The people vetting these migrants knew. You just found out about it from some post on a racist website, and panicked. You asked yesterday why sources matter. That's why sources matter. That racist website wrote that piece in that specific way to provoke exactly that response in you. Now that you know this is neither uncontrolled nor illegal, you can let it go.

I mean, you jumped to a conclusion based off some shady sources (Elon especially so). Not sure why anyone would think a president would implement a program to bring unverified immigrants into the country. That's stupid all around, and it would be one of the most idiotic things they could do in a campaign year. I appreciate that you get your news from some non-traditional sources, and it does add to the conversations on this board, but it's also becoming readily apparent that in recent weeks/months your sources are leaning pretty far right wing conspiracy. I just hope you continue to search for the truth and not fall victim to the manipulation.

Or --- and hear me out --- it could be having policies that are supported by a majority of Americans being cockblocked by Republicans, including Republicans who supported similar policies back when Republicans would get the credit. Not to mention having America's #1 news network demonizing policies they willfully misrepresent as extreme. I will give you the border crisis, which the Biden administration underestimated and obfuscated until they realized it was perhaps THE electoral hot button. But as you and I both agreed, it's not as though a conservative policy is more easily implemented or likely to succeed.

No, but there's a hell of a lot of stuff I don't know about and it's not because it's some clandestine secret from the government. I did always figure there was some process on line that people could use to apply to get into the country. That's basically what this is.

Reading comprehension should be a focus in our schools. The headline states, very clearly, that the word "secretly" is unfounded. It is not a secret. They publish the numbers every month. The AP article gives a breakdown of these parolees by nationality. The racist CIS article that started this whole stupid conversation insinuated that this was some clandestine effort to bring bad people to America. It's nothing like that, at all. America's economy depends on these workers. Yeah, they're a different race than you. That doesn't make it a problem.

This may help explain why he is having such an issue (at least with current polling which can change quickly) with the electorate. Especially when facing a historically unpopular opponent that is basically doing nothing to capture voters outside his own base except tell them to go away. Biden should be cruising to re-election and win in a today’s partisan version of a Regan blowout. His extreme Liberal policies as you mention are preventing this.

you do realize that central nebraska is not the center of the world...right?

It's an appropriate question, but we also already know why.

Why are you so concerned about people who are vetted coming from countries they want to flee into the US? And why do you care if they come across a land border or go through customs in an international airport?

This program has been going on for over a year. Hundreds of thousands of people have been flown in over that time. The news would have reported on it if there was a problem, like violent crime spikes in the towns they've come to, or roving gangs attacking people in their homes. Seems like that should have happened by now, and that would make the news. Or, maybe, these people are just coming here, living quiet lives, getting work and enjoying feeling safe, and they're not a problem at all.

His entire address has been a bribe for money. I vote teachers get a lifetime supply of cheap cigarettes & cold beer. and a raise

My hot take: I don't mind Friday night primetime games, and prefer them to Saturday 10 AM kickoffs even. College football should either be played under the lights, at least to end from afternoon kicks or be night kicks altogether. I also don't care at all if it overlaps with HS football.

Not a huge LeBron fan, but even as an 18 year old who became rich and famous overnight, he seemed to have a lot healthier perspective on life and basketball.

Huskers advance but it wasn't pretty. Hard fought win!! Congrats to the lady Huskers!! GBR

You do see where someone in Ohio asked about the rest of the Country...right?

Winning/losing head-to-head really should have nothing to do with it. My issue with Painter winning is that Purdue was expected to win the conference & they did + they have the likely national player of the year on the team. Winning with the best player in the country when you are expected to win is not award worthy. It should either go to Hoiberg or Johnson from Minnesota. Those are the teams that did the best compared to expectations.

Mr. Bruntz on 1620 kind of hinted that he's speculating that Purdue's Painter will be awarded coach of the year honors. That would be a huge crime considering his program lost to Fred & company in the only head to head.

