I highly doubt he said that, you may want to provide a direct quote and source if you are going to throw that out there.

Illegal alien is a legal term and conflating legal and illegal immigration is disingenuous to the conversation.

You should probably just... google it? https://www.npr.org/2024/09/18/g-s1-23667/vance-haiti-migran...

This was widely reported at the time, thanks for playing.

Just as I suspected, spin.

They were specifically talking about Haitians and the TPS status.

He's saying they had no right to do that under the law.

It's the same mess they got us into with DACA.

So you have illegal aliens, protected under these very fragile and most likely unconstitutional EOs, when it's really not their authority.

I partly agree with your original statement "changes to suit those in power". Yes, that is the problem, when Democrats are in power.

It is the authority of CONGRESS. Vance is respecting that authority and saying he's ignoring the blatant disregard of it during the Biden admin.

I'm all for adjusting our immigration laws. But things like TPS and DACA just cause more problems.

Until then, enforce the current laws on the books.

Those other programs are revoked just as easily as they were added, because that's not how you do it.

Implying democrats use of executive power is the problem in the current situation is laughable at best and genuinely bizarre given the current administration's actions across so many avenues.
