It unfair that 1981 is called geriatric millennial rather than Gen X like 1980. Especially if all your siblings are older. I feel like I should be grandfathered in to Gen X.

This is the fugitive slave law of 1850! You know what happened after that!
To put a finer point on it. Trump’s contention isn’t just that he can deport people without them appearing before a judge, but that he can render them into a life sentence in a foreign dungeon with no process whatsoever.
President Trump asserted on Tuesday that undocumented immigrants should not be entitled to trials, insisting that his administration should be able to deport them without appearing before a judge.
