They're abhorrent and should be done away with, but they're not anything unique to this administration.

I suspect most Americans aren't apathetic about this (in the sense that they think it's "bad" and just can't be bothered to do anything about it), they think its is perfectly justifiable or even desirable.   If libs think this is a "winning" issue to get votes in Nov they are stupid as usual.

Crossing the border is illegal, bringing children with you is classified as human smuggling and is a crime.  American citizens who commit crimes are separated from their children all the time.

Would be interested to see what if any "child dumping" occurs in catch and release scenarios, and of course catch and release often results in "lost child" situations that LibBots meltdown about as well. 

But logic and the LibBot are mutually exclusive.

Catch and release also encourages illegal immigration.

But what nation needs a controlled border anyway?

You don’t get to show up and ask for asylum just because things were hard back home. 

Why were they hard?  Has to be evaluated. 

For example:  Were you being persecuted by the shitty Nicaraguan Government that Hillary and Obama loved?  Or was your husband not a nice person? 

There’s a difference.  Not hard.

They’re seeking asylum,  morons.

You don’t get to show up and ask for asylum just because things were hard back home. 

Why were they hard?  Has to be evaluated. 

For example:  Were you being persecuted by the shitty Nicaraguan Government that Hillary and Obama loved?  Or was your husband not a nice person? 

There’s a difference.  Not hard.
Showing up at the border and asking for asylum is not a crime and you shouldn’t be treated like a criminal while waiting to have your case heard.

Always genuinely surprised how sys is able to look at something like this as a moral imperative and then not interrogate any of his other views on empire and economics.

maybe you should reevaluate your mental models, as they appear to be performing poorly as predictors.

These people aren't standing at the border asking permission, whitebread. They're unlawfully in the country which is against a series of laws passed by the u.s. congress like a bagillion years ago.

It's like you're hauling a few hundred pounds of weed down I70 to sell with your kid in the back, and you get caught by the cops. They arrest you and put you in jail but not your kid.  You can't point to the kid and say it would be child torture if they arrested you, and get off. Otherwise all criminals would haul kids around with them like monopoly get out of jail free cards.

i understand that they're in violation of the law, but are we actually processing them through the criminal system while we hold them? i can see why we'd do that in order to track and punish repeat offenders, but why not just take biometric data and catapult them back to wherever they came from.

Maybe Trump offers a compromise plan where he rescinds the "save the dirty coal plants" policy and then repurposes the coal cars for piling in the people from the detention centers, all the while ensuring that families are NOT separated, but are place in the same coal cars.

Clearly we need to process these kids through so they can either become "lost children" or send them back after interrogations to determine any relations to Mexican gangs, so the Mexican gangs can then deal with them.   That was policy numerous times under the previous administration, and apparently that was okay, because we never heard anything about it from Perpetually Triggered LibBot nation.

Or, route #3 which is catch and release, and then deport those claiming U.S. born children.   Happened thousands of times in the past, and again, apparently that was perfectly fine because we didn't hear a word about it from Triggered LibBot Nation.

Quote
in August, 2017, a group of officials at the Department of Homeland Security gathered to brainstorm new ways to toughen immigration enforcement. Among those leading the discussion was an official named Gene Hamilton, a former aide to Jeff Sessions, the Attorney General, and a close ally of Stephen Miller, the President’s chief immigration adviser. “Hamilton told us that over the next few days we’d need to generate paperwork laying out everything we could do to deter immigrants from coming to the U.S. illegally,” a person who attended the meeting told me. Memos were drafted outlining a range of possible policies; one of them was separating parents from their kids at the border. “All the memos sucked,” the person said. “The outcome was predetermined. We didn’t have time to work out any of the policy differences. Some of the ideas didn’t make sense. Some were illegal, and some, like separating kids, were just immoral.

Apparently you didn't read the scant few articles that were done discussing this issue from when before Trump was president.   One process was to question the kids to gather intelligence about Mexican and Central American drug gangs . . . and then send the kid back.   Never heard a word from you guys.

WASHINGTON — Immigration and Customs Enforcement last year carried out more than 72,000 deportations of parents who said they had U.S.-born children, according to reports to Congress obtained Wednesday by The Huffington Post.

The reports were sent by ICE in April to the Senate Appropriations Committee and the Senate Judiciary Committee, as required by law. ICE confirmed the authenticity of the two reports, which lay out 72,410 removals of immigrants who said they had one or more U.S.-born children in 2013.


https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/06/25/parents-deportation_n_5531552.html

It's absolutely sad how spoonfed the Triggered LibBot has to be all the time.

ICE said 71,214 parents of U.S.-born children who were deported fit its priorities. The priorities include convicted criminals, people caught attempting to enter the country illegally, people who had returned after a previous deportation, and people who failed to report to ICE


. . . and one of the chief reasons why we have "lost children".

Unfortunately LibBots (like you) were completely flaccid when your hero was ripping tens of thousands of parents away from their children.   Not a peep from you as the brown people got shipped out of the country and away from their loved ones.

It's not the same thing...

“For parents who are ordered removed, it is their decision whether or not to relocate their children with them. If parents choose to take their children with them, ICE assists in every way possible including helping to obtain travel documents for the minors or, when possible, allow for the family’s voluntary departure.”

There was no forced separation.

They were being forced to make a choice about children who were already U.S. citizens.  What do you suspect the situation was like back in the home country for many of these people?

Obama deporting 3 million people was bad. The unaccompanied minors issue was talked about, reported on, and debated extensively. Obama absolutely does not deserve a pass for his bad immigration policies, but he also didn't separate families awaiting hearings on asylum and it is disingenuous to argue that he separated detained families at the border when the policy is newly created and specifically designed to be inhumane as a deterrent to others.

LOL, the "concern" about children comes with a decided political bend to it.

You had ample opportunity to be "concerned" about Children, and for years, we never heard a word from the resident LibBots.

If you guys want to live in some sort of fantasy land that tells you catch and release and border free-for-all's . . . which in turn lead to a process of incarceration, interrogation and in many cases forced deportation and/or lost children.  Was some kind of cake walk for the kids back then, relative to now, then you're insane. 

Not to mention the other awful by products for children in automatic asylum situations, which some immigration watchers are concerned has created or will create child dumping.

misdemeanor.  and it appears most are separated before any adjudication re. asylum and/or illegal entry.  there have been numerous more humane suggestions.  family detention, house arrest style anklets, case officers monitoring whereabouts on release, non-criminal deportation.

Luis Montes was sanguine about his dire situation, but the ATEP program often leads to migrants being placed in completely unfamiliar surroundings where they are then subject to crime and abuse, according to libertarian outlet Reason.

Sparingly used upon inception, the Obama administration drastically increased the use of ATEP in  2011, responding to a perceived increase in attempts at immigration into the United States by Mexican


https://lawandcrime.com/immigration/obamas-immigration-agencies-separated-children-from-their-families-too-2/

So, we have this account and the WaPo account:

1.  Interrogating children to gather intelligence about Mexican gangs, then sending them back to Mexico

2.  Shipping caught adult immigrants thousands of miles from their original entry point, many times away from their families and then tossing them back to unfamiliar areas where they were subject to crime

But immigrants’ rights activists had long cautioned that Lateral Repatriation breaks up families. The reason is fairly simple: many male Mexican nationals who are detained trying to cross the border often come with their families in tow. When ATEP is used, the men are captured and taken thousands of miles away, while their wives, partners and children are placed in immigrant detention centers.

Eventually, the men are released into vastly different parts of Mexico than where they originally hailed from, while their families are likely to be deported near the original point of attempted entry. Mothers and older female relatives were typically given the option of staying with their children. Typically this meant being housed in a “family detention center,”most of which are located in Texas or Pennsylvania.


But it is now, and only now that the LibBot calls for action.   Coincidence, no doubt.

Tragic, but as we can clearly see, various processes for separating children from parents have been in place for a long time.  Again, there were kids being interrogated about Mexican Drug Gangs without the knowledge of their parents (one example).    Fathers ripped away from families, shipped 1200 miles away, tossed back across the border etc. etc.

The last one isn’t so great. Deciding an asylum case within 14 days virtually eliminates the ability to get an attorney (which many pro bono shops provide) and proving an asylum case is not always easy.

But he did, not only did they interrogate children to get intelligence on Mexican Drug Gangs, they sent them right back to the Drug Gangs (likely after shipping their dad 1200 miles and then throwing them back across the border into unknown lands). 

But it's good to see that Hillary has now decided to fund raise off the "humanitarian crisis".    Not a bigger piece of crap on the planet, and she's a LibBot hero.

We are a nation of immigrants. But we are also a nation of laws. It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years, and we must do more to stop it.” (Bill Clinton, Remarks At State Of The Union, Washington, D.C., 1/24/95)

It’s absolutely true that Congress had a hand in creating this mess and the calls to return to catch and release are just going to create more of the “lost children” that LibBots supposedly have no tolerance for. 

Homeland Security is also claiming that children have been abducted by adults along the way so they could pose as family.  HS is citing “hundreds” of cases of this type.   An issue almost wholly driven by prior catch and release policies.

Weird, ProgLibs live in this weird land between wanting open borders and being fully complicit with draconian immigration practices (as long as a Lib is in the White House). 

Just admit it, most ProgLibs didn’t have the first clue as to what was actually going on with immigration and the border under Obama.   Not a clue so many were being deported, no clue about detained and interrogated  children, and no clue about relocate and release, that being just a few things.

Kind of like how they supposedly hated hegemony and war and "free trade" up and until they loved it bc trump.

What a great "choice".   

Kids were seperated prior to Trump, all the time, fathers were separated from families all the time . . . shipped a thousand miles away and then dumped back across the border.   This is LOL'able faux outrage inline with the discovery that the "caged" kids were pictures from the Obama era.

Now the Triggered LibBot nation are throwing around Nazi and Concentration camps for kids housed in facilities where in many cases they take field trips to the zoo and the museum, attend classes and have fresh made pizzas for lunch.    That's how unhinged your side is, you're comparing the kids eating home made pizzas to people being marched into furnaces by the millions and incinerated.

My "style" is simply to point out that LibBot nation by and large didn't give two shits about how people were treated at the border until now, and of course will not acknowledge the idiocy of the previous administration in helping to create this mess.  The picture of the girl holding the sign about Obama inviting them in, and then kicking them out tells you all you need to know how how eff'd up their policies were.

Now you've got parents sending kids out on their own, or people using kids as pawns to get asylum because of all the mixed messages.

The older ones can tell the younger one's about Obama's dog cages.  But the older one's have probably already been relocated to sponsor families who now likely avoid the government, which in turn creates "lost children", and LibBot nation is triggered by that, as well.

No bigger pos's than the people that decided that now they're going to be concerned about what's going on at the border.

I don't know how you've arrived at that take, but you are weird, so, I just roll with it.

But once again, it's good to see that you're suddenly so concerned about immigration and what goes on at the border, Phil.

dax regardless of your views your style ITT is pretty terrible and unproductive. (Even for the pit.)

cRusty, there were numerous references to Concentration camps just in the last few days by the left, and left leaning media.  That's pretty disgusting (but typical). .

My "style" is simply to point out that LibBot nation by and large didn't give two shits about how people were treated at the border until now, and of course will not acknowledge the idiocy of the previous administration in helping to create this mess.  The picture of the girl holding the sign about Obama inviting them in, and then kicking them out tells you all you need to know how how eff'd up their policies were.

Now you've got parents sending kids out on their own, or people using kids as pawns to get asylum because of all the mixed messages.

They absolutely are concentration camps, just as the British used them in the Boer War or the US used against Native Americans or later against Japanese Americans during internment or, yes, the concentration camps that Nazi Germany used. Just because there are uncomfortable parallels to more evil things that have happened does not mean that the term is not apt. Taking people's rosaries and wedding rings or saying that the children "are going to take a bath" and then never being taken away from their parents has some pretty terrible historical resonance even if people aren't being exterminated.

So what do you do with the 80% of the kids who came to the border without adult supervision or with people who are not their parents (and in many cases are bad people). 

In most cases they are held until they can figure out where to put them.   

