Why not just call them illegals? Saying "undocumented" suggests they broke no laws to gain entry here.
Do you call everyone who does something illegal an "illegal"?
Have you ever gotten a speeding ticket? Jaywalked? If so, should we refer to you as an "illegal"?
US immigration laws have referred to them as illegal immigrants or unauthorized immigrants. And no jaywalking but did have one speeding ticket many, many years ago when 16.

Personally, I have no problem calling them illegal immigrants. But the term, illegal, by itself should be seen as a pejorative - as if the person being referenced is, him/herself, illegal. This is as opposed to someone having done something illegal.
So, Sally, illegal immigrant is OK by me. But don't be offended when people start referring to you as an illegal driver.

That would be fine with me. I think it would be unfair to those who spend years going through the proper channels to be lumped in with those who entered the country illegally. So we have legal immigrants and illegal immigrants and I have great sympathy for both.
The only way a 10 year old girl would be using the boys bathroom in a school is if that kid's parents are abusing her by affirming her mental illness rather than helping her.
Getting called morally repugnant by a liberal is hilarious.
A 10 year old girl would not be using the boys bathroom.
So the government knows how to raise kids better than their parents? I thought you chuckleheads wanted LESS government? Of course, Tim Walz and the parents ARE helping him, according to the guidelines set forth by the American Psychiatric Association. You did say we should follow the science, right? And you were super excited to use the APA’s definition of gender dysphoria.
So, again, what’s the rationale for not providing tampons in boys’ bathrooms beyond your inability to accept that people may not think or behave exactly as you do, and it’s not because the have a mental illness?
It is idiotic and immoral to pretend a 10 year old child is mature enough to decide they want to change their sex.
You can't get a tattoo until you're 18 because it's a permanent unchangeable decision yet every liberal in America thinks it's perfectly fine to sterilize CHILDREN just so they can virtue signal about how tolerant they are.
Hormone blockers are banned in Europe now. You flat earther leeching morons will catch up eventually.
Ruining the lives of children does not make you a good person.
You do understand that if she has the same policy proposal, it is off the table as an issue, right?
Trump tried something novel and got outplayed. His knee-jerk reaction is to oppose everything, good idea or not. She was smart to embrace the idea, and he is left floundering.
In all honesty, Biden's policies did encourage an increase in illegals crossing the border. He did tighten things up quite a bit his last year.
The Republicans showed they don't really care about border crossings when they blocked the conservative bi-partisan border plan. They were willing to continue to have mass crossing so as not to give Biden a win
They also blocked legislation that would allow illegals to get work easier. They also blocked other common sense solutions fearing it would look like amnesty.
The bill was tied to $98 BILLION in foreign aid.
It was also a terrible bill...
The GOP forced those issues to be tied together!!!
They said they wouldn't support the foreign aid bill unless it included border security too. Then, after Democrats and Republicans actually worked together and made a bipartisan bill, Trump told Republicans not to vote for it, because he wanted it as a campaign issue.
So, they took out the border bill and and eventually put up the aid bill for vote and it passed as expected.
Republicans killed the border bill for pure political purposes. The ones that actually negotiated the bill were pissed about it.
