(5,125 posts)Bunch of traitors breaking the law.
Suspicion of treason is a good enough reason to make them sit in a cell and search all their stuff to see what more we DON'T know about their crazy plot to take the country away from the voters and give it to the MAGA crew.

Abbot and DeathSentece are acting unlawfully because of lack of law enforcement ... for them.

THIS NEEDS TO STOP.
NO MORE TWO SYSTEMS OF JUSTICE IN THIS COUNTRY!!!!

If law enforcement fails to take action, maybe someone else will.

(8,029 posts)Democrats/liberals/moderates are patient people for the most part. We all have our limits. And, though we don't make a whole shitload of noise about it, we're a far more patriotic bunch than the ones who hate our government.

(90,323 posts)... fact the VP of the US went to damn jail on simple bribery charges.
That case was less clear cut that Benedict Donald claiming he fired Comey for investigating him on video.
Now the DOJ is erroring on the side of not going hard after MAGA and that's after they planned and tried to execute J6.
I stop myself from thinking what would the DOJ do if MAGA and J6 were 99% south Asian for instance, justice should be ... more blinder.

(8,052 posts)"DEMS LIVID AT MIGRANT STUNT!" just rewards them. Quietly handle the situation with competence and decency, and then open investigations intended to punch them where it hurts--funding and fraud. Take away federal funding, investigate these flights.

(67,101 posts)people that say outrageous things to one, they need gratification through a reaction from the one being targeted so they can get their jollies off. Saying nothing takes that joy away from them. So, as you say, " Quietly handle the situation with competence and decency, and then open investigations intended to punch them where it hurts--funding and fraud."

(37,158 posts)...the "REPUBLICANS FORGE DOCUMENTS" part.
Abbott, ,too. Also, they will continue to do it. Maybe not on such a big scale, but it won't stop unless these two are held accountable. Almost every day the Republican Party disgusts me more.

(21,117 posts)As I hear more and more, I am simply dumbfounded by both the depth of it all and that they thought any of this was a good idea.
They wanted to give their base a laugh moment, but instead of comedy, they went straight for tragedy. And tragically, that managed a laugh from some of them.
I hope outrage builds over this.

John McCain's ghost with play the Marley role
Lincoln can play the ghost of Christmas Past - how we got here to this horrible situation
Christmas Present can show them a productive meeting of the "Problem Solver Caucus" presenting Bi-Partisan solutions

Colin Powell can be the ghost of Christmas Future telling them to ship up or wind up facing consequences for their heinous actions and being remembered as evil men who failed anyway.

(53,986 posts)Any immigration officials do filled out those false addresses needs to be fired and prosecuted. Any state officials in Florida who directed federal employees the falsified public records need to be prosecuted.

(25,201 posts)The migrants stayed at the La Quinta for several days.
Perla hung out across the street from the migrant center.
Perla is described as blonde, spoke Spanish, but not fluent. She had a Del Rio phone number.
I'm a little skeptical that it was a federal employee. I think there is potential for fraud all over the place.
I don't think documents need to be checked to board a plane at Kelly. Manifests are not required to be submitted like they do at regular airports.

(25,201 posts)Migrants were at the Migrant Center in San Antonio. (They were there legally etc..Everything going as usual)
A women named "Perla" lured them
The migrants were housed in a La Quinta motel for up to five days.
I don't know how passengers are checked at Kelly Field because it isn't a regular airport. There are no airlines and all passenger flights are private charters, public charters (govt charters) or military flights.

(2,809 posts)Has it occurred to DeSatan, Abbott and ilk that politicians historically proposed and enacted legislation and actions aimed at problem solving? Much of the strictly "moral" actions had been left in a dark past with prohibition repeal, and of course religious influences were kept in check until Rsygun Era "Moral Majority" started their leveraging.
Even the veneer of MAGA suggests a return to some idealized moral order, of course led by hetero, WASP males.
Between the book burning bullshit and this wrecklessly dumb maneuver, the question burns "What does this accomplish?"
