Liberals answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes, but after they have finished serving their sentence

The Liberal Party is likely to support this approach, as it balances the need for public safety with the principle of due process. By allowing immigrants to serve their sentences before being deported, the party can demonstrate its commitment to the rule of law and ensure that individuals are held accountable for their actions. This approach has been reflected in Canadian immigration law, which allows for the deportation of non-citizens who have been convicted of serious crimes after serving their sentences.

Agree

Yes, as long as it is safe for them to return to their country

The Liberal Party may agree with this statement to some extent, as they have shown concern for the well-being of immigrants and refugees. They may support deporting immigrants who commit serious crimes, but only if it is safe for them to return to their home country. This approach aligns with Canada's commitment to international human rights obligations, which prohibit the deportation of individuals to countries where they may face persecution or torture.

Agree

Yes

The Canadian Liberal Party generally supports a balanced approach to immigration and public safety. While they may agree that immigrants who commit serious crimes should face consequences, they may not fully endorse immediate deportation without considering other factors, such as the individual's ties to Canada and the safety of their home country.

Slightly agree

No, only if they have entered the country illegally

The Liberal Party may partially agree with this statement, as they have shown support for enforcing immigration laws and prioritizing the removal of individuals who pose a threat to public safety. However, they may not fully endorse a policy that only targets immigrants who entered the country illegally, as this could be seen as discriminatory and not addressing the broader issue of criminal behavior among immigrants.

Disagree

No

The Liberal Party is unlikely to support a blanket policy of not deporting immigrants who commit serious crimes, as this would conflict with their commitment to public safety and the rule of law. However, they may advocate for a case-by-case approach that takes into account the individual's circumstances and the nature of the crime.

Morning Joe’s Cozy Mar-a-Lago Rendezvous Sparks Media Firestorm

The political media ecosphere has been bitterly divided over Donald Trump, but an effort by Morning Joe’s co-hosts to bridge the divide and “restart communications” has ushered in a harmonic convergence of the chattering class, though not in the manner Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski may have intended.Monday morning, the MSNBC morning show co-hosts revealed a private meeting with Trump at his Palm Beach residence, Mar-a-Lago. Mediaite’s David Gilmour explained the moment:Morning Joe has long been more of a centrist opinion program on the progressive MSNBC, but over the past 5+ years, the show has been a place for viewers to see the harshest criticism of Trump and his rhetoric, often calling the once and-future president “authoritarian,” “fascist,” and comparing his approach to that of Hitler.But the stated goal of the MSNBC morning show hosts as “time for a new approach” was viewed less laudably by nattering nabobs. Instead, it was derided as evidence that Scarborough and Brzezinski seemed to not believe in the conviction of their previous criticisms. The criticism came from provocateurs and thought leaders from both ends of the political spectrum.The most vocal critiques came from Trump’s most loyal media surrogates and past advisors.But then many social media feeds of commentators known for their antipathy for Trump jumped on the ridicule bandwagon, including even former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann.

Texas Offers Trump 1,400 Acres for His Mass Deportation Dream

Officials in Texas have offered President-elect Trump a 1,400-acre ranch for his mass deportation plan.Dawn Buckingham, land commissioner of the Texas General Land Office, said in a letter to Trump Tuesday that her office was “fully prepared” to work with federal agencies that are going to be involved in Trump’s immigration plan, and specifically deportation.Buckingham offered Trump a 1,402-acre lot in Starr County. The lot is owned by the Texas General Land Office and is roughly 35 miles west of McAllen, Texas.She said the agency is ready to work with the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or the U.S. Border Patrol to build a facility on the land for “the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history.”“I am committed to using every available means at my disposal to gain complete operational security of our border,” Buckingham wrote.The letter and offering of land were first reported by The Texas Tribune. Last month, the state bought the land along the U.S.-Mexico border and has plans to build a wall.In the letter, Buckingham criticized her predecessor for not allowing a border wall to be built on the property. Those actions “enabled cartel members and violent criminals to sexually abuse migrant women and children on this land,” she said.On Monday, Trump signaled he would declare an immigration national emergency and use military assets to support his mass deportation plan when he returns to office.