But again, I am appreciating that LibBots are now suddenly so very concerned with what happens to kids at the border, when the exact same types of things were happening under prior administrations, and we never heard a word about it, and very little media coverage.

Obama left Trump with the keys to an imperial presidency and did almost nothing to hold the people who had abused power previous to his administration (or during it) accountable. Obama owns a lot of this, but Trump and co. and deliberate in their wanting to inflict suffering on the people that they have in their custody. It isn't some mystery, they talk about it all the time.

Where were the resident LibBots when the previous administration was ramping up ATEP or Lateral Repatriation?:

But immigrants’ rights activists had long cautioned that Lateral Repatriation breaks up families. The reason is fairly simple: many male Mexican nationals who are detained trying to cross the border often come with their families in tow. When ATEP is used, the men are captured and taken thousands of miles away, while their wives, partners and children are placed in immigrant detention centers.

Double the number of federal immigration judges, from roughly 375 to 750.

Authorize new temporary shelters, with accommodations to keep families together.

Mandate that illegal immigrant families be kept together, absent aggravated criminal conduct or threat of harm to the children.

Provide for expedited processing and review of asylum cases, so that — within 14 days — those who meet the legal standards will be granted asylum, and those who do not will be immediately returned to their home countries.
from what i've read, people are critical of the two week processing because it's unrealistic.  but otherwise this seems to address the issues.

I think the two biggest problems are that it doesn't do anything to accommodate the representation of the people seeking asylum and Trump admin will just rubber stamp deny these claims by either altering the things that can be considered or using the 14 day limit to prevent people from building any case.

People shouldn't be detained anyway, take down their information, give them a court date, if they no-show then go from there.

Mandate that illegal immigrant families be kept together, absent aggravated criminal conduct or threat of harm to the children.

Provide for expedited processing and review of asylum cases, so that — within 14 days — those who meet the legal standards will be granted asylum, and those who do not will be immediately returned to their home countries.
from what i've read, people are critical of the two week processing because it's unrealistic.  but otherwise this seems to address the issues.

I think the two biggest problems are that it doesn't do anything to accommodate the representation of the people seeking asylum and Trump admin will just rubber stamp deny these claims by either altering the things that can be considered or using the 14 day limit to prevent people from building any case.

People shouldn't be detained anyway, take down their information, give them a court date, if they no-show then go from there.

So essentially an open border and/or furtherance of the "lost child" situation which LibBots apparently have no tolerance for when a 'Pub is president??

They are already separating parents from children when people present themselves at the border and claim asylum. There is nothing “illegal” about claiming asylum. Detaining people until their asylum hearing is inhumane enough, but separating the families is particularly cruel.

Post by: sonofdaxjones on June 19, 2018, 03:34:31 PM
n reality, all of this could be solved with simple legislation. The House of Representatives is actually set to take up the issue of family separation in both versions of the immigration bill being presented in the House. But Democrats probably won’t sign on to either bill — and it’s unlikely they’d even sign onto an independent piece of legislation designed to allow children to stay with their illegal-immigrant parents until their cases can be adjudicated. That’s because thanks to biased media coverage — and, in some cases, outright falsehoods — Democrats are winning the public-relations war. The longer the Democrats prevent a solution from arising, the more they gain in the public-opinion polls. So they have little incentive to come to the table around an immigration solution — their better political option remains to wait Trump out and let the press inflict damage on him. There’s a reason every Republican attempt at immigration reform has stalled out over the past two decades — and there’s a reason Democrats have celebrated every time they have. There’s also a reason that Democrats with unified control of the presidency and Congress attempted no serious immigration reform. Better to let the problem fester for political gain than to attempt to solve it.

A 315% increase in less than a year of adults attempting to cross the border with children who are not their own.  Another outcome of the message of catch and release.

But once again, Dems, who have never really wanted to fix immigration, stand in the way of immigration legislation.

But it'll be great times for human traffickers when the chums of the world get their way (again).

Judging by the pictures it looked like jail for babies 4 years ago, even dog cages.  Not a peep.  The sadness of politically driven "outrage"

There is also a link in there about racists in Arizona protesting a YMCA bus because they thought it was full of refugee children, and Tim Huelskamp had a tweet complaining about the conditions for the immigrant kids being too extravagant.

A DHS representative provided The Washington Post with the hard numbers behind Nielsen’s statistic. There were 46 cases of fraud — “individuals using minors to pose as fake family units” — in fiscal 2017, the period from October 2016 through September 2017. In the first five months of 2018, there were 191 cases.

Quote
There were 75,622 family units apprehended at the border in fiscal 2017, and 31,102 in the first five months of this fiscal year.

So, one minute LibBots believe everything coming out of from the National Security Complex (when it hurts Pubs politically), and then next minute they don't believe anything coming out of the National Security Complex (when it hurts Pubs politically).  But, no agenda.

It's just a shame LibBots were so unconcerned about the "concentration camps" in Texas 4 years ago.

I'm just looking in the direction of where the politically motivated fake outrage comes from.

Also, what's completely lost on LibBots, and I've mentioned it before.  Is the complete and total failure by the previous administration in Central America.  A disastrous series of policies which only emboldened thugs who are propped up by gangs.  Then  :lol: con job the previous administration tried to pull in explaining the massive influx of DETAINED immigrants from that region.

They're working the angles via the usual inaction back to catch and release (aka open borders) which in turn only exasperates lost children.  It also plays straight into the hands of human traffickers, and as we saw from the SysBot posts earlier.   There is apparently an acceptable level of fraudulent entry attempts using children in LibBot world.   Not to mention setting a greater potential for "dumped children" once entry is gained.

Pathetic, but that's LibBot Logic.

Just like the disastrous policies (likely on purpose0 of the previous administration helped create a Central American immigration crisis on the Southern Border.

The disastrous policies of the EU (NATO) in concert with the United States has created an immigration crisis in the EU.

The New Colossus a sonnet for American Exceptionalism by Fake Sugar Dick

"...Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your whites, your Protestant,
Your blue-eyed masses yearning to pay a flat(fair) income tax,
The english speakers of your Northern European shore.
Send these, plus maybe some Asians, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

i've changed my stance on immigration. i used to support immigrant amnesty for moral reasons and because we are a nation of immigrants and stuff. now i favor the browning of america because i'm so tired of old, scared white men.

 :sdeek:, I was such a lib.  I've really grown up in four years time.

My stance on immigration today is roughly:  Why is the question always  "what extraordinary thing has a person done to justify denying them citizenship?" rather than "what does this person add besides another opportunity for the champagne socialists to congratulate themselves on being nice?"?

I'm a little perturbed.   But I'm more of a root cause person.   Why are these people supposedly trying to escape a bad situation and what are we doing to help rectify the situation back in their home country?   This works hand-in-hand with the concept of how this all could have been avoided if it weren't for politics and horrific foreign policy.

Hi. A few observations in no particular order....

1. Wow. Have not seen a thread blow up so quickly over the course of a week since the early days of the phony Russia COLUSION scandal. Good times. Speaking of which, whatever happened to that sputtering Russian COLUSION scandal? Or all those never-Trumper FBI agents exposed in the IG Report? Or the booming job reports or economy? CHILD CONCENTRATION CAMPS!!!! :runaway:

2. We separate kids from "parents" because (1) some of those "parents" aren't, and (2) it's generally frowned upon to confine children with adults. Currently, the only option to keep the families unified is to release them into the US with a citation, which (wouldn't you know it) is exactly what open-borders zealots want. Another way to keep them unified would be to prevent them from entering the US.... I guess open-borders is the higher priority.

3. Trump can't count on Congress to do anything. The Dems want this crisis, and the GOP is too divided over how to fix it. So I suspect Trump will soon issue an executive order requiring families to be housed together pending adjudication of their cases. And the left will immediately sue to stop it. Because, again, open borders is the true priority. I think you all know this is exactly what will happen. Which just goes to show how phony your outrage really is.

4. Somewhere in this thread, Sys actually posted an article advocating for the abolition of all national sovereignty. LOL.

5. Providing food, lodging, toys, medical care, and field trips to illegal immigrant children is "inhumane?" What would you call being smuggled to the border? Or the dead kids floating in the Rio Grande or suffocated in sweltering tractor trailers? Or the (HuffPo estimated) 80% of girls who are raped during the journey?

6. If escaping third world crime, corruption, and squalor is grounds for asylum, basically all illegal immigrants would be entitled to asylum, right? So that can't be grounds for asylum, right? That is, unless you're an open-borders zealot.

Hi. A few observations in no particular order....

1. Wow. Have not seen a thread blow up so quickly over the course of a week since the early days of the phony Russia COLUSION scandal. Good times. Speaking of which, whatever happened to that sputtering Russian COLUSION scandal? Or all those never-Trumper FBI agents exposed in the IG Report? Or the booming job reports or economy? CHILD CONCENTRATION CAMPS!!!! :runaway:

2. We separate kids from "parents" because (1) some of those "parents" aren't, and (2) it's generally frowned upon to confine children with adults. Currently, the only option to keep the families unified is to release them into the US with a citation, which (wouldn't you know it) is exactly what open-borders zealots want. Another way to keep them unified would be to prevent them from entering the US.... I guess open-borders is the higher priority.

3. Trump can't count on Congress to do anything. The Dems want this crisis, and the GOP is too divided over how to fix it. So I suspect Trump will soon issue an executive order requiring families to be housed together pending adjudication of their cases. And the left will immediately sue to stop it. Because, again, open borders is the true priority. I think you all know this is exactly what will happen. Which just goes to show how phony your outrage really is.

4. Somewhere in this thread, Sys actually posted an article advocating for the abolition of all national sovereignty. LOL.

5. Providing food, lodging, toys, medical care, and field trips to illegal immigrant children is "inhumane?" What would you call being smuggled to the border? Or the dead kids floating in the Rio Grande or suffocated in sweltering tractor trailers? Or the (HuffPo estimated) 80% of girls who are raped during the journey?

6. If escaping third world crime, corruption, and squalor is grounds for asylum, basically all illegal immigrants would be entitled to asylum, right? So that can't be grounds for asylum, right? That is, unless you're an open-borders zealot.

Trump is planning on ending the separation policy, so you don't need to feel obligated to defend it.

Dem administration:

-Support really bad people in Central America and Northern South America creating migrant crisis

-Invite migrants to U.S. border (be sure to send all kinds of mixed messages)

-Get overwhelmed by migrants at U.S. border (then lie as to why for days, then finally fess up)

-Detain some, deport thousands more, invoke geo-repatriation, need emergency shelters

-Invoke Catch and Release which in turn creates "lost children"

- . . . do nothing for months, days, years to rectify the situation

-Blame Republicans

Well played LibBots, well played.

I guess if your point is that Trump “created a problem” by enforcing immigration law then, yes, your point stands. But good news is he just fixed the problem he created by executive order! Now these families will be confined together on military bases while their deportation proceedings are expedited! We can all be happy now.

It's really not difficult at all. Obama was terrible with immigration and nobody cared. All you have to do is not say a bunch of racist stuff and, whenever possible, don't abuse children.

Big day for LibBots.  (once again)  Now only real American Citizens if detained can be removed from their families.


Since it's illegal even for American Citizens to enter the United States via a non designated port of entry.   What happens when a U.S. Citizen family (with accompanying minors) is caught illegally entering the United States?   (I believe that technically if they are with accompanying minors they may be classified as human smugglers under U.S. law).

I doubt the President would even be informed.  The family would simply be processed through the system.

Not sure if serious . . . but oh well.

Seems to be conflicting information, but I believe post 911 that you have to (re) enter via a POE.  Re-entry in a non POE,  a subject, even if a citizen can be detained.   Some sources hinting at detainment until a 3rd party, usually legal counsel can verify  citizenship.   Bureaucracy.

This little ordeal has made trump's "primary policies" seem much more rational. Sadly, the situation on the border that's been ignored for years (bc politically inconvenient) is an unmitigated disaster largely created by incoherent policy and an absurd application of asylum.

It's also becoming clear that the democrats essentially have no policies, which makes it hard to care when they whine about everything.

