No, they weren’t! Quote me the legal text were the judge says that. You can’t, it’s not in there

Oh really? From the legal documents that YOU linked above, on page 9/13:

The respondent argues that the Immigration Judge clearly erred in determining that he is a verified member of MS-13 because there is no reliable evidence in the record to support such a finding (Respondent's Br. at 6-9).

Then further down on page 10, the second judge:

We adopt and affirm the Immigration Judge's danger ruling (IJ at 2-3)

Lets go further - Page 12:

The Court first reasoned that the Respondent failed to meet his burden of demonstrating that his release from custody would not pose a danger to others, as the evidence shows that he is a verified member of MS-13.

Page 13:

Regardless, the detennination that the Respondent is a gang member appears to be trustworthy and is supported by other evidence in the record, namely, infonnation contained in the Gang Field Interview Sheet. Although the Court is reluctant to give evidentiary weight to the Respondent's clothing as an indication of gang affiliation, the fact that a "past, proven, and reliable source of infonnation" verified the Respondent's gang membership, rank, and gang name is sufficient to support that the Respondent is a gang member, and the Respondent has failed to present evidence to rebut that assertion.

So on this:

Same as anybody. He should be given his court case.

What court case? He admits to being an illegal immigrant. He was determined to be an MS-13 member. He was ordered to be deported in court. Trump invoked the Illegal Alien act which was used to deport him regardless of any withholding status. He had his days in court (he could have had more but he decided not to show up, even admitting that he lied about not knowing about them).

So after all that, do you want to change what you said here?

Once it’s been found true beyond a reasonable doubt by a court, it is no longer alleged. Judges only say alleged when they mean that something is unproven. It’s pretty simple, I don’t how this is confusing to you.

The Judges here determined that he is a member of MS-13. It's pretty simple, I don't know how this is confusing to you.

Firstly I'm not in your country.

Secondly, you are arguing that an illegal immigrant who had TWICE been ordered to be deported.......should not only be allowed to stay in the USA, but to be brought back from his country (el salvador) into the country he was in illegally (USA).

Then you're calling me a "traitor" hahahahaha

Yes it was alleged - and the courts agreed with the allegations and found them to be true TWICE.

What don't you understand about this?

lol ah yes, reading the facts of the case makes you a bootlicker. Good one.

lol I don't, and I'll just direct you to the first paragraph of my previous post.

BTW are you saying that what they are reporting the White House/DOJ are saying is incorrect? Not that the white house is incorrect, but that what that site is saying the White House is saying is incorrect.

The subs deal has always been insanely stupid. It’s like when we spent like $10bil on a few fighter jets a while back - if China came knocking looking for an invasion, having 6 subs and a few dozen fighter jets may as well be a few mosquitos buzzing around chinas ears. Completely pointless.

No one is coming to invade Australia. We’re too far away, too barren, and we already give away all of our resources for almost free to anyone who asks.

Our military strategy should be “yeah nah she’ll be right” because we have nothing to worry about in terms of an army from another country pushing a full scale invasion.

Our bigger issue is that we are currently just welcoming in immigrants from anywhere in record numbers, and have been selling all of our land and assets to China and other countries for decades. We’ve imported ~20% of our population in the last 5 years, mostly from China and the Middle East. You know, 2 of the 3 places that are the most likely to invade/start a war with anyone, alongside Russia. Our government is essentially selling our country out as it is with welcoming arms, so there is no need for any military invasion.

Are there any actual examples of price rises due to tariffs that we can see? I’m not suggesting they’re not happening, I just want to see how much the retailer/importer increased the price so we can see if they’re using it as an excuse to rip people off by increasing the price even more.

A 10% tariff on a $1000 RRP item isn’t a $100 increase unless the item is being sold at cost price. So if a $1000 laptop goes up say $50 to $1050, that would indicate that the cost to the retailer was $500 and they’ve passed on the entire 10% tariff. If they sold that same $500 cost laptop for $1100 then they’ve slapped an extra $50 price increase on top of the tariff.

Would love to see a site that exposed companies that raised prices over and above the tariff increases.

It was this, it wasn’t just that more people were home more.

Covid didn’t make people pirate, the studios did. When it was just Netflix and it had everything and it was a reasonable price, piracy went down because Netflix was easier, affordable, and a “fair” price.

Then every studio started taking their stuff off Netflix so they could make their own streaming service, and all of a sudden the streaming world became a very expensive spiderweb of who makes what, what service is it on in my country, is every season on there if it’s a show, etc.

Then everyone just started raising prices like crazy so you’re paying significantly more every single year (sometimes multiple times a year), while giving you less content. It was a match made in heaven for piracy to explode once again.

People appreciated affordable, reasonably priced access to movies and content via Netflix. That was taken away. No surprise what happened next.

so perhaps that’s why they jumped to responding to me instead

Bingo. Just going through notifications from top to bottom, but I’ll get to them all eventually.

I have a few questions for you:

1. in the court docs was it determined that he is a MS-13 gang member, yes or no?
2. why was the “do not deport to El Salvador” order given? Was it because he was going to be deported for being in the country illegally and a gang member?
3. should he have been allowed to stay in the united states illegally forever? Say he wasn’t deported to El Salvador the other week - what should be done with him?

I’m sorry I haven’t “straight up ignored” your reply, I’m working backwards through notifications when I can. Don’t worry, I’ll get to yours. I don’t ignore people trying to have a conversation with me, I thought that would be obvious to you since you seem to be following my replies.

I “keep parroting” that it was determined in court twice because - get this - it was. The gang member allegations were determined to be true by the immigration court, and then by the next court after that finding was appealed. Do you disagree with those statements?

I will gladly be proven wrong and happily admit when I am wrong, because I value learning over pretty much all else in my life. If you can show me that it has been determined in a court that he ISN’T an MS-13 gang member, go ahead.
