America is now legally cruel and stupid.

BREAKING: Supreme Court Greenlights Mass Deportations “These words mean nothing to us.”

By Adam Kinzinger

“The Supreme Court told hundreds of thousands of people who came here the legal way that they can be deported to countries our own government calls too dangerous to visit.

“The President is calling it ‘one of the biggest immigration wins of his second term.’ But there are real human costs to this decision.

“Yesterday, in a 6 to 3 decision split right down ideological lines, the Court cleared the way for the administration to end Temporary Protected Status, or TPS, for about 350,000 Haitians and several thousand Syrians.

“TPS is a humanitarian protection. It lets people from countries torn apart by war or disaster live and work here legally until it is safe to go home. These are not people who slipped across a border. They registered with the government, passed background checks, paid their fees, and renewed on schedule.

“Justice Alito, writing for the majority, said the Homeland Security Secretary has almost unreviewable power to cancel those protections, and that the courts have no business second guessing it. In dissent, Justice Sonia Sotomayor said the ruling “extinguishes the light of the torch of the Statue of Liberty.”

“So, let’s hold that answer up against our own government. The State Department has Haiti on its do not travel list. The Federal Aviation Administration bans American airlines from flying there at all, because the gangs on the ground shoot at the planes. More than 2,300 people have been killed in gang attacks in Haiti just this year.

“Even Republicans are uneasy. Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, who has more than 10,000 of these TPS holders in his state, called the policy “a mistake,” and pointed out that people who were working and paying taxes on Wednesday are now illegal to employ. Nursing homes, where roughly one in five workers is an immigrant, are already warning they may have to close wings and turn patients away.

“The man who built this entire immigration agenda, White House adviser Stephen Miller,could not wait to celebrate.”

“We told these people that as long as they followed the rules, we wouldn’t send them back until their country was safe. They followed the rules. Their country still isn’t safe, and our own government says so. But we’re going back on our word anyway, just to please people like Stephen Miller who has built his career by treating immigrants as the enemy.”
