The Administration is actively revoking legal immigration status to deport people. This should disturb the just-not-illegal-immigration crowd.

One more sob story to justify 21 million illegal immigrants. The only reason for Biden/Mayorkas parole was to circumvent the law requiring detention. Parole does not grant legal immigration status. It's easy to do a little research before making derogatory comments about people who do not approve of illegal immigration.

The app was literally getting people to apply for legal migration processes.

Just emphasizing how much legality doesn't matter to some, it's that they are immigrants.

Show me where immigration parole grants legal status. Has nothing to do with app. It just gave Biden/Mayorkas a way to adjust statistics of illegals crossing border. Legality means nothing to them and their apologists.

Being in process for an asylum claim is being in a legal immigration process.

Sure. But acting like they are illegal is not correct: they were in the legal process.

They'll go with it, because their issue isn't whether it's legal or not - it's that immigration is happening at all.

You have described Trump’s revival of the Know-Nothing Party of the 1850’s. GOP has untethered from it’s creation roots.

Congress needs to revoke POTUS's ability to tariff, and likely to declare an emergency too. In regards to both, if anything: make it that POTUS can request Congress do so, and it's a privileged motion that must be voted on within say 1 week.
