You are still circling the wagon. DACA deal is done and those that were brought here would be issued their Green cards by the Immigration Services no if's or buts. They don't have to be afraid of being deported the way the Racist Trump wants. End of the story.
That's not true, the Justices didn't order them to give anyone green cards. You really need to go and read the judgement because it's obvious you haven't read it. It doesn't matter what you or I says, it's what the justices said that matters. So I will advice you to go and read the judgement and see what they really said.

You are still running around the circle. Since SCOTUS pass their verdict, what's next is the procedure to get the DACA people their Green Card. You can put out any junk you want but the bottom line is that DACA is not in danger of being deported the way the Racist Trump wants.
I think bluebyrd is right, where you are missing it is what verdict did SCOTUS pass? Their verdict was that the DHS didn't do things in the right way, the judgement didn't say they can't end DACA, it says they didn't go about it the right way. Chief Justice Roberts said the DHS can end DACA but they have to go back and do it again the right way.

Please Mamman Daura, cry and go to the President's office and inform him that it is time to change the service chiefs, especially the CoAS.

Buhari that can't retire his service chiefs (apart from the Chief of Air Staff) is firing security details just because Daura wept? Let us all weep for Buhari to wake up from his slumber.

Daura wept and Buhari took action. Can't Daura weep on our behalf?
You said it all. Daura should please weep on behalf of the nation since that's the only way to get Buhari to act.

Oh really, Einstein?! How does that contradict with the black lives matter movement, or why is it that it is when people say black lives matter, that you guys feel the need to say all lives matter. Who ever said it didn't?! However, there's a clear distinction on how white people are being perceived by the police and how blacks are being perceived by the same police.

The distinction might be that White people are treated worse by police since more unarmed white people were killed by police than blacks

Joe Biden wins Oregon's Democratic presidential primary

https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/joe-biden-wins-oregons-democratic-presidential-primary-70779492?cid=clicksource_4380645_2_heads_hero_live_headlines_hed

Former Vice President Joe Biden on Tuesday won Oregon’s Democratic presidential primary.

The results were no surprise, as Biden is his party’s presumptive nominee. Biden outpaced Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who both suspended their campaigns earlier in the year.

President Donald Trump, who was unopposed, won the Oregon GOP presidential contest.
I wonder what's the point of all these primaries they are holding now since we already know the candidates of both parties. Can't they just award the remaining delegates to the nominees and move on to the convention?

She is a woman of honor and real American hero who lost two limbs during the Iraq and Afghanistan wars piloting her military helicopter. Will love to see that debate between her and Mike Pence. That should be a dandy.
Not happening, it's going to be either Kamala Harris or Elizabeth Warren.

You don't know that there are millions of liberal gun owners? Even Abbeybailey a well known liberal here on nairaland is a gun owner and 2nd Amendment supporter.

You guys are schizophrenics, you have split personalities that argue with yourselves.
Now answer this, does Trump has absolute (you guys would say omnipotent ) powers or not?
One day he says he has omnipotent powers, the next day he says he is leaving the opening up of the states to the Governors, the next day still (yesterday), he orders his cult members carry out civil disobedience against the Governors of Virginia, Minnesota and Michigan. If the Governors called for a civil disobedience against him, he will be screaming "coup".
The US need to brace for a civil war to remove Trump, either next year or in 5 years, he will never leave without destroying the whole country
You need to look in the mirror if you wish to see what a schizophrenic person looks like. I don't even have anything to say to you because you are just full of lies. When has Trump ever called for his followers to carry out civil disobedience against governors? Only in your schizophrenic mind did that happen. I need to start avoiding monikers that are known for spreading fake news on this forum and yours is one of them. Trump tweets Liberate Michigan, Virginia,Minnesota and liberals choose to reach an insane conclusion and see whatever their schizophrenic minds want them to see. Liberalism is indeed a mental disease.

Trump tosses coronavirus shutdowns back to the states

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/16/trump-plan-for-reopening-economy-191073

Days after declaring “total authority“ over states, President Donald Trump on Thursday kicked responsibility for coronavirus-related shutdowns to state governors as he unveiled general guidelines for a phased reopening of the economy.

