I understand keeping track of people entering this country. We can't make it too easy, or every bad person from everywhere would come here, but I also recognize that is a miniscule percentage of actual immigrants. That's why we really need to have due process, because we're probably kicking out a lot of people that would become good taxpaying citizens. But that's all a separate issue.

I'm enormously concerned with this MAGA strategy of sending ANYONE, including criminals, to third countries, and only to those with serious records of human rights abuses, where they will serve life sentences for no crime other than trying to seek a better life for themselves and their families. And it's all done without any lawyers or courts.

Sure, they're just strangers from a strange land, not our problem. But if we let MAGA do it to them, then it's only a matter of time before they do it to the rest of us.

It's supposed to be a prevention measure. Most people aren't gonna take a weapon to a club but you frisk all of them to discourage the one who will. How the US uses it is entirely bonkers.
