So please, point out exactly what is false about it?

Honestly good. I was against it, but after seeing how Trump pardoned people so they wouldn't have to cut deals and testify against him to avoid prison, I say good. He should pardon anyone who Trump hates on the way out just for good measure.

Our immigration rules are much different, more complex and have a lot of places where things aren't clear. Which is why we have judges in ICE court who decide things like removals on a case by case basis. I've helped people successfully avoid being deported, even though there was definitely enough cause to do so. Also if somebody walks across the border and immediately surrenders to BP and is asking for asylum, then that is not illegal. So you have to determine what would compel somebody to do something desperate like that. Did you know that if you have even a halfway competent attorney, you can delay removal proceedings for years, be able to claim legal status, work legally, etc while appealing your removal? I've had other ones where I thought it was a slam dunk where we would win and the judge ruled against us. Not for lack of trying. Sometimes it just doesn't go your way. But most of the time I've helped on cases, we've been pretty successful. So short answer, the laws concerning ICE are not exactly black and white. The NCAA rules are very clear though.

Sounds like you've never played sports. Trust me, especially in college, you know everything. Hell even if you aren't on the team but have close friends who are, you know things about their teammates. An old acquaintance played D1 ball and even though he eventually got booted out of school, twice, the stuff he let us non athletes in on would have ruined the football program if it ever got out. So yes I'm pretty sure they knew about their teammate being transgender, but until it became politically expedient, nobody cared. It wasn't like she was the sole reason they were winning.

Which has what to do with this exactly? Is this person also an illegal immigrant?

If it's a safety issue then why didn't anyone say anything or care 2 years ago?

I don't really see why anyone cares that much. As far as the NCAA is concerned, she meets the criteria to be eligible to play. If people are upset, take it up with the NCAA. They made the rules. And honestly, I am just tired of hearing about this crap. Who cares if somebody is transgender or not? I don't.

Nobody seemed to care about her playing for the last couple of years.

Tell me you're stupid without telling me you're stupid. This isn't some simple thing. Like if you go bald, you don't put a wig on and claim that it's real. Or if you're 5'7 you don't insist you're really 6'4. Where both sides are wrong is that there is a simple or easy fix to this. Trump makes the worst argument because he just plays to stupid people who believe things like Haitian immigrants eat pets, Mexicans are all drug traffickers and rapists (he launched his first presidential bid by saying that). We don't have a problem with illegal immigration. I'll maintain that opinion until something changes. Our problem is we're addicted to cheap and or illegal labor and employment. If that wasn't a possibility, then you would see it a lot less. As far as stopping people at the border, short of basically putting up various traps, and ordering the military to shoot people on sight, both of which would be violations of international law, you aren't going to stop people. You probably don't know, don't care and probably won't even read this far because you saw something bright and shiny, but poor and desperate people with little to lose who try coming here illegally aren't going to be easily discouraged. To them, coming here to wash dishes at Denny's is a lot better than what they could have hoped for wherever they come from. So to someone like that, they're going to find a way or die trying. The corpses of the unfortunate ones are scattered all across the Tohono O'odham reservation as proof of that. Have you ever found a dead and decaying dead body like that? I have. It's not pleasant and extremely sad.

The whole thing is stupid. The NCAA and the conferences have rules and guidelines for this sort of thing. If these schools don't like the rules, the NCAA is a voluntary organization and they don't need to be members if they disagree with policies. The NAIA is a healthy alternative.

Sorry that was the Texas Republican Party. It was even in their platform.

Ron DeSantis threatened the same thing.

That's not even close to being the same thing and you know it.

Short of Mexico deploying their military to the border, which is as impractical as us doing it, no you are not going to stop people from doing it. Even if you did that, people would figure out a way around it. Which is why the whole "seal the border" makes no sense. I don't think people realize what doing something like that would actually do, and it would go very very badly for a lot of people. Ostensibly the point of border patrol is to make sure people who don't have a visa or anything don't come into the country. Which is fine if you have say a hostile neighbor. Instead we're just villainizing desperate poor people who are mostly looking to avoid living in extreme poverty. So we are wasting money and resources to protect us from people who want to come here to do menial jobs? And I'm sure you'll say that drugs and trouble come across. I'm sure that along people willing to risk their life to come here and wash dishes at Olive Garden, some have probably less than sterling criminal histories. Drugs on the other hand, the huge majority come through legal ports of entry. So even if you could stop a few enterprising people who think lugging a 50 pound pack of drugs across an unforgiving desert is a good idea, you wouldn't make a dent in drugs coming into this country. The days of guys like Sal Maglua, Jon Roberts, Willy Falcon, Mickey Munday, etc are long over.

Trump lied? Say it ain't so https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c89v4w51dzyo.amp

The governments mentioned don't control the illicit drug trade or have anything to do with immigration to this country. It's basically like saying that if Hollywood doesn't stop letting gay people work on in movies that we are going to put a big tax on movie theater tickets. Mexico can't really do anything for various reasons. This is going to go very badly and the people who will really suffer are the ignorant clods who thought voting for Trump was a good idea.

Just like Trump he can avoid personal responsibility and ask suckers to give him money.

Glad your primary source of news is an app teenagers use to troll each other. I can't see how that could go badly ever.

Benefits of having an Ivy League educated family I guess.

Except I don't just blithely believe whatever Trump and his ilk say and take it as truth.

Honestly I don't think he cares what happens when he does pass away.
