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.

Texas, after arresting these folks, will now jail them, try them, and incarcerate them, costing the state thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of dollars for each migrant. These migrants will no longer be eligible for expedited removal but will now go through full immigration court proceedings, which is exactly what they wanted in the first place, costing yet more money and taking yet more time.

I wondered what the process was going to be for these "arrests". The only way Abbot should win is if he's figured out a way to immediately deport them and they can't dome back. "How could he accomplish that?" I wondered. If he's just jailing them and they get regular process, he's just pissing out money and wasting people's time.
