Didn't i see something like that in the Cheech & Chong movie from the seventies? The deported themselves for a birthday party, because the plane tickets were to pricey..
It was a wedding, but yes!

I live in MN and have been getting calls stating that, “I need to come in to verify my papers and ensure I am a legit citizen”… I get these calls numerous times a day, starts in English and then goes strait to Mandarin and I don’t even fucking speak that! (9-10 a day).
I was born here by an American woman, who was also BORN here and a dad who came here LEGALLY with a SPONSOR and an American citizen and still am getting these bogus ass calls! I speak Cantonese and Spanish on top of English so hopefully they would send me back to my dads fam in South Vietnam but if not, I would be killed in north Vietnam due to my name and the war… so lovely… (back in the day I would be killed now I would just be shunned).
I am about to hop the boarder and try to get in to see what happens and then just live in Canada, I basically am already there here in MN! Haha!
I think it's a scam targeting specific areas
I lived a short time in NY and I got a mobile with a phone number with a Flushing area number (lots of people with Asian descent live there). Literally the first day I start receiving robocalls in Chinese, I recorded it and let a Chinese listen the message. It said there's a problem with my documentation and I have to call a number as soon as possible or face consequences. I was told this is a scam, they try to get money to fix a non existent issue.
But I don’t even live in NY or CA where the calls are coming from, I live in Walz Country (MN) loving living over here with numberious benefits most states don’t have but still am getting these calls all day every day! At first it was terrifying but my green card restaurant owner told me she gets them too all the time and just block and ignore. But it’s straight up terrifying especially for people who don’t understand!
Hey smuggle in some of that sweet sweet fentanyl to boost your profits
This is obviously a joke, but for those who are not aware:
Between 2022 - 2025, there were 71,000 lbs of fentanyl seized at the Mexican/US border, and only 134 lbs seized at the Canadian/US border. Of the 134 lbs seized, 86.2% of smugglers were US citizens.
DJT is full of shit.
All drugs should be legal and regulated. Unfortunately the US government is addicted to the police state's boot on the populations neck.
no no no.
maple syrup.
i think they got the tomeline wrong... as far as i remember nazi germany offered simmilar deals to jews before forcefully deporting them.
lets not talk about what happened after deportation. if the us gov is so bad with history, it might give them ideas...
There aren't statues about it all over the place so of course we don't know th history.
"You may be eligible ..."
Yap it's a honeypot.
I'd love to have free ticket from ruzzia. Sadly, they need cannon meat and won't let me out.
I mean if this was a legit thing and someone wanted to leave but didn't have the financial means then this is good, but most likely anyone who uses this will just get raided by ICE and thrown in prison instead of what it says, because that's exactly how low and pathetic people are
So we the people are giving them (allegedly) $1000 instead of the multiple thousands that they could have produced for the economy. Sounds like that will definitely make us greater. 🤦
So, like, I get your point and all, but think of this: American will be less brown! We're cutting our nose to whiten our face!
-MAGA
All our skeletons are white in the end. Coincidence? /$
They won't be getting a 1000 dollars, but they will get a free flight to the nearest concentration camp. It's a trap.
I'm not sure about this actually. The administration is obsessed with cutting costs even by illegal means. So this may actually be followed it is cheaper than detaining people.
Am I able to fly to the US for like a vacation to Vegas, then self-deport and take home a grand?
I’m wondering if citizens will start self deporting.
Hell, I'm a white citizen and I'll take $1000 to GTFO of this fascist shithole.
"Please get away from our country, paying visitor, and we may even chose to pay you"
Based on my experience, "those people" actually believe(d) that the US government is literally paying every person south of the border vast sums of money to come live here. If I had a dollar for every variation of "if you're broke, travel to Mexico and cross the border back into the USA, they'll give you a free debit card" I'd literally be able to afford to fly to Mexico, cross back over into the USA, and then be disappointed that nobody's getting those magical debit cards conservatives are convinced are being handed out like candy. And I'm brown enough I'm sure I could be confused as being "Mexican".
My parents believe that democrats are giving "illegal" immigrants welfare.
We are a family of legal documented immigrants, there were barely any benefits for us (especially not the first 5 years), and anything that you could get is means tested and you need all your legal documents ready. Like wtf how do you expect undocumented immigrants of getting any welfare, wtf.
(No they do not watch fox news, its some news account thing that they follow on WeChat.)
The right-wing media ecosystems the US has for each immigrant community is so bizarre.
To what extend do you think it's rich immigrants sharinging petty bourgeois brainworms with other immigrants whose class position makes them exceptionally fertile for brainworms or literally just the state department amplifying and funding those voices?
I don’t believe for one second that they’re letting self deport through this happen.
This is far more likely to be an ICE hotline for who to disappear next to bolster their quota numbers
- purchase a burner
- install VPN
- install Geo spoofer
- register all Republicans in office
even for this sign for non USA citizens they aren't willing to budge on putting a non-english language
it’s because the point is to both intimidate victims and also get nazis horny.
So while it sounds like a trap, this might also be real. It allows deportation without due process. This exact thing happened during Dwight D Eisenhower’s presidency to the letter, bonuses and everything. It’s much cheaper and easier to bulk deport if you can convince them to leave by themselves and by making life hell. Extra History JUST put out a video about the Eisenhower thing on September 1.
While I'm not 100% on it being a trap, we're in an unprecedented "the cruelty is the point" era that we've never really faced before. If someone I knew was considering calling the line, I would do everything I could to prevent them from trying it.
