The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Arresting military spouses that are going through the legal process to get a green card has only one purpose. Legal immigration is being made difficult. Or maybe the people in charge are sadists.

‘I kind of feel betrayed': ICE arrests military spouses at San Diego green card interviews
"As ICE continues to arrest people in San Diego during their green card interviews, the final step in a legal pathway, some of the people taken into custody have been spouses of military members and veterans, including one who said he felt “betrayed” after serving for decades in the U.S. Marine Corps.

ICE has repeatedly said these arrests, which began Nov. 12, are for overstaying visas. But multiple immigration attorneys contend that’s never been an issue before, with an exception in federal law for direct relatives of U.S. citizens, including spouses, who are going through the green card process."
...
“The law clearly allows her to file for a green card through a U.S. citizen spouse,” he said.

“You’ve got to wonder what eight days of detention, what purpose that served. I don’t know,” Menard continued, adding that he’s done these interviews for over 12 years and never before seen an arrest like this.

He and Shasteen both said the women have no criminal history."
