Ohio Sen. JD Vance, former President Donald Trump’s running mate, on Saturday evaded multiple questions about whether Trump’s proposed “zero tolerance” policy on immigration would lead to family separation.

    I can tell you exactly how it will play out. They will move all the “immigrants” to centralized tent cities like the cunt in Arizona used to house prisoners. Then they will build border camps to act as transit stations and start moving people there to then push them back across the border. Then as they crow about how efficient and well their machine runs countries like Mexico will tell the US to get fucked and won’t take the “immigrants.”

    Somewhere in there, someone with private prison donors will come up all by their lonesome with no help from private prisons that these “immigrants” on the border would make for cheap labor to build a border wall, and oh, by the way, we could rent this “immigrant” labor out to farms to pick crops.

    Eventually, they will run out of “immigrants,” and they will start on suspected “immigrants” and naturalized citizens because did they really do it legally, or did those dirty Dems just green light the green cards? Basically, brown people better have papers or you go back to brown people’s land.

    All that will end in some good old slave labor because let’s face it, USA loves it some slave labor. And if they start dying just don’t worry about it, you can be assured they did the very best they could to save those dirty subhuman brown peo…I mean “immigrants.”

    Aren’t Biden’s refugee camps still resulting in family separation? I haven’t been informed of any changes on US immigration procedure changes since Trump.

      From the article, attempts to improve things are blocked:

      When President Joe Biden and Harris first took office, Biden rescinded the Trump-era zero-tolerance policy and established a family reunification task force that found that more than 5,000 families were separated under the policy.

      More recently, the Biden administration worked with a bipartisan group of senators to craft a comprehensive immigration and border security plan that seemed to have buy-in from both parties on Capitol Hill.

      But GOP support for the bill tanked after Trump indicated his disapproval of the plan.
