The defense of this will be that “it’s not amnesty because there’s no path to citizenship in the bill” and “muh fines” but at the end of the day it’s allowing millions of illegals to stay in the country legally, have kids who will be citizens, be counted in census which determines congressional seats, etc

The only good thing we got is the border shut down (for now). Other than that, MAGA is over.
No mass deportations
No SAVE Act
No DOGE
Amnesty
Neocon wars
Gas $4+
4th Quarter GDP revised down to 0.5%
Ukraine/Russia war still going
Epstein coverup
Lindsey Graham endorsement


Did MAGA ever start?

Yea- it takes time to put this together correctly, instead of hasty mess like last term

I'm going to make a thread about this "effort" on deportations as more of the cases are making their way through the appellate system...

But Trumps "efforts" have been unreal- and he did it the right way this time he pushed the envelope on everything you possibly could to get the litigation started as early as it possibly could to create a framework that is workable.


We are talking over 700 cases - with 162 where policies are at least partially halted


There are over 34,543 detention-related habeas corpus petitions, This exceeds the combined total from the prior three administrations.


And what is going on- Trump is not only winning these critical ones in appeal or scotus- he's winning the game changing critical policy ones with many of the best ones yet to come.

I.e (with many more i'll note in a thread)

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-supreme-court-backs-trump-aggressive-immigration-raids-2025-09-08/


In scotus 36 of 39 matters so far with strong immigration success

A few Appeals examples

https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/us-appeals-court-halts-nationwide-rulings-rejecting-trumps-immigration-detention-2026-04-01/

For this one above - it's the mandatory detention without bond one.

This is one where over 350 judges ruled against Trump- and now Trump has one on appeal in 3 different circuits (8th, 5th, and 9th) this for all practical matters seals it.

This is a prime example where Trump has to work through the legal headwinds first- on multiple layers before functional able to do "mass deportation" everyone is cheering for.

It's no point in having giant detaining raids if you can't even detain them very long or even deport them.


All this stuff has to be worked out, is being worked out, and every single possible aspect of it has been thrown out as soon as it could from the very front to get it going.

I've already hit some of these points- but I'm gonna touch on this GDP revision the left keep faping over...



Coming of a +4.4% 3rd quarter GDP...


What he saw in the 4th quarter was private growth.

-When measured from ​the income side, the economy grew ​at a 2.6% rate in the  4th...
-Final sales ‌to private domestic purchasers, which excludes government, trade and inventories, grew 1.8% in the 4th...
-Growth in consumer spending was 1.9%

-Real GDI (gross domestic income) is growing at a 2.6% annualized rate and 2.4% total.


All your basically seeing is the Government shutdown result....












As that one PHD dude puts it "There is no developed economy growing in the private productive sector and in real net wages as the United States. Period."

-It’s a House bill that’s been referred to committee since its reintroduction in July 2025 and has seen no meaningful progress toward a floor vote...

-It doesn't have support in the senate

-when asked about it Trumps admin communicates "White House says Trump will ‘not support amnesty’ when asked about Dignity Act"

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/white-house-says-trump-will-not-support-amnesty-when-asked-about-dignity-act/ar-AA1IO02m



And somehow, this is the "GOP" plan
Yes, (R) proposing legislation and with (R) cosponsors, is a GOP plan.

Trump says he wont "support amnesty," so expect bills like this which may not be, *wink wink*, technically amnesty, with so many meaningless provisions that must be first met in order to give permanent residency to anyone who can make it over the border/tourist visa, etc, so long as they arent raping Americans..

Reagan is the perfect blue print for why voting against any form of amnesty is the only solution.

PS, Bush original gave amnesty as well.

Yes, George H.W. Bush (Bush Sr.) granted a form of amnesty that expanded upon the one signed by Ronald Reagan. American Immigration Council +2While Reagan's 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) granted legal status to nearly 3 million people, it left out many spouses and children, creating "split-eligibility" families where only some members were protected. PolitiFact +1Bush's "Family Fairness" Policy (1990): 

After Congress failed to act on the family issue, Bush used his executive authority to establish the Family Fairness policy.Scope: This action provided a blanket deferral of deportation and work authorization for ineligible spouses and children of those legalized under Reagan's law.

Impact: It was initially estimated to cover up to 1.5 million people, or roughly 40% of the unauthorized population at the time.

Codification: Later that year, Congress codified this policy into law through the Immigration Act of 1990, which Bush signed to promote family reunification and update legal immigration levels

Why when I copy & paste anything into this site, it turns into one giant paragraph that I have to go back and try and separate, not too mention not being able to bold/highlight anything??

RIKTERS is getting angry.

I’m not even fervently in favor of mass deportation and illegal immigration is not even a main topic on my priority list. But I’m apparently to the right of the 2026 Republican Party on the issue (And even conformist cucks like Pedo Mark.

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2026/04/15/dignidad-republicans-defy-trump-advance-democrat-plan-to-keep-350k-haitians-in-u-s/

The leading Republican proponents of the “DIGNIDAD Act,” a broad amnesty for the nation’s 11 to 22 million illegal aliens, have defied President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda — helping Democrats advance a plan to keep roughly 350,000 Haitians in the United States through Temporary Protected Status (TPS).

Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX), who has led the charge against Salazar’s DIGNIDAD Act, equated TPS for Haitians to a “backdoor amnesty.”

“I have one of the largest Haitian populations in the country in my district,” Lawler, who has recently been making the media rounds to defend his support for Salazar’s amnesty scheme, told the Washington Post”

Voting in favor of Haitians, whose legal family members will still vote against you like 93-7

Strong strategy
