Delusional Feinstein

[Ben]

This attack on Sessions by Feinstein is rich.

Make no mistake, this is not about public safety. It’s about pushing a false narrative that all undocumented immigrants are criminals.

The criminals aren't criminals. As Wayne Rogers used to say, "If the first word of your argument is 'illegal', you've already lost."

(1/2) @TheJusticeDept should not shift its limited resources to criminalizing undocumented immigrants.

Translation: "@TheJusticeDept should not shift its limited resources to treating criminals like criminals."

I think the senator from California needs to go back to about the sixth grade and brush up on her vocabulary lessons.

Definition of criminal

See criminal defined for English-language learners

Examples of criminal in a sentence

    car thieves, pickpockets, burglars, and other criminals

For another example, "Illegal aliens (otherwise sometimes referred to by liberal bed-wetters as 'undocumented immigrants') are criminals."

Ah,  the posterchild for term limits opens her yap again..

The title is redundant.

Undocumented immigrants are people who have broken immigration law.

Anyone who breaks the law is a criminal.

Ergo all undocumented immigrants are criminals.


What is so damned difficult?

Someone that used to post here claimed that illegal immigrants were not necessarily criminals, in the same way that not everyone who gets a speeding ticket is a criminal.

Illegal immigration supposedly is a misdemeanor.

However, having fraudulent documents, which most illegal immigrants use to illegally work in the USA is a felony.

Or, if not using fraudulent documents, working under the table for cash and not paying taxes is ALSO a felony.

Or is the left going to say that "Tax Evasion" doesn't make you a criminal?

(Which, because I do understand my political opponents, they will brush aside and say "They're just doing what they have to do! It's not the same as YOU not paying your taxes!")

Sounds like an accurate assesment.

The more I see what's going on with Democrats, the more I think they're pursuing the "1984" Orwellian paradigm for totalitarianism.

Feinstein demonstrates this spectacularly well (given the correctness of the quotes) with her obvious example of "doublethink."

https://www.cliffsnotes.com/cliffsnotes/subjects/literature/in-orwells-1984-what-isdoublethink

Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them. The Party intellectual knows in which direction his memories must be altered; he therefore knows that he is playing tricks with reality; but by the exercise of doublethink he also satisfies himself that reality is not violated.

...


The three slogans of the party — "War Is Peace; Freedom Is Slavery; Ignorance Is Strength" — are obvious examples of doublethink. The act of doublethink also occurs in more subtle details throughout the novel.

And here we might add a new party slogan:  

"Crime is legal."

As literary political fiction and dystopian science-fiction, Nineteen Eighty-Four is a classic novel in content, plot and style. Many of its terms and concepts, such as Big Brother, doublethink, thoughtcrime, Newspeak, Room 101, telescreen, 2 + 2 = 5, and memory hole, have entered into common use since its publication in 1949.
