ICE no longer recognizing CT state pardons

This is from CT where pardons are issued by a board and not the Governor, same as in Georgia but apparently ICE recognizes those pardons.

“I actually reached out to some of my colleagues that practice in Georgia and they’ve indicated that indeed ICE does honor those pardons,” she said. “The only difference that I can see as someone who is not at the agency, is that one state has policies that are arguably very favorable to ICE’s position, whereas the other state does not.”

Now I'm sure all those "small gov't" & "states rights" conservatives will be all over this story and objecting to what ICE is doing, right? Maybe tomorrow night's lead for Hannity?

Well, at least there shouldn't be any Zyklon-B in her immediate future..

There’s a lesson to be learned here...maybe we shouldn't recognize Trump's pardons once he's out of office.

No, because immigration is mandated as a power delegated to the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IN THE CONSTITUTION.

Did you read the article?

“Courts, including federal courts, have before considered Connecticut’s pardons to be effective with respect to federal immigration purposes,” said Connecticut Attorney General William Tong. “Under federal immigration law, if you receive a full, absolute and unconditional pardon from your state, you are entitled to an automatic waiver of deportation."

Was it through pure serendipity that your reference to Nazi's was the #2 reply?

So what? States have the right to pardon. To accept pardons from any state to forego deportation is to accept them all. This is just an exercise in chickenshit authoritarianism, a long time ICE favorite.

Challenged, indeed.

...wait, that is your name right? ...lemme see....ah, fuck it, too lazy. Close enough anyway.

No, it was merely an observation of history repeating itself.

Is there a reason why that would bother you enough for you to ask that question? Just curious.

I'm curious as to what he's challenging? who has the lowest IQ? who can run the fastest head first into a brick wall?

I got it, he did the pod challenge and forgot to spit out the detergent.

Hey Perknose see what I mean?

 

[senseamp]

Trump has a lot riding on government recognizing pardons, seeing how he is going to have to pardon himself and his whole family and cabinet to keep them out of jail.

Hey Perknose see what I mean?

Is this the desperate wail of a snowflake?

Wild guess, you also have complained about sanctuary cities before?

Maybe if you jump up a little higher, it won't zoom over your head.

Lol, maybe you should respond to the actual story at hand instead of posting drivel. People might take you seriously then.

I get high enough smoking weed to see that you were were triggered by that post. Gee, why was that? I'll take another hit and get back to you on that...
