The U visa program strengthens public safety by creating trust between police and immigrant communities. Until 2012, the visas had bipartisan support -- but then Republicans began to view it as an easily exploited pathway to legal residency. Eliminating U visas is part of Project 2025.[image or embed] -- madi mcvan (@madisonmcvan.bsky.social) 8:24 AM Aug 7, 2026

The last immigrants standing in the age of delegalization are the Dreamers"traditionally regarded by both parties as politically sympathetic. In 2017, when Trump's first Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, declared an end to Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or daca, there was some momentum to pass immigration legislation"but by the time the Supreme Court ruled that the way in which the Administration tried to cancel the program was unlawful, talks in Congress had fallen apart. A federal case over the program's legality could eventually make its way to the Supreme Court"perhaps that, finally, might shock Congress into action. In the meantime, the Trump Administration is slow-walking daca applications, allowing recipients to lose their protections while waiting for their next renewals. The Great Delegalization, in ways big and small, continues apace.>/vlockquote> Stephen Miller is America; America is Stephen Miller.

I wonder why Obama only let them apply for temporary status?

"I wonder why Obama only let them apply for temporary status?"
Because Congress failed to pass comprehensive immigration reform.
You would not wonder if you could look it up and do the research for yourself.
Stop waiting for Fixed News to tell you what to think.

DOC says we are Stephen Miller he is right. Our reaction to him. as Americans, should have been much louder and all Democrats and Republicans in Congress should refuse to pass a my bill of any kind until Stephen Miller is fired! Our nation can not move. A head with a self-vowed NAZI as a top advisor to the President! We fought WWII to defeat the NAZIs; every day Miller works in the Wnitd House is an insult to every member of the Greatest generation!

Sounds like if Obama even cared he'd have done something early on.... Like when he had majorities in the House and Senate.

Yes, those immigrants crawled on their hands and knees through jungles, deserts and raging rivers to get here, with their cell phones and chargers along the way.

He did care. About Americans. He used his political capital to attempt to pass comprehensive health care reform (the ACA) For America. Which Americans desperately needed (and still need).
And then spent the rest of his term trying to enact it and protect it from the spite of republicans conspiring to undermine the law of the land.
Maybe you could not see all that from under your rock.

Lemme guess; you think people on public assistance who have air conditioning or transportation, or maybe even refrigerators, are a problem.

When some folks have someone's knee on their necks they can't wait to get their knee on someone else's neck.
Apparently.
