Yeah, this would happen under basically any administration.

No, most administrations would recognize she's not a threat and would let her go home and make her attend a court date in the future to sort it out. Locking her up for weeks doesn't protect anyone and it doesn't solve anything. They're doing it just to be cruel.

That's not the point. Don't be pedantic. The point is that she shouldn't be in custody at all. They had the option of letting her go home with a court date. They chose to lock her up for weeks instead.

We have idiots up here too.

Also we didn't stop counting cases.

It just comes off as cruel and judgy like a juvenile tween.

Just how conservatives like it.

Sounds like the meeting was just long enough for Trump to receive his new orders.

Wikipedia defines an invasion as:

An invasion is a military offensive of combatants of one geopolitical entity, usually in large numbers, entering territory controlled by another similar entity, often involving acts of aggression.[1]

Attacking Mexico would be an invasion.

Just don’t call any of this a plan for an invasion, U.S. government officials implore.

Go fuck yourself. It's an invasion.

Thorward said border officials had the discretion to grant Shaw humanitarian parole rather than detaining her.

There was no need to imprison a non-violent offender who had been doing everything legally and made a mistake in not renewing the travel authorization.

They should've released her and given her a mandatory court date.

How could anyone look at what's happening in the US right now and think "count me in!"?

A "copyright liability"?

Another reason we need to overhaul patent/copyright law.

People still use Google search? It's been terrible for years now.
