Thread by @tradwifemom on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "So I went to Costco without a membership, I snuck around the card readers, I didn’t want to wait in line to get an actual membership or one day pass. They caught me in the store and asked me to leave or go to the service desk and get a membership. Instead of leaving I demanded free products and food and waved a Sam’s club flag in the middle of their store to show them just how much I love Costco and want to stay. When they still asked me to leave I began stealing whatever I could and threw frozen hamburger patties at security. They should have just let me shop there without a membership, I’m special! I just don’t understand because although I’m a valid Sam’s Club member I was told I could come to Costco for the opportunity to try their amazing hotdogs for only $1.50, and when I got here some people were handing them out for free! Now suddenly no more free hotdogs and I’m asked to return to Sam’s? I need to continue to receive free hotdogs even if it means other valid Costco members will have to contribute a 0.20 cent fee at the door but I DESERVE THIS! Now they are bringing people in from the business office to escort us non-members out to the parking lot!!! Can you believe it? Why would they feel the need? It must be Costcos CEO. I know some of my Sam’s club people have really damaged Costco, and even hurt other customers but this is WRONG! The previous CEO let so many of us Sam’s club members in, they didn’t even check our membership at the Costco doors. They even gave us Costco gift cards to use. Lots of us were in trouble at Sam’s for some pretty horrendous crimes but costcos old CEO didn’t care. This new CEO asking us to leave and now calling in the business office is INCITING my rioting throughout the store, he clearly wants me to go crazy, right? I’m entitled to be here in Costco without a membership, even though some other people waited in line years for their membership I am better than them and more deserving. I’m rallying my fellow Sam’s club members to light fires in all costcos in a certain radius to show them just how much we LOVE Costco!!! Make sure to wear your Sam’s club gear, I had some new shirts printed in bulk for our peaceful bonfires inside the stores! I’ve managed to convince some valid Costco members that I am definitely special and deserving of free Costco membership (of course to be paid for by valid members). Costcos rules don’t apply to me because really my heart is with Sam’s club, I’m just here for samples they hand out and a discount on some decent toilet paper. Costco should get rid of all memberships actually, even though every other big box store has them, Sam’s can keep their walls and membership cards but Costco should transition to an outdoor flea market type of venue. It’s not fair that just members be entitled to $5 rotisserie chickens. Us Sam’s club members are like really mad at the Costco business office people the CEO sent in. Even though the business office people took an oath to defend Costco policies from all enemies, regardless of their membership to Costco or Sam’s. Policy schmolicy! Can I please remind current valid Costco members that it is fascist to love Costco. You must learn to coexist with other chains entering your store whenever they please. Do not show any Costco pride, this is harmful to Sam’s club members and hurts their feelings. Guys calm down, I’ll only burn down one or two Costcos, peacefully. Then they’ll know that, I, a Sam’s club member, truly have a place here at Costco. Some cashiers may get hurt but it’s a price I’m willing to pay (not actually pay, I like things for free). Some Costco employee in Minnesota recently admitted to actually being a Sam’s member, quite the scandal! Even though she’s been voting on the board of directors!! See, we Sam’s goers have infiltrated and influenced Costco at almost every level, if only that darn CEO and CFO weren’t out to get us, why should only Costco members get a say on what products they carry! The audacity!! Some Costco members are saying this is what they voted for when they brought back their old CEO! I can’t believe they’d kick all of us Sam’s club members out! Sure, their prices have sky rocketed and we expected at least a vanilla ice cream cup for free a day. That’s it, I’m putting Sam’s banners up over all the Costco signs, that will convince you Costco freaks won’t it! I want all you Costco members to know that I, a Sam’s club member am excepting and loving of all shoppers, no matter which club you shop at. However, if I see you promoting anything pro-Costco I will instantly label you anti-Sam’s. Opinions are only okay if you agree with mine."

Kentucky acknowledges illegal immigrant tuition policy is unlawful, agrees to terminate it immediately - "Kentucky’s policy of granting in-state tuition to illegal immigrants appears to be at an end after the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) reached a federal settlement with the commonwealth’s higher education council. The Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE) had allowed anyone who graduated from a Kentucky high school to qualify as an in-state resident for tuition purposes, according to WKU Public Radio. That meant students without legal status paid the same as lifelong Kentuckians, while U.S. citizens from neighboring states paid out-of-state rates."
Oklahoma ends in-state tuition for illegal immigrants after DOJ lawsuit - "Oklahoma is the fourth state where the DOJ has taken action over such policies, following similar cases in Texas, Minnesota, and Kentucky... “This unequal treatment of Americans is squarely prohibited and preempted by federal law, which expressly provides that ‘an alien who is not lawfully present in the United States shall not be eligible on the basis of residence within a State ... for any postsecondary education benefit unless a citizen or national of the United States is eligible for such a benefit,” the lawsuit states. Currently, more than 20 states and Washington, D.C. continue to provide in-state tuition rates to illegal alien students."
Weird. Left wingers keep insisting that illegal immigrants don't get any benefits
Lawsuit says Musk's Tesla hires visa holders instead of Americans so it can pay less - "The complaint said Tesla is dependent on holders of H-1B visas, opens new tab for skilled workers, including in 2024 when it hired an estimated 1,355 visa holders while laying off more than 6,000 workers domestically, "the vast majority" believed to be U.S. citizens... The lawsuit was brought by software engineer Scott Taub and human resources specialist Sofia Brander, who said Tesla refused to hire them after learning they would not need sponsorship for employment, an indication they were U.S. citizens. Taub said he was dissuaded from seeking one job after being told it was for "H1B only," and not invited to interview for a second job. Brander said Tesla wouldn't interview her for two jobs though she had twice been a contract employee."

