The Trump administration is resuming its efforts to deport certain protected Vietnamese immigrants who have lived in the United States for decades—many of them having fled the country during the Vietnam War.
 | The White House again wants to deport certain groups of protected migrants, a reversal after backing away from the policy months ago. |
Trump couldn't deport a swallow in Capistrano,without a court putting a stop to it.

Why haven't those persons living here for decades become citizens??

ReplyDeleteIf there's one group of relatively recent immigrants that have a case for compensation from the US it is perhaps the Vietnamese. Personally, I have nothing against them and on a personal level, actually like almost all of them I have encountered. Unlike Africans and Muslims where I like perhaps 20% of them. Sometime you have to pick your battles, how about Trump focuses on changing existing laws to prevent a future mass invasion from Africans and Muslims similar to what happened in Europe, I don't see a purpose in going after these Vietnamese, they've lived here for decades and are a low crime hard working ethnicity, it'll just be another issue for the diversity fanatics to use against Trump and make it more difficult to get more important immigration problems dealt with. I'd even be willing to bend on DACA if part of the deal is to keep out Muslims and Africans in the future. Politics is about compromise and deal making because there are so many powerful opposing interests determined to have their way.
NBC FABLE(unnamed sources again) OF THE DAY
ReplyDeleteWASHINGTON(NBC) — Despite President Donald Trump's public declaration that he isn't concerned about impeachment, he has told people close to him in recent days that he is alarmed by the prospect, according to multiple sources.(GRA:This is NBC at its worst--inferring that all of Trumps closest advisers are also sources for NBC.Is that believable? )
Trump's fear about the possibility has escalated as the consequences of federal investigations involving his associates and Democratic control of the House sink in, the sources said, and his allies believe maintaining the support of establishment Republicans he bucked to win election is now critical to saving his presidency.(GRA:I have no doubt that a coup over "hush money"--before he became President--is the plan Dems have settled on.)
On Wednesday Trump was delivered another blow when federal prosecutors announced an agreement with American Media Inc, in which the publisher of the National Enquirer admitted to making a $150,000 payment in 2016 to silence a woman alleging an affair with Trump, in coordination with his presidential campaign, to prevent her story from influencing the election.
The agreement with prosecutors in the Southern District of New York follows the admission by the president's former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, that he violated campaign finance laws by arranging hush payments to women in 2016 at the direction of Trump.
“The entire question about whether the president committed an impeachable offense now hinges on the testimony of two men: David Pecker and Allen Weisselberg, both cooperating witnesses in the SDNY investigation," a close Trump ally told NBC News.
The developments leave Trump as the lone party who argues the payments were not intended to influence the election.
They also come as Trump’s search for a chief of staff is in disarray, with no consensus around a single choice in sight after multiple potential candidates have signaled they're not interested in the job.(GRA:Usually,NBC says Trump "is scrambling".They decided to go with "disarray".Next--"running around like a chicken with his head cut off".)
The president has yet to acquire a team to combat the expected influx of congressional investigations and continued fallout from multiple federal investigations of his associates. He’s been calling around to his friends outside the White House and allies on Capitol Hill to vent and get the input. On Wednesday the president wasn't in the Oval Office until noon.
The White House declined to comment on this report.(GRA:Why should they respond to all the "news" invented by the fiction dept.of NBC?The push is definitely on to get rid of Trump next year though.)

These persons are criminals that have made to the USA long time ago? Not even wanted in their own land. Maybe someone will take them.
ReplyDeleteIf you look into the article more carefully, it sounds as if Trump is really just trying to get Vietnam to take people back who have committed violent crimes in the U.S. He is not renewing a previous agreement because Vietnam was interpreting the agreement such that they did not have to take back anyone who came before 1995. I seriously doubt that Trump is going to deport all pre-1995 Vietnamese - for that matter, I would suspect a lot of them have an actual legal status beyond whatever agreement we have with Vietnam so they are not deportable anyway.
