Correct. He does not have legal authority to do so. But his actions show that he is not interested in following the law. Who will hold him accountable?

Important Venezuela Update: United States Sets Sights on Cuba for Regime Change More than 24 hours after U.S.

β€œWhat began as a tightly framed counternarcotics operation has rapidly expanded into an open-ended assertion of U.S. control over a sovereign nation, with no legal clarity, no defined leadership structure, and no stated endpoint.”

They heard what they wanted to hear. But β€œmass deportation” is very clear. It means unlimited.

The strategy is to continue to violate the law without being held accountable. Seems to be mostly working!

Why does doing the right thing have to be so personal? Can we not empathize with other regardless of whether we face those problems ourselves?