Well that didn't take long. Now detaining children with their families is "a human rights violation." Cue the lawsuits in 3, 2, 1.... Again, this manufactured hysteria was never about the children, who are currently in a far better situation than when their "parents" were smuggling them north. It has always been about open borders.

I suspect sys wouldn't limit it to just Mexicans.

i wouldn't want to limit immigration to mexicans and canadians, but i do think it would make sense to build on nafta to provide for greater labor freedoms between nafta nations.

So did they just paint over the Obama murals?

Each wing of the detention center in question was named after a president, with a mural. You probably got your news from a tweet that only mentioned the Trump mural. I don't know if Obama got his own wing. Maybe they painted over it for Trump, but that's just wishful thinking.

Just another reminder that getting your news by tweet from a biased journalist is not very reliable. Focusing on a Trump mural while failing to mention others is "fake news." Also, I'm pretty sure this center in question wasn't "built," but is a re-purposed former Walmart.

I mean that you believe Mexicans should be able to cross the border

yes.

and do whatever they want without having to go through any formal immigration procedures.

no.

I’m sure you know what our country has settled on in this issue and would maybe like to see a different approach.  If enough of your fellow citizens feel the way you do perhaps the representatives you elect will change the law.  10 years ago there was an opportunity to make a change like this but it was not pursued, maybe because even though it could have been done it would have been against the will of the people and they thought better of it.

i don't think there was any opportunity to pursue meaningfully more open borders 10 years ago and i don't think there is likely to be in the near to medium-term future.

In the political window that brought us the aca anything that the Dems really wanted was possible.

I don't know anything about the subject.  I guess I'm questioning why a modern immigration process designed to handle people coming from the south would require more judges and public defenders as opposed to more processing or administrative type of workers, and maybe a lot more facilities and infrastructure at or maybe across the border to help streamline the process.

there are probably a few embassies and consulates between panama and el paso with the requisite papers on hand, but a lot of people feel that it is oppression to ask someone to fill out visa/citizenship/asylum applications before they are inside the country and have a federal public defender to do it for them.

As the narrative progresses, I appreciate the "concentration camp" narrative (that just started of course) while viewing pictures of poor little kids being herded through ICE facilities in rows of 12 foot high fences with razor wire on top . . . in 2014.

The evolution of ICE detainment facilities from detainment facility to "concentration camp" is approximately 4 years, apparently.

i googled the issue after bubbles posted, because i didn't know the answer and didn't wish to choose to remain ignorant.  a foreign national can apply for refugee status on foreign soil or seek asylum in us territory.  other than the different names, the status is about the same (and very annoyingly, if you're trying to google it, often used interchangeably).

the us sets a cap on how many refugees they allow into the country each year, and they do so by region.  by treaty, they must provide an asylum hearing to any asylum seeker.  the cap for refugees from central america was 4-5k/year during the last few years of obama and 2017, for 2018, trump's administration reduced that to 1.5k.  in 2015, obama's administration instituted a program to try and shunt minors (and later, also some family members of minors) into a program to provide expedited processing of refugee status rather than have those minors show up on the border seeking asylum.  this didn't increase the number of refugees, it was just supposed to prioritize minors that met the criteria and expedite their processing.  at any rate it didn't work terribly well but was chewing through most of the refugee slots by the end of 2016.  trump ended the program in 2017.

so basically, that's (probably, mostly) why people don't apply for refugee status at us embassies instead of making what by all accounts is a brutal and dangerous trip across central america and mexico to show up and petition for asylum at the border.  there is far more demand than there are slots available.


oh, and if you're wondering why they're choosing to seek asylum in the us, when we obviously hate them, rest assured most people fleeing honduras, guatemala and el salvador are choosing to seek asylum elsewhere.  there's just a lot of them leaving.

oh, and if you're wondering why they're choosing to seek asylum in the us, when we obviously hate them, rest assured most people fleeing honduras, guatemala and el salvador are choosing to seek asylum elsewhere.  there's just a lot of them leaving.

Thanks. Now I'm in a Facebook argument with someone about whether or not you can seek asylum from outside the U.S.

From my understanding, the main distinction with asylum is it is based on the idea that if you make it on US soil, you get to stay if you satisfy the criteria (i.e., no quotas or discretion from the executive or legislature, it’s really just a judicial determination). There is a milder version called withholding of removal (I think part of the Convention Against Torture), which says even if you are otherwise in the US illegally they can’t deport you back to your country if you’re probably gonna die (high level paraphrasing here).

So if you’re really fearful for your life and family in your current country, your best bet is to just make it across the US border. Of course the catch is that asylum laws are complicated and damn near impossible to successfully navigate if you’re not an attorney or are not assisted by one of the organizations who provide help in this area.

What's the general concept behind requiring that somebody come from an asylum situation in order to be allowed to come/stay?

The primary reason is because we have determined we cannot send them BACK into an asylum situation and it is easier (and let's be honest, economically beneficial) to let them stay here instead of trying to find another country that will take them.  I think the secondary reason is that the grounds for asylum tend to be rooted in American ideals.  To be granted asylum you have to have been persecuted by a government (or major group that the government is unable or unwilling to control) based on things like your religion or political opinion.  That's a little more targeted than an refugee who might be fleeing any kind of crappy condition that isn't rooted in discrimination.

If so, what persecution was she attempting to escape from?   If you attempt to cross the border illegally and hire a human smuggler to help you, and you're caught, there should no ramifications?

The funny thing about this op-ed is that Sullivan simultaneously concedes that Trump has a valid point while at the same time calling him a bigot for having that point of view. It’s really a marvelously contorted piece of writing. I encourage everyone to read it. I suspect he wrote the article in this way to get his liberal brethren to at least hear him out. Maybe a good approach.

I have no idea who Sullivan thinks he is writing for these days.

I think he’s writing to appeal to his fellow liberals. It’s the only way I can square such an obviously contradictory piece. Consider the first few paragraphs:

Quote
You could think of the last week as a solid victory for the Democrats and for basic human decency. An utterly indefensible and morally foul policy of separating children from their parents is over for now. Trump backed down amid a torrent of his usual lies and refusal to take responsibility for anything. We found a line even today’s GOP would not cross (although we also found plenty who were indeed prepared to cross it).

But it is emphatically not the end of this story, not simply because there are more than 2,000 children still apart from their families, with very little hope of ever finding their parents again, but because none of the underlying reasons for this atrocity in the first place have been addressed. Nor are they likely to be addressed in the Congress today, as one of the latest GOP immigration bills staggers toward failure. Nor do the Democrats seem able, willing, or united enough to tackle the problem at its source, by finding a legislative compromise with the GOP and president, on both legal and illegal immigration. That means families in cages multiplying in the future; it means more endangered children; it means an even deeper coarsening of our moral values; it means more and more people in limbo; it means genuine refugees losing asylum and being deported back to their nightmares; and it portends even greater polarization ahead.

Ok, so far we have the typical liberal line. Which makes sense that if you want to appeal to liberals, you better start by establishing your liberal bona fides, your superior virtue, your Detest for all things Trump. But then the pivot:

Quote

The reason for that is simple: The United States has not allocated the resources, political and financial, to stem the wave of illegal immigrants into this country that is now rising again, or to enable genuine asylum cases to be adjudicated fairly and expeditiously. Our political system — incapacitated by tribalism — has been incapable of addressing the intensifying problem since the Bush administration. Obama was trapped by the same impasse as Trump now is, and detained families in camps. And the problem is acute. There are almost a third of a million asylum cases pending in the system; and, as David Frum has noted, it now takes up to nine months to process a single one. We also know that the Flores settlement that bars any detention of children with their parents past 20 days has not been invalidated or legislatively fixed.

Which means to say that in less than three weeks, we will be here again, with another excruciating dilemma. Do we set up vast tent cities and camps to imprison families indefinitely, or do we simply let these families go free, and hope they show up for a future court date? Either way, we solve nothing fundamental and leave a huge incentive for those trying to enter the U.S. illegally to bring children with them when they do. And that does happen. There is fraud and trafficking and opportunism as well as valid family-based escapes from violence and persecution, and it can be hard to tell one from the other.

Wait - what? You just said Trump’s policy was “utterly indefensible and mortally foul” - and then proceeded to concede that (1) Obama did it, too, (2) our processing of asylum cases has been overwhelmed by a huge influx coupled with inefficiency, (3) many of those asylum cases are not genuine, (4) the Flores decision exacerbates the problem and can’t be legislatively fixed, (5) the GOP can’t fix the problem without assistance from the Dems, which they won’t give, (6) this all puts Trump in a tough spot of choosing between mass detention and mass catch and release, and (7) this creates an incentive to bring children on the dangerous journey north.

Which is all true, but utterly belies the first two paragraphs. The piece then pivots back and forth a few more times. Fascinating reading.

mexico has no responsibility to assist the us with our immigration policy.  we've spent the last two year shitting on them, obviously they aren't going to help us.

Tips For Staying Civil While Debating Child Prisons

Recent incidents of Trump officials being confronted in public for their role in the administration’s separation and imprisonment of immigrant families have driven renewed concern about the lack of civility in U.S. politics. The Onion presents tips for staying civil in a debate about child prisons.
  • Avoid unkind generalizations like equating the jailing of ethnic minorities with some malevolent form of fascism.
  • Consider that we all have different perspectives stemming from things like age, ethnicity, or level of racism.
  • Recall that violently rejecting a tyrannical government goes against everything our forefathers believed in.
  • Find common ground by recognizing that some kids are huge assholes.
  • Make sure any protests are peaceful, silent, and completely out of sight of anyone who could actually affect government policy.
  • Give your political opponents the benefit of the doubt by letting this play out for 20 years and seeing if it gets any better on its own.
  • Give your political opponents the benefit of the doubt by letting this play out for 20 years and seeing if it gets any better on its own.
  • Realize that every pressing social issue is solved through civil discourse if you ignore virtually all of human history.
  • Remind yourself that you’re just two people having a cocktail at the same D.C. party and that politics is a game to you.
  • Avoid painting with a broad brush. Not everyone in favor of zero-tolerance immigration wants to see children in cages—it’s more likely that they just don’t care.

catch and release refers to releasing them inside the united states pending an asylum hearing.  and just as a btw, afai can tell, they had basically stopped doing this prior to trump's inauguration in favor of modified versions where they had some type of parole officer type dude checking on them or had ankle monitors.  those programs had about 95% and 99+% of prospective asylees showing up for their hearings (compared to around 2/3 for the actual caught and released).

option 1 refers to deporting the adult and child together in return for the adult voluntarily withdrawing their plea for asylum, if that wasn't clear from the tweet/article.

Good to see resident LibBots so WOKE.

Not a peep when your guy was deporting tens of thousands of people, or sending mixed messages that put thousands of unaccompanied children on the trail north with thousands of women and girls being sexually abused along the way . . . not to mention the 2014 marches through razor wired filled Obama internment camps.

I just recall that this is the same type of people protesting ICE breaking up a child sex ring.

that's terrible.  i don't remember what i've posted in this thread so i'll risk repeating myself: i'm against any policy created to antagonize people who want a better life.

i think it's reasonable(not close to the main concern tho) to ask why the parent hasn't found a way back to the child.  the answer is almost certainly because either the database that tracks where non-citizens are detained is shitty or the parent is afraid of law enforcement.

i've represented a few illegal immigrants in criminal matters.  in a huge majority of these cases the victim was another illegal.  in some the crime was a battery in a hotel between two co-workers on a construction crew. but a lot of these incidents resulted from one dude ripping another off in some manner, either not repaying a loan or destroying property.  if you're a non-citizen and get cheated there is no legal recourse, so you smash up his car or kick his ass.  the fear of law enforcement and the plain lack of access to courts actually makes it pretty damn hard to live according to the law.  i don't know what the solution is.  maybe if you successfully sue someone you get a citizenship pass with your settlement check?

The solution is pretty simple. Stop acting like immigration is some scourge on society, implement a simple process to become a legal immigrant, and allow those folks to benefit from law enforcement.

I didn't say that.   What's clearly evident since you get so mad every time your guy is brought up, is that you fully supported your guy chumming it all up with thugs like Ortega.   Which in turn kick started the unaccompanied migration to the U.S. border.

