NY Times Giddy To Find A Smattering Of Republicans “Raising Alarm” Over Trump’s Deportation Tactics

Funny thing, they never cheer when Trump deports actual gang members, rapists, and murderers

Some Conservative Voices Raise Alarm Over Trump’s Immigration Tactics

Influential figures on the right have largely cheered on the opening months of the Trump presidency. But as the administration has rushed to carry out deportations as quickly as possible, making mistakes and raising concerns about due process along the way, the unified front in favor of President Trump’s immigration purge is beginning to crack.

When the administration deported a professional makeup artist and accused him of being part of a criminal gang, the enormously popular podcaster Joe Rogan balked.

“You’ve got to get scared that people who are not criminals are getting lassoed up and deported and sent to El Salvador prisons,” Mr. Rogan, who endorsed Mr. Trump, said on his show “The Joe Rogan Experience.” He added that the case was “horrific.”

Yeah, it was bad, and the Trump admin has admitted fault. Perhaps there wouldn’t be a problem if Biden-Harris and the Democrats hadn’t supported supported bringing in so many illegals. Also, Rogan is not a Republican. He also says he’s not a Democrat. Heck, he supported Bernie Sanders in 2020. But, he felt Trump was a better choice.

When the administration arrested a former Columbia University graduate student who had been involved in campus protests, the far-right commentator Ann Coulter questioned the move.

“There’s almost no one I don’t want to deport, but unless they’ve committed a crime, isn’t this a violation of the First Amendment?” Ms. Coulter wrote on social media.

Coulter has been agnostic on Trump since 2016, when she came out for Chris Christie, and has criticized Trump many times. But, she’s also not much of an influencer in the GOP anymore, ever since that Chris Christie support. You do not see her in articles and on TV much anymore. How often is she on conservative radio? And, she forgot the whole part about Mahmoud Kahlil espousing killing Jews and Americans, and taking over campus buildings violently. And coming on a student visa and immediately being a pro-Hamas protester.

The dissenting voices, which have been limited mostly to commentators rather than elected Republicans, are remarkable because conservatives don’t often openly break with the president. And while the objections have largely been contained to tactics — not the overarching goal of ramping up deportations — the cracks show how seriously some conservatives are taking the administration’s aggressive and at times slapdash methods.

Are we not allowed to have concerns? I’m against doing the tariffs, except perhaps on China, so fast. I think DOGE could slow down on terminations. Do a deep dive on who the people are, are they doing the job, and, is the position necessary. Focus more on uncovering the graft, waste, and abuse. In Democrat World, though, no one is allowed to dissent, at least not out loud. Unless they are pushing to go even more hard left.

“The overarching reality of this administration is that they’re trying to maximize removals — remove as many people as possible,” said David J. Bier, the director of immigration studies at the libertarian-leaning Cato Institute and a former G.O.P. aide on Capitol Hill. “That operating mode will lead to more mistakes, especially when you’re trying to evade judicial review of your decisions.”

Bier has long been anti-Trump on, at least, immigration. He’s a big supporter of unfettered (fake) asylum. And the Cato Institute isn’t exactly a crack down on illegal immigration/fake asylum seekers organization. They’d almost prefer to ignore the issue, because it requires more law enforcement, which goes against their extreme Libertarian leanings. With CATO, and Bier, I find lots and lots of articles of them being against Trump, and the majority of Americans, such as

David J. Bier, Director of Immigration Studies at the Cato Institute, said: “Another term for a nativist president would obliterate America’s legal immigration system, undermine the rule of law, and sow chaos at the border and in the interior. A nativist agenda for the country would harm the U.S. economy, damage its security, and threaten Americans’ civil liberties. America needs real immigration reform, not mass deportation fantasies.”

Does that sound like someone who supports Trump on immigration?

Andrew C. McCarthy, the conservative former prosecutor, made the case in National Review that it was time for the president to “abandon the ill-conceived attempt to deport alleged Venezuelan gangbangers under the Alien Enemy Act,” arguing the administration should shift to more solid legal ground and use traditional federal immigration laws to carry out deportations.

“The Trump administration has done a commendable job reversing the incentives for ‘migrants’ to try to come to America,” Mr. McCarthy wrote. “That is a boon for our security and domestic tranquillity. It also has a variety of humanitarian benefits for the migrants themselves. The president, however, may not just kick out of the country people whose presence here displeases him. We are a nation of laws, not men.”

Well, gee wiz, someone at National Review complaining about Trump? Who woulda thunk it? McCarthy hasn’t exactly been a big Trump supporter over the years. And, yeah, Trump and his people can cancel the visas of people calling for the death of Jews and Americans, who want to destroy Israel and America, who want to turn America Islamist, and support a US State Department designated terrorist group. Who wear Intifada Keffiyes, a symbol of killing Jews and replacing Israel with an Islamic caliphate. With taking over buildings and harassing Jewish students instead of going to class, the whole reason they received a visa.

So, yeah, it’s the NY Times supporting the “Deep State”, failing to do their job as reporters, instead being advocates. And that the Times supports unfettered illegal immigration, even the gang members, rapists, and murderers.
