    So, sending them to an El Salvador prison, without a conviction or even any formal charges? That’s the Party of Law and Order, everybody!

    Man, I sure hope that this doesn’t blow up in their faces and they eventually get kidnapped, I mean deported to sunny El Salvador.

      Yes, I also hope it doesn’t blow up in their faces and a crazy Minecraft player doesn’t decapitate the justices who voted in favor of this.

    Curiously, does the Bible actually mention anything about this topic?

      The most straightforward one is from Leviticus (one of the books that has a bunch of laws for the Israelites, including stuff like “don’t wear mixed fabrics” and rules that evolved into kosher rules, along with stuff that’s cited for “don’t be gay” (though a lot of that comes from Paul’s letters too)):

      Lev 19:33-34 “When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.”

      On how to treat people? Mmmnnnnno, no i don’t think so. Maybe there’s some obscure fictional work from the 1700s we could reference.

    To be fair, if they’re deporting US citizens, they can’t deport them back into the US can they? Have some sense /s
