And yet the border bill was killed by MAGA on Trump’s orders. Seems like having a border problem is more important than having a solution. The GOP has no moral high ground in that fight.

Go ahead and describe why "MAGA" killed the border bill. No? As expected of the left, you would rather claim a falsehood. Where's your moral high ground? . https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politic...from-democrats The Senate bill would have done little to improve border security or reduce illegal immigration into the United States. There’s good reason to believe, even, that it would have increased illegal immigration across the southern border. The most important point to understand is that the Senate bill did not even attempt to address the known pull factors for illegal immigration across the southern border. These pull factors include, principally, the near-guarantee of release into the United States after apprehension by a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) officer. Migrants can expect a near-guarantee of release for a few reasons. Primarily, an almost 30-year-old court settlement prohibits the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from detaining migrants who arrive to the United States with a child, or as a family unit, for more than 20 days. At the time the settlement was issued 20 days could be reasonably expected to complete immigration proceedings for illegal border-crossers. Given today’s immigration court backlogs, however, it is nearly impossible to provide a final decision on an alien’s immigration case in 20 days. What Would the Senate Bill Have Done, Then? Well, first, it would have given a lot of money to DHS and NGOs to process migrants, i.e., further funding many of the institutional problems that have allowed the crisis to grow to the scale it has. Second, it would have allowed DHS to remove ICE and immigration judges from the asylum process altogether by requiring USCIS asylum officers (who typically only screen migrants for credible fear cases, not make final decisions on their cases) to release migrants from detention and allowed them to make final decisions on those cases. It would have also provided additional funding to the USCIS asylum division to do so because the asylum division is already underwater and experiencing historic backlogs. (Sources from USCIS tell me that the affirmative asylum backlog (i.e., asylum cases that are not filed as a defense to removal, but often by aliens who already have lawful immigration statuses) alone has already exceeded one million cases, for the first time ever. That means that an applicant who files an affirmative asylum application today may not receive a decision on their case for as long as a decade.) Asylum officers have meaningful incentives to rubberstamp asylum applications. Moreover, asylum officers are not required to have law degrees (many, in fact, do not), but will be asked to make complex and final legal decisions that cannot be appealed by an ICE attorney if an application is erroneously granted. Third, the Senate bill tried to spend another $1.29 billion on the flawed Alternatives to Detention (ATD) program and provide nearly $7 billion in funding to NGOs and state or local governments to provide housing, transportation, medical care, and other services to migrants, and even foreign governments. In short, the bill would have expanded what we sometimes call the “illegal immigration industrial complex.” Nothing about this is border security. Rather, it was designed to streamline illegal immigration and obscure the crisis from American voters. House Republicans were right to declare last month that the bill would be “dead upon arrival”. They didn’t need Donald Trump to tell them to kill it. |

Makes one wonder
How would Trump have handle this immigration crisis-If he had been elected ? There wouldn't be any crisis-You may say. On the contrary this immigration crisis would happened whoever had been your President. The question would instead be-Who would have handled the situation best ? Markus |

So inevitable, another lie Another reason to justify tearing it down Honesty, such a novelty So we king ourselves with a plastic crown Casualty of a daydream nation Close acquaintance, no relation Search and destroy Dignity we left laying along the way To everyone's dismay Predictable cliché Kindred enemies So unavoidable, another fight Sell the ticket and crash the ride, burn it down A legacy of brutality So caught up in the process of weeding out The chopping block starving for a neck Pointing fingers and stabbing backs Never question conformity The big takeover underway Much to our dismay A lucrative display Perpetual decay See Lamb of God Live Get tickets as low as $16 You might also like Insurrection Left to destroy themselves yet somehow still alive Battling for the best position Posturing for recognition The best days thrown away In an age of quarrel Butcher the memories The walking dead Living a lie Ever get the feeling you've been cheated? |
