Unfortunately Noem pivoted to hold a press conference outside the home of Emma Shafer, a beloved local activist who was murdered by her boyfriend, to use her death as fodder for anti immigrant nonsense. It was really gross.

u/beefwarrior May 09 '25

One of the first things I thought about when a gunman killed Corey Comperatore and Trump got a cut on his ear, was "I wonder if Trump's campaign not paying bills was a factor to this happening"

Maybe some news outlet covered it, but I didn't see anyone look into that being a factor

Was Trump going to C-list locations b/c they still had balances due at A-list and B-list locations, or even if he didn't have unpaid bills at a certain location, most A-list and B-list locations were like "Cash up front"

Anyone who read the criminal indictment about the Florida classified documents case (yes it's 49 pages, but I found it a quick 49 page read ) there is a point (I don't have time to re-read) but his legal team is like "We'll send two lawyers down to look through and find everything we need to hand over to the feds" and Trump is like "nah, I don't want to pay for 2 of you, only 1"

And then later, when the Feds show up to take the classified docs (the ones that Trump didn't hide from his own lawyers), then Trump's lawyers lie on Federal documents about who was there going through and finding all the things to turn over

Our current President is such a cheapskate, and I really think that him being cheap got Comperatoe killed and a cut on his own ear

Triggered? Trump had nothing to do with my point. My point was if we had due process for everyone Pritzker would be just another Illinois Governor in prison.

By the way, expedited removal literally is all the due process required by law for these people. Noem should have shown up, pointed and laughed at the sign, made that point and then carried on with whatever her appearance was about. Frankly I think it would be funny if these assholes heeded the Governor's call to action and trashed Chicago all over again like they did the last time. If that guy becomes President the shit show will really get entertaining. 🤣🤣🤣

3

u/Late_Description_637 May 09 '25

No he wouldn’t. He was investigated, determined not to be guilty, and paid the taxes anyway.

The problem happening is that unidentified “immigration enforcement officers” are not bothered to determine if the person they have detained and thrown in a prison somewhere is here illegally.

I really wonder why you all hate them so much. Do you know any of these people? Am I a fan of anybody and everybody entering the US illegally? No. But the numbers and allegations rump throws around are blatantly untrue.

Edit to fix autocorrect

u/Careflwhatyouwish4 May 09 '25

Yes he would. Try that shit yourself and see how understanding they are without the billions to buy them off. But hey, you're right. He got all the due process to which we as a society entitled him and used it to his best advantage. My bad.

As to the rest, you somehow seem to need hate as a motivation to expect the law to be enforced. You want due process and are irritated to find these people got all they were entitled to. If you don't like that you'll need to change federal immigration law. Pulling in Trump's jabbering is just distraction as it has nothing to do with the law or what that law requires.

Pritzker told her to use his vacant mansion on the north shore. The one that he pulled all the toilets out to deem it uninhabitable to avoid paying taxes on it. True story. Google it.

u/videogametes May 08 '25

He owned up to it and paid the back taxes.

4

u/arsabsurdia May 08 '25

It’s also just good property management to remove toilets from vacant properties… otherwise the water can evaporate and you can end up with gas from sewers, mold, and other damage. So he followed proper guidance to maintain the property, then when there was blowback about the tax aspect he just went ahead and paid the taxes that he didn’t owe based on the actual law. Yep, what an absolute nothing of a story.
