They want them to come back just to deport them? Really showing their whole ass here

There have been stories of people being stopped at the border trying to leave the USA, imprisoned in harsh camps for months, then deported. This whole program isn't about deporting people, it's about hurting them.

Yeah that's what I'm trying to say they couldn't be more naked and open about it

If you don't get back here and face violent persecution, we're going to take away the hopeful future you paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for already.
