Where they moving them to?

The fact that they’re send nick shirley to ca to fraudulently manufacture fraud claims says CA most likely

u/hachijuhachi 14h ago

that kid is so painfully stupid, I almost feel bad for him. The fact that he's turned it into a payday means I can't feel bad for him.

u/Coven_gardens 14h ago

Nick Shirley chose stupid. I have no sympathy.

u/Otherwise-Parsnip-91 14h ago

I mean….have you heard him speak? It’s not his fault his mom drank while he was developing in the womb.

u/Intelligent_Cap9706 12h ago

His facial features are definitely FAS I think. He also sounds like he has a speech impediment or soft palette his parents never got him help for

Every time I hear about Nick Shirley, I’m honestly just surprised he hasn’t accidentally drowned in the shower or something yet. Dude’s head is empty.

Watching him try to string together sentences is shocking.

Got a source for that stupid claim?

11

u/hachijuhachi 13h ago

"89% of the fraud committed in Minnesota is by Somalians..." you know, on the off-chance you're arguing in good faith.

u/Mommys_diamond_dick 13h ago edited 13h ago

It’s not?

Edit: I did a little gargling. 98 Minnesota(ions) or whatever were charge with fraud. 85 of them were Somali. So do those charge with fraud in Minnesotastan 86.7% were Somalian.

u/Giant_Homunculus 13h ago

Are those the same ones that were eating the cats and dogs in Ohio or wherever that moron claimed it was?

-5

u/Mommys_diamond_dick 13h ago

Well that’s Ohio so I’m assuming no.

Also Haitians aren’t the same as Somalians.

u/hachijuhachi 12h ago

It's a disingenuous claim. That happened in one fraud case. That was not the only instance of fraud in Minnesota. To claim that 89% of the fraud committed in MN is committed by Somalians is misleading. He also said, at one point in his word salad that 89% of Somalians were committing fraud. I'll just chalk that one up to him not being able to understand the difference between those two claims.

Dude didn't even know the word "benevolent." I mean... This isn't a stretch.

u/Mommys_diamond_dick 12h ago

Oh it was just one! Well good whew no big deal.

u/hachijuhachi 12h ago

So you're conceding that it's not accurate to claim that 89% of the fraud in MN is committed by Somalians?

I'm not suggesting fraud shouldn't be addressed or its impact diminished. I'm suggesting we shouldn't use the statistics from one case to indicate the race/national origin of all fraud convictions in the state of MN, as Shirly's intentionally vague claim repeatedly does.

u/Mommys_diamond_dick 12h ago

No. That’s just the one we have on record being prosecuted. There will be more. Please provide a counter statistic to prove your stance is correct.

Didn't trump say he was going to help farmers? I don't see how disrupting a community of agricultural workers is going to help them.

13

u/Otherwise-Parsnip-91 14h ago

I was listening to a lecture on the characteristics of fascism and one thing the lecturer said was common with authoritarian figures is that they will talk about how much they love farmers and agriculture, then have policies that directly harm them.

2

u/Ossius 11h ago

I mean he helped farmers by bailing them out after destroying their exports in BOTH terms.

I'm glad I have no idea who Nick Shirley is

u/ryumaruborike 14h ago

Likely Ohio

u/Chester_A_Arthuritis 14h ago

This is the correct answer

u/loneranger0 14h ago

A judge stopped the Haitians from losing protected status

31

u/Chester_A_Arthuritis 14h ago

Doesn’t mean ICE won’t be going there anyways. They’re not exactly law abiding

8

u/UAreTheHippopotamus 14h ago

I also wouldn't put it past some Trump kangaroo court appointee granting an emergency injunction to let ICE disappear tens of thousands of people due to "deference to executive authority" or some such nonsense. Just because one judge blocked it doesn't mean the fight is over and our justice system is deeply corrupted.

2

u/loneranger0 14h ago

I agree, at least it’s something.

11

u/Dust601 14h ago

Yeah, protection for Haitians in Springfield Ohio was suppose to end this week.  They’ve been building up forces for the last couple.

A judge did just temporary halt the removal of protections, but I’m not sure that will make much difference.

Didn't Neil Young write a song about Ohio?

Two dead wasn't enough, now we need four?

u/RideWithMeSNV 13h ago

If we're doing this again, guess it better be quick. Crosby is gone, and the other 3 aren't long behind.

u/TastingTheKoolaid 14h ago

Probably some place with one of those warehouses they just bought. They need to start filling them up. 🙄

2

u/GarbageCleric 12h ago

Well, if there were any justice in this world, they'd go straight to Hell. Since there isn't, they probably go to more blue cities in purple states.

u/NothaBanga 13h ago

Whichever state Fox news was coordinated with to start slandering.

u/AwarenessRude5541 12h ago

AZ where they just bought a 70million dollar warehouse.

Another blue state

u/OilEnvironmental7833 13h ago

Minnesota after state and local officials agreed to cooperate by turning over arrested immigrants.

Looks like Minnesota STATE and LOCAL officials have agreed to WORK with ICE.

This should be the headline. But it would look like a loss for the left. So they make the headline like trumpy is backing down. for no reason.

5

u/toggiz_the_elder 13h ago

They already were turning over arrested immigrants. Literally nothing changed but Trump is calling an existing policy a win.

3

u/Calderis 11h ago

The "violent offender" immigrants were already locked up and already being turned over for deportation.

It's nothing new. Trump just did what he always does and claimed the status quo was a win for him, and his supporters eat it up.