The gunmen — between 1,000 and 1,500 of them, according to some estimates — are part of a recently formed paramilitary force protecting the continued rule of President Daniel Ortega against a three-month-old civilian uprising. Their main tactic is terror. They conduct roundups, fire at protesters, carry out dark-of-night raids and menace the population.

President Donald Trump’s administration puts the onus on the ACLU, asking that the organization use its “considerable resources” to find parents in their home countries, predominantly Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras. The U.S. Justice Department said in a court filing that the State Department has begun talks with foreign governments on how the administration may be able to aid the effort.

Posting a memo and reporting what is stated in it just isn't sensational enough. Buzzfeed needs to actually go out and create the news like Project Veritas does if they want conservatives to take them seriously.

I think Veritas hooks conservatives with a big claim and then they don't deliver, but conservatives for some reason never remember the not delivering aspect. Very similar to trump.

Tldr: regresocons love a big bold claim and have no interest validity

I know some of you shitheads think I'm a Trump stooge (looking at you, sys, among others), but I actually focus my pro bono practice on these exact issues. I've reviewed most, if not all of the relevant filings in federal district court in this area, and I can attest that there is indeed some insidious crap going on as a result of policy changes the past 1.5 years.

This particular issue is the result of an agreement reached between ICE (responsible for detaining adult immigrants) and HHS/ORR (responsible for the "care" and placement of immigrant minors) earlier this year to share information. Until this year, the Office of Refugee Resettlement (the agency delegated with responsibility for handling minors), pursuant to a consent decree in effect for decades and several federal laws, had required background checks for any adults who sought to "sponsor" immigrant children and thus take custody of them pending resolution of immigration cases. This year, in addition to the new information sharing arrangement, ORR changed their policies to require fingerprinting and background checks for all adults in the same household as the "sponsor." By the way, the "sponsor" is almost always a parent or family member. Once detected, ICE/DHS/HHS/ORR has expansive and dubious authority to take people into custody based on nothing more than speculative gang affiliations. No due process, just a discretionary hunch. At that point, good luck ever leaving detention.

When you come from areas of countries where gangs exercise more authority than the supposed local governments, ever-y-body has "gang affiliations," as a matter of bare survival. Total BS. But courts are starting to push back, and I'm fairly confident this move by the Executive will result in substantial pushback from the Judiciary. It already has in several important cases, and there are several massive class actions pending that could hamstring the administrative agencies responsible for implementing these policies, at least until a change in leadership occurs.

Hi. A few observations in no particular order....

1. Wow. Have not seen a thread blow up so quickly over the course of a week since the early days of the phony Russia COLUSION scandal. Good times. Speaking of which, whatever happened to that sputtering Russian COLUSION scandal? Or all those never-Trumper FBI agents exposed in the IG Report? Or the booming job reports or economy? CHILD CONCENTRATION CAMPS!!!! :runaway:

2. We separate kids from "parents" because (1) some of those "parents" aren't, and (2) it's generally frowned upon to confine children with adults. Currently, the only option to keep the families unified is to release them into the US with a citation, which (wouldn't you know it) is exactly what open-borders zealots want. Another way to keep them unified would be to prevent them from entering the US.... I guess open-borders is the higher priority.

3. Trump can't count on Congress to do anything. The Dems want this crisis, and the GOP is too divided over how to fix it. So I suspect Trump will soon issue an executive order requiring families to be housed together pending adjudication of their cases. And the left will immediately sue to stop it. Because, again, open borders is the true priority. I think you all know this is exactly what will happen. Which just goes to show how phony your outrage really is.

4. Somewhere in this thread, Sys actually posted an article advocating for the abolition of all national sovereignty. LOL.

5. Providing food, lodging, toys, medical care, and field trips to illegal immigrant children is "inhumane?" What would you call being smuggled to the border? Or the dead kids floating in the Rio Grande or suffocated in sweltering tractor trailers? Or the (HuffPo estimated) 80% of girls who are raped during the journey?

6. If escaping third world crime, corruption, and squalor is grounds for asylum, basically all illegal immigrants would be entitled to asylum, right? So that can't be grounds for asylum, right? That is, unless you're an open-borders zealot.

 :Ugh:

Unfortunately the LibDerp and Sys-Whack-Ah-Doo rage are about 4 years plus too late in this regard.

Sadly, there was no outrage about about Parental Separation/Geo Re-Location either, nor interrogations and sent back across the border in territories held by drug cartels.

Had you you made your rage known then, possibly the pace of government would have it fixed by now.   But we all know your rage is political, not humanitarian.

Wow, that story is about 4 to 5 years to late.

So I'm reading about the news reports where an immigrant in Italy set a school bus on fire, filled with 50 Italian school children, thankfully they appear to have been resecued.

It seems he was upset by current Search and Rescue Policy related to African Migrant across the Mediterranean.   Hadn't looked into this before at length, but it appears that Sys-Whack-A-Doo's beloved (and other resident LibDerps) EU had put the brakes on a substantial portion of SAR (Refugee) related operations and at one point turned a substantial portion of that passage back over to whoever is in charge in Libya on that particular day.   So whomever is in charge in Libya on that particular day (thanks Obama) can decide who can and cannot attempt the crossing.

Developing . . .

Another 20,000 plus caravan forming in Honduras, already clashes on the border with Mexican locals.

Sadly, the Trump administration has taken the mantle of the idiot Obama Administration and supported Hernandez in Honduras.

Far too much root cause analysis for the resident LibDerp idiots and Sys-Whack-A-Doo types.

Not an emergency though.

Just admit you want wide open borders LibDerps.

In other news, you might as well consider the Northern Elements of the Mexican Military the armed wing of the drug cartels.    As far back as several years ago even LibDerp Nation favorties like the HuffPo were talking about the intense corruption within the Mexican Army (not the Mexican Marines) and how the Northern based units were working for the cartels.

Quote
“I can assure you that cartel leadership working the area were debriefed as to the type of weapons and communications our soldiers were carrying: [Whether] the vehicle was armored and the level of resistance the Mexican military received from our soldiers. The response time would have also been measured as to how long it took for backup to arrive post-incident. Cartel operations on U.S. soil are very calculated. They involve tradecraft and the utilization of encrypted communications to monitor all U.S law enforcement in the area.”

arrest and filing of charges against Naasón Joaquín García (Joaquín García) and his co-defendants for alleged human trafficking, production of child pornography, forcible rape of a minor, and other felonies.

García and his co-defendants allegedly committed these crimes between 2015 and 2018 while leading La Luz Del Mundo, an international religious organization headquartered in Mexico with reportedly more than one million followers worldwide.

The arrests in the case which occurred Monday, were the result of joint coordination by special agents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and officers with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Assistance was also provided by the Los Angeles Airport Police.

132K border crossings in May (that's only what Border Protection knows about) . . . so that's 132K apprehensions.  June at about the same pace so far.  366K border apprehensions in the last 3 months.

LibDerp Nation . . . why can't you guys give these people 5 star accommodations?

When is the American Political Left just going to come out and admit they want an open border aka the end of national sovereignty?

Or maybe just accomodations that wouldn't violate the Geneva Convention  :dunno:

I'm sure it's that way across the board, and I doubt things are actually that bad.   The U.S. is after all the worlds leader with people with extreme first world problems.

Maybe LibDerp Nation Leaders should come to the table on immigration reform (which they'll never do because that would mean a win for Trump . . . so, not going to happen) and/or just admit they want open borders.

If you read the whole article it was one relatively small facility in a sector that’s being over run. 

Again, when are the LibDerp Leaders going to step up on immigration reform?  Or just admit they did a 180 in Jan 2017 and now want open borders??   

The reason they won’t do either because of one thing:  Politics.  No actual fucks given about those people.

They ran out of money, and I suggest you Google border crossings and take a look at the charts.  There's still 4 months left in this FFY and border crossings (apprehensions . . . that doesn't count those that aren't caught) have surpassed the previous 4 or 5 FFY.   But hey, that one guy got a toothbrush from a pirate that one time.

LibDerp Nation Leadership, having sold out to the Open Border Lobby in January of 2017 (after 8 years of talking tough and fully supporting their own "Deporter-in-Chief" who deported more people at a faster rate than what Trump is doing now).

Continues to aid and abet the Cartels and Human Traffickers.   The Cartels now control almost the whole of Northern Mexico, with more mass Cartel graves being found on an accelerating basis.   

Despite the invasion, the Trump Administration (you know the Tyrant who wants to serve forever as a dictator) continues to hold fast and true to  Posse Comitatus . . . and thus even though the military see's the invaders they can only run the cameras and observe, and call BP.

You also take the weirdest routes.   I didn't say the Cartels were making major coin off of trafficking relative to their drug business.

It's good to see that not only is LibDerp nation not only aiding and abetting the Cartels.   They're also inviting people to walk straight into the teeth of the Cartels.

Not the least bit surprising you missed and don't understand, BAU for The Big Tuck.

Also remember all those pictures of children sleeping behind chain link fences that you guys melted down about when you started caring about Immigrants in January of 2017?

Remember when it was realized that those pictures were taken during the Obama era (who was deporting more people than Trump) . . . children sleeping in cages when the crossings were 1/3 of what they are now.

So let me get this straight. You are completely fine with Trump doing it because Obama did it too? Although I don’t think Obama thought they were animals like Trump does, which I’m sure you agree with too.

Complete strawman .  . .

You didn't start caring about any of this until January 2017.    Your guy deported more kids than Trump and kept kids in cages when crossings where 1/3 to 1/4 less than what they are now.

Go back and listen to and read the words from your leaders regarding the border and illegal immigrants prior to January 2017.    Maybe about a 1/10th of a notch below Trump, if that.

Nice job by LibDerp Leadership of essentially admitting that they want open borders last night.    While not a full admission, they might have just said it.

Note to the Cartels, even more targets for you to use and abuse if a LibDerp gets elected . . . 'grats.

By saying they wouldn’t put children in cages or prevent them access to basic human essentials?

I support children being locked up in cages with no access to basic human essentials.

Ok thanks for clearing that up.

LOL, you supported it for years and said nothing, and everyone knows that this was a temporary situation due to the 3x to 4x onslaught of people (thanks to LibDerp Leadership selling out the the open borders people) at the border.   Your guy had 75% fewer crossers to deal with and still could barely handle it.  But you didn't care, because you didn't care one iota about this until January 2017.

Oh Lama, you've done it now . . . years upon years of adulation, empathy and support by LibDerp Nation flushed in a matter of moments:

"European countries should take these refugees and give them education and training, and the aim is return to their own land with certain skills," said the Dalai Lama, adding "A limited number is OK, but the whole of Europe [will] eventually become Muslim country, African country - impossible."

"Receive them [migrants], help them, educate them, but ultimately they should develop their own country. I think Europe belongs to the Europeans."  . . . The Lama on BBC 6/27/2018

Why anyone should care what the Dalai Lama has to say on anything is mystifying to me. What relevance does he have at all?

The trial balloons on HoR expansion are already going up right in sync with illegal voting rights discussion.   Once illegals have voting rights the talk will immediately focus on the ratio of population per rep, which will skyrocket in some states.

I guarantee you didn’t feel this way previous to trump, nor should you. The fact that a non citizen might have a vote over your future kids or now kids that have lived in this sandbox is laughable. I’m ok with legal immigration, but acting like a kid who just crossed the border should have the same right as anyone else is very funny. Canada and Mexico would both laugh in our faces if we tried to do the same crossing borders, feeling like we’re all entitled to it.

It's also worth noting that certain entities ramped up their "coaching" campaigns in terms of seek asylum and the level of illegal border crossers from regions outside of Mexico and Central America have ramped up considerably.

Let's also note that all-of-sudden Nancy "slurs" Pelosi started wanting to talk about "root cause", while she didn't say anything back when LibDerp Nation's guy was coddling all the Central American thugs.

Unaccompanied minors alone were up 70% comparing June 18 to June 19, family apprehensions were up 469% comparing June 18 to June 19, single adult apprehensions were up 30% June 18 vs June 19.

