I was thinking more along the lines of registering them, fingerprinting, DNA
sampling and giving them work cards to allow them to earn their keep during
their stay. You know, kinda like we used to do at Ellis Island but updated for
the 21st.

Actually, Biden made some good economic decisions that staved off a recession
and have provided much-needed infrastructure and business boosts. Well over
60000 projects, and, ironically, most of them benefitting the people of red
states.

Unfortunately, the fruition of these efforts will come during Trump's term,
when he can take credit (again) for his predecessor's efforts... if he doesn't
turn around and tear them down.

Take heart. The Republicans will crash the economy again and the voters will

You should have included more of the initial paragraphs of the story:

(CNN) – President-elect Donald Trump’s border czar Tom Homan has privately
told Republican lawmakers to temper their expectations for the incoming
administration’s initial deportation operation, citing limited resources,
according to multiple sources involved in the conversations.

While Trump’s allies have floated measures to detain and deport people
residing in the US illegally, the plans largely depend on the resources and
funds available to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which historically
has had budget shortfalls.

“We are not having a discussion about 20 million (deportations). We are
having a discussion about an order, and priority, and expectation,” GOP Rep.
Darrell Issa, who was in one of the meetings with Homan, told CNN.

Trump was lying to the Trumpswabs about how many he intended to deport, and the
Trumpswabs — gullible knuckle-dragging dolts who can't tell chicken shit from
chicken salad — gobbled it up. Everyone who voted for Trump thinking he was
going to deport ten to twenty million "illegals" is a fucking fool.

The right-wing mindset:
o Social workers rescuing abused children: Jackbooted thugs!
o Military rounding up U.S. citizens: Great idea!

| ...
| But some in the U.S. military fear next time could be

Oh no - "unnamed sources" and political. Must be absolutely true...

Eyeroll.

Oh, and given that the illegals invaded our country, the use of
military forces to remove them is justifiable.

I will have no issues paying for it and most Republicans wouldn't
object to it. The government spent four years of allowing unchecked
invasion by illegals and our country has paid the price for it.

There are named sources in the article. Kremlin Girl

The word "source" does not appear in the Politico article. More than a dozen
named people are cited. *One* unnamed lawyer is cited, saying "I think things
are going to be bad, really bad. This is going to be worse than last time. Trump
is angry. He desperately wants to turn on his TV and see guys in uniform on the
streets."

Please cite where I've "complained about a paywall that didn't exist".
I can only think of one case where you claimed it wasn't and I double
checked and it was.

Lastly, when starts a thread, they are supposed to lead with their
strongest point. You led with unnamed sources.
