If this is real, then that's some North Korea shit right there.

And what official body is in charge of keeping the official record and count of illegal immigrants crossing the border? Seems to me it's most likely DHS and ice reporting and isn't it in their own best interest to inflate the numbers or deflate them to appease the Nazis?

[–] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 hour ago

What percent of immigration is illegal? I'm beginning to suspect Republicans are actually pro immigration (gotta have those slaves) but need to be loudly against it, hence the crackdown on illegal immigrants

Step 1: Turns country towards fascism

Step 2: ???

Step 3: ~~Profit?~~ Genocide?

If it's over 100%, does that mean he's pushing out people in the US? 🤔

[–] Lesrid@lemm.ee 6 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

Yes actually, and he's making some crossings super legal to compensate further.

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 13 points 3 hours ago

Lol illegal crossings caught / reported. The majority of illegals come over legally and just overstay their vacation, education, work, business, or deplomat visa. Why bother crossing illegally when you can just request a vacation visa or day visa and just disappear into the country. (Yes those without passports will have to sneak across but it's way easier than the Trump administration will have you believe.) Yes thousands get caught but millions go back and forth without. Yes most go back without needing the US government to force them.

Numbers nobody has seen before. Lol.

Every Trump action is appearently the best ones ever made in the history of civilization.

If Jesus would come back, he would be second to Trump in how amazing he is.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 14 points 5 hours ago

Second place? Believe it or not, it's also Trump.

The joke isn't political, the joke is math.

[–] GrumpyDuckling@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago

It references a hot button political issue, and most of the comments are about politics.

[–] ooli2@lemm.ee -1 points 1 hour ago

this is not political at all. beside the fact that the white house is making the joke! next time the white house is funny, I'll post on political humor, sorry

[–] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 34 points 6 hours ago

So people are fleeing the US? That's not the brag you think it is...

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 122 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

numbers that nobody has ever seen before

Like eleventeen, thirty-twelve, and all those.

Good grief, I thought this post was just a joke, but he actually said it. It's ok though, his term's nearly over, right? Right??

[–] SGforce@lemmy.ca 23 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Only because the meaning of "term" may change.

"Good news and bad news. Good news, Trump is not the president anymore.. "

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 67 points 9 hours ago (4 children)

So... how do you reduce something like people crossing a border beyond one hundred percent ?

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 103 points 9 hours ago

People trying to get out of the country, I guess

[–] Goun@lemmy.ml 52 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

They're crossing on the opposite direction now

[–] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 10 points 8 hours ago

And bringing additional people with them!

American refugees trying to enter Mexico and Canada.

[–] heavydust@sh.itjust.works 16 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Look at the front page, and also great articles such as "Biden Spent Millions on Transgender Animal Experiments" and "President Trump is Leading with Peace Through Strength."

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 18 points 7 hours ago (3 children)

"Biden Spent Millions on Transgender Animal Experiments"

Wait, are they confusing "transgender" and "transgenic"?

[–] Wilco@lemm.ee 5 points 4 hours ago

Yes, they also cut funding to a special education transition program because they think it means libs are transitioning school kids.

[–] hedge_lord@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies."

[–] drbluefall@toast.ooo 10 points 6 hours ago

Yes. Because they are just that dumb.

[–] Mirshe@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

peace through strength Hmmmmm. Where have I heard that before?

~~Looks like it isn’t real.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/02/illegal-border-crossings-plummeted-in-january/ ~~

I’ve been corrected. Is is real. It makes sense that they were just documenting his word salad.

The quote in the picture is definitely from the whitehouse website, its linked below in the comments. Its just not from that article that no one referenced.

Don't know what everyone is so worried about. Look at all this bigly progress!! /s

And look how progressive they are, putting a Muskrat in the White House!

(psss....psss...Europe, wanna coordinate a party?)

[–] jeena@piefed.jeena.net 15 points 9 hours ago

Nobody wants to move to a shithole country I guess.

[–] DragonsInARoom@lemmy.world 7 points 8 hours ago

So what they're saying is that everyone is leaving the US, can't imagine why

Math are hard but maths is harder. American math is 20% easier than English maths. And yes I have seen that "[UK flag] English (Traditional); [US flag] English (Simplified)" gag.

[–] gon@lemm.ee 7 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (2 children)

~~What's the link? I'd like to check this page.~~

~~Fake...~~

WTF... Not fake...

[–] ooli2@lemm.ee 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

It wouldnt be funny as a fake

[–] gon@lemm.ee 2 points 1 hour ago

...I don't think it's funny either way, to be honest... Just weird.

To each their own, of course.

Six, seven, eight; lock the gate. One, two, three; turn the key. Thirty, fifty, ten; my dirty shifty friend?