Why can't the Government be more efficient with facilities, staff and budget to handle 1/3 of the current onslaught!

Now you've got LibDerp Nation calling this "Trump's Crisis" when it at first they (you) said there was no crisis of any kind, it was all made up.

Being in the country illegally is a felony.  It was a felony before Trump was president and Trump’s predecessor deported thousands upon thousands of people because they were in the country illegally. 

Mainstream LibDerp Nation just choose to ignore it until January 2017.   Then in 2017, to no ones surprise, LibDerp Leadership did a 180 all in the name of being Anti Trump.   

Also to no ones surprise LibDerp Nation’s front runner for their next presidential nominee was a key component of the administration that did all that deporting. 

Prior to Trump: Pelosi, Schumer, Feinstein were all on record as anti Illegal, “people just can’t cross the border!!” etc etc

Are you able to admit that?  I’m just curious if you’re able to admit what we all just saw in plain sight, even though it makes you look bad. :users:

It’s a crime SB punishable up to 6 months in jail for a first offense. 

In addition crossing with minors can and is often classified as trafficking.  Thus the need to separate the minors until non harmful guardianship status is established.

Your guy practiced patriarchal geo relocation.  So a family unit crossed the border.  The father would be separated from the rest of the family, shipped 1000 miles, sent back across the border.  Where often times the cartels thought they were DEA informants.  You said nothing.

The previous administration(s) set the entire table for current immigration policy and implemented and carried out everything LibDerp Nation is melting down about today, while the current administration faces an onslaught that 3x what previous administrations faced with a few very short term exceptions.   An onslaught facilitated by the very same people who just 4 or 5 years ago were up in front of the country talking about how people just couldn't cross the border and expect to stay.   Why?  Pure politics.

Just admit you said nothing while your guy deported thousands upon thousands of people and be done with it.

Otherwise, that's a great conspiracy, Bucket.

Just a shame we never heard much from you when your guy was killing thousands of brown people overseas and deporting thousands of brown people from the United States (while allowing more brown people to die at the border in the face of 50 to 75% less fewer crossers).

You said nothing while your guy the "Deporter-in-Chief" deported thousands upon thousands of brown people  (that's why your guy ChiCom Joe is getting called out on it now) . . . while he was dropping bombs on other brown people and sending other brown/black people into a life of slavery in Africa while making other brown people refugees by the thousands.   You said nothing.

The simple facts are, your guy was keeping people in cages and you quite literally said nothing about it and you quite literally didn't care because it was go along to get along because gosh darn it your guy was in the White House and he was talking a great game.

Barack Obama:  Deporting a lot of brown people, not doing a hell of a lot to help the brown/black people who were citizens . . . while killing thousands of brown people, and making hundreds of thousands of more brown people refugees, while ensuring thousands of black people were sold into the slave trade in Africa.

I was there because I was there when it was built,” said Thomas Homan, who was Obama’s executive associate director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement for nearly four years.

I know you guys didn't GAF about it back then, but yeah, ok.

Do you think the problem is putting kids in cages, or is it overcrowding the cages and leaving the kids in them for months at a time?

oh absolutely the cages were there and obama deported a record number of people. still, to say "this is the same as it's always been" is disingenuous or ignorant.

Aren't they allowed to go back if they want? I honestly don't  know how it works, but if I was trying to enter a country illegally and got caught, i'd probably try and run back the other way. Anyways, I was responding to the kids in cages part initially.

Your guy caged, deported, separated fathers from families bused them 1000 miles then sent them back across the border and the cartels thought they were DEA spies . . . your guy bombed brown people, made brown people refugees, overthrew governments for no reason, ushered the slave trade back to Africa and you said nothing.

Now you lose your mind over an administration dealing with the largest influx of illegal immigrants in years outpacing the past 5 or 6 years by hundreds of thousands.   

You're such lunatics you're out there protesting ICE while they're busting child sex rings.

In addition, you're guy wrecked entire countries of brown/black people, helped bring the slave trade back to the African continent and then set about to massively accelerate the destruction of Syria which killed thousands upon thousands and sent hundreds of thousands to refugee camps.

It has nothing to do with the plight of those impacted by a storm at the height of hurricane season in one of the, if not the most hurricane/tropical storm prone region in the entire world.   As soon as various governments spend billions of dollars rebuilding homes and towns on islands 1 foot above sea level most of those people will be right back to living their lives.   On islands 1 foot above sea level in a region called "hurricane alley".   

Unfortunately most of the usual triggered suspects couldn't give two shits and (most of you always  :lol: whenever I bring it up) . . .  when their guy (and I don't care how many times you try and claim he wasn't) was wiping out the Libyan government for no reason whatsoever, with no explanation whatsoever sending a huge chunk of North Africa into chaos and creating tens of thousands of refugees and re-introducing the slave trade to Africa.    Then the same regime doubled down supporting "freedom fighters" in Syria which created a power vacuum which in turn allowed ISIS to expand their caliphate and displacing hundreds of thousands of people and killing tens of thousands more.   In the case of those real refugees in Africa and the Middle East, many of them will never return home.

Yes, one is an act of nature, one is an act of a war mongering junta of which the Democratic party turned out 63 million strong and tried to keep them in the White House and this time around another member of the cabal is the democratic front runner.

BTW the U.S. has already provided days upon days worth of supplies to 44K residents of the Bahamas with USAID looking to send millions of more dollars worth of aid.

A cruise ship just brought 1,500 people to Miami without documentation.

I'm sorry that government didn't suddenly turn into a well oiled and efficient machine over night guys, a little newsflash, it never has been.

Who knows?

Given the 180 that LibDerps have done on the border etc. etc. since January 2017, when are you going to just step up and fully admit that you want open borders and open immigration?

You want that now with a country where the government doesn't even control the Northern 3rd of their nation and instead its controlled by billion dollar drug cartels.   Now you apparently want the United States to just let anyone in via the other ports of entry as well.

I know it's crazy, but the cruise ship actually proactively worked with the U.S. and Bahamian Governments and thus that's why there weren't any issues with the 1500, the ferry boat people did not do that.

Anticipated Counterpoint (and actually a legitimate one): I thought we were all agreed that there was a difference between CLIMATE and WEATHER???  :dunno:. This is more appropriately termed a natural disaster, in the absence of omniscience

Angus' word choice isn't really worthy of shoving aside the larger point, IMO. That being said, from what I've heard and read from climatologists, climate change contributing to more frequent and violent storms seem to be accepted science in their field.

It was free.

The evacuees arrived at the Port of Palm Beach after an all-night voyage on the Grand Celebration, a cruise ship operated by Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line, which offered free passage to the U.S. to a limited number of Bahamians.

Stubbs was one of about 1,100 evacuees who made the 72- nautical-mile (133 km) journey from Freeport. Thousands had tried to get on board.


btw the ship can accommodate 1,500 passengers at sea

not sure about more frequent, but more violent is pretty robustly supported.  there is also both theoretical and empirical reason to believe that climate change impacts the likelihood that tropical storms stall out as happened over the bahamas.

There was a story on NPR this morning talking about how it is extremely difficult logistically on most of these islands because the entire infrastructure has been wiped out.   What airfields are running are running at full capacity, accessibility is extremely difficult.

But in usual fashion LibDerp Nation is sitting in your easy chairs with your morning latte demanding that it all be made perfect in 5 days.   

For you climate alarmists, Paleoclimatologists  are finding the occurrences of strong tropical storm in "Hurricane Alley" have an ebb an flow over the milliniea, but you guys keep trying to use these types of things to advance your political agenda while you plan your next trip to an all inclusive resort sitting 2 feet above sea level. 

There are have been 3 other weather instrument recorded Tropical Storms that equaled Dorians (Labor Day 1935, Gilbert 1988, Wilma 2005) strength in the same general area and there was another storm that was stronger, Allen in 1980.   

As of 9/9 there were 20 U.S. military helicoptors providing assistance, transporting 72 metric tons of food, and 47 metric tons of sheltering equipment and immediate need kits.   Over 200 U.S. personnel are on the ground including nearly 70 search and rescue teams carrying 50,000 pounds of medical supplies, boats, boots and equipment.

But they better chop-chop, LibDerp Nation has a few more mean Tweets to send.

Really strange tact from someone that as I recall campaigned for Hillary “we have to bring them to heel” Clinton.

I see a president trying to undo racist policies as championed by LibDerp Icons.

The president has also repeatedly called for immigration reform that goes hand in hand with border security.    Resident LibDerps just won't ever admit that 1.  Their party leadership has done a complete 180 since January 2017 when it comes to immigration.   2.   That their guy, Barrack Obama laid all of the groundwork for current immigration policy and that LibDerps said nothing about it for 8 long years  3.   That their parties leadership has sold out to Open Border Society as a matter of pandering for votes and that it has nothing to do with anything of a humanitarian nature/mission. 

But I'm dealing with people who think everyone in the Bahama's is a Bahamian citizen (for those keeping score at home the Bahamas is a Independent Commonwealth of Great Britain)  so I need to speak to them like they're in Kindergarten.

The hyporcrisy that LibDerp Nation doesn't care anything but getting back into power.   Like Hillary, ChiCom Joe never met a war he didn't want.   ChiCom Joe just like Hillary was a major powerbroker behind getting the racist sentencing legislation through Congress.   Just like Hillary ChiCom Joe used the power of his elected office to pump millions/billions of dollars into his families financial coffers.    Hillary would say whatever was politically expedient about the border and immigration, one minute all tough on the border, one minute the exact opposite.   ChiCom Joe worked for the "Deporter-n-Chief".    ChiCom Joe and Hillary worked for an administration that put the Patriot Act on Steroids etc. etc. etc.

So you’re admitting that you didn’t care when the previous administration separated families, took the patriarch and geo relocated him across the border 1000 miles away (into the hands of suspicious cartels) and deported hundreds of thousands of people?  You only started caring about any of this when Trump became president.

Well, it's good to see you've broken away in the midst of your weird eternal rage at white people and pseudo intellectual platforming on (insert crat/socialist whackadoo here) to join in on the discussion.

Trump didn't start geo-relocation.   The infamous picture of the border personnel walking by the kids in cages was taken during the Obama administration.     Not a peep about it from resident LibBot Nation.   This is not hard, you guys gave zero fucks about this topic as the Deporter-n-Chief was doing his thing.

That's a total tapout.

Geo-relocation sent fathers up to 1000 miles away from their families, sent them back across the border where often times, the drug cartels thought they were DEA informants.   The areas they were sent to were not familiar to them.  They also sent kids back across and some cartels thought they were informants as well.

Only a complete idiot doesn't think that wasn't scary to future immigrants.

Just admit that you didn't start caring about the border or immigrants until Trump was elected.   You'll feel better.

Yes, because taking their dad away or living under the constant fear of deportation by the Deporter-n-Chief, or sending them back across the border by themselves to be preyed upon by cartels or traffickers was very comforting.

Just admit, you didn't care until Trump, like I said, you'll feel better.

So you for (well, just admit that you didn't even know, because you didn't care) all the other draconian policies, but only became against a singular policy which is designed because so many minors are brought to the boarder by people just looking to use the minor as a means of gaining asylum.   

I don't know why LibBot Nation is getting so mad, so far over a half a million caught and released.   This administration deports at a pace much slower than the Deporter-in-Chief, mainly because of the 180 that LibBot Leadership did on the boarder once Trump was elected, thus blocking various things through the court system.  Totally selling out to open borders movement for political gain, and only for political gain.

Remember when LibBot Nation completely melted down about the pictures of kids in cages, and then it was released that the pics were taken during the previous administration and you realized you didn't have a clue that it was even going on (and didn't care)?

While your guy deported hundreds of thousands of people (in the face 1/3 or more fewer crossers) and the only people saying anything about it were fringe immigrants rights movements.

Just short of 1 million border apprehensions in FFY 2019, which means hundreds of thousands of people breaking U.S. law, many of them engaged in criminal activity were not caught at the border.   Many of them driven to the U.S. by the illegal sanctuary states and cities.

Meanwhile Northern Mexico and Mexico in general continues to devolve and the government cedes more and more control to the Cartels who are funded by the easy access across the border into their U.S. markets. 

