It does not appear that this administration particularly cares about whether or not they're allowed to ignore laws.

That's because everyone else is the enemies of the people! They have a mandate! Get out of the way, so-called judges, RINOs and communists in Congress, the failing Media, and also the low IQ former MAGA people who helped get them elected. This was a landslide! Also, true republicans don't believe in mob rule, we don't have a democracy, we have a republic. Except if our guy wins by 1% then we totally believe in mob rule and have a mandate, compared to that 1% marginal win, what are laws passed by a supermajority? A mere trifle!

It appears the administration is working with the Federalist Society extremists to try to destroy the government as best it can, at least in all capacities not befitting the monopolization of suppression/silencing/violence against anyone it doesnt like.

  This is a funny take. I'm imagining you unironically telling yourself that ONLY immigration laws matter and you're happy the administration is breaking other ones.

  I’m not sure what to tell you if you don’t understand the difference between an elected official actively and purposefully defying the constitution in order to directly weaken our institutions, and people wanting our immigration laws to be less strict.

    You probably don't have to tell me anything, because I'd be right and you'd be wrong. "Wanting" immigration laws to be "less strict" (mass illegal immigration in the tens of millions, sensible) != breaking the law. The mental gymnastics people do to fit in with their chosen ideology is insane to see, worse when your mouths open up and try to explain these broken thoughts.

      I didn't say that. I said it's not the same an elected official actively defying and trying to weaken constitutional law. I'm not sure what kind of whataboutism gymnastics you're trying to pull.

        The kind of gymnastics where they're justified burning our society down because that society dared to give nominally equal rights to colored folks. Claiming it's about immigration law enforcement is just the same disingenuous smokescreen as the rest of their movement's appeals to lofty ideals.

        >Claiming it's about immigration law enforcement is just the same disingenuous smokescreen That’s not a claim. It’s the truth. You guys are totally lost.

        Again, even if I agreed with your take on immigration, it’s in no way equivalent to the guy with the nuclear codes actively avoiding the constitutional framework. Feel free to keep going on about how horrible illegal immigration is if you want. You can keep mentioning it for hours, but it still won’t actually be a real response to anything I said.