In a call with governors and at a White House news conference, the president marked the moment — which he called “open up America again“ — as a key step in reviving a devastated economy and an opportunity for state leaders to tailor a response to their individual needs. But he left many critical questions unanswered for the states, including how testing will be ramped up dramatically and where additional resources will come from to protect millions of front-line workers.

...The tin-pot wannabe emperor...
When Trump claimed that he had absolute power to reopen the country, there were cries of “authoritarian,” and “constitutional crisis.” Now that he’s largely leaving it up to governors, you liberals are now crying he's kicking responsibility, he’s putting the “onus” on them, or the “burden” on them. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. It's always about politics for you libs. There's nothing Trump does that you won't condemn and that's why I never take your criticisms serious. I know it's your default settings and it doesn't matter whether Trump does right or wrong, libs gonna be libs and drive themselves crazy over it.

The stuttering, the losing his train of thought, the slurring of his words, and the inability to make any sense are all readily apparent. Jill Biden just sits there, obviously realizing how badly he’s doing. It’s very uncomfortable to watch.

How does Biden even keep campaigning like this? The DNC better have it’s backup plan in motion, because this can’t last.

on the same morning it was reported that 6.6 million Americans lost their jobs—Chuck Schumer and the Dems BLOCKED additional funding for the Paycheck Protection Program.

Let that sink in. Dems care more about playing petty partisan games than actually helping people.

You still don't get it. Voting rights is a fundamental right all over the world. It's the main element of a democratic form of government. An ID, passport, job, class, race, sex cannot be used to deprive a person from voting.

Any system can be abused. If driver's license can be given undeserved to illegal immigrants, ID cards can also be given to illegal immigrants. You do not want to burden the electoral commission of verifying all ID cards. Normal electoral procedure involves registration for voting purposes. It's during registration that proof of citizenship is often required, ie birth certificates, passports, Social security numbers and biometric data.

As I said no system can be foolproof. It behoves the dissatisfied party to complain and challenge the process in a court of law, if they feel that the elections has widespread and systemic irregularities.
The Republicans complained of these same issues after the last general elections and it was found to be false, even in states elections managed by Republicans.
I know this is the excuse Trump will give if he losses the next election
Remember, he rejected the results of the last election before he realised that he won.
Voter ID does not deprive anyone from voting except you were not qualified to vote in the first place. That voting is a fundamental right doesn't grant non citizens the right to vote in another people's country especially the illegal immigrants among them. Neither does it grant underage voters the right to vote. Voter ID is not being advocated for to prevent legally qualified voters from voting, it's to prevent illegal and unqualified people from voting. If you are a citizen and legally qualified, nobody can use any laws to prevent you from voting.

Voting is a fundamental right, you don't need an ID to exercise your rights, you only need to be a citizen. An ID card does not confer citizenship. It's not even a passport that makes you a citizen. If you don't intend to travel abroad, you don't need a passport. The constitution never said you need to be employed, a student or carry ID card to be eligible to vote. It says once you are 18 and you are an American citizen, you have the right to vote.
Using voter ID doesn't deprive you of your fundamental right to vote, it rather safeguards the sanctity of your vote. The voter ID will not confer citizenship on you but it will help identify who is a citizen and who is not to prevent non citizens from voting. The democrats have seen a loophole in the Constitution and they are using it to allow illegal immigrants to vote. How do you explain Democrat states giving illegal immigrants driver's licenses which in many states is enough for you to vote in elections. The current electoral laws have a lot of loophole that can be taken advantage of by illegal immigrants and double voters. Unfortunately, every attempt to plug those loopholes have been rejected by Democrats who are apparently benefitting from the current situation.

The explanation is very simple....elections laws in the US are state dependent and majority of what you wrote up there are federal regulations.
If you are not satisfied,you can file a lawsuit challenging those laws.
Every attempt to make federal laws requiring the use of ID cards before voting have been resisted by the democrats. I wonder why it's only Democrats that are always resistant to voter ID laws.