Sadly, LibBot Leadership sold out for political gain on our about January 2017.

mo, I know you're not very bright.   But when there's 40 to 50% more people (which translates into hundreds of thousands of people) trying to cross the border (because LibBot Leadership sold out to the open borders people purely for political gain) do you think that traffickers might try and take advantage of an overwhelmed system?

In other news there were 977K border apprehensions just in the Southwest border section alone, including, wait for it . . . 77,000 unaccompanied children.

The LibBot Nation answer to the unaccompanied children would be to just set them free to fend for themselves, or throw them into an already highly stressed foster care system (of which the vast majority of LiBBot Nation has zero participation in, but they're so very worried about these children and need to feel better about themselves).

I quite literally pay no attention to the guy, and had to look him up just to remind myself of who he is.

But as I read at least one story, I find it LOL'able in regards to the outrage, now that it was just released (and has been known for a long time) that Trump is (as I've said before) deporting fewer people than LibBot Hero Barack "bombs away" Obama.

Of course we now have it confirmed again, that tens of thousands of children were detained by the previous administration, and we know that the hated cages were installed and used by . . . the previous administration, and nobody gave a single crap outside of a very minor group of left wing immigration advocates, LibBot Leadership and LibBot Nation didn't care, until after January 2017.

Unfortunately since the LibBot Leadership with the full blessing of LibBot Nation (who didn't give two shits about these people prior to January 2017) having sold out entirely to the open border groups in order to "get Trump", the number of people crossing the border is up by hundreds of thousands.   When you have an agency tasked with trying to handle hundreds of thousands of additional people there's going to be unfortunate incidents.

You're just trying way to hard, there's more catching and releasing being done by this administration than was done by the previous administration.    The previous administration didn't have to deal with the number of crossers in two full years that was just experienced in the last FFY.    Just accept your 8 years of silence in the midst of hundreds of thousands of deportations, caged kids, and thousands of border deaths.

LOL, the US will only use and deploy high tech mines that will deactivate after 30 days. 

Translation, the rest of the world who will if the time comes deploy mines at will if the need arises completely ignoring the treaty entirely . . . doesn’t have that technology.  Thus they’ll be deploying mines that will pose a danger for decades to come.  But they’ll have signed a virtually meaningless document and LibDorks will feel better about themselves.

Meanwhile other nations without the technology will likely continue to deploy old technology mines based on political will and against political opposition.

Say, Da Big Psycho I know you're just a parrot boy who can't think for himself.   But do security agencies in countries across the globe have a growing concern about the true intentions of students (air quotes) from a certain country?    Are schools shutting down or looking to shut down certain institutes that are propping up from said country on college campuses?

Looking forward to your known answer, answer.

Is the value of an American education limited to what can be gleaned from in-person instruction? I don't think so. I would argue that the social aspects are just as, if not more important. The latter could still be done responsibly with proper distancing and masking. I don't like this policy one bit, as it seems punitive and mean-spirited.

It seems weird to talking about the social aspects of college at a school that is only doing online classes.  Which would be exclusively driven by a health crisis which according to Rona Fear Porn Nation demands extreme social distancing, masking, and in many cases the outright cancellation of social gatherings of all sorts (except riots). 

Do other nations grant student visas to Americans to travel there and only take online classes?   I'm not talking about some study abroad program which is essentially vacation with a few meetings.  I'm talking about actual academic regimen at a college or university.

You used the phrase "the US taking all the smart people from developing nations," and I took you literally hoping that you didn't actually mean that, we can move on from that post.

Certainly you can see the problem from the student's perspective, trying to get credits to transfer to universities from different countries, right? Certainly, you can see the problem from the country's perspective, losing all of those researchers, economists, mathematicians, etc., right?

I mean I care about how this effects the student's, but I care more about the fact that we're going to waste the time and resources the universities have invested in these students and our country is going to lose these bright minds, for literally no reason at all. I don't even blame trump, I blame all of the fucks advising him and the people who have the ability to speak up and change his mind, but who aren't doing so. He's doing this as an election ploy and it won't net him a solitary vote.

Your party did a complete 180 on immigration when Trump got elected, we have the transcripts, the audio and the video to prove this again and again and again.

You're party leadership continuously railed on how people "just couldn't jump over a river" and expect to stay in the United States.

What's even more telling is that you and your party now with great zeal, tell anyone that does the immigration process the right way, that they're an idiot and a dumb ass and you're basically telling them to eff off.   

You now praise sanctuary cities who harbor criminal aliens . . . that's how mumped up your movement is.

You don't want border security with a country where now almost 2/3's of the country is controlled by para-military drug cartels who want to ship their poison into neighborhoods all across the United States.

I know it doesn't fit the ProgFascist narrative (that began January 2017), but you can't just show up and get Asylum.  At least one of five primary bullet point criteria must be met, and the person in question then must past a security and background check among an entire check list of things.

ProgFascists . . . perfectly fine with caged kids and millions of deportations until January 2017.

Nah bro, ICE being a terroristic organization has literally nothing to do with the cheeto. Granted he's done nothing to curb their terrorism, but they have been this way long before trump took office and they will after he's gone. In 2016 I posted a vice story about ice agents shooting migrants in the back. The mere existence of the agency and their propose will lead to human rights abuses. The filmmakers in the NYT article attempts to humanize some of the agents, but if you're going to work for ice, unlike some cops, your motivation isn't helping people, it's rough ridin' up some Mexicans.

:lol: :lol: The only way to discuss this with Da Big Sociopath is to stay in his ridiculously defined lane.

Your party did a complete 180 on immigration when Trump got elected, we have the transcripts, the audio and the video to prove this again and again and again.

You're party leadership continuously railed on how people "just couldn't jump over a river" and expect to stay in the United States.

What's even more telling is that you and your party now with great zeal, tell anyone that does the immigration process the right way, that they're an idiot and a dumb ass and you're basically telling them to eff off.   

You now praise sanctuary cities who harbor criminal aliens . . . that's how mumped up your movement is.

You don't want border security with a country where now almost 2/3's of the country is controlled by para-military drug cartels who want to ship their poison into neighborhoods all across the United States.   

ProgLibs like Da Big Sociopath and BidenBot.7:  Caring about illegal immigrants since January 2017

I'm wondering how such as corrupt country could build and ship so many products.  I guess if your driving car/truck there is a good chance it was built by criminals.   I guess we like their products, just not their ppl.  You racist POS.

Ok, I'm on the train, abolish ice

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/23/us/trump-immigration-nation-netflix.html

Netflix has released the trailer for this, the doc launches on Monday.

The first two episodes of this is even more infuriating and sad than you could even imagine. The stand out for me is the number of brown people willing to sign up to lock other brown people up. There are two different scenes of brown ice agents mocking or agonizing detainees. One of the agents is shown being a complete dick to a detainee, then the scene ends with him talking about his family members who have been deported.

I don't know if there are that many brown people working for ice, or the filmmakers are featuring a lot of brown agents to show the irony, or ice thought that featuring brown agents would make the agency seem more sympathetic, so they have the filmmakers access to mostly brown agents. I lean to option three. Not all skin folks are kin folks.

Also, because of the late negotiations the filmmakers made with ice, some editing is lol. For example all of the last names of the agents have been blacked over with literally a digital sharpie when they appear on screen.

Through four episodes of Immigration Nation and it's very obvious that trump is the least of the issues when it comes to our immigration issues. ICE is filled with racists who are breaking up families for no particular reason at all. I can't imagine how these ICE agents behave off camera when they act like the way they do on camera. We have a federal agency that exists solely to deputize bigots and to feed the for profit prison system.

Democrats are far from exempt from this. At best most are guilty of not doing crap, others lie just as much as the ICE agents do.

I was completely in the dark about how abhorrent the immigration problem is in this country. It's our current black eye. The current immigration policy sits right next to slavery in ignominy. Watch this documentary and if you still feel apathetic I feel comfortable calling you a racist monster. I don't know what I'm going to do, but as an American that actually has pride and expectations of this country, I'm going too do something.

Is it less about policy and more about personal interactions? Lil bit of both?

Both. What's interesting are the times they discuss policy then either an agent or a suit will flat out lie on camera about said policy. Three examples of this is.
1. ICE cannot enter your home without permission so then they go on to show ice agents blatantly breaking this law while discussing doing so.
2. One of the suits said that it isn't ICE making these decisions but judges, ICE only carries out their orders. Then the filmmakers show that immigration judges aren't allowed to render actual judgments, they are required to do whatever they are told to do. Immigration judges aren't a part of the judicial branch, they are in the executive branch.
3. In a press conference about a municipality kicking ICE out of a municipality a Homeland Security official knowingly lied about how many "criminal aliens" they detained. He was told that the number of detainees with a criminal record was under 50%, in the press conference they called he gave that percentage as 91%, the percent they had when they were allowed to detain from the county jail.

These things are way way way far down the list of infuriating things on this documentary.

My point is that alot of international students are taking online courses in their home country so would that be why the number of F1 visas is so low. I honestly don't know if incoming students and/or continuing students have an F1 or maintain their F1 if they're taking classes outside of the country. Also, in the lawsuit against the government this past summer they ruled that they could stay in the country even if their courses were all online.

Joe should stand on a stage in Arizona like Obama and his DHS guy did and tell immigrants they’re going no further.

He has prioritized reuniting the children who have been separated and not yet with their families. To me that's an implication that he is ending the policy, why bother reuniting the children otherwise?

Even under the policy the kids were not supposed to be permanently separated. It just happened to be the end result for like few hundred because the Trump administration didn’t give two shits about treating immigrants as human beings.

So prioritizing reunification for some families is not necessarily the same as totally killing the policy, but I have to think Biden would do that too.

I wondered about the enforceability of this. How can one judge prevent the administration for freezing deportations. I get these are legal proceedings and a judge can enforce the deportations already in legal limbo, however they can't go out in the field and force ICE agents to arrest people, that's not how law and order works.

Well if he actually read the article, that he clearly didn't because he would have linked it instead of screenshotting tweets, one of which does a poor job of making the point he wants to make. It is an interesting view on Biden apparently not keeping a campaign promise, and I think the Washington Post inadvertently provided a commentary on the media framing of immigrant children who are detained. This was an interesting passage for me
Quote
Weber said the facilities received a bad rap under the Trump administration because many people associated them with the detention centers run by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. But the children always received good care and that never wavered between administrations, he said.


Anyway, if you want to take a look at one of these centers that has been open for 11 years, check this out. It is a very different view of the people in cages media narrative that we were inundated with the last four years.

It's difficult talking with people who continually deny that their heroes were the ones who not only built the cages, put people in those cages, but also laid the groundwork for existing immigration policy which hyper partisan lemmings supposedly hate.

It's also fascinating to watch people read one of their chief mouthpiece publications and believe the pillow soft propaganda and sanitizing of the situation that publication does to protect its political constituency.

It's also sad to see the current administration not only espousing a contraian policy which plays straight into the hands of the worst people on the planet but also does nothing to work on the root cause of some of the migration.  On top of the fact that this is nowhere close to the number of people the previous administration had to deal with at the border.

The only thing in the article that bothered me is that the average kid is in one of those facilities for more than 40 days. They need to get that under 20 days. Biden has only been president for about 30 days, so there is some hope that things will get better.

The facility on its own or the reason for it's existence isn't terribly problematic, the issue for me is that this facility has existed for 11 years and it's purpose seemingly hasn't changed in that time. One, it's pretty clear media hypocrisy, and two, unless I missed something the purpose of the facility is the same now as it was a year ago. That should be a facility that is now used to start the process of the path to citizenship and it doesn't appear as if this is the case.

The article made it clear that the kids who are currently being directed to it arrive unaccompanied. They have to go somewhere. If we were still separating families and sending the kids to facilities like this, that would be a problem. The government has to identify the people who are supposed to care for the kids and make sure those people can provide a safe home.

Right, it also made it clear that it has been used for that purpose for 11 years. It shouldn't be looked at in the same light as the separation facilities that we saw back in 2018. It also made it quite clear that all three administrations have done everything they can to skirt more stringent state regulations.