I don't think Biden has a lot of popular support. I think most people are like me - I'm never voting for the other guy, so it's Biden. Edit to add - This will be the third straight election that the Democrats have put up a candidate that has big popularity problems. Clinton in 2016, and now Biden in 2020 & 2024. They absolutely cannot afford to do that in 2028. Someone much younger, much more charismatic, has to be on that ticket.

HuffPo: A Shocking Number Of Minnesota Democrats Cast ‘Uncommitted’ Ballots Nearly 20% of Minnesota Democratic voters opted to vote “uncommitted” in Tuesday’s presidential primary, as efforts gain momentum to send a message to President Joe Biden about his backing of Israel amid the soaring civilian casualties in its war in Gaza.

No, it really doesn't. What's untrue is the word "secretly". It wasn't done secretly.

That title was sort of a tease, no?

Woah now. I didn’t realize this was an honors class.

"Shrinkflation" I thought JB was talking about my dong.

I stopped wearing one as soon as I got vaccinated when the first shots came out.

Bernie going HARD with the mask! Wow

Kent read, Kent write, Kent remember what I did last night, Kent State.

I want to give him a Ludens honey lemon cough drop SOOOOO badly.

Boots on the ground. How would it even be possible to attempt this and not think there are going to be casualties for the US and Palestine. How can Biden get elected with a body count?

Probably so since he never stated it was

Yesterday I didn't know if they were vetted, and neither did anyone else. I have been researching the issue, and found the following thread that helped me with some of my questions. While the poster's references are his own media...which I normally roll my eyes at...I found quite a bit of information was useful. It is a long thread. Again, I am FOR legal immigration, I realize that the majority of folks that are here in Central NE are only trying to provide a better life for their families, and often do the jobs that others won't do...but I want that to happen after the uncontrolled illegal entries are managed with a more secure border.

Too bad gas prices here have jumped up bigley. Don't know about the rest of the country.

I hear they're gonna expand the BIG TEN tournament to 32 teams.

There is zero chance I would fight Mike Tyson - even at 57 years old. This dude is nuts.

i see no reason to vote for any republican....i just keep remembering what their goal is

I do appreciate the well articulated post, and I agree with most of it. I do disagree with the "Not Trump" portion at the end, because the Biden Presidency has been the most liberal Presidency from a policy standpoint in decades. The idea that Biden is simply the "not Trump" option that doesn't deliver positive policy outcomes is frankly just wrong.

The headline for this article called it "unfounded" and then goes on about it being true, lol

Dude compared us teachers to billionares !!!! RESPECT ME!!!! FinALLY I will just take this!!! hahaha

I hope Tyson tries, unlike the fight he did against Roy Jones Jr. If he tries, we could all witness the death of Jake Paul. And for that, I'm excited.

Swanson for Purdue (off the bench) was shooting lights out. We need Wilcher to do that tomorrow and all tourney long for the men. Might also solidify the 6th man award as well.

Naw I'm just that bad of a speller. My middle name is 'C', my Mom knew I'd never be able to spell Cristifur Christipher Christopher.

And there would be NO reason to 'hold your nose' in voting for Biden with all that was stated by Biden in that post. Common Ground - yes the common ground of Democracy and all the good our country stands for. This is what Drudge has as one of his headlines. It tells me Trump will be in trouble in Nov. Haley getting 1/3 of the vote running basically against an incumbent who had all of the advantages. There are a lot of voters who could / should go Biden's way. TRUMP: 1,541,026 VOTES HALEY: 763,763 VOTES

I agree 100% with this. Probably our best team to not win the NC - that or the 82 team. 83 - great offense but very suspect D.

"The Administration was keeping it hidden" We cannot be talking about CBP One, then. They literally put out monthly reports describing the program and its results. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think it should be an open window from the time a kid finishes his Junior year indefinitely. Leave a clause that they are allowed to back out in the event of a head coach or position coach change happens at the school they are committed to.

Some of that blame goes on the coaching staff. When the line has to wait sooo long at the line of scrimmage while they do the fake snap thing and then look at the sidelines for 5 seconds then finally get a play going it’s not as easy as it seems for lineman to not get twitchy.
