The Mamdani Act would amend existing immigration law to prohibit the admission and naturalization of any noncitizen who is or was a member of, affiliated with, or advocates for a Chinese communist, communist, socialist, Islamic fundamentalist or other totalitarian party—or any organization that advocates those ideologies. Under its deportation provisions, a noncitizen already in the United States could be removed if they engage in advocacy for socialism, communism, Marxism or Islamic fundamentalism, distribute or publish material promoting those ideologies or hold membership in affiliated organizations at any point after admission.
You know he is a much needed anti-toxin, especially when they name a bill after him. Let the healing begin.
Who wants to dig McCarthy up, stick him up on a cross and prop him up in this guy’s front yard?
The GOP is full of idiots
EVIL idiots
Mamdani is a centrist, he isn’t left. But since the Republicans are alt right and the Democrats are right, they consider everything else to be far left and label anything that isn’t right as communist. They don’t know what communism is. Even Trump labeled people communist nazis. Communists and nazis are the opposite of eachother. Americans are so, so fucking dumb.
He might not be as left as you’d like, but calling Mamdani a centrist is just ignorant
Par the course for anarchists.
First amendment lawyers are gonna have a FIELD DAY with this one 😭
Watch the Trump admin revoke their licences.
Barr licenses are provided by states individually.
Silly you, thinking laws and rules mean anything
I mean where have you been? If laws and rules no longer had any meaning then why is the administration being forced to give back the tariff money and repeal them? Why was the admistration forced to re-hire thousands of federal employees it illegally terminated? Why was the national gaurd forced to leave several cities?
These were all decided by the courts and the administration complied. I’m not saying compliance is perfect, and I’m not saying the administration isn’t trying to do very undemocratic things. But clearly there is still some rule of law.
The prevailing sentiment from the Lemmy community is that Trump is completely unstoppable and we should all just give up and accept his tyranny.
People love running propaganda for MAGA like that.
Or perhaps sentiment is that the institutions empowered to stop him are unwilling to do so because they are captured by capital… and that we all need to put people into power who won’t betray the people and who are willing to do something with that power to help everyone else… and perhaps work to restructure things so that the system works in favor of the working class instead of incrementally submitting to the will of capital until we are all wage slaves begging for table scraps from gold leafed shit stains like Musk and Bezos.
They would kill Jesus himself
It isn’t a real Jesus unless it comes from the crucifixion region in Jerusalem, otherwise its just sparkling hispanic
That means this bill has to define socialism. Good luck with that one bucko, if you have 10 socialists in a room, you get 11 definitions /s
I’m genuinely curious how it gets defined. I’m wondering if it can be sidestepped with a simple word change
That means this bill has to define socialism.
It’s not meant to have a definition. That’s why the proposed law denies judicial review. The “definition” is supposed to be whatever the ICE
OfficerGestapo wants it to be.That’s not an issue with the law, it’s a feature. They don’t need to prove you fit a definition. They only need to prove that they can call you a socialist. Anyone to the left of whatever positions they don’t like are in danger of this law. It doesn’t matter if you’d call yourself a socialist, only if they would.
It’s reds under the bed. If anyone in a position of power says you’re a socialist then you’re a socialist and you get made stateless and dumped in Nigeria.
Yea this is absolutely red scare bs, but I’m morbidly curious about this thought crime

The law states tge process has no legal review, so its whatever definition ICE wants to use, since no judge can say its wrong.
I’m genuinely curious how it gets defined
?? whom ever is head of Immigration says it is… it will be deliberately nebulous so you can say "banned because they are a socialist " if you have dark skin and don’t wear Kirkland pants to the interview.
Probably would include someone who says “I am a socialist.” Hence calling it the Mamdani act.
We MUST deport ANYONE who DOESNT like having Sex With Children!
-Republicans!
You say that like someone isnt going to immediately jump in and point out that Aisha was 9 years old.

We live in a fucked up world, and it turns out we always have. Sad stuff, man.
We need 100 years of McCarthyism towards right wingers and fascist ideologies
Revenge would be sweet.
Yea a COINTELPRO reverse uno but it would also literally make our country a better place
I know literacy is not their strong suit, but current immigration law already prohibits being a member of a communist or totalitarian party. There are exceptions, of course.
Freedom of speech, unless it’s speech we don’t like
Chip Roy wouldn’t have a job without gerrymandering.
Remember MCarthyism? It’s back - in redneck form!
I wanna see it on a pog!
So he’d have deported Einstein, then?
Without a doubt these pieces of shit would’ve deported him, ur watching the same bad movie with an orange rapist as the lead actor, arent u, lol?
Very land of the free
It’s never been that in its totality. It has alwas had an unspoken “for some” implied after “land of the free”.