WASHINGTON—The number of unaccompanied immigrant children arrested for crossing the U.S. southern border illegally is on pace to rise more than 50% in February compared with the previous month, people familiar with the matter said, raising the prospect of a humanitarian crisis there.

About 2,200 children have been illegally crossing the border weekly in February, and the pace is picking up as the month progresses, some of the people said. The government is projecting that about 9,000 children will be taken into custody by the end of February.

"Millions of Americans love their insurance and don't want to see it changed." What a rough ridin' joke, that we tolerate this as a country.

There are people, lots of people, who is giving that little girl money for this, but are perfectly okay with the fact that we're in the situation that she has to do it. Why are people okay with it? Because insurance companies pay hundreds of millions of dollars to convince politicians to tell people total bullshit that makes them act against our own interests of keeping our children alive. In 2018 our government spent $14 Billion on Pork projects alone while we have little kids selling lemonade to pay for their own brain surgeries.

I don't see anything showing that her medical services aren't covered by insurance and/or hospital financial assistance to where the family will have to pay anything toward them.  Nothing I see where they're asking for money talks about needing it to have the surgeries.  It's been certain she's having them performed by the best who can do the procedure. 

I don't think any medical insurance or program, private or public, covers supplemental costs like travel from Alabama to Boston.  As to the lodging, I know that's the purpose of Ronald McDonald Houses and I see there is one right there that works with the Boston Children's Hospital. 

And that may well be what they're doing.  Now that I look at the fundraiser page, I see it's for these costs to keep things going as they were while away:

Quote
As with any medical journey, the overwhelming additional expenses, time away from work, and additional resources needed to keep up with things at home is already piling up. The next year will require a tremendous commitment of our family, our business, and anyone who is willing to join in this journey with us. As a single mom to two amazing gifts from God, it is taking a village to care for Liza, my 3 year old little boy, Finnley, our puppy Millie, and our home.

This is the stuff that supplemental insurance like you see in the aflac ads covers.

From a fundraising perspective, it certainly is smart to let it be framed as selling lemonade to pay for the brain surgeries.  But this isn't the smoking gun as to american healthcare and insurance.

Yeah, given this info, the video definitely misframed the situation.

The video said the money would help with medical expenses. Nevertheless, travel expenses, incurred for non elective procedures, should be covered by insurance as well, especially for children. Finding a dog sitter, obviously shouldn't be included. The $300,000 is way more than enough to cover travel expenses. I wonder, as a small business owner, what type of insurance this woman has.

When I see Joe on stage in Arizona and the earpiece tells him to point at the border and say ‘the road ends here’ just like his former boss did, then you’ll have a point.

I can also assure you that any parties from states of interest, intent on entering the U.S. through a porous border are likely to be extremely untrained, using the most obvious and simplistic of methods and undoubtedly leaving behind ample signs of their presence/having been present.

Let us not forgot that the Mexican government doesn't even control the Northern 3rd of their nation, and arguably they don't control over half of their country.

LOL, so rough ridin' dumb.

That predisposes that foreigners conduct terrorist attacks in the United States with great regularity. 

In addition it’s positively LOL’able to laud the Mexican government for their so called ‘intelligence’ given the fact that so much of their state police/military are fully infiltrated by the cartels.   Their former minister of defense just got busted for helping the cartels smuggle millions of pounds of drugs.

The Federal Police has been reorganized multiple times in the last 40 years in an attempt to compartmentalize and limit cartel influence.

2 years ago the former head of the Federal Police got busted for accepting bribes from the cartels.

The cartels track migrants so they can human wave and distract US border patrols and then flood drugs across the border.

Everyone who attempts to cross the border illegally is caught DQ, everybody knows that.

No way any potential terrorist slipped into the country.   

Also trust the Mexican government, only multiple top police and military leaders have been charged with collaborating with the Cartels.

Oh, and the Cartels now use Chinese money brokers to launder their money.   No vested interested on the part of  Chinese intelligence to create a border crisis situation in the United States.

Curious on your take, my understanding is recent rise in illegal immigration is mostly driven by cartels/coyotes advertising it harder due to the change in presidency. There's no real headway on making people want to stay in their respective countries (that's like an extremely hard to do nation building exercise) rather than immigrate. For whatever reason we stopped the asylum seeking while staying in a neighboring country or some specific bilateral agreements on it, which I don't know if that ever really helped. I haven't been tracking too much on just letting more people immigrate which I'd assume is the only other real lever on this.

i don't think the rise is due to advertising or even just normal communication around the regime change.  my understanding (and i admit it is not comprehensive) is that the number apprehended attempting unauthorized entry has been rising since the previous admin started title 42 expulsions, basically closing the border and thus forcing anyone who might otherwise petition or asylum at a port of entry to attempt unauthorized entry and then petition for asylum.

the number of unauthorized entrants that are unaccompanied minors has risen since biden stopped expulsing unaccompanied minors, but it's a considerably smaller number than the overall increase.

biden made a show of ending trump's remain in mexico program, but he kept title 42 in place, which de facto accomplishes the same policy.  i saw a clip with a refugee in ciudad juarez today who mentioned that he and his family were given an asylum appointment for mid august.  in the meantime, they have no option other than to wait in mexico, attempting to survive there for the next five months.  it is no wonder to me that people not given any realistic alternative either choose to cross illegally or send their children alone instead.



i also think that it is unacceptable that two months after taking office, they are still unable to humanely process and accommodate a few thousand unaccompanied minors.

It's possible that he's correct, but more likely that he's completely fabricated the story.

It was debunked by the state department when Trump said it 2 years ago. Conservative legislators know they can just absolutely lie and there will be no repercussions because their constituency, for the most part, care more about culture wars and fear of the other, than the actual truth.

Those of us not interested in racism and are familiar with the northern border have rightly been much more alert to this happening at the northern border, where for most of that border you can just walk in without any fear of resistance at all.

Quote
The libertarian CATO Institute said that from 1975 through 2017, seven people who entered the U.S. illegally from “special interest” countries — states tied at least loosely to terrorism — were convicted of planning attacks on U.S. soil. None crossed from Mexico. They came from Canada or jumped ship in U.S. ports, and all before special interest countries were classified as such. The plots were foiled and no one was hurt.

Quote
The only known terrorists who crossed illegally from Mexico in those decades were three ethnic Albanians from Macedonia who came as children with their parents in 1984 and, in their 20s, were arrested in the foiled plot to attack the Fort Dix, New Jersey, Army base in 2007, the CATO study found. They were not from a special-interest country.

two important points here.  1) most individuals apprehended attempting an unauthorized entry are asylum seekers prevented from presenting their petition at a port of entry, and 2) many attempt repeated unauthorized entry because under title 42 expulsion there is neither an alternative nor a penalty for doing so.

I reject this premise entirely. He works for the CATO Institute so I have to believe he's making the conscious choice to ignore the fact that Biden is dealing with this surge while having to simultaneously reconstruct the legal immigration systems that trump completely ran aground, like asylum application processing. He said Trump was "bad at this too," but that's not telling the story. It's not that trump was bad at it, they essentially just stopped doing them. Of course there are many other points he just doesn't address. He undercut his own thread with the last tweet.

https://twitter.com/David_J_Bier/status/1374838962913738759

His first tweet says Biden is handling the border situation "much worse...than Trump" then finishes the thread by saying that if trump was still in office he would be worse for immigrants. Also his claim that Biden isn't giving more immigrants more rights is ridiculous. There will be a path to citizenship with Biden, there was no chance of that with trump. Biden also isn't having ICE take over local police departments to entrap immigrants who are just trying to live their lives.

Dude should have just said Biden has more accompanied minors locked up than trump did and he needs to come up with a plan to fix it, right now. The rest of his thread was just hoe babble.

It went from deporter in chief to catch and release.   Now it's substantial catch and release except for unaccompanied minors.   

Look up ATD, 'alternative to detention'.

Seriously?

Also, I think the Mormon Missionary program makes Utah much more sympathetic to immigrants than the broader population.

I really like the application of this quote here. It fits because Mormans are unquestionably more seriously religious than other conservatives. I also wonder if many conservatives have any motivation at all to do anything outside their perceived own self interest in general when they ignore Christianity.

Christianity in America is a tricky thing because it’s so entrenched in the political system that people can mean completely different things when talking about Christian principles. Some aren’t referring to religion at all but rather extremely old American social policies and traditions.

Congratulations again to the cartels and the human traffickers.

Because this administration cannot control the border and because the majority of migrants know they're not going to be sent back, the BP has had to surge resources from other sectors to Del Rio and hundreds of miles of the border are either not staffed or understaffed.

So again, congrats to the cartels, the human traffickers, the Fentanyl traffickers/makers and the people who launder the cartels money.

Yes, the Border Patrol were attacking these people while on horseback and whipping grown men with horse reins. I've never been hit with reins but I can't imagine that feels great. At least it doesn't appear as if they are the braided reins.

I wouldn't say he hit the man if I didn't see it. Last night's NBC nightly news had video of one of the border patrolmen hitting a Haitian and it wasn't even this guy in the stills it was a gentleman wearing a yellow shirt. I'm not going to hunt down the video.

We should let them in, why wouldn't we? We have millions of people here who didn't wait at their homes for visas or asylum before coming to America. We have others who overstayed their visas, came on visa categories they didn't fulfill, etc. Our immigration policies and enforcements are largely based on colorism and we should definitely stop that practice.

I accept your word on what you saw. It certainly isn't in the tweet and that's all that I've seen.

No argument with letting them into the country. My ancestors didn't wait in any lines at the border. They were here before the Revolutionary War and kept coming for a few generations. Dumb ass bean farmers from Scotland made the right choice.

My comment about "what to do" is more to the humanitarian aspect.  Our shitty government doesn't do a good job of helping those that are already here.

The Southern border must not be secured (#blueanon)

https://www.businessinsider.com/fragmentation-in-mexico-war-on-drugs-created-400-new-gangs-2021-10

4000% increase in Fentanyl seizures in last 5 months means that thousands upon thousands of pounds are getting through.

Cartels and gangs overwhelm a sector with human trafficking, BP reacts, cartels and gangs exploit the gaps.   

Shadow/dummy corp Chinese entities either manufacture the Fentanyl straight out and traffic it through  the cartels/gangs or they provide all the components for production to the cartels/gangs.   The Chinese government gives a lot of lip service to cracking down, but the shell game drug/chemical companies just exploit lessor controlled shipping routes with lax inspection.

It was back in the early Eighties, at the height of the boat people, and the sailor was hard at work on the carrier Midway, which was patrolling the South China Sea. The sailor, like most American servicemen, was young, smart and fiercely observant. The crew spied on the horizon a leaky little boat - and crammed inside were refugees from Indochina hoping to get to America. The Midway sent a small launch to bring them to the ship, and safety. As the refugees made their way through the choppy seas, one spied the sailor on deck, and stood up and called out to him. He yelled, "Hello, American sailor - Hello, Freedom Man."

A small moment with a big meaning, a moment the sailor, who wrote it in a letter, couldn't get out of his mind. And, when I saw it, neither could I.

Because that's what it has to - it was to be an American in the 1980's; We stood, again, for freedom.

And we're still a beacon, still a magnet for all who must have freedom, for all the Pilgrims from all the lost places who are hurtling through the darkness, toward home.

Lick, picking and choosing his moments to go all 'Merica on us.

Were there 1.7 million (and that's just who was encountered) boat people?    Were the being trafficked by multi-billion dollar cartels who were engaged in pumping hundreds of thosuands of pounds of the most dangerous drugs in the world across our border?  While laundering the cash through the Chinese and buying the components of the most dangerous drugs in the world from them. 

Our point person on the border hasn't even talked to some Central American leaders in months,, and at best is only giving the usual lip service to the root cause of the immigration beyond the fact that this administration in so many words is indicating that the border is open.

Sadly our currently mentally incapacitated President would just prefer the "jump a river" approach to immigration reform.

@sys bot never wants to discuss that, he's just a derp who want open borders.

Secure the border - immigration reform.

#neoconGe sadly loves the cartels and the human/sex traffickers.

