    How can they be undocumented if they’re registered?

      That’s not the point.

      Currently it is a civil failure to be in the US without papers. This makes it a criminal act to not voluntarily register on this list. Since almost no-one is going to voluntarily register (as it will be akin to loading yourself on a deportation flight immediately), it gives them way more leeway for detention and abuse by labelling them actual criminals.

        They already routinely pretend that anyone who crosses a border is a criminal in their rhetoric and will find a random bullshit misdemeanor something in 99/100 cases where they want to, but, yeah, this would give them another way to do that. I struggled a bit with laughing at this one because there is a real sinister intent here (thank you for highlighting it btw), but it is also just such smooth brained fascist behavior that I couldn’t help myself.

      If they don’t register, they are committing a crime. This bolsters his base by saying that the ones he deported were ones that had committed a crime, and not just any immigrants.

    I don’t know how to tell you this but you can register and undocumented since they haven’t registered in the first place.

    Right?

    I guess the A-file and a 918 weren’t enough?

    said in a statement, referring to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. “If you leave now, you may have the opportunity to return and enjoy our freedom and live the American dream.”

    So I guess this is the advantage, if someone wanted to return later.

      As others have mentioned, Kristi Noem and her glorious leader lie almost every time their lips part. Anyone who believes her about this is a fool.

      This is what Kristi Noem, a racist sociopathic puppy murderer who lies easy as breathing, says is the advantage. Beyond the fact that she made mouth noises that sounded like those words there is no informational value to be found in any of her statements.
