    Why would you describe hiring more judges as deliberate cruelty?

    I wouldn’t. I would describe this:

    And, any time he tries to do anything about it, e.g. reducing the rate of people allowed to come across the border or increasing funding for ICE

    As cruelty, which is what I initially responded to.

    Since you have decided to be dishonest about my position, I’m not going to continue this conversation. I should have known, given every other conversation we’ve ever had.

      Interesting. So, if you want to clarify that “the only action he can take is deliberate cruelty” doesn’t apply to hiring more judges, and that you think hiring more judges isn’t deliberately cruel, then cool – obviously, I agree with you about that.

      If you want to seize on that one sentence to pretend I’m engaged in bad faith and flee the conversation at this stage – and not engage with anything else I said or asked you – I won’t stop you. I think actually it’s probably a good idea tactically for you to do so. Cheers.

        Why would I say that hiring judges is cruel? You deliberately lied about my position. Sealion at someone else.

          I know, right? It would be insane to claim that trying to hire more judges is an exercise in deliberate cruelty. I am glad to have you as an ally in this assertion, because there are lots of people who are claiming all kinds of weird things about what Biden’s attempting to do at the border and why.

          Anyway, like I said, I won’t keep you; I’ll go and sealion somewhere else I guess.