Matt Walsh on X - "Here’s a law that someone in our Republican controlled legislature might want to consider proposing: if more than 10 percent of first or second generation immigrants from a particular country are on any kind of welfare program here, immigration from that country automatically shuts off for 10 years. Immigrants should contribute to our country. It is not our job to contribute to them. I’m being generous by setting the threshold at 10 percent. But even such a high threshold would solve a lot of problems basically overnight."

Mahmoud Al-Mutairi. He’s 33 and he’s from Gaza. He got word that on October 7th, this attack was going to happen in Israel. There are records of him on the phone calling for people to enter Israel, said the border was open, bring your guns, bring your ammo, meet me. He was very excited that this was going to cause a third world war. There are phone records of basically tracing his phone near a Kibbutz where 60 people were killed, including four Americans. And a number kidnapped. He then went to Cairo in Egypt and applied for a permanent visa, also known as a green card, to come to the US. The Biden administration granted him that visa, and he entered the US in 2024.“"
Bill Melugin on X - "BREAKING: Per multiple ICE sources, Jashanpreet Singh, the semi-truck driver suspected of killing three people in a DUI crash on the 10 freeway in Ontario, CA yesterday, is an Indian illegal alien who was caught & released at the CA border by the Biden admin in March 2022. DHS photo of him attached via federal sources. I’m told ICE is placing a detainer request on Singh with the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, where he is in custody on suspicion of DUI causing great bodily injury and gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated. He has not been formally charged yet. Police say Singh was speeding and under the influence, never hitting his breaks, when he crashed into slow moving traffic on the freeway, causing a devastating and deadly chain reaction crash that killed 3 people. The victims have not been identified yet."

He went on to argue that securing the U.S. border “ain’t that hard to do,” and declared that “Trump did a better job. I don’t like Trump, you know, but we should have a secure border Biden didn’t do it.” The remarks aired on The Tim Dillon Show...

ICE in Chicago: Attorneys optimistic detained father of teen with cancer could get released Friday - "Assistant CHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin issued the following statement: "On October 18, U.S. Border Patrol conducted a targeted immigration enforcement operation that resulted in the arrest of Ruben Torres Maldanado, a criminal illegal alien from Mexico. "His criminal history shows he has a history of habitual driving offenses and has been charged multiple times with driving without insurance, driving without a valid license, and speeding. "During his arrest he did not comply with instructions from the officers and attempted to flee in his vehicle and backed into a government vehicle. He will remain in ICE custody pending removal."

In those situations, too, you will often see men being taken away from crying women and children. The fault for that trauma lies with the men, not with the government enforcing the law. We ARE to be kind to foreigners and strangers, yes. We are not to mistreat them. But requiring them to follow our laws to enter our country is NOT mistreatment. And there is nowhere in the Bible that indicates that it is. In fact, just the opposite. Where we see the Bible dealing with immigration, we see a requirement for assimilation and following the law."

10 children rescued from Nebraska human trafficking ring, ICE says - "ICE officers rescued 27 people, including 10 children, during a human trafficking ring bust in Nebraska. The children were under the age of 12 and were found crammed in dirty motel rooms infected with cockroaches with inadequate sanitation. According to ICE, the children and adults were being sex trafficked, and the motel was also being used for drug trafficking. The operation was being run out of motels and eyebrow salons in the Omaha, Nebraska area. Authorities also confiscated more than $565,000 in cash and drugs during their operation."

How does an American citizen prove their citizenship when there’s no due process for people that ICE abducts? : r/IsItIllegal - "Step 1: Check if they have a citizenship.
Step 2: Check if they have a green card.
Step 3: Check if they have a valid visa.
If they don't fulfill one of the three criteria, this means that they are in the country illegally. I don't see what purpose would a court serve in such cases, when they could just run a background check on the information given by the "suspect"."
If you don't have a court verify that someone has no right to be in the country and deport him, that violates due process. Everything must go through a court!

Law enforcement rightly looked over the child until they were in the safe custody of a guardian."
