Undocumented immigrants receiving their healthcare and education in the US are one of the reasons I’d like them to be able to stay here legally. As a country, we have invested into these kids, keeping them healthy and teaching them in our schools. These are tremendous resources to invest into people only to turn

I mean, the amount of time you spend waiting is already dependent on a bunch of things. It’s not a first come first served issue, nor is it merit based in any way. My family came here on a work visa through my dad. We were sponsored for a green card through his job, as a result our immigration process took much longer

I’m just gonna come out and say it...are you completely fucking ignorant? Undocumented immigrants do not get a sweeping pass on paying for school, in fact the rates make it extremely hard for MANY of them to ever even consider it. For every million undocumented children, 65,000 go on to graduate high school and 1/10

Yeah that pic makes me glad to live in a country where this sort of excellence and hard work is rewarded, do you have any idea how hard it is to get a 4.5 GPA?

When #SaveDACA was trending on Twitter last week, I joined in. DACA isn’t perfect, but it’s allowed so many people I know to breathe a little easier.

Here you have shown your ignorance. It is NIGH IMPOSSIBLE for someone who is undocumented for that long to apply for citizenship unless they first qualify for not only a nonimmigrant visa and a waiver of their underlying ineligibility. The U.S. is VERY MUCH preventing citizenship or legal visa acquisition. DACA was

It’s truly disgusting the way people actively wish harm on people who are different. I just do not understand when having no empathy became the norm.

ilu, i think it was the right move after all

You are making this stuff up. Very few people go to college for free, and those study abroad things come out of pocket, period. I know! Brown people! So terrible!

Actually, it is exactly like the US is preventing that.

I’m a legal immigrant and I don’t find the idea of offering a path to legal citizenship for people who were brought here illegally while underage offensive at all or a “slap in the face” as you put it. If someone has a clean record, wants to contribute to the country, and become a legal citizen, all the better. But

That’s the thing, DACA isn’t enough for people like my brother to serve in the military. He’s been trying to get into the Navy (or any branch that will take him) since he graduated high school. I served in the Navy for ten years and he’s been wanting to serve since before I even thought about the military.

Don’t forget about the dismiss option for people who are OUTRAGED that a valedictorian earned a college scholarship.

Now playing

“We don’t have confirmation that Secretary Kerry spent the remainder of Sunday in a dark room, sobbing as “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” played on loop”

“I’m putting all my energy into Xmas”

No shit. A better title for this would have been “Here’s Tomi Lahren Using the Daily Show for Free Publicity, Exposure, and a Thin Veneer of Legitimacy and Trevor Noah Haplessly Obliging Her.”

We called the one in my home town Six Flags Over Jesus. It’s across from an outdoor mall now, and they’re the same damn size!

Here’s something you can do to help. The Department of Justice is tallying phone calls regarding those who want the 2016 Vote audited. A shift of just 55,000 Trump votes to Hillary in Pennsylvania,Michigan and Wisconsin is all that is Needed to Win.

I don’t think they will, though. There has been some interesting research done on people who find authoritarian leaders appealing, and I think for all of their loud noises and hateful rhetoric, these are mostly pretty passive, weak people who will only act when they feel some strongman leader has given them permission

AGREED! I travel A LOT for work and have come to accept the fact that sometimes there will be spillover, man spreading, screaming kids (actually ok with this bc NOISE CANCEL HEADPHONES people), etc. on my flights. I sit back and take it because I understand that they probably feel worse about it than I do. Plus I have