Call your congressperson and consider donating to an org (such as Lutheran Immigrant and Refugee Services) that helps resettle refugees. Our country needs to do better than this for these people:

Nearly a year later, the Emiratis continue to fund the housing, plus daily food rations and medicine for thousands in the sprawling, dorm-like compound located in an industrial area south of the capital city. Meanwhile, U.S. officials have refused to process the Afghans who remain there, a procedure that would allow them to enter the United States or be referred to other countries. And indications are that may never happen. The final flight authorized by the U.S. government from the facility departed August 17. The United States ended consular services, according to leaders of private NGOs and the U.S.-based evacuation groups that have continued to monitor the Afghans’ cases.

These groups contend that by quietly shutting the door, the Biden administration is straining relations with a key Middle East ally, adding to a global refugee crisis, and perhaps once again leaving average Afghans with broken promises and dangerous futures.

Among those caught in a holding pattern are 1,000 Special Immigrant Visa applicants and their relatives. These are Afghans who were employed by U.S. military or civilian personnel during the 20-year war. Most of the rest are considered at-risk and eligible for humanitarian parole. They include those with ties to the former Afghan government, employees of Western NGOs, educators, and about 1,700 religious minorities. Nearly all arrived in Abu Dhabi last year aboard privately chartered aircraft after U.S. military evacuations ended August 30, 2021.

i heard an interview a few days back with an american soldier describing his efforts to help a translator who worked with his unit get out of afghanistan and immigrate to the u.s and the roadblocks and indifference with which both the translator's efforts to escape were treated and the same indifference and roadblocks which the soldier faced when he tried to expedite the process.

i already knew it was bad, but the description was even worse than i expected.

For those who don't know, the people who actually live on Martha's Vineyard and the cape are not the rich people who vacation there and leave in late August. DeSantis is an elite who attended Harvard and Yale, he absolutely knows the rich people are gone and he shipped those migrants to a bunch of people who work in hospitality and fishing.

Some republicans are pointing out that Biden has also shipped migrants across the country, as if that makes it okay. It's ghoulish behavior regardless of what party is doing it.

What's also fascinating is #blueanon/#blueanongE's unyielding belief that every migrant is coming to America to clean our toilets and do the hard labor.  Keep up the delusion fellas  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:  (one could even consider the delusion a form of stealth racism).

They might have been! If you want to argue that we should improve the detention facilities of asylum seekers, I won't stand in your way.

But there are indications that these were asylum seekers from Venezuela and could have serious implications on their status in addition to the demented practice of using humans as props for political stunts.

Quote
CBS News immigration reporter Camilo Montoya-Galvez notes that, unlike the other cities Republican governors have chosen as destinations for migrants, Martha's Vineyard is not an urban, metropolitan area with a robust social services infrastructure: There are no large refugee or migrant services organizations on the island. There's no Justice Department immigration court where the migrants can attend asylum hearings. There's no ICE field office where migrants can check in. As it hasn't been a top destination for recent arrivals, the flights will also raise questions about whether all the migrants transported there on Wednesday knew where they were going.

I'm sure I'll regret asking this but, who are you talking about here? NYC, DC, and Chicago have taken the migrants and dealt with it. Martha's Vineyard is not a "sanctuary city" but the people still aren't complaining. DeSantis could have easily sent those people to Boston where there are far more resources to take care of them but he knew full well that partisans would excuse this stunt, and sending them to Martha's Vineyard was absolutely a stunt, that cost his taxpayers money.

I shouldn't be surprised that conservatives aren't roundly denouncing sending these migrants to Martha's Vineyard, but here I am. I'm the fool, I guess.

I didn't say Florida had border towns and should have been more clear on that one. And maybe Desantis was just jealous of the press Abbott was getting?  I do think it's wrong BUT also think it will have a positive impact on what happens moving forward.

I can take the flip side and say that maybe it is better that they are sent to a sanctuary city compared to staying south.  Maybe better living conditions?  More opportunity?

Well, Abbott is doing it to fire up conservatives and make a national name for himself, but if the immigrants are agreeing to get on the bus to NYC, then I really don't have a problem with it. If they are getting bussed away against their will when they actually have family in Texas, then that is completely different.

The Florida thing is a whole lot worse because I really doubt these immigrants are agreeing to get flown to Martha's Vineyard, where they don't even have transportation to their required court appearances.

If the interest was putting the migrants in better situations, you'd think these governors would coordinate with the local authorities they are being shipped to so they can be set up with resources. Almost all of these have been happening when the migrants arrive at random places in these cities in the middle of the night. I just watched a clip on Fox News about two bus loads of migrants dropped in front of Kamala Harris' brownstone in the middle of the night. The anchors even thought this was funny.

Conservatives have NIMBY trending on Twitter. I was unaware until today, but it's a popular take to call people NIMBYs who take exception to how these migrants are being treated.

This is all so mumped and not only is half of the population okay with it but they think it's appropriate troll bait. Politicians using human beings for clout on social media. We're truly mumped.

No, nothing at all will end up getting done. Maybe the democrats manage to keep the house and gain senate seats and I end up getting proven wrong, but I really don't think Biden has any interest in softening our immigration policy. And any potential change from the republicans would be to make things worse for immigrants than they already are.

If we're going to play a game of compare and contrast, I can say that at least the Biden administration contacts the government officials in advance and get social services set up. Abbott appears to make two calls, one to the charter company and a second to Fox News so they can have their cameras at the arrival spot.

You keep wanting us to affirm the countries immigration policies are inhumane, I think we all agree on that.

If the interest was putting the migrants in better situations, you'd think these governors would coordinate with the local authorities they are being shipped to so they can be set up with resources. Almost all of these have been happening when the migrants arrive at random places in these cities in the middle of the night. I just watched a clip on Fox News about two bus loads of migrants dropped in front of Kamala Harris' brownstone in the middle of the night. The anchors even thought this was funny.

Conservatives have NIMBY trending on Twitter. I was unaware until today, but it's a popular take to call people NIMBYs who take exception to how these migrants are being treated.

This is all so mumped and not only is half of the population okay with it but they think it's appropriate troll bait. Politicians using human beings for clout on social media. We're truly mumped.

Of course it would be better if there was better communication but you can't honestly just blame the pubs. Do you think the dems have done a good job of putting migrants in a better situation?  And if so, how?

Well, Abbott is doing it to fire up conservatives and make a national name for himself, but if the immigrants are agreeing to get on the bus to NYC, then I really don't have a problem with it. If they are getting bussed away against their will when they actually have family in Texas, then that is completely different.

The Florida thing is a whole lot worse because I really doubt these immigrants are agreeing to get flown to Martha's Vineyard, where they don't even have transportation to their required court appearances.
I think many are saying in interviews they were straight up lied to.

I'm glad we all agree on the inhumane conditions on the border.  It's like some people on here (mcat) want to make the border to be like some Shangri-La where people get processed so quickly and then assimilate and are happy?

Then, why does it take these assholes (pubs) to do these stunts to make something happen?  We've had this issue for a damn long time. Blame Fox News all you want.  Also blame CNN and MNSBC for not covering it better.

This meme pisses me off, honestly this whole thing has me as angry as I've been in a really long time.

These people in Martha's Vineyard are being mocked for doing absolutely nothing but living in Martha's Vineyard. Abbott and/or DeSantis sent the migrants up there, without advanced notice, and all those people have been nothing but open and accommodating to the migrants. The thanks they've gotten for being welcoming and accommodating Americans is mockery from the right. They picked Martha's Vineyard because they were convinced the people weren't going to be welcoming, they were wrong but couldn't stop with the dipshit memes.

We literally have the worst about America, mocking the best of America. These people who represent everything we abhor are wrapping themselves in our flag wielding the Bible shitting on people for being good and decent humans.

It's a rough ridin' embarrassment, nic. Instead of sharing these shitposts we should be shaming the people sharing them. Take our country back from these pieces of crap, let them know this isn't us, it isn't acceptable.

I have no rough ridin' time at all, not a second, for anyone who doesn't find what those governor's did abhorrent, and those who are finding entertainment from it. There was a three year old on that plane. I saw one of the men say they weren't even told where they were going.

It's really bad but it seems like officials back then were being honest and doing what they could to process asylum seekers as quickly as possible, and there is nothing that seems like people are being used as a publicity stunt other than flying migrants home to Haiti to discourage more from coming. Which is definitely pretty bad but also should be obvious why it wasn't as big a story as sending them to Martha's Vineyard or Kamala's brownstone.

#blueanon DNGAF about this. As long as there’s super triggered screeds to write as yet another #blueanon enclave gets rightfully mocked for having a meltdown over migrants.  When it’s shown that all of their talk about sanctuary status was nothing more than virtue signaling bullshit.

Karen did you see we’re a sanctuary city now? Egads I hope they never come our way. BTW are we still going for cocktail’s over at Larry’s (David) Saturday?  Do you think Barrack and Michelle will be there?  What? They’re in Hawaii? Why?  Did they ever get their mega heating fuel tank installed?  Yes? . . . good good, now we can get one, screw the town board.  What’s good for the Obama’s is good for us.

I digress

Best to sit back and watch Joe’s junta ship migrants all over the country (other places, mainly red, not our way) or kickback in front of the OLED and watch Texas, NM and Arizona deal with the onslaught - the drug traffickers, human traffickers and sex traffickers. 

Applaud the sheriff in Texas for going after DeSantis based on no laws he can conjure up.  The same sheriff who rode on President Mumbles campaign bus all around Texas, who just happens to preside over a county that’s a hot bed of immigrant sex trafficking.

I was thinking about sys when watching this last night. I find it fascinating how much you seem to detest progressives event though they align with a policy position that seems very important to you.

yeah, it's kinda odd.

US child poverty more than doubled in 2022, the largest recorded one-year increase, as pandemic-era social safety net expansions expired and living costs rose.

The share of individuals under age 18 living in households below the federal poverty threshold rose from a record low of 5.2 per cent in 2021 to 12.4 per cent in 2022, the Census Bureau said on Tuesday.

Overall poverty rates also increased for the first time since 2010, jumping from 7.8 per cent in 2021 to 12.4 in 2022.

The White House Council of Economic Advisers said last week that it expects child poverty rates to rise, with families left vulnerable to inflation from the expiration of the expanded child tax credit.

-Financial Times

We took a good hard look behind the curtain of what a real pro-family welfare state could look like (even if both of the programs had major flaws) with no means testing for free school lunch for kids, an expanded child tax credit and we just let it slip away.

Yeah, it's something. Doing that while ignoring the half of a continent between the United States and Venezuela is certainly a choice.

Texas is in the process of passing a law to require Texas, apart from federal law, to enforce new immigration laws and deport people. Can someone explain to me how this is Constitutional? It's right there in the original Constitution (Article I). This is exclusively federal domain. Texas just DNGAF.

sys is an engima.  Joyfully calling for the relentless bombing of ethnic people, and yet refusing to secure our own border.   :thumbsup:

Yeah, I am voting for him and hoping he dies. Not sure if Kamala will be better, but don't see how she could be worse here.

Oh I am quite confident she would do worse. Imagine Biden but without an agenda, a mandate or any of the residual charm or political capital to accomplish anything and Republicans even more determined to obstruct everything.

Imagine believing this administration is truly going to follow through with any real removals on anything resembling scale.

This is nothing more (or less) than an excercise in saying yes to evertything in order to continue to finance the greatest grift in world history OKA Ukraine

By next summer there will be hearings where the usuals go to the hill to be grilled by the uni-party, and nothing will have changed, there will be no real removal efforts of any kind and the onslaught on the border will have continued the entire time. 

This makes sys and some others absolutely  :lol: in their protestations

Again, here's a dude who has no problem with perpetual war across the globe where thousands upon thousands of ethnic people are slaughtered, but he wants a free-for-all at the U.S. borders.  It's complete whack-a-doo world

still possible that republicans will take the win, but at the time of the 2020 election, i would not have predicted this outcome in a million guesses.

Doesn't the bill include funding Ukraine? Maybe Putin won't let them take the win?

Good. But they’ll sadly cave and keep funding the UkroGrift
