The president-elect said on social media that he was right about fearing criminals on the other side of the border. Officials later identified the suspect as a U.S.-born citizen and Army veteran.
At this point, is this news ? Though it highlights Trump’s politics.
As evidenced by US citizens unwillingness to describe themselves as immigrants, instead using the moniker “expatriate” even though they’re immigrating to another country.

Always has been.

Immigrant has always been a racial slur.
I think technically Ex-pat means they intend to go back to their home country, immigrant they intend to stay in the new country.
if that’s the case, why are white rich british people retiring in the french countryside called expats, but temporary foreign workers aren’t?

Isn’t “retiring” in conflict with “worker”?
oh, the people retiring and the workers aren’t the same people! i’m sorry for the confusion, my wording wasn’t clear… 😅
I see now, that was my mistake! Thank you!
