear to be.

Thanks!smile

Did you start a thread at any time in criticism of right-wing extremists and the murder, attempted murders, assaults, hate crimes, and various other heinous acts they have committed over the years? What? You didn't? Well, then, clearly you support them, and you are clearly a raging fascist and racist.

What the hell is wrong with you? The absence of criticism doesn't automatically translate to support or approval. Silence doesn't always mean agreement. There are many valid reasons why anyone might be withholding their opinions. For f-cks sake, man, grow up and become an adult before it's too late; you are running out of time.

Excuse me, I'm not going to get dragged down into the muck and mire of your fallacious and emotionally charged arguments. Feel free to conclude whatever you like from that incorrectly, but I'm under no obligation to play your stupid childish games. You never argue in good faith, and no matter how much you blather on about your "facts," you have no desire to come to a mutual understanding or ever acknowledge that the other side has good points. So, enjoy the pigpen you have created for yourself; none of us is obligated to join you.

First, we are not bleeding hearts for criminal illegals. That's a straw man that you keep repeating.

Second, you can't seem to understand that none of us has any particular fondness for Garcia. Instead, it's the fact that in Trump's zeal to show off his ability to deport people, he violated this specific man's rights. The funny thing is, I even remember subject matter experts predicting this would happen, because ICE was moving forward recklessly.

Lastly, I urge you and all right-wing MAGA-heads to keep embracing the word tariff, the most beautiful word in the dictionary. The inflation, reduced economic activity, and empty shelves caused by Trump's trade wars will serve you well in the next election.
