And some people really do need asylum.
If there was any evidence that he wasn't living right while in the US, he would have been jailed and deported to a different country.
The Trump administration didn't produce evidence like that in 2019 or in 2025. In fact they've admitted that he committed no crime while here other than simply being here without a proper visa.
Dig those heels in, Mike.
Enjoy arbitrary and capricious government!

What a reach.
And if even if that story is true, it shows he had tried to stop affiliating with that gang.

Dems: Billionaires need to pay their fair share.
Trump: Okay start with Harvard's $55 Billion endowment.
Dems: That's fascism!

Just my opinion ... any non profit or charity that is tax exempt should be taxed if the overhead is greater than 10-15%. I suspect many are just tax dodges ... no I do not have a link, just a suspicion of mine. Seems interesting anyone who has a bunch of money has their own ....

I agree in principal but it would be pretty hard to enforce. Foundation A would hand off 85% of its spending to Foundation B, and Foundation A would say look, that 85% is not overhead, but then Foundation B is controlled by the same people, and they get to keep 15% of what Foundation A gave them, and you can go on down the line if you have enough motivation and chutzpah.

Yea I see what your saying. A "broker" like deal the United Fund that got in a bit of trouble many years back. That particular tactic can be legislated out by eliminating the brokering of fund raising. They are de-facto fund raising organizations whose employees earn a living doing just that. Tax them like any other business. There are actually degrees in running a non profit available which in fact supports my point.
Trump Announces Big Trip – First Time In 82 Years
President Donald Trump plans to travel to Fort Knox, Kentucky, to ensure that the stockpile of gold that has long been reported to be stored at the military base is there.
“We’re gonna go into Fort Knox to make sure the gold is there,” Trump said.
According to the U.S. Mint, the last time a gold vault was inspected by individuals other than authorized personnel was during President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s visit to the Bullion Depository in 1943 — 82 years ago.
Trump made similar comments in February, telling reporters, “You know that? We’re gonna go into Fort Knox. Do you know about that?”
“One of the things we do want to look — I mean, we hope everything’s fine with Fort Knox, but we’re gonna go to Fort Knox, the fabled Fort Knox, to make sure the gold is there,” he said.
“Where would the gold have gone?” a reporter asked.
“If the gold isn’t there, we’re gonna be very upset,” the president replied.

Dem senator's El Salvador trip might violate law liberals used as pretext for Michael Flynn probe: critics
The Logan Act of 1799 prohibits unauthorized foreign negotiations
Sen. Chris Van Hollen’s, D-Md., sudden trip to El Salvador to try to free deportee Kilmar Abrego Garcia is getting the attention of critics who believe the Maryland Democrat may have violated a 1799 law prohibiting unauthorized diplomacy.
The Logan Act – named for former Pennsylvania Sen. George Logan – stipulates a fine and/or imprisonment for Americans corresponding with foreign officials "with intent to influence the[ir] measures … in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States."

There's only one hard and fast rule of the political forum, and the one mod that still hangs around just broke it. Just turn the lights off before you leave, will you?
